The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
In many words, still can't compare with one phrase.
qian yan wan yu, di bu guo yi ju hua
Repeatedly, unable to hold a grain of sand.
fan fan fu fu, wo bu zhu yi li sha
The expression in my eyes is different from others.
wo de yan shen he bie ren bu yi yang
If you understand, please don't go.
ru guo ni dong, qing ni bie zou
On the streets, in the sea, I'll still follow.
da jie shang, da hai zhong, wo dou gen cong
How to laugh, how to suffer, experience it together.
ze me xiao, ze me tong, yi qi gan shou
Want to be love, want to be dote, I accept them all.
yao duo ai, yao duo chong, quan bu jie shou
But I just don't see your gentleness.
jiu shi bu jian ni de wen rou
Not every love song has beautiful memories.
bu shi mei ge lian qu dou you mei hao hui yi
End of sadness, it'll be separate ways.
yong wan shang xin, zhi you fen li
Not every sincere heart will be appreciated, even though I love you so much.
bu shi mei ge zhen xin, dou hui you ren zhen xi, na pa xiang wo ru ci ai ni
Not every love song has beautiful memories.
bu shi mei ge lian qu dou you mei hao hui yi
It's you who said you want me to be with you till the end.
shi ni shuo guo yao wo pei ni dao di
True or false, treat it like a dream.
zhen zhen jia jia, dang ta meng yi chang
True or false, better to forget it.
zhen zhen jia jia, hai shi wang liao ba
qian yan wan yu, di bu guo yi ju hua
Repeatedly, unable to hold a grain of sand.
fan fan fu fu, wo bu zhu yi li sha
The expression in my eyes is different from others.
wo de yan shen he bie ren bu yi yang

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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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
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.
