Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Miles above your circumstance there's water on your mind
I've wrestled with convictions and I've settled with the tide
It's more or less uncertainty but still you play the game
A pedicure won't change the score, but all of this will fade
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)
Take a bath with consecrated water from the shrine
And wash away the mud of all the miles you've left behind
Triplicates and wedding rings both lethal to obtain
So batten down the credit cards, the devil's in the den
So low, better get on,
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)
So low, better get on,
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)
I've wrestled with convictions and I've settled with the tide
It's more or less uncertainty but still you play the game
A pedicure won't change the score, but all of this will fade
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)
Take a bath with consecrated water from the shrine
And wash away the mud of all the miles you've left behind
Triplicates and wedding rings both lethal to obtain
So batten down the credit cards, the devil's in the den
So low, better get on,
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)
So low, better get on,
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down)
So low, better get on
Everything's stopped (down)
So slow, better get on
Everything's slowed (down, down)

@[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.

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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Amazing song, best on Shangri-La Dee Da in my opinion. Definitely seems to be Scott talking about facing his addiction and trying to put it in the past and move on. I would bet the "lonely room" he is referring to is being in jail...cuz he was locked up for awhile before this album came out.
