This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I can always be loved by somebody else you know
I will always be right
I don't know what you've been told
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need anyone
Let alone someone like you
I was always up front
Not my fault if you're confused
I don't need to be here, at all
But if you want to stay it's your call
And now you're looking at me
Like something else is due
But I got somewhere to be
I guess I'll see you soon
I don't wanna be free
I don't wanna be with you
There's a difference you see
But I guess it's lost on you
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need a reason at all
And now you're looking at me
Like something else is due
But I got somewhere to be
I hope I'll see you soon
Silence wakes me up
That's why I dialled your number
I can only sleep to the sound of thunder
Where are you my sweet
Oh are you with another?
He will break your heart
You should be smart
Come over
You are so replaceable
Are you still awake?
And now you're looking at me
Like nothing else is due
But I got nowhere to be
I just wanna be with you
I will always be right
I don't know what you've been told
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need anyone
Let alone someone like you
I was always up front
Not my fault if you're confused
I don't need to be here, at all
But if you want to stay it's your call
And now you're looking at me
Like something else is due
But I got somewhere to be
I guess I'll see you soon
I don't wanna be free
I don't wanna be with you
There's a difference you see
But I guess it's lost on you
I don't need a reason at all
I don't need a reason at all
And now you're looking at me
Like something else is due
But I got somewhere to be
I hope I'll see you soon
Silence wakes me up
That's why I dialled your number
I can only sleep to the sound of thunder
Where are you my sweet
Oh are you with another?
He will break your heart
You should be smart
Come over
You are so replaceable
Are you still awake?
And now you're looking at me
Like nothing else is due
But I got nowhere to be
I just wanna be with you

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.
Barring this being a pop-culture or movie inspired song, it sounds like two people in a deeply dysfunctional, very codependent, and manipulative relationship.It is hard to tell who is saying what, but it seems like they each enjoy berating and minimizing each other. Just my 2 cents.
