The price leaves me
Feeling empty
A rusted inside
A broken frown

The clock is real, make a deal, missing another hand
The time is now and the payment is my sin
You think it's over?
I've come to far to back down now
You think it's over?
My time to rise above you

It's time to rise above you
We've come
(We've)
Full Circle!

It's time to rise above you
My time to rise above you

When I dream
I breathe easy
I'm perfect ending
I'm perfect now
No remorse
(No remorse)
No regrets
(No regrets)

Ain't got time for this simple minded bullshit
You think it's over?
I've come to far to back down now
You think it's over?

My time to rise above you
It's time to rise above you

We've come
(We've come)
Full Circle!
It's time to rise above you
My time to rise above you
My life
A crown of thorns
(Crown of thorns)
My life
An open door
Yeah!
(You think it's over)

You think it's over!
I've come to far to back down now
You think it's over!

My time to rise above you
It's time to rise above you

We've come
(We've come)
Full Circle!
It's time to rise above you
My time to rise above you
Rise above you
Rise!
Rise above you!
Rise! Rise!
Rise above you!
Rise above you!

    I think this song is about how the band has come full circle and while being the same band are now a completely different band in itself. People think the band is over after all the things holding the band back in the music world and they believe it's time to rise up out of the ashes of the past to show that they're not a one hit wonder or just another band to be overlooked.

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.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
