This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I lie here all alone,
In my bed of memories
I'm dreamin' of your sweet kiss,
Oh, how you loved on me.
I can almost feel you with me,
Here in this blue moonlight,
Oh, I miss being Mrs., tonight
Like so many other hearts,
Mine wanted to be free,
I've been put here every day,
Since you've been away from me
My reflection in the mirror,
It's such a hurtful sight,
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
And how I loved them loving arms,
That once held me so tight,
I took off my wedding band,
And put it on my right hand,
I miss being Mrs. tonight.
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
And how I loved them loving arms,
That once held me so tight,
I took off my wedding band,
And put it on my right hand,
I miss being Mrs. tonight
Oh, I miss being Mrs. tonight
In my bed of memories
I'm dreamin' of your sweet kiss,
Oh, how you loved on me.
I can almost feel you with me,
Here in this blue moonlight,
Oh, I miss being Mrs., tonight
Like so many other hearts,
Mine wanted to be free,
I've been put here every day,
Since you've been away from me
My reflection in the mirror,
It's such a hurtful sight,
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
And how I loved them loving arms,
That once held me so tight,
I took off my wedding band,
And put it on my right hand,
I miss being Mrs. tonight.
Oh I miss being Mrs. tonight
And how I loved them loving arms,
That once held me so tight,
I took off my wedding band,
And put it on my right hand,
I miss being Mrs. tonight
Oh, I miss being Mrs. tonight

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

“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.
my God, how can this song not have any comments. i've decided what country is. it's when a poor girl from Kentucky can write a song that can affect a 30-something Asian guy that grew up in the suburbs of Southern California.
I know what you mean, gamelan. It's a beautiful, haunting song.<br /> <br /> There's a few songs on this album ('Van Lear Rose') where Loretta alludes to her husband ('This Old House', 'Story of My Life').<br /> <br /> Dumb question, but is it a tradition for widows to wear their wedding bands on the other hand?
This is @ the game. I got a plan for you, stop being so stereotypical. I can't tell if people are actually being serious or not. Maybe your just trying to relate. Oh well, who asked me right? Just an observation..
Lovely song btw
