This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I wrote this story so many days ago, and the words kept falling onto pages.
Without the loss we can't go on, and with the loss we became strong.
It's how it is, as we stare it down.
Oh my god do I think that this is the end of everything.
When everything inside wants me to feel like this is normal.
And in the quiet, the silence screams aloud. And the panic resides along our inners.
And with the tragedy we go, pushing the hell so far below.
Desperate hands cover my face.
So stay calm this way in case weâ??re needed for emergency.
And if we are weâ??ll be prepared for action.
This is how it's supposed to be.
This is how it's supposed to be.
Somebody better call a doctor.
Somebody call a doctor!
And maybe this could be the end of everything that we want. Don't panic.
And from a distance it seems that the water will wash panic away.
Oh my lord, believe.
Thereâ??s no need for emergency, but in case there is, distract it.
This is how it's supposed to be.
This is how it's supposed to be!
Somebody better call a doctor!
And maybe this could be the end of everything that we want. Don't panic.
And from a distance it seems that the water will wash panic away.
The water will wash panic away.
If this is the great descent, I wonâ??t be
Running for the exits
Running for the exits

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”
Holiday

@[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.
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
My opinion seems to agree with some of the others that posted .... to me it is all about losing someone close to you ... he talks about how losing someone brings your other close friends and family or whatever closer and makes you stronger after going through it... and also that when he says "its how it is, as we stare it down" its just one of the things in life that you cant really do shit about, it just happened and you have to deal with it. After that it explains how you try to act like nothings happening (like its all normal and what not) in "when everything inside wants me to feel like this is normal" although it isnt and he explains how crazy it really feels .... thereafter he explains "and from a distance it seems that he water will wash the panic away" meaning after lots of time passes you do go back to normal. It is not the same normal, it will always be different, but you will get back to some sort of norm that is not crazy like you felt immediately after.
It's about the end of the world meaning humans have gotten complacent and all of mans creations will fail and since we made this mess of a world ourselves theres no need to run for the exits cause its everywhere so stay calm and call a doctor
