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.
I don't wanna go there
I don't wanna go there anymore
I don't wanna go there
I don't wanna go there anymore
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
You're the one who told me
You're the one who told me what to say
Would you come and hold me
Would you come and show me right away
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
I don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it anymore
Can you help me face
Help me 'fore I run right for the door
And I'm gone, I'm gone
Should I walk alone
Should I take it home, should I tell
It's not gonna go
It's not gonna go well
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
I don't wanna go there anymore
I don't wanna go there
I don't wanna go there anymore
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
You're the one who told me
You're the one who told me what to say
Would you come and hold me
Would you come and show me right away
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
I don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it anymore
Can you help me face
Help me 'fore I run right for the door
And I'm gone, I'm gone
Should I walk alone
Should I take it home, should I tell
It's not gonna go
It's not gonna go well
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
This song, to me is a prayer. Not to a specific God or to any specific religion, but a cry to hope. He is praying to hope as if hope was a person. People lose hope because they walk away from it(Cause I'm gone). The narrator is acknowledges that the world needs hope, and that it is this hope that keeps the world in motion. Hoping for a new day and a better future.
