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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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.
Ah, I love this song @_@
The video for it is pretty good if you ever get a chance to see it. Matches the song perfectly. As for the song's meaning, I think it may be about a person who just awoke from a dream in the middle of the night about someone he loves, but can't reveal for some reason. Being behind a mask, and looking into a mirror not being able to see himself might be symbolic of something, too.
That rude joke On that smart-ass TV show Torments me again tonight I can't laugh at all
On a hand-me-down bed On the veranda My pet falls asleep To the lullaby I'm creating
The night is always a cruel friend It sneaks up on you and covers your eyes And shows you a dream That you can't tell anyone about Please Please, me
The world invited by The midnight radio Raised me to be strong I'm not afraid of anything
I'm peering through a mask At a mirror that shows nothing And even though I'm cold and frozen By the rain they send pouring down
I know I can make it And even if I can't I'll survive without realizing it Just like that I was walking even though I was half asleep Please Please, me
The night is always a cruel friend It sneaks up on you and covers your eyes And shows you a dream That you can't tell anyone about Please Please, me
We're always vaguely blended 'I'm here!' you said, raising your hand It was unbelievable I could see you Please Please, me
