This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'm your neighborhood spaceman.
You don't know who I am,
or where I've been.
Circling like a satellite.
Sigh post in the sky,
look at me.
Religious ???????????(no clue)
The world is shaking me,
so the same(?).
So now I'm gonna sing,
I'm comin' home.
You hear my song through the galaxy.
Time's light has reached your eyes.
World has lived and died, but we're here.
Time and space are landing right where we're standing.
Open up your hand and something good will happen.
Drinking on the sun,
we found a whole new planet.
Stars align a thousand times that old black magic.
When no one is looking,
ain't gonna shut my mouth and I'm crying out.
When no one is looking,
I'm on the balcony singing the serenade.
When no one is looking,
I swallow thunder clouds, I kiss the hollowed ground.
When no one is looking,
I eat the desert sand and drink the Rio Grande.
When no one is looking,.
I'm crying raindrops and chewing mountain tops.
When no one is looking,
I break another rhyme and I'm stopping time.
I'm your neighborhood spaceman,
and your breath is moving through me.
On the surface of this moon I can say to you, "It's okay."
Somebody inside of us makes this joy a must(?),
then we'll be knee deep in ecstasy no gravity to hold us down again.
Were Free!
A thousand light years from this place,
I see the look on your face and I'm there.
Time and space are landing right where we're standing.
Open up your hand and something good will happen.
Drinking on the sun,
we found a whole new planet.
Stars align a thousand times that old black magic.
When no one is looking,
I'm gonna buckle down, I'm gonna hit the ground.
When no one is looking,
I got to understand, I'm packin' up again.
When no one is looking,
I'll pull the car around cause I'm leaving town.
When no one is looking,
I'm just a rocket man , I've seen the Vatican(?).
I'll never give up,
I'll never let you down, I'll bring you the crown.
I'll never give up,
but On the Other hand I wanna be the man.
I'll never give up,
I'll never let you down, I'll bring you the crown.
I'm courageous enough,
but on the other hand I'm out of here, my friend
You don't know who I am,
or where I've been.
Circling like a satellite.
Sigh post in the sky,
look at me.

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”

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

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 my take, could be wrong.
This is IMO the most personal self describing song lyrics he has ever written.
The airy, spacey feeling he is having alongside his awareness of being small in a vast universe is just his feeling of connection with everything. A higher level of awareness, akin to kensho. He stares at the stars with understanding due to our recent scientific and astronomic discoveries.
The person he describes is a singer of sorts, who walks the empty sidewalks at night, humming and trying to pretend that some lost love lives inside one of the houses. Since the title of the record is Peeping Tom, he might even be having an unhealthy and voyeuristic obsession with some woman he sees in a window along his walks.
" Under your balcony, singin' the serenade "
In this song he goes from someone who feels insignificant and alone. Outside of things, peering in on other lives. But when he spots someone who catches his interest, ZOOM ! He is off in the land of grandiose delusions.
I will do the impossible ! Chew on Mountain Tops !
I will finally amount to something, just to impress you !
I'm going to buckle down.
Then he realizes that he is not in the land of delusions.
Back on Earth again, but he tries to remember that spur of energy and motivation, to keep going out and doing his thing.
He'll never give up, he promises. He will bring her the crown, which is a trophy of achievement, to show " Her " that he is a success and it all due to " Her "
Then last lines are my favorite because I think it is the peeping tom seeing a light come on, or a face stare back in the window. And he flees !
On the other hand, I'm out of here my friend.
