In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Thanks for the money
Thanks for dancin'
And singin' along
And everything you do
We just want you to know we care
(We care)
Thanks for callin' us sellouts
And not taking a joke
Talkin' shit
Covering us with spit
We're so glad to know you care
(We care)
And we're sorry that so many people
Got to enjoy our music
By hearing us on the radio
We love you
We love you
Because you really understand

Everybody
Sorry to waste
Sung any time like this
We're so lucky to have you there
We care
And I know that some of you get it
And you're not ashamed to admit it
'Cause you're still with us after all
We love you
We love you
Because you really understand
We love you
(We love you)Love you a lot
How could we not
Say it again

Amazing

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.

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 is a lot like the Bauhaus song "Crowds" (weird, I know) People enjoy the music, and the band puts it all out for them, and then they get disrespected for becoming successful.
