Houses

The Fire Theft

Call the moment good
Don't hurry if you can
See all the houses you'd build there
The sun warms my mind
The moon cools my toes
All of these memories hold meaning

Never mind the world when I'm laying by the pool
Oh no I'm feeling lazy and I need to seek the world
Wondering in night if my car can still drive
Holidays never been longer
The sun warms my mind
The moon cools my toes
All of these memories lose meaning

Never mind the world when you think it's right in front of you
I know they think I'm crazy and believe I need a girl
Another sleepless night
The idea of a perfect life
How many more minds can one house hold
The sun warms my mind
The moon cools my toes
Holidays never been longer

Never mind the words when you're laying by the pool
I thought that I was crazy
All along it was just a girl

    I can't believe nobody has commented on this song.

    I think it's about a guy who is always being reprimanded for not having a girlfriend of some sort by his relatives but he'd rather just relax and think about his perfect girl instead.

    Just my idea anyway. This song always makes me happy.

    Wow I had trouble trying to make sense of this song, as beautiful as it is. But I agree with Tack-o-Rama now I've re-read over it.

    This songs reminds me of myself. I often get in the habit of imagining a perfect life/relationship for myself instead of actually living and trying to accomplish it.

    "Never mind the world When I’m laying by the pool "

    Love those lyrics. Warm fuzzy feeling all over. :)

    This song is gay. But it's awesome, I guess.

Silent Planet
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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

Amazing
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.

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.
