This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Hey! Do you believe there's anything
Beyond troll-guy reality?
I do. I do. I do
It gets so hard, just to be okay
Sometimes being happy, baby
Is what I'm most afraid of
Baby, you know
It gets so hard for me to fight
I don't know why, I guess I never did
Why don't you show me now
How to lose control
She's so very I don't care
She's so very I don't care
Just cause my world, sweet sister
Is so fucking goddamn full of rape
Does that mean my body
Must always be a source of pain?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
She's so very I don't care
She's so very I don't care
Just cause I named it right here, sweet chickadee
Don't mean for a minute you should think
I'm the opposite of anything
But if you want to know for sure, I'll tell you
We're not going to prove nothing, nothing
Sitting around, watching each other starve
What we need is action/strategy
I want, I want, I want, I want
I want it now
I believe in the radical possibilities of pleasure, babe
I do. I do. I do
Beyond troll-guy reality?
I do. I do. I do
It gets so hard, just to be okay
Sometimes being happy, baby
Is what I'm most afraid of
Baby, you know
It gets so hard for me to fight
I don't know why, I guess I never did
Why don't you show me now
How to lose control
She's so very I don't care
She's so very I don't care
Just cause my world, sweet sister
Is so fucking goddamn full of rape
Does that mean my body
Must always be a source of pain?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
She's so very I don't care
She's so very I don't care
Just cause I named it right here, sweet chickadee
Don't mean for a minute you should think

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
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. to me It's about being a girl and how "we" are supposed to feel about sex (mostly) and other issues. one of my favorite lines in this song is 'We're not gonna prove nothing, nothing Sittin' around, watching each other starve What we need is action, strategy'----right fucking on!
