Take back, prone to distract
You never look the same
Where's your feedback?
You want to break me
Are you dead now?
You want to see it
I'll bring you down

Burn and bleed and refill the cage
Watch the weary wasting away

When I lost my dignity
I closed my eyes
To keep my sanity
Need me, want to bleed me
You want to break me down
But you can't conceive me
I hate your life away
But I can feel the pain
Choke the beast not be the prey
For another day

Burn and bleed and refill the cage
Watch the weary wasting away

Take off the edge
Replace with disgrace
You'll never see nothing rotting in place
Rot away

Run away!
Run away!

Hating and breaking
While leading the way
The wolves will all gather
As we are the prey
Our steps all grow closer
As we come around

Now ring the bell, we're going down
Bring all sides in

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”

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
