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.
All the pieces of the puzzle seem to fall into place
But the only thought that I could think was pissin in that fuckin face
The taste that you left in my mouth was rotten
And you think that all the shit you did to me could be forgotten
Well fuck no
you both got me last time
next time I see your punk ass its mine
from behind dawg I'm gonna crack that skull
then I'm gonna laugh when you fall cause you fucked me raw
comin home late at night when your sneakin in the door
with a bottle half empty and your tank is on full
you Hurt me
and I will never forget
how you Hurt me
and all the pain you caused
left my mind blank and my soul was lost
and now the thoughts are in my head and drifting side to side
you know I'm gonna get cause there is nowhere to hide
headlines will read on the night she died
trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
I'm gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin Hurt me
Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me
My head was fucked up; hurt me
When I was locked up: Hurt me
Made a phone call; Hurt Me
Bitch put a block up; HURT ME
on the phone letters to your home
but you never wrote me back
what the fucks up with that
one of these days I'm gonna get you bitch
find your body
in an valley
in the alley
in a ditch
with a 45 chrome to the back of your dome
havin everybody wonderin what the fuck is goin on
where the fuck did you go
never be back again
but I still keep thinkin about you now and then
Trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin hurt me
I remember when I first said I love you
Got confused from the first time I fucked you
You got nervous when I opened up your legs Relax
cause I was raised on X-rated moves and porno mags
all day walk around with a full buzz
never fully understood what our love was
L-25 straight brought the light
same time had to dip outa town for a few nights
came back and my road dawgs waitin
tellin me some shit leavin me contemplaitin
murder
fuckin my best friend
unheard of
and I'm gonna get you in the end yeah
one of these days it'll be my time
and I'm gonna slit your throat make it look suicide
fuck you don't trust you
But the only thought that I could think was pissin in that fuckin face
The taste that you left in my mouth was rotten
And you think that all the shit you did to me could be forgotten
Well fuck no
you both got me last time
next time I see your punk ass its mine
from behind dawg I'm gonna crack that skull
then I'm gonna laugh when you fall cause you fucked me raw
comin home late at night when your sneakin in the door
with a bottle half empty and your tank is on full
you Hurt me
and I will never forget
how you Hurt me
and all the pain you caused
left my mind blank and my soul was lost
and now the thoughts are in my head and drifting side to side
you know I'm gonna get cause there is nowhere to hide
headlines will read on the night she died
trust me
I will get your ass back
If it kills me
for the rest of your life you will feel me
I'm gonna make you remember that you
Hurt me
you fuckin Hurt me
Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me; Hurt me
My head was fucked up; hurt me

Little Feat
Little Feat
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”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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.
Its obvious, this chick hurt this guy, and he's gonna kill her. Very good song
