@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
eleven eleven said the clock as i pulled it around
the foreign days and understanding
a way out would be nice,
i'll have your good advice
went up the block
making the scream 12 after
some days the walls look greener
(cause they can fetch a dime)
hung, unsafe for days you can't be weaker waiting
and even if bugs turn into people who ask
'are you all right?'
say yes and smile
it's now the outcome of every day,
weaker days await.
even if the bugs turn to people who ask
'are you all right?
just say yes and smile
you've found the outcome of every day
weaker days await
some days the wall look greener
(cause they can fetch a dime)
hung, unsafe for days you can't be weaker waiting
even if the bugs turn to people who ask
'are you all right?'
just say yes and smile
you've found the outcome of every day
weaker days await
the foreign days and understanding
a way out would be nice,
i'll have your good advice
went up the block
making the scream 12 after
some days the walls look greener
(cause they can fetch a dime)
hung, unsafe for days you can't be weaker waiting
and even if bugs turn into people who ask
'are you all right?'
say yes and smile
it's now the outcome of every day,
weaker days await.
even if the bugs turn to people who ask
'are you all right?
just say yes and smile
you've found the outcome of every day
weaker days await
some days the wall look greener
(cause they can fetch a dime)

you've found the outcome of every day
weaker days await

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This song had 2 names, 11:11 and Weak Week. This is what I have translated so far,
"eleven eleven set the clock at the pool fade away from foreign days and understanding a way out would be nice, ill have your good advice with up the block taking the train 12 after some days the walls look greener ? ? ? ? [2 people singing] Fuckin sicker days can seem weaker WAITING and even if bugs turn into people to ask if youre all right say yes and smile now the outcome of everyday, weaker days await even if the bugs turn to people to ask are you all right say yes and smile now the outcome of everyday weaker days await. some days the walls look greener God, ??? [2 people again] fuckin sicker days can seem weaker, WAITING even if the bugs turn to people to ask if youre all right say yes and smile now the outcome of everyday weaker days await."
I can't make out what they say when i think it's Matt and Dan singing, but il keep plugging away at it.
