This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I sunk my eyes in static
You taught me how to see it
Now there's no sign of you at hand
So I stop looking at it
My head is splitting trying
To read the name that you abandoned
Congratulations sister
You put yourself right over
Though you don't think I understand
This sudden awkward rupture
This stuck-unhealing fissure
No love could possibly withstand
And I'd never say
It doesn't mean that much to me
Glad anyway
To see you struggle free
Pinned down but unexamined
Though you kept right on looking
At static there behind my eyes
Keep pushing one-way vision
I guess at least it's something
Since everything is so compromised
You taught me how to see it
Now there's no sign of you at hand
So I stop looking at it
My head is splitting trying
To read the name that you abandoned
Congratulations sister
You put yourself right over
Though you don't think I understand
This sudden awkward rupture
This stuck-unhealing fissure
No love could possibly withstand
And I'd never say
It doesn't mean that much to me
Glad anyway
To see you struggle free
Pinned down but unexamined
Though you kept right on looking
At static there behind my eyes
Keep pushing one-way vision
I guess at least it's something
Since everything is so compromised

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
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Lryics need to be fixed up a bit. Not exactly accurate.
I can tell you all that this song floors me. I love it so.
Wow this song amazing. its intense and passionate, as for the meaning i think its about relationship issues.the relationship was rocky and awkward, so his partner left his ass. He thinks that she doesnt know he knew they were a mess, and says basically im glad you came to your senses and broke things off before things got ugly. Then Robbins wrote a song about it. The End.
This is my favorite Jawbox song, and that is saying something as their whole catalog is excellent. Four long players 2 comp's and a metric ton of singles and one off comp's; no one can accuse them of being lazy. Anywho, this song is about J's sister. I will let him explain the song in his own word's.
JR: The song was written just after my half-sister “divorced” my family, for reasons that were not 100% clear at the time. I had always been very close to her, in fact I would say she raised me, as much as or more than my parents did. But in the wake of this decision, at her insistence, we didn’t speak again for about 10 years. It was a very strange moment, incredibly sad, but I also trusted her to be doing the right thing for the right reasons. It really put me at odds with my parents because I was really on her side of it. I didn’t know what else to do with the feelings around this event, so they went into a song. The song also references TV sort of obliquely, because it was such a force in my childhood, as a kid I was really shaped by TV, and funnily enough my sister went on to work in TV throughout my adolescence and early adulthood. So that’s the part about her teaching me how to see it.
