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.
Life is weighing down on me, killing me inside
Something I could never be will guide me to the new
Light
Frustrated
Sedated
I pray to myself
God please
Don't take away from me
The only fucking thing
That I learned to believe
I am becoming the monster
You promised to keep him away
Now I feel like he's living in me
Anyway, I could never ever be
What you think is right for me
Are things that I will not believe
I want to start a new life
Get myself a sharp knife
Look into my own life
Kill things I don't like in me
But sometimes I feel okay
And think I'm unique
You always try to critique
I turn my back on it anyway
Sucker Punk-ass motherfucker
I am loco
Te falta un poco
To get your ass in a choke-hold
Just kill me, I can't breathe
I am guiding myself right to the end
I can't learn, come to terms
With the sickness that makes me crash and burn
I'm crying, I feel like I am dying but I'm trying
I beg to myself put my pride up on the shelf
Life is not forever
But if life will stay together
I would have a friend in my depression, have an end
But I've been thinking
And thinking always gets me into trouble
But since I have a double personality
I wasn't me you see
Now I'm a refugee
And everything inside of me is just a part of my disease
Just kill me, I can't breathe
I am guiding myself right to the end
I can't learn, come to terms
With the sickness that makes me crash and burn
Just kill me, I can't breathe
I am guiding myself right to the end
I can't learn, come to terms
With the sickness that makes me crash and burn
Something I could never be will guide me to the new
Light
Frustrated
Sedated
I pray to myself
God please
Don't take away from me
The only fucking thing
That I learned to believe
I am becoming the monster
You promised to keep him away
Now I feel like he's living in me
Anyway, I could never ever be
What you think is right for me
Are things that I will not believe
I want to start a new life
Get myself a sharp knife
Look into my own life
Kill things I don't like in me
But sometimes I feel okay
And think I'm unique

Just kill me, I can't breathe
I am guiding myself right to the end
I can't learn, come to terms
With the sickness that makes me crash and burn

Amazing

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.

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.
