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”
It's the feel of your blood
As it flows smoothly down my skin
Intoxicating my soul
Immortality, seducing me
Burning in your own hell, which now binds you to me infinitely
Spirits of angels don't weep for you enticing me
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you to drink
Frozen in time is the ice flowing in your veins
Are you insane?
At your mercy they suffered while you sat there painless
Vile and shameless
Crowned you are now for the merciless sins
It's the end
Your beauty through order is where blood flows through you
Where it begins
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you
Vanity blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you to drink
Young life striped down of all it's dignity
Sliced flesh pours out it's youthfulness
My lust will never be fully quenched
Your screams tell me that you're not prepared to die
Creature from hell why can't you see the things I see?
Mirror tells me that you were always meant for me
You are my sacrifice
Blood is the deficit
Biting the flesh, face my sick prelude
Now meet your frozen death
God did not do this
Heated iron bar I will insert inside your cunt
Mistress of cruelty, a name that will not die
You are my sacrifice
Blood is the deficit
Bathing in blood, your heart, your soul, your god
It all belongs to me
God belongs to me
It all belongs to me
Murder is my birthright the bloodline proves aristocracy
Walled in, left for dead, your actions show no hypocrisy
My birthright, is murder
Birthright, murder
Birthright, murder
As it flows smoothly down my skin
Intoxicating my soul
Immortality, seducing me
Burning in your own hell, which now binds you to me infinitely
Spirits of angels don't weep for you enticing me
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you to drink
Frozen in time is the ice flowing in your veins
Are you insane?
At your mercy they suffered while you sat there painless
Vile and shameless
Crowned you are now for the merciless sins
It's the end
Your beauty through order is where blood flows through you
Where it begins
Vanity, blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you
Vanity blood
Left for you to drink
Eternity waits for you to drink
Young life striped down of all it's dignity
Sliced flesh pours out it's youthfulness
My lust will never be fully quenched
Your screams tell me that you're not prepared to die
Creature from hell why can't you see the things I see?
Mirror tells me that you were always meant for me
You are my sacrifice
Blood is the deficit
Biting the flesh, face my sick prelude
Now meet your frozen death
God did not do this
Heated iron bar I will insert inside your cunt
Mistress of cruelty, a name that will not die
You are my sacrifice
Blood is the deficit
Bathing in blood, your heart, your soul, your god
It all belongs to me
God belongs to me
It all belongs to me
Murder is my birthright the bloodline proves aristocracy
Walled in, left for dead, your actions show no hypocrisy
My birthright, is murder
Birthright, murder
Birthright, murder

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
This is about countess bathory who killed over 600 young women and girls, drained them of thier blood and then bathed in it to hopefully prolong her youth. ( evile also wrote a song about this subject- 'bathe in blood')
'Creature from hell why can't you see the things I see? Mirror tells me that you were always meant for me'- she sees herself in the mirror as old and ugly, so bathes in blood to make herself younger
'It's the feel of your blood As it flows smoothly down my skin Intoxicating my soul Immortality, seducing me' - she feels younger and believes she can be immortal by bathing in blood.
'Frozen in time is the ice flowing in your veins Are you insane? At your mercy they suffered while you sat there painless Vile and shameless' - shes almost frozen in time because she keeps getting younger due to the bathing (in her mind anyway)and she is so evil, she has cold blood, almost liek ice, so again, she is 'frozen in time'
'Sliced flesh pours out it's youthfulness' - she brutally murders these women then drains there blood
'My lust will never be fully quenched' - she feels that she must continue to do this forever so that she may stay immmortal.
well, thats what i think this is about. its also one of my favourites from the new album.
