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 holy scientific elite at the top the daisy chain
livermore lab and u.c., tuition part of the daisy chain
blind eyed the winter sun is ever brighter
the warm september shine
grind on, because the juice that primes the trigger won't fade
pay your tax and bills or get yanked off the rig of the daisy chain
dig down deeper than deep, tech it up for the daisy chain
blind eyed the winter sun is ever brighter
the warm september shine
grind on, because the juice that primes the trigger won't fade
livermore lab and u.c., tuition part of the daisy chain
blind eyed the winter sun is ever brighter
the warm september shine
grind on, because the juice that primes the trigger won't fade
pay your tax and bills or get yanked off the rig of the daisy chain
dig down deeper than deep, tech it up for the daisy chain
blind eyed the winter sun is ever brighter
the warm september shine
grind on, because the juice that primes the trigger won't fade

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.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
also interesting: the throbbing bassline of "daisy chain" is very similar to frankie goes to hollywood's "two tribes," released at the height of the cold war, about military supremacy and war in the nuclear age ("when two tribes go to war / one is all that you can score"). an amazing song and an even more amazing video:
