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.
A quick snap and that was it
After we've shared a moment
After I held you tight in my arms
After I told you how beautiful you are
And after I had one too many whiskies and got emotional
You've just experienced the cruel honesty of the Now
A look upon your careless virgin body From the upper balcony and I knew this Silver flawless surface had to be mine
I had a huge confirmation growing in my pants
Pressing me to go on with the said deed.
Driven by a lust close to animal instincts, but since there's no disrespect, this is wrong and I'm sorry
So sorry.
I reacted before any kind of conscience Would pollute the uniqueness of the event.
I can't help it, the sensation too high,
The climax is perfect
After two weeks of legitimate abstinence, It had to be settled somehow
Yeah I heard the rumors too,
The ones stipulating that I've lost my Reason on the account of lust,
I'm afraid I'll have to confirm that
To the proper authorities very soon.
As for you love
Look on the bright side, child
You'll never grow old
So how come to me, you are still so very cold
After we've shared a moment
After I held you tight in my arms
After I told you how beautiful you are
And after I had one too many whiskies and got emotional
You've just experienced the cruel honesty of the Now
A look upon your careless virgin body From the upper balcony and I knew this Silver flawless surface had to be mine
I had a huge confirmation growing in my pants
Pressing me to go on with the said deed.
Driven by a lust close to animal instincts, but since there's no disrespect, this is wrong and I'm sorry
So sorry.
I reacted before any kind of conscience Would pollute the uniqueness of the event.
I can't help it, the sensation too high,
The climax is perfect
After two weeks of legitimate abstinence, It had to be settled somehow
Yeah I heard the rumors too,
The ones stipulating that I've lost my Reason on the account of lust,
I'm afraid I'll have to confirm that
To the proper authorities very soon.
As for you love
Look on the bright side, child
You'll never grow old
So how come to me, you are still so very cold

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
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.
If I am not mistaken, this song is about murdering and then raping a child.
I really love the way it's done in such a blasé, slightly offhand kind of way. I think the lyric "Look on the bright side, child. You'll never grow old" sums this up.
Good lyrics, but equally a bit messed up!
wtf does OASD stand for?
