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”

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
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.
This song (in my humble interpretation), is about how utterly, utterly fucked the human race is - specifically because of consumerism.
We are doomed, for a million reasons, but the obvious one - which Fat Mike and the gang so charmingly point out in this little ditty - WE HAVE NO PLACE TO BURY ALL OF OUR TRASH.
We have been producing, using up, and selling each other junk at an ever-increasing pace for the past few decades, and sooner or later, it's going to reach critical mass.
I shed a tear when I heard this fucking song. It's brilliant.
NOFX is the greatest stupid, talentless group of drugged-up retards ever to record bad watered down punk music ever. Ever.
Well said dude. This song really does go surprisingly deep. Such a great band.
