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.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Come on, tell me that you're better
And you rather just forget that
Things have gone so far
Yeah, tell me that you're better
And you'd rather just forget that
Things have gone too far
You're all I see, sink into me
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me
Sink in to me (sink in, sink in)
Well, I'd like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I'd like to see you have your way
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
Come on and have your way with me
Now tell me that you're better
And you rather just forget that
Things have gone so far
You tell me that you're better
And you'd rather just forget that
Yeah, things have gone too far
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're all I see, sink into me
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me
Sink in to me (sink in, sink in)
Well, I'd like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I'd like to see you have your way
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
Come on and have your way with me
Come on and have your way with me
I'd like to be a note
The kind you could sing
But don't because you're shy
That way I'll live inside your throat
And hang from every word you spoke
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're all I see, sink into me (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Sink into me (sink in, sink in)
I'd like to see you have your way
Come on, have your way with me
(And hang from every word you spoke)
I'd like to see you have your way
(Correct each stutter, every slur)
Come on, have your way with me
(Sink into me)
Come on, tell me that you're better
And you rather just forget that
Things have gone so far
Yeah, tell me that you're better
And you'd rather just forget that
Things have gone too far
You're all I see, sink into me
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me
Sink in to me (sink in, sink in)
Well, I'd like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I'd like to see you have your way
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
Come on and have your way with me
Now tell me that you're better
And you rather just forget that
Things have gone so far
You tell me that you're better
And you'd rather just forget that
Yeah, things have gone too far
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're all I see, sink into me
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me
Sink in to me (sink in, sink in)
Well, I'd like to see our roles reversed
To watch you hang on every word
I'd like to see you have your way
I keep my grammar well rehearsed
Correct each stutter, every slur
Come on and have your way with me
Come on and have your way with me
I'd like to be a note
The kind you could sing
But don't because you're shy
That way I'll live inside your throat
And hang from every word you spoke
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're all I see, sink into me (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Sharpen your teeth, sink into me (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Sink into me (sink in, sink in)
I'd like to see you have your way
Come on, have your way with me
(And hang from every word you spoke)
I'd like to see you have your way
(Correct each stutter, every slur)
Come on, have your way with me
(Sink into me)

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

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.

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.
ok the songs different, but i wouldn't say its the worse song they have. I think its actually pretty good, it shows how Adam's progressed as a person as well as an artist.
