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.
Yeah, yeah oh
I'm hungry, yeah
I said I'm starving, yeah
I want some pizza, coke and ice cream
Popcorn, cotton candy, marshmallows, milkshake and peanuts would be so great
Pies chips candy apples, twinkies, frosted flakes
Donuts french fries and some chocolate cake with mustard
Cookies, avocados, pancakes, pineapple juice
Whipped cream on some raw meat
That's not all I could
Eat
I'm hungry
I want some food for my tum
I want some honey roasted walnuts
Pepperoni slices, pasta and burritos
Different kinds of rices
Cherries dipped in chocolate, cottage cheese and jelly
Colonel sander's chicken, still won't fill my belly
Broccoli sticky syrup, churros dipped in sauce
Drippy sloppy joes
Then I'm full at last
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm full at last
And I'm full at, I'm really really full at
And I'm full at last
I'm full at, I'm really really full at
I'm full at last
And I'm full at, I'm really really full at
I'm full at last
Oh
I'm hungry, yeah
I said I'm starving, yeah
I want some pizza, coke and ice cream
Popcorn, cotton candy, marshmallows, milkshake and peanuts would be so great
Pies chips candy apples, twinkies, frosted flakes
Donuts french fries and some chocolate cake with mustard
Cookies, avocados, pancakes, pineapple juice
Whipped cream on some raw meat
That's not all I could
Eat
I'm hungry
I want some food for my tum
I want some honey roasted walnuts
Pepperoni slices, pasta and burritos
Different kinds of rices
Cherries dipped in chocolate, cottage cheese and jelly
Colonel sander's chicken, still won't fill my belly
Broccoli sticky syrup, churros dipped in sauce
Drippy sloppy joes
Then I'm full at last
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, I'm full at last
And I'm full at, I'm really really full at
And I'm full at last
I'm full at, I'm really really full at
I'm full at last
And I'm full at, I'm really really full at
I'm full at last
Oh

@[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.

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.
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.
I love this song. Its so fun to try and sing along to. Its just a fun n up beat song.
