Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
The beauty how nights blur,
look twice and tonight she'll bring the cure
and this promise to forgive you
My demons reimburse, think hard
and tonight we'll break the curse
and this promise to forget you.
Bridge:
Tonight oh tonight oh tonight
I can see through a lifetime of wretched demise
and these words can hurt me
Chorus:
We're all in hell
laughing in your misery
the desperate fade to black
and it suits me well.
The lonely the desperate enclosed
is the love I've never sent and
this power to forget you
[Bridge]
[Chorus x2]
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
I know you hurt in this beautiful misery
so read these words and we'll sing
forever waste away [x2]
Free fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
Free fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
[Chorus]
look twice and tonight she'll bring the cure
and this promise to forgive you
My demons reimburse, think hard
and tonight we'll break the curse
and this promise to forget you.
Bridge:
Tonight oh tonight oh tonight
I can see through a lifetime of wretched demise
and these words can hurt me
Chorus:
We're all in hell
laughing in your misery
the desperate fade to black
and it suits me well.
The lonely the desperate enclosed
is the love I've never sent and
this power to forget you
[Bridge]
[Chorus x2]
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
I know you hurt in this beautiful misery
so read these words and we'll sing
forever waste away [x2]
Free fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
Free fall will we waste away?
If we fall will we waste away?
[Chorus]

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.
I think this song's about when you stop caring about life, when you're not suicidal but you're not living because you're dead inside... If that makes sense... It's like making the pain go away by not feeling anything. He's looked back and noticed he's gone too far and had too much pain, and now he's in hell...?
