Fade away
So you don't make a scene
Close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever
Afraid of what you are
Afraid of how you
Learn to close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever

If you had the mind to just check out
Its something better that nothing
I'm not the type to scream and shout
(yeah)

Pain
In pains me just to see you with
Rather be lost in a river without you
Pain, pain, pain.

You made your point
You don't know what to say
Close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever
You never come so close
You never got this far
You close your mouth and try keeping it closed forever

If you had the mind to just check out
Its something better that nothing
I'm not the type to scream and shout
(yeah)

Pain
In pains me just to see you with
Rather be lost in a river without you
Pain, pain, pain.

Shamed of what you are and what you been
It must be hard living tired in your shoes
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame

So cry bad day
Grey clouds, black haze
So sure the sun could collapse your ways
So cry bad day
(So cry bad day)
So cry bad day
(So cry bad day)

So cry bad day
Grey clouds, black haze
So sure the sun could collapse your ways
So cry bad day
(So cry bad day)
So cry bad day
(So cry bad day)

Pain
In pains me just to see you with
Rather be lost in a river without you
Pain, pain, pain.

Shamed of what you are and what you been
It must be hard living tired in your shoes
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame

Pain

Keep your mouth closed
Keep your mouth closed
Keep your mouth closed
Keep your mouth closed
Keep your mouth closed
Keep your mouth closed

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.

Blue
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.

Page
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.
