Oh, oh, oh

I saw you with him today
The boy who took my place
You seemed so much happier with me
Maybe that's just the way I want it to be

I heard that you've been asking 'bout me
'Least that's what tears were telling me
I gave you up such a long time ago
But everyday I wonder why I ever let you go

Now it's just another one of those days
Where you may not feel so right
The way you fit into my arms at night
I'll remember that feeling for the rest of my life

But it's just another one of those days
I can't help but feel a little obsessed
About the things you and I never had
I had the world but instead I threw it all away
And now it's just another one of those days

Oh, oh, oh

Does he really give you all that you need?
Does he feel better than me?
I find it hard to believe

Why don't you tell me to believe?
Why did you let me feel?
Is that the way it's got to be?
What's wrong with me?

Why don't you tell me to believe?
Why don't you make him leave?
It's not the way this has to be

But it's just another one of those days
Where you may not feel so right
The way you fit into my arms at night
I'll remember that feeling for the rest of my life

But it's just another one of those days
I can't help but feel a little obsessed
About the things you and I never had
I had the world but instead I threw it all away
And now it's just another one of those days

Oh, oh, oh

    To me this song seems to be about a guy that broke up with his girlfriend and now he completely regrets it and know he has messed up and wants her back.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
