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.
Come and I'll take you under
This beautiful bruises colors
Everything fades in time, it's true
Wish that I had another
Stab at the under cover
Was it a change in mind for you?
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood
Mood
Your eyes still remind me of
Angels that hover above
Eyes that can change from blind to blue
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood
Mood
Mood
Mood
Now that I've found my reward
Throw it away long before
I'd share a piece of mine with you
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood
Mood
Mood
Mood
This beautiful bruises colors
Everything fades in time, it's true
Wish that I had another
Stab at the under cover
Was it a change in mind for you?
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood
Mood
Your eyes still remind me of
Angels that hover above
Eyes that can change from blind to blue
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood
Mood
Mood
Mood
Now that I've found my reward
Throw it away long before
I'd share a piece of mine with you
(It's impossible)
I can't let it out
(You'll never know)
Am I selling you out?
(Sit and watch)
Your every mood

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.
This song is not about KURT COBAIN.Mr.Grohl wrote this song about an old childhood friend of his that he was trying to get in touch with.I remember reading in this one other website that Dave Grohl really missed him and wanted to talk to him so he decided to name the song after him HOPING that he'd get in touch with Dave Grohl.
But this song has nothing to do with Mr.Cobain.And neither does every other Foo Fighter song out there.I do believe Kurt had a freat influence on Dave,but I just simply refuse to believe that every Foo Fighters song is about Kurt Cobain.
