Tell me inspector how do you feel?
We know you’re doing all you can
Your quest in life is to catch the one
For this you need to have a plan
And the name is Maurion
About whom is this song
He does things that are wrong
But he does them in the right way

Yeah, he’s a mystery man
Catch him if you can
You’ll need a guiding light
For he only travels by night

Ariba ooh ooh ooh ooh

A criminal is what she may be
It’s time to catch the midnight hour
She has the knack when she commits a crime
To have the beauty of a flower
Yes, she’s a master of crime
Yes, she’s a master of crime
She’s a legend in her own time

Ariba ooh ooh ooh ooh

Tell me inspector how do you sleep
We know you’re doing all you can
Driven mad by trances oh so deep
Your faceless shadow of a man
Yes, he’s a master of crime
Yes, he’s a master of crime
He’s a legend in his own time
Try to catch him if you can

Running around the streets at night in search of Maurion
Inspector Garras of the French police and his trusted servant Fong
Keeping watch from the Eiffel Tower, Tourjours merci et bien
Drinking coffee ’til the early hours in the Cafe Parisienne
It’s after cocktail hour
Only then she feels her power
The only sign left at the scenes of crimes
Is a sweet and scented flower
Yes, she’s a master of crime
Yes, she’s a master of crime
She’s a legend in her own time

Ariba ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ariba ooh ooh ooh ooh

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Magical
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.

Amazing
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
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.
