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.
I shred your bones to poetry
Yes it's me again
I wreck your positivity
Yes it's me again
I fuck it to watch it bleed
I kick it to make it scream
I am the alternate choice
To some straight life from mercy
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x3)
It's me again
I rip your throat out on a whim
Yes it's me again
I only ask for everything
Yes it's me again
I squeeze it to feel it breathe
I smash it to feul this need
I am the antidote for
whatever sickness you feed
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x3)
It's me again
Little Ms. Fucker don't move an inch
Ya'll dumb suckers can't take the heat
Your blood rushing from head to feet
This is what I stand for
All wrong choices that's done to man
All you fuckers know who I am
I'm the living proof that you can
Turn around and say it's me again
It's me again
FUCK(x4)
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x7)
It's me again
Yes it's me again
I wreck your positivity
Yes it's me again
I fuck it to watch it bleed
I kick it to make it scream
I am the alternate choice
To some straight life from mercy
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x3)
It's me again
I rip your throat out on a whim
Yes it's me again
I only ask for everything
Yes it's me again
I squeeze it to feel it breathe
I smash it to feul this need
I am the antidote for
whatever sickness you feed
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x3)
It's me again
Little Ms. Fucker don't move an inch
Ya'll dumb suckers can't take the heat
Your blood rushing from head to feet
This is what I stand for
All wrong choices that's done to man
All you fuckers know who I am
I'm the living proof that you can
Turn around and say it's me again
It's me again
FUCK(x4)
You see beauty, I see pain
You see sky and I see acid rain
It's me again, it's me again (it's me again)(x7)
It's me again

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
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.
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.
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.
I love this song its one of my favorite songs
