This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
i could obscure these words with poetry
false maturity
there's no universal truth
no blueprint to help you follow you
it's all up to you
so be proud of what you do
cause it is what it is what it is what it is
when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
i know, i know, i know
and my mind just keeps reeling about this
empty feeling
yeah this thought process seems so endless
like oceans, and oceans, and oceans, and oceans,
and oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it.
pretend like we don't know who each other are
cause that's not far from the truth
but my heart is proof that i want to know
i don't want to let go
but if you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and if you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
i know, i know, i know, i know
i'm sorry about your relationship
but you're making yourself sick
god damn, get over it
it is what it is what it is what it is
and oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it
well maybe we should all just get over it
oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it
false maturity
there's no universal truth
no blueprint to help you follow you
it's all up to you
so be proud of what you do
cause it is what it is what it is what it is
when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
i know, i know, i know
and my mind just keeps reeling about this
empty feeling
yeah this thought process seems so endless
like oceans, and oceans, and oceans, and oceans,
and oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it.
pretend like we don't know who each other are
cause that's not far from the truth
but my heart is proof that i want to know
i don't want to let go
but if you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
and if you have to go i know
and when you have to go i know
i know, i know, i know, i know
i'm sorry about your relationship
but you're making yourself sick
god damn, get over it
it is what it is what it is what it is
and oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it
well maybe we should all just get over it
oh shit, radio killed honesty
like high school popularity
and maybe we should all just get over it

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[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

“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.
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 is one of my favorite songs. it seems like they're trying to get the point across that we shouldn't dwell over the petty things that go on in our lives and deal witht he real issues in the world and also in our lives.
