Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Brother and sister together will make it through
Some day a spirit will take you and guide you there
I know you've been hurting but I've been waiting to be there for you
And ill be there just helping you out whenever I can
Everybody's free

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
No Surprises
Radiohead
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

“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.
Page

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.
“Stay with me” by DJ Ironik
I think that he wants to write about love, and he loves someone that have died or is really ill and don’t have much time left. It is probably about someone in his family or wife/girlfriend. He wants a second chance with that special person. He doesn’t want the special one to leave… at least not yet. But still he needs to let go, he can’t hold on forever.
Example: Stay with me, Don’t fall asleep too soon, The angels can wait, For a moment
But it can also be about something he have done and he regrets it, he wants to make everything right again but it is too hard. He hopes that everything can wait, just stop the time for a while.
Example: You’ve seen me Grow and helped me through, And there is no repayin you, Im here and I feel like im Delayin you, betrayin you.
When I hear this song I get the feeling of love, regrets and some loneliness. Someone is leaving and he doesn’t want it to happen. But the one who is leaving can’t wait, but he has so much that he wants to tell this person. They want a second chance of a good life together.
Example: I wanna see you face Every time I come home cause’ I cant leave u like this In this cold world alone
I think it is a really sad song, because he sings that he wants happiness with someone and that someone can’t help him. But he shouldn’t be sad, it is no point of being say, because it won’t change anything.
Example: Don’t cry for me when im gone No point of wasted tears
I guess that you can write so much more of this song but that is what I think about it and it is one of the best songs I have ever heard because it have so much emotions. And I don’t want to chance anything because I think that it is a great song.
If a got a chance to change the title it would be to “The angels can wait” and it is just because that he sings it so much that they should wait, they can give them a moment.
Example: The angels can wait For a moment
The song got an easy lyric if you ask me, it is a language adjust for teenagers. There is not so much slang, I could find in some words he takes away a letter, for example: betrayin, it should be a g in the word to but it isn’t. And some things in the song does he repeat and that is the chorus but that is the idea of a chorus.
This is a song about life and death
Stay with me don't fall asleep to soon the angels can wait for a moment
The person is dying, but the other person don't want them to die too soon, and asks the angels to wait so they can have more time.
The rest of the song is like a parting note.
