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”
You know I started to grow
since you've been away
Lately, it's scarier not knowing
What's become of you
Are you proud of me now, I can't tell
I'm not as fearless as you
Still I pretend that you're still standing by
To show me wrong from right
Never got a chance to say goodbye
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
I used to think you were crazy
When you were hooked to the screen
But now they tell me that you're in a better place
But where did you go?
(But where did you go?)
And I swear sometimes you're watching over me
Still I'd give the world
for the chance
just to see your face again
Still I pretend that you're still standing by
To show me wrong from right
Never got a chance to say goodbye
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Now, there's nothing left but time
Know that I'm following you
Eva's always on my mind
And it makes me wonder
(Makes me wonder)
What happened to you?
You know it makes me wonder
Still I pretend that you're still standing by
To show Me wrong from right
Never got a chance to say goodbye
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Take this giftt from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
And never let this go...
away..

Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind

and never let this go
Take this gift from me
hold it deep in mind
forever
and never let this go
And never let this go...
away..

@[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.

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.
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
It was the first Orgy song i really loved, now they're my favorite band.
