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”
By the way you brought me here,
It makes believe the best is yet to come and I don't want to leave.
Forgive my hesitation but I'm learning to trust in you.
Help me to dream these dreams because I don't have a clue.
If you'd be honest and say what you mean
You know I would promise I'd do anything
Because I know that without you I'm giving it away.
If this what you wanted?
Cause I'm willing to change.
Now that I'm certain,
There's so much more to gain.
You've introduced me to the moment
But I'm looking to stay for good.
You asked me to stay forever.
Well, you know that I would, I would do anything.
The nights are forever and maybe I'm wrong,
But it feels like I'm so lost without you.
So I step towards the heat, it's the way I can see,
And it makes me believe that it's you.
By the way you brought me here
It makes me believe the best is yet to come
And I don't want to leave, I won't, but anyway
The nights are forever,
I can't get to sleep cause I know there's a reason.
I'm in this too deep
And I'm not sure that without you,
I'm giving it away. Yeah.
Giving it away
It makes believe the best is yet to come and I don't want to leave.
Forgive my hesitation but I'm learning to trust in you.
Help me to dream these dreams because I don't have a clue.
If you'd be honest and say what you mean
You know I would promise I'd do anything
Because I know that without you I'm giving it away.

Giving it away

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
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.
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.
this song is about someone who's in love with a girl and he would do anything to be with her, and he doesn't want to live without her. pretty self explanatory. its a really sweet song... reminds me of jimmy eat world
i remember listening to this song driving to my best friends house. i was going there because i knew our friendship was ending and i just wanted to let her know that i was going to be there if she was. but she wasnt. and this song just meant a lot to me cause i think not only can it be applied to a relationship...but also friendship.
I am listening to this song as i type it out and i feel like this song is about a someone who is totally in love with this other person they would do anything for them and they lye awake at night thinking about them and how empty they feel without them. " if youd be honest and say what you mean, you know i would promise, id do anything" i think there he is telling her to be honest and tell him how she really feels and if she is he will give her all of him. i know exactly how he is feeling....:-/ Mae is SPECTACULAR <3
lyrics dont always come at me at once. i guess and i mean actually taking the situation in hand at the very moment you listen or the many times after you listen. but, just now the meaning of this song really hit me hard.
i love this song, i think its spectacular.
i'm pretty sure this song isn't written to a girl but to God.
i agree totally with dansr, just because i felt the whole relationship with God thing in this song this morning on my way to school, and i totally relate to this song.
i think that the song is about having been given a great blessing, or a problematic blessing--a blessing in disguise, if anything...and this blessing, through all of the trials and tribulations of it, brings you closer to God through faith.
i think the "if you'd be honest..." lines regard the doubt that comes with being a new christian, the beginning of having real faith in the Lord...but despite the hesitance, you're still willing to believe in Him, because that belief gives life meaning.
the "is this what you wanted..." part starts with whatever blessing has been given, and the willingness to accept Jesus in your life, and realizing how good life is once you've accepted Him into your heart.
the "nights are forever..." part, i think that "the night" is an allusion to everything that is unknown, and that God will be the guide to light the path (the heat=the Sun).
that's just my interpretation...i could have been reading into this WAAAY TOO DEEPLY, but, i'm entitled to my opinion.
i can very well understand the interpretation of this song being about god. i can actually see a bunch fo their songs being about god. but whenever i hear this song i always end up thinking about somebody finally letting go and being themselves.
hmm, i never thot about it being about God. i like that idea. mae rocks!
Is this what you wanted? Cause I'm willing to change. Now that I'm certain, That there's much more to gain.
that is the best line. ever.
well, according to me, as of now ;P
Forgive my hesitation but I'm learning to trust in you. ..:) this song helps me living something in my life right now..haha..these excact lyrics are so true for me..:)
