This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
There's a bomb in my face
Decorated in white lace
(Something's wrong, something's wrong)
When people they look at you
Do you think
Do you think of food?
Stretch yourself
(Carving out some lungs with a stake)
as far as this can go at night
(Brontosaurus tracks, relax)
(Carving out some lungs with a stake)
Follow when I row
(Brontosaurus tracks, relax)
Hey, is that your lady?
[Chorus]
She gave it willingly
Hey wait, I've got the parts (To fix your head)
(To fix your head, to fix)
She gave it willingly
(Hey wait, I've got the parts) To fix your head
Fix your head
Fix your head
Wait right here
I'm going to explode
wait right here
I'm exploding
I've got to be in your car
I'm still shooting even par
Stretch yourself
(Carving out some lungs with a stake)
as far as this can go at night
(Brontosaurus tracks, relax)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“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.
I think its about basically hooking up with a whore, and then be confronted by her boyfriend.
There's a bomb in my face, decorated in white lace
There's a pretty girl in front of him, and he knows it won't end well. but he can't escape it
When people they look at you, Do you think do you think of food?
Basically says that the girl thinks everyone's bait for her games
Stretch yourself as far as this can go at night Follow when I row
That's about the actual hookup itself
Hey is that your lady? She gave it willingly hey wait I've got the parts, to fix your head, to fix your head to fix
That's when the guy confronts him, and he's making excuses, saying he didn't know, and that she wanted it and that the guy should chill out
after i read pageweknew's n break down i listened to the song and it made since....love this song
i think its about a girl receiving and giving oral sex and the guy flaunting about it to both her and her boyfriend.
Somethings wrong, Somethings wrong There's a bomb in my face, decorated in white lace Somethings wrong, Somethings wrong
discussing about her you-kno-what and when she's about to explode. the part about seeing people as food refers to her giving oral to other guys
then it talks about her exploding. and streching herself out and how she gave it willingly. makes sense to me :D
I think this song is comparing a woman to an antlion, hence the song title.
"There's a bomb in my face, decorated in white lace" right there he's explaining that she is attractive or seems pleasant, but in reality she's trouble and she conceals it.
"When people they look at you, Do you think do you think of food?" again, this is comparing her to an antlion, "devouring" her victims, when she sees people she seeks to destroy them.
yeah, i'm pretty sure you're right on. i have no idea how some people think its about an eating disorder.
I interpreted it as a guy getting married, being confronted by a guy that his wife was cheating on him with and having then a breakdown.
"Somethings wrong, Somethings wrong There's a bomb in my face, decorated in white lace" White lace being the wedding dress, and her/the marriage being a timebomb until the affair is exposed.
"Stretch yourself as far as this can go at night" Wedding night.
"Hey is that your lady? She gave it willingly" The new wife's bit on the side telling the groom about the affair.
"hey wait I've got the parts, to fix your head, to fix your head to fix your head
wait right here, I'm going to explode wait right here, I'm exploding" The guy having a breakdown.
Could be wrong though, both pageweknew's and Jericho_Reivaj's interpretations make sense too.
real catchy chorus.
I think the songs about a girl with an eating disorder of some sort 1)When people they look at you, Do you think do you think of food?
I also think its about a girl who goes to extreme lenghts to be liked 1)Stretch yourself as far as this can go at night
idk thats just what i think

this may just be me, but i got the impression of maybe a guy walkin in on him with his girlfriend
"hey wait i've got the parts to fix your head" like his head exploded cuz he couldnt belive it? maybe? idk
