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”
When I'm looking for the perfect things
Some fantasies, they save me with the grace
It's a precious land
All around you little things are shining like they are one
(Are we sisters?)
When I'm looking for the perfect things
I stand up and put on another face
You're all exploring all you see, you should live everything
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
I'm waking up in a good day
So happy walking into the sun
See you are living, all you are in your eyes
Is there an end?
Trust sister, time sister
I really want you see me the way
I am the way
I am the way I am
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Some fantasies, they save me with the grace
It's a precious land
All around you little things are shining like they are one
(Are we sisters?)
When I'm looking for the perfect things
I stand up and put on another face
You're all exploring all you see, you should live everything
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
I'm waking up in a good day
So happy walking into the sun
See you are living, all you are in your eyes
Is there an end?
Trust sister, time sister
I really want you see me the way
I am the way
I am the way I am
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot
Perspiring deeply watching these fears
As big as planets and I'm hot and I'm hot

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.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
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.
