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 because you're high
Just because you smile
Think that you're the one
Brighter than the sun
You don't need the world to get by
So you're beautiful
So you're beautiful
So you're beautiful
Radiate a glow
Confident to know
Beauty's always been
Movement from within
Raptured by your effortless flow
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Such resplendent grace, oh
Such resplendent grace
Oh, 'cause you stir fascination
May I extend an invitation?
To please be with me, please
If all you stir fascination
May I extend an invitation?
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Just because you smile
Think that you're the one
Brighter than the sun
You don't need the world to get by
So you're beautiful
So you're beautiful
So you're beautiful
Radiate a glow
Confident to know
Beauty's always been
Movement from within
Raptured by your effortless flow
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Makes you beautiful
Such resplendent grace, oh
Such resplendent grace
Oh, 'cause you stir fascination
May I extend an invitation?
To please be with me, please
If all you stir fascination
May I extend an invitation?
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you
Makes you beautiful
Makes you

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.
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
Ed Sheeran
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.
This is a wonderful song(my fave on the CD along with #7) about the internal qualities of a person that make them beautiful. The woman is confident, radiant, and graceful, which to him, epitomizes what beauty really is.
