You know you really were the bomb
Atomic infamy
You really have to display information
To discover relativity
You know you really were the bomb
Atomic infamy
You really have to display information
To discover relativity
You no faker, love and peacemaker
Come on take a moment with your enemy

Ahaahaha don't speak cause your mind is amazing
Ahaahaha don't speak cause your mind is amazing

And on the atoll of desire
Battle was fought and won
Who took advantage and who was defenseless
Oh no peppermint girls not done
Remember this emotional equation
Don't test the moment when you break the sun

Ahaahaha don't speak cause your mind is amazing
Ahaahaha don't speak cause your mind is amazing

Dancing you are tearing it up you know
Dancing you are tearing it up you know
Dancing you are tearing it up you know
Dancing you are tearing it up you know

Don't speak cause your mind is amazing
Dancing you are tearing it up you know
Dancing you are tearing it up
Don't speak cause your mind is amazing
Dancing, dancing, dancing"

    When we saw NYPC recently, the lead singer said that this song was about Einstein and his involvement with the development of the atomic bomb, hence lyrics such as:

    "don't speak cause your mind is amazing" "atomic infamy"

    etc.

    But equally I think, like with all good songs, it does have that alternative meaning that allows it to function as a superb pop song.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Amazing
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.
