All alone in pink
All the carpets fade to grey
Amplifiers burst out the deal that I have made
What's there to say
I cannot say by myself?

Thinking about writing it down seems pretentious
And helplessness may be the word they nail to my name
In a while

[Chorus:]
Stupid memory
Must you bring up these things?
Stupid memory
Can I forget all of that?
All of that crap

All embarrassment
In addition to the talk
In each crowded court there's a spot
Where I fall in love and short
On public demand
There are no words they can't hear

[Chorus]
Stupid memory
Must you bring up these things?
Stupid memory
Can I forget all of that?
All of that crap

I think I forced a smile upon her mouth
I know I dreamt that, hollowness aside
Everyone's a winner if the stadium is right
But rarely anything good comes out

Memory!
Must you bring up these things?
Only stupid words
Make me forget all of that
Stupid memory
Can I forget all that crap?
Stupid memory. can I forget all of that? [Repeat: x1]

    The incessant, frustrating memory of all the stupid things you've said and done...I can relate. If you could just get your memory to shut up and quit bringing it up. I love this song!

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

Page

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.
