This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
As we dwell inside the safe zones that we've made
Where nothing but earthly pleasures seem to matter
The only light we see is from the screens
No will to feel or explore the forgotten dimensions
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still, for a moment
And I guess we will be making history
When we all join hands just to watch the sky
(For a moment...)
Our selfish lives have made us all go blind
One day we'll awake by a bright light on the horizon
In one second every eye will see the same
And this blinding light will draw all our attention
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still, for a moment
For the very first time and it's meant to be
We'll forget about ourselves and share the moment
(For a moment...)
Where nothing but earthly pleasures seem to matter
The only light we see is from the screens
No will to feel or explore the forgotten dimensions
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still, for a moment
And I guess we will be making history
When we all join hands just to watch the sky
(For a moment...)
Our selfish lives have made us all go blind
One day we'll awake by a bright light on the horizon
In one second every eye will see the same
And this blinding light will draw all our attention
Some day we'll catch a glimpse of eternity
As the world stands still, for a moment
For the very first time and it's meant to be
We'll forget about ourselves and share the moment
(For a moment...)

No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical

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.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
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.
In 1999, when the song was wrotten, there was a big eclipse of the sun. But also Nostradamus said that in 1999 ''the big king gonna go down from they sky'' or like that. Some people saw in this premonition UFO, some a big meteor, which gonna destroy our world. But mainly I'm gonna think, that STP meant aliens- that thay gonna make out maybe, people are so blind, ignoring possibility that we're not the only one in Space. And then will come the day, when with fear we gonna look at the flying saucers at the sky, holding with our hands, because we gonna feel that we all are humans and there are no borders between us...But why Eclipse? Maybe he first wrote music and gave a title ''Eclipse'', because he was thinking about the Sun Eclipse, but later he wrote this text about aliens and connected with Eclipse, because they fitted together. Or it's that , than humanity have...eclipse of minds :D
