In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Bleed, when you thought you knew
Do you hear me shout?
Bleeding through my ribbon on my eyes (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I take you out
We can always start to havoc death till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I want to fuck you now
We live we are to make you
In turn we know you're going down
But now it's over I'm calmer like crimson
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Now it's over, I'm calmer like crimson.
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Proof, when they tear you up
When they start to fuck
When they start to piss down on my scars (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I stumble down
We can never say that you are gone till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I just can't take no more
The thought of me inside you
Just makes me sick you're going down
But now it's over I'm calmer like crimson
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Now it's over, I'm calmer like crimson.
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Hate, when you thought you knew
Do you hear me shout ?
Bleeding through my ribbon on my eyes (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I take you out
We can always start to havoc death till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I just can't take no more
The thought of me inside you
Just makes me sick you're going down.
These rebel ways to show you
I wanna fuck you now.
We live we are to make you
In turn we know you're going down!
Do you hear me shout?
Bleeding through my ribbon on my eyes (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I take you out
We can always start to havoc death till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I want to fuck you now
We live we are to make you
In turn we know you're going down
But now it's over I'm calmer like crimson
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Now it's over, I'm calmer like crimson.
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Proof, when they tear you up
When they start to fuck
When they start to piss down on my scars (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I stumble down
We can never say that you are gone till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I just can't take no more
The thought of me inside you
Just makes me sick you're going down
But now it's over I'm calmer like crimson
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Now it's over, I'm calmer like crimson.
Throwing down like water, I saw her as she hit the ground
Hate, when you thought you knew
Do you hear me shout ?
Bleeding through my ribbon on my eyes (to come home)
What I'm thinking now
When I take you out
We can always start to havoc death till it comes
These rebel ways to show you
I just can't take no more
The thought of me inside you
Just makes me sick you're going down.
These rebel ways to show you
I wanna fuck you now.
We live we are to make you
In turn we know you're going down!

@[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.

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.
the song is off the everything i hate ep. and you wouldnt understand with those lyrics. i dont know the whole song, but the chorus definitely is 'but now, its over, im calmer.. her crimson flowing down like water. and i dont think its proof.. im pretty sure he says bruised, or bruise, somthin somthin somthin, have i gone to far ? somthin somthin somthin, my fist, your scars, her mouth. just about most of it is wrong best i can tell. but good attempt, obviously i cant do much better. and yeah, br00tal is right. to me its just about his valentine deserving a bullet. i can def. relate
then it goes Hand Of Blood then shes fucked!
