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 caught a demon in a mouse trap
one day behind the house.
he said please let me free, ill do anything.
we came to an agreement
made an exchange
your freedom for my name
then he began
he began to sing
devil song, wont be too long
finally see the evil you've become
the devil cries all through the night.
i dont think theres a reason, no.
devil song wont be too long
finally see the evil you've become
the devil cries all through the night
says this feels like a nightmare
well i was always told your a liar and not too trust
but money still means nothing
and we're all still
we're all in the same song
this feels like a nightmare
one day behind the house.
he said please let me free, ill do anything.
we came to an agreement
made an exchange
your freedom for my name
then he began
he began to sing
devil song, wont be too long
finally see the evil you've become
the devil cries all through the night.
i dont think theres a reason, no.
devil song wont be too long
finally see the evil you've become
the devil cries all through the night
says this feels like a nightmare
well i was always told your a liar and not too trust
but money still means nothing
and we're all still
we're all in the same song
this feels like a nightmare

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
