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.
Kimi wa oujo
Boku wa meshitsukai
Unmei wakatsu aware na futago
Kimi wo mamoru sono tame naraba
Boku wa aku ni datte natte yaru
Kitai nonaka bokura wa umareta
Shuku fuku suruwa kyoukai no kane
Otona tachi no katte na tsugou de
Bokura no mirai wa futatsu ni saketa
Tatoe sekai no subete ga
Kimi no teki ni narou tomo
Boku ga kimi wo mamoru kara
Kimi wa sokode waratte ite
Kimi wa oujo
Boku wa mesi-tsukai
Unmei wakatsu aware na futago
Kimi wo mamoru sono tame naraba
Boku wa aku ni datte natte yaru
Tonari no kunie dekaketa tokini
Machi de mikaketa midori no anoko
Sono yasashige na koe to egao ni
Hitome de boku wa koi ni ochimasita
Dakedo oujo ga anoko no koto
Kesite hoshii to negau nara
Boku wa sore ni kotae you
Dousite? namida ga tomara-nai
Kimi wa oujo
Boku wa meshitsukai
Unmei wakatsu kuruoshiki futago
"Kyou no oyatsu wa Brioche dayo"
Kimi wa warau mujyaki ni warau
Mousugu kono kuni wa owaru darou
Ikareru kokumin tachi no tede
Korega mukui dato iuno naraba
Boku wa aete soreni sakara-ou
"Hora boku no fuku wo kasite ageru"
"Kore wo kite sugu onige-nasai"
"Daijyoubu bokura wa futago dayo"
"Kitto dare nimo wakara naisa"
Boku wa oujo
Kimi wa toubousha
Unmei wakatsu kanashiki futago
Kimi wo aku dato iuno naraba
Boku datte onaji chiga nagare-teru
Mukashi mukashi aru tokoroni
Akugyaku hidou no oukoku no
Chouten ni kunrin siteta
Totemo KAWAII boku no kyoudai
Tatoe sekai no subete ga
Kimi no teki ni narou tomo
Boku ga kimi wo mamoru kara
Kimi wa dokoka de waratte ite
Kimi wa oujo
Boku wa meshitsukai
Unmei wakatsu aware na futago
Kimi wo mamoru sono tame naraba
Boku wa aku ni datte natte yaru
Boku wa meshitsukai

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.
