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”
The position being taken is not to be mistaken
For attempted education or righteous accusation
Only a description, just an observation
Of the pitiful condition of our degeneration
Walls made of opinions, through which we speak but never listen
Ceiling made of pride, vicious and self-satisfied
Door that's made of rage, hard and slowly aged
Always closing tighter with any war we wage
And it's a room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Floor is made of lives we'd gladly end to stay inside
Corners made of borders, and borders made of order
Painted with the words of politicians and religion
Plastered with the wreckage of our cultural division
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Hahaha
Oh, we're so stupid
Killin' each other
Don't we learn nothin'?
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Got to make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Gotta make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see
The position being taken is not to be mistaken
For attempted education or righteous accusation
Only a description, just an observation
Of the pitiful condition of our degeneration
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
For attempted education or righteous accusation
Only a description, just an observation
Of the pitiful condition of our degeneration
Walls made of opinions, through which we speak but never listen
Ceiling made of pride, vicious and self-satisfied
Door that's made of rage, hard and slowly aged
Always closing tighter with any war we wage
And it's a room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Floor is made of lives we'd gladly end to stay inside
Corners made of borders, and borders made of order
Painted with the words of politicians and religion
Plastered with the wreckage of our cultural division
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Hahaha
Oh, we're so stupid
Killin' each other
Don't we learn nothin'?
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Got to make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see
Gotta room inside our mind, yeah, we gotta
We can't see out because we're blind, but it goes to show
Gotta make ourselves dream, all right
From the room without a window to a different way to see

Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out
Room without a window, can't see out, can't see out

@[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.

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.
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.
This is my favourite Operation Ivy song!
