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.
Another tragedy in the news
Someone shooting down the right to choose
It doesn't seem at all that they chose the right way
Another law I heard got passed today
Someone's trying to take my rights away
It doesn't seem to me they chose the right way
It's out of my hands but stuck in my mind in time
I find my spine is crooked in design
I want to be so much more (I wanna be so much)
Rescue me
Take this hand, by myself, alone I stand
Rescue me
From this world, from myself, before I grow old
Someone rescue me
Does anybody ever feel this way?
Does anybody have the guts to say?
It doesn't seem at all they chose the right way (yo man you're going the wrong way)
Who am I to say I disagree?
Who am I not to change a thing?
Because I don't believe they chose the right way (hey man you're going the wrong way)
Repeat Chorus
Here it comes again
Excuse too weak to stand on
I'm falling off
Too weak to stand on
I'm falling off
Too weak to hang on
Falling for you to catch me (catch me) (x2)
I'm afraid
That no one is changing
who’s to blame?
Someone SAVE ME!!

Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
This song practically MADE the game S.L.A.I. (Steel Lancer Arena International) worth playing. I've stomped SO many asses listening to this song.
Very good underground band, though. Love their sound.
This song is mainly about being pissed off at so much shit going on in the world, and nothing being done about it. Finally wondering if maybe telling people 'Hey, the world is still beautiful, let's go out and make it that way' is a lost cause on this Generation X bullshit.
In my opinion, it isn't. The world's still a beautiful place. Open your eyes and see it.
S.L.A.I. is a bloody amazing game and "the old zebrahead" basically made the game, mainly this song though.
i've listened to this song a lot and never really understood it too well but when i thought about the line "It's out of my hands but stuck in my mind in time, I find my spine is crooked in design, I want to be so much more (I wanna be so much)" i think it might be about how when you want to say something or stand up for what you believe but your too afraid. and you think about it but you convince yourself that you cant make a difference or stand up to someone. when people say you are spineless they ussually mean you are a coward so when it says "i find my spine is crooked in design" its kind of saying that he is afraid of standing up for himself. then its saying that he wants to be more then the person who goes through life with a bunch of opinions but not sharing them with anyone...this relates to my life a lot.. then it goes on in the 2nd verse to ask "does anyone have the guts to say?" and "Who am I to say I disagree?" "Who am I not to change a thing?". hes asking himself why would anyone listen to me and thinks that his opinions dont matter but everyones opinon matters
i just now thought it might speciffically be about the american government. but the overall meaning is just to stand up for your beliefs
Is this song all about loosing faith in the world and not fitting in..
Yeah. Like the world is crazy and you just wanna escape. I've loved this song since the very first time I heard it.
