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.
My art is called egocentric-soft-porno.
Or maybe it's just narcisism...
My one and only subject
Goes from something like anything but
Me-ism
Wouldn't it be easier for beardsley?
He could drop the paintings,
And photograph his penis.
Or take pixxx of the chicks...
Yeah, you know what I mean...
Wouldn't it be better for Esher?
He could drop the math
And make it happen on his mattress
2 girls and a cam!
3 girls and a cam!
You put a dog there and you got polaroid scat
I ain't no artist
I am an artbitch
I sell my paintings to the men I eat
I have no portifolio
and I only show
Where there's free alcohol
I am so hardcore
I sell my crap and people ask for more...
Call me revolutionary
I poo on a plate and get it published on visionaire.
What I do, is called art-shit.
And don't you dare make fun of me
Cuz everything I do was featured on the pages of i-d!
I ain't no artist
I am an ar-bitch
I sell my paintings to the men I eat
I have no portifolio
and I only show
Where there's free alcohol
I ain't no artist
I am an artbitch
I sell my paintings to the men I eat
I have no portifolio
and I only show
Where there's free alcohol
Lick lick lick my art-tit
Suck suck suck my art-hole
Or maybe it's just narcisism...
My one and only subject
Goes from something like anything but
Me-ism
Wouldn't it be easier for beardsley?
He could drop the paintings,
And photograph his penis.
Or take pixxx of the chicks...
Yeah, you know what I mean...
Wouldn't it be better for Esher?
He could drop the math
And make it happen on his mattress
2 girls and a cam!
3 girls and a cam!
You put a dog there and you got polaroid scat
I ain't no artist
I am an artbitch
I sell my paintings to the men I eat
I have no portifolio
and I only show
Where there's free alcohol
I am so hardcore
I sell my crap and people ask for more...

Where there's free alcohol
Lick lick lick my art-tit
Suck suck suck my art-hole

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
haha this song is amazing. i think suck my art-hole is particularly poetic. cuts me to the core.
Definitely math. It sounds like she says math, and it makes sense in regards to Escher. I dunno if it's an attack on modern art in general, given CCS' sound/costumes/videos which are all pretty avamt-garde, more an attack on the fakers and posers who just do outragrious shit becvause they want to be able to call themselves artists.
ANDY WARHOL
its not meh or meth but MATCH.
Since escher is famous for his artworks that have great detail to mathematical measurements and techniqual details.
It's definitely Math not Meth. "Maurits Cornelis Escher (17 June 1898 — 27 March 1972), usually referred to as M. C. Escher was a Dutch graphic artist. He is known for his often mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs, and mezzotints. These feature impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, architecture, and tessellations.
porn!
You just can't analyze CSS. I LOVE THIS SONG. Holy crap.
its about being no good at the shit you do which is about 80% of the music industry, and basically you just put 2 fingers up to anyone cause your getting paaaiid
please, stop pretending youre not that
These lyrics just PERFECTLY sum up Andy Warhol...
