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'm swimming all around in confusion
It takes me for a ride
Hearing the bells they're ringing
I think I'll run and hide
It's crazy what you seem to do
Every now and then
It's crazy what you seem to do
When you're wasting the people
And you don't even care
Well
It might be you It might be me
Dealing with mentality
I'm Blown Away
Hearing the bells they're ringing
When I try to sleep
Fearing the evil minded
That prey upon the weak
Well I think about the Boogie Man
Every now and then
Well I think about the Boogie Man
Whose coming through my door right now
It doesn't have to be that way
We can be free if you want to
It doesn't have to be that way
We can be one if you want to
Every time I look around
I think
Is there someone staring down at me
Everytime I look around
I thank
The God above for making me the man that I am
It feels like
It's foolish everywhere
It seems like
It's crucial everywhere
I never thought I could be stapled
By the metal in the gun
I never thought I could be stippled
By the metal in the gun
It might be you
It might be me
It might be you
I'm Blown Away
I'm Blown Away
It might be you
It might be you
It might be you
I'm Blown
Away
It takes me for a ride
Hearing the bells they're ringing
I think I'll run and hide
It's crazy what you seem to do
Every now and then
It's crazy what you seem to do
When you're wasting the people
And you don't even care
Well
It might be you It might be me
Dealing with mentality
I'm Blown Away
Hearing the bells they're ringing
When I try to sleep
Fearing the evil minded
That prey upon the weak
Well I think about the Boogie Man
Every now and then
Well I think about the Boogie Man
Whose coming through my door right now
It doesn't have to be that way
We can be free if you want to
It doesn't have to be that way
We can be one if you want to
Every time I look around
I think
Is there someone staring down at me
Everytime I look around
I thank
The God above for making me the man that I am
It feels like
It's foolish everywhere
It seems like
It's crucial everywhere
I never thought I could be stapled
By the metal in the gun
I never thought I could be stippled
By the metal in the gun
It might be you
It might be me
It might be you
I'm Blown Away
I'm Blown Away
It might be you
It might be you
It might be you
I'm Blown
Away

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.

Page

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.
I love this song. I believe its about his struggle with comprehending how God works. Or something
