This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Guess we always knew
Best of friends, we'd always be
Sister and brother, we two
Romance never entered our view
Always you were there, hey hey
When I needed you
Suddenly out of nowhere
I realized, I loved only you
And that's how, true love begins
It just walks right on in
And one day I knew
It was you it was you, it was always you
Baby, in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Funny, how it goes
We'd been a last to know
We were made for each other
And from friends, we became lovers
Keep on being my friend
Our love will never end
We'll have it all
Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will
In the end
I've got you as lover and friend, yeah
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Oh, keep on being my friend
Our love will never end
We'll have it all
Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will
In the end
I've got you as lover and friend, yeah
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
We're gonna have a happy ending
Yes, we started out with such a great beginning
We'll walk together, talk together in every kind of weather
We're bound together, forever, yeah
Baby, in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Best of friends, we'd always be
Sister and brother, we two
Romance never entered our view
Always you were there, hey hey
When I needed you
Suddenly out of nowhere
I realized, I loved only you
And that's how, true love begins
It just walks right on in
And one day I knew
It was you it was you, it was always you
Baby, in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Funny, how it goes
We'd been a last to know
We were made for each other
And from friends, we became lovers
Keep on being my friend
Our love will never end
We'll have it all
Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will
In the end
I've got you as lover and friend, yeah
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
Oh, keep on being my friend
Our love will never end
We'll have it all
Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will
In the end
I've got you as lover and friend, yeah
Darling in the end
I've got you as lover and friend
We're gonna have a happy ending
Yes, we started out with such a great beginning
We'll walk together, talk together in every kind of weather
We're bound together, forever, yeah
Baby, in the end
I've got you as lover and friend

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
