In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
You could have been all I wanted
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the surest of favors
But if you really loved me
You would've endured my will
Well if you're just as I presumed
A whore in sheep's clothing
Fucking up all I do
And if so here we stop
Then never again will you see this in your life
Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest, is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these songs
You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played letter
I'll drill through your hands
The stone for the curse you have blamed me
With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
But if you could just write me out
To neverless wonder, happy will I become?
Be true that this is no option
So with sin, I condemn you
Demon pray, demon out
Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these songs
One last kiss for you
One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind, girl
I'll do anything for you
One last kiss for you
One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind, girl
Before I hope you die
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the surest of favors
But if you really loved me
You would've endured my will
Well if you're just as I presumed
A whore in sheep's clothing
Fucking up all I do
And if so here we stop
Then never again will you see this in your life
Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest, is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these songs
You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played letter
I'll drill through your hands
The stone for the curse you have blamed me
With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
But if you could just write me out
To neverless wonder, happy will I become?
Be true that this is no option
So with sin, I condemn you
Demon pray, demon out
Hang on to the glory at my right hand
Here laid to rest is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these songs
One last kiss for you
One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind, girl
I'll do anything for you
One last kiss for you
One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind, girl
Before I hope you die

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.
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
