The story it grows older
The story is no story here
I never knew what it is
There's no sign of it ending
As I am it and ought to be
They're telling me I am

Bowling racecar driver
Superficial hitman
You're on the list at every door
You don't bowl or race fast cars
Composition competition, you drive

Just because I don't go
To the church where you reside
I might as well forget it
The nineties won't be back again
Til I'm 48 years old

I can be the hungry
As I eat my words again
Appealing yet appalling
Rising to my falling
Going to extreme ends, I am gagging on this scene

Bowling racecar driver
Superficial hitman
You're on the list at every door
You don't bowl or race fast cars
Composition competition, you shift

I'm the driver
Over time in its defence
I moved their car
And for a moment it made sense
But I fail them in the end
I fail it in the end

In the arms of old age
Knowing only one to lose
Feeling nothing more to hide
Consider life a forgery
As you're swimming in this stream, admit to fraudulence
Driven to thought, resigned to go that way

Bowling racecar driver
Superficial hitman
You're on the list at every door
You don't bowl or race fast cars
Composition competition, you drive
Composition competition, I'm losing

I fail them in the end
I fail it in the end

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.
