in fact

a dark hat hung on a hook
looks like
a well behaved black hole cocked correctly
on what must be a very serious wall

some delicious picture of proof

a human yell kept in the glass and gelatin
yester second of someone's great photograph

rerunning luke and nothing like it looks
across your ever so slight appetite for life

completely indulging your fat american eye
as you walk into the warm chest of a full waiting room
over flowing with a great deal of and a whole lot of carpeting

below the skylight
there is a bright boy, thumbing his eyes closed
in a rather emotional amount of sun
and he can't seem to explain why he is almost constantly w/goose bumps

you've walked into his very sick second

thick as the farmiliar and dark instant
during which your kitchen light sticks

your cells stutter ever so slightly
and reverse
your eyes are off
yet you can still see
climbing through a soft spot in the clock
eating out the stiff fruit of a photograph

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”

Page
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.
