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”
All our monkeys have monkeys
We drive our death crush diamond jaguar limousines
We're not fantastic motherfuckers
But we play them on TV
It's a dirty word Reich
Say what you like
It's a dirty word Reich
Say what you like
We're the low art gloominati
And we aim to depress
The scabaret sacrilegends
This is the golden age of grotesque
We're the low art gloominati
And we aim to depress
The scabaret sacrilegends
This is the golden age of grotesque
The devils are girls with van Gogh's missing ear
You say want you want but filth is all that they hear
I've got the jigger
To make all of you bigger
Ladies und gentlemen, so drop your pissroom bait
And make sure you're not late, you tramps and lunatics
Here's a trick that's gonna make you

@[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.

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.
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.
Well, it seems a bit misleading to say that you hear "the pages of Nietzsche being opened and spun into lyrical form" if you're also going to affirm that it is a misinterpretation of Nietzsche's work to compare it with Nazism. Sure, you could MISINTERPRET Nietzsche's writings to the point where they seem aligned with these lyrics, but otherwise I don't see the similarity, or what you're even trying to say for that matter. You're saying that the lyrics seem very Nietzschean because they also seem very fascist/nazi-esque, but at the same time you agree that the true meaning of Nietzsche's writings would not support Fascism/Nazism. I wouldn't usually be such a prick to point out someone else's flawed and logically invalid comment, but you seemed to get rather defensive and sarcastic, so I figured why not.
