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.
Sí para conseguir, si al número uno tengo que
Dejar de dolor morir de amor
Sí el precio por tener, fama y fortuna es dejar
De ser lo que quiero ser, no voy
no me importa no brillar para eso ya esta
El sol donde esta
No me importa impresionar para eso esta
El color del mar
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero más si te dejo atrás
Hacía a la anochecer no me escucharas
sí para figurar como una estrella tengo que
Que vivir en la oscuridad no voy
Sí para sobresalir tu quieres que olvide lo que siento
Aléjate de mi no voy
no me importa no brillar para eso ya esta
El sol donde esta
No me importa impresionar para eso esta
El color del mar
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
si no estas en mi casa se pone tan gris
Y aunque tenga dinero de papel tapiz
Aunque tome champagne coma caviar
Y son de codorniz si no estas no me siento feliz
Aunque valla de crucero de Cancún a parís
Y llegue a dormir a casa del décimo quinto rey luis
Tu sabes quien soy tu sabes quien fui y lo que costo
Llegar hasta aquí andaba un mainis no te vallas de mi
yo no quiero oro no quiero plata
Todo lo que ata es lo que te mata
Yo no quiero plata no quiero oro
Quiero tu mirada que es mi tesoro
yo no quiero oro no quiero plata
Todo lo que ata es lo que te mata
Yo no quiero plata no quiero oro
Quiero tu mirada que es mi tesoro
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
Dejar de dolor morir de amor
Sí el precio por tener, fama y fortuna es dejar
De ser lo que quiero ser, no voy
no me importa no brillar para eso ya esta
El sol donde esta
No me importa impresionar para eso esta
El color del mar
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero más si te dejo atrás
Hacía a la anochecer no me escucharas
sí para figurar como una estrella tengo que
Que vivir en la oscuridad no voy
Sí para sobresalir tu quieres que olvide lo que siento
Aléjate de mi no voy
no me importa no brillar para eso ya esta
El sol donde esta
No me importa impresionar para eso esta
El color del mar
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
si no estas en mi casa se pone tan gris
Y aunque tenga dinero de papel tapiz

Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas
no puedo triunfar si no tengo amor
No quiero ganar si hay un perdedor
Ya no quiero mas si te dejo atrás
Hacía la anochecer no me escucharas

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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”
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.

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.
