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.
Ahora es hora de colgar
Estoy perdido en la línea
Son las dos y te llamé
Desespero
Pero es mejor decir adiós
E intentar mañana
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Ahora es hora de volver
Esta noche soy un Simulcop
Todo el tiempo me encontré
Dando vueltas
Es extraña esta ciudad
O yo estoy fuera de escala
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh
Que ahora es hora y no fue ayer
Mis amigos
He cambiado, pero aún mi corazón
Permanece intacto, tan intacto como ayer
Nada más para decir
Hasta Mañana
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Estoy perdido en la línea
Son las dos y te llamé
Desespero
Pero es mejor decir adiós
E intentar mañana
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Ahora es hora de volver
Esta noche soy un Simulcop
Todo el tiempo me encontré
Dando vueltas
Es extraña esta ciudad
O yo estoy fuera de escala
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh
Que ahora es hora y no fue ayer
Mis amigos
He cambiado, pero aún mi corazón
Permanece intacto, tan intacto como ayer
Nada más para decir
Hasta Mañana
Uh uh uh uh

Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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
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.
Si algo habia escuchado sobre lo de "Roma=Amor" y creo q es cierto. Esta cancion yo la veo como un tipo que es la primera vez que ama alguien y no sabe como decirselo por eso lo de "decir adios e intentar mañana" dejarlo para mas tarde. Divaga sobre como decirselo "Todo el tiempo me encontre dando vueltas" y al ser la primera vez que quiere a alguien no esta hecho para esta cuidad de amor "es extraña esta ciudad" y se encuentra "fuera de escala". Al final al no decirle nada y no reconocer este amor que le tiene "Ha cambiado pero aun su corazon permanece intacto, tan intacto como ayer" nada ha cambiado y por ultimo no le dice nada lo deja "Hasta mañana" lo pospone x el miedo que siente.
