Ich hab' dich seit langem nicht geseh'n

War überrascht, auf einmal vor dir zu steh'n

Ich hätte dich auch beinahe nicht erkannt

Doch der große rote Stein hat deinen Namen genannt


So viele Jahre ist es her

Und seitdem ist viel gescheh'n

Scheiße kommt und Scheiße geht

Wir hab'n das Meiste schon geseh'n

Du bist nicht hier und trotzdem hast

Du überhaupt gar nichts verpaßt


Neben dir ein altes Ehepaar

Zu deinen Füßen sitzt man wunderbar

Auf dem dicken fetten Protzestein

Von einem toten Pfaffenschwein


So viele Jahre ist es her

Und seitdem ist viel gescheh'n

Scheiße kommt und Scheiße geht

Wir hab'n das Meiste schon geseh'n

Du bist nicht hier und trotzdem hast

Du überhaupt gar nichts verpaßt


So viele Jahre ist es her

Und seitdem ist viel gescheh'n

Scheiße kommt und Scheiße geht

Wir hab'n das Meiste schon geseh'n

Scheiße kommt und Scheiße bleibt

Nichts als Scheiße weit und breit

Glück für den, der nicht mehr lebt

Hey, Thomas


(Refrain)

    I think Thomas is an old Friend of the Singer who is dead. Now the Singer sits at his grave and thinks about the bad world

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

Punchline
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.

Amazing
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
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.
