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.
17 and running up the stairs my baby bear
7 lonely hours that I’ve been without a shower
Until
You and I meet in the bathroom with the water on
Steaming up the room with little but a towel on
You are my high
You are my high just like
A joint or two just hangin out the window in September on the 28th I’ll be dethroned and sent to clean up my act
4 months in a penitentiary where I can read and think I’ll make it home
Everything I said last night when we were in the car
Telling you I knew I knew I knew that we would make it far
Everyone in this town will see
Someone like you could be with someone like me
Even fairy tale characters would jealous
7 lonely hours that I’ve been without a shower
Until
You and I meet in the bathroom with the water on
Steaming up the room with little but a towel on
You are my high
You are my high just like
A joint or two just hangin out the window in September on the 28th I’ll be dethroned and sent to clean up my act
4 months in a penitentiary where I can read and think I’ll make it home
Everything I said last night when we were in the car
Telling you I knew I knew I knew that we would make it far
Everyone in this town will see
Someone like you could be with someone like me
Even fairy tale characters would jealous

Little Feat
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”

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” 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.
American Town

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
this song never ceases to get me. everyone wants a love like that.
I love this song. I want to have soemthing like this one day this is pure teenage innocence
This is song is beautiful. Even fairytale characters would be jealous= genius. I think this song is about the first teenage love and romance and how its the best thing ever and nothing could be better, no matter what other people say. This song is genius i think.

YOU ARE ALL WRONG...DAN HUNTER WENT TO REHAB ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO AND FOUND GOD...THIS HAS NOTHING TO TO WITH SEX OR ANYTHING.WHEN HE STATES "WHERE I CAN READ" HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE BIBLE.YES..DAN HUNTER LOVES GOD AND TYPICALLY MOST OF HIS SONGS ARE ABOUT THE LORD.
Actually all of you are right because yes he went to rehab, but this song is also about Madi. He says for the longest time she didnt even know this song was about her. he liked her, but she told him she would neverdate someone younger than her, but after he went to rehab they started to hang out and eventually started a realtionship
"and you are my high" hes magical :D haha
This song is one of his most amazing songs :) Its meaning is absolutely beautiful. Real teenage love.
