This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Can you feel the tension in the air?
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
So I lied
Don't say you've done the same
Without a smile upon your face
'Cause once you've but tasted
Of this fruit that lay,
A serpent swayed your ways
Which brings me to my next thought
Walk these roads as crooked as they be
So I lied, and so we lie
Can you feel the tension in the air?
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
So I lied,
This time I face the sky without a smile,
Without a trace
And I don't just see blue I choose to
With still no sign of you
Which brings me to my next thought
Don't be fooled by the cunning ways of the truth
So I lied, and so we lie
Weakened knees
Belong to those who find it hard to believe
But so intrigued
By the thought of someone,
Somehow, meeting their needs
By the thought of someone,
Somewhere, meeting our needs
Without tension in the air
Assuring you one again I'm there
You break my trust,
You break my heart
I break your fall
You fall, your fall
Your fall
But can you feel the tension in the air?
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
You break my trust, your fall
You break my heart, your fall
I'll break your fall
Your fall
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
So I lied
Don't say you've done the same
Without a smile upon your face
'Cause once you've but tasted
Of this fruit that lay,
A serpent swayed your ways
Which brings me to my next thought
Walk these roads as crooked as they be
So I lied, and so we lie
Can you feel the tension in the air?
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
So I lied,
This time I face the sky without a smile,
Without a trace
And I don't just see blue I choose to
With still no sign of you
Which brings me to my next thought
Don't be fooled by the cunning ways of the truth
So I lied, and so we lie
Weakened knees
Belong to those who find it hard to believe
But so intrigued
By the thought of someone,
Somehow, meeting their needs
By the thought of someone,
Somewhere, meeting our needs
Without tension in the air
Assuring you one again I'm there
You break my trust,
You break my heart
I break your fall
You fall, your fall
Your fall
But can you feel the tension in the air?
Assuring you once again I'm there
'Cause you break my trust,
You break my heart
I'll break your fall
You break my trust, your fall
You break my heart, your fall
I'll break your fall
Your fall

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”

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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 is about the book, "The Screwtape Letters," by C.S. Lewis. Read the book...it's awesome. It's a dialogue between Satan and one of his workers in which he's telling the worker how to destroy a man.
