I really wish there was a little more going on in the middle; I love the verses, and then I love the "much to be done" outro, but it wanders in the middle
I love it still

You are exactly correct.

I can't get enough of this song. When I go to listen to the album on my ipod, I always seem to play this one first, then start the album all the way through...

Forgot I wrote this, but I literally only meant that both have long, conversational verses that blossom into bombastic, orchestral choruses, then lift off the ground completely in a cathartic final stretch.
Nothing As it Seems is a good song, but it doesn’t do any of that.

The synth line in 7 O'Clock's chorus immediately evoked what I felt was a similar line in the chorus of Comfortably Numb.

I thought it was a nice emotionally resonant thing to add to the conversation about this song; I know they care about the cause(s) of frontline workers, and "much to be done" carries a bit of that

You posted this a while ago, and I agreed with it in general, but wouldn't have known how to explain. This description nails it.
Edit: "a while ago" refers to the original post comparing this to PF a while back.

I'm really enjoying this track. I love the unique chorus method, no repetition. Musically, it's pretty fucking nice.

If you go just off of the YouTube views (the end-all be-all, I know), this is the track that's getting the most daily plays since the album came out. I think it's the most popular track across the fanbase.

This is an epic song, worthy of its central placement on the album. It’s beautiful musically and lyrically. It takes me places, and makes me drift away... 16/9.6

I too find myself most looking forward to this one now. I think this has grown on me the most. Top shelf song, really. One of their best in a long, long time. I am not even sure if there's another song in their catalogue that this can be compared with. This whole part is epic, hair raising stuff:
So held by these thoughts
They refuse to slip away
Hangman in dreamland
About to call your name
