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"
This is a song about five simple words
That when used together properly can help
To relieve the stress, frustrations and aggravation
Caused by all the people that make you wanna freak the **** out
Why do you have to go and make things so hard?
It doesn't have to be like this
Who the **** do you think you are?
That's it, I'm walking away
It's just one more reason for me to say
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
About you and your point of view
Or your stupid, selfish attitude
And it seems to be
That you never really gave a **** about me
So I don't give a ****. I don't give a ****
No, I don't give a ****, I don't give a ****
To my boss who's always hassling me
And the people that I work with harassing me
And to the ones talking **** with their backs to me
And to my loving parents through my wonderful teenage years
To my ex-girlfriend who cheated on me
To my ex-teachers that never believed in me
To the people who always want something for free
And to the president of the United States of America
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
About you and your point of view
Or your stupid, selfish attitude
And it seems to be
That you never really gave a **** about me
Now I see, I woke up from the fantasy
I hate you (I hate you)
It's true (I do)
And I don't give a **** about you
I don't give a **** about you
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
I don't give a ****, I don't give a (What?)
I don't give a **** about you

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.
Head > Heels

“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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
i think this about what every teen feels like growing up.catchy as fuck
These are not the lyrics to I Don't Give A F*ck, by Dope. Not sure who, what, where, or when but...
@BipolarSoldier I submitted a change so once it gets approved it should be fine.
This song comes from their record label telling them that they should curse less on the new album. This is their way of appeasing the record company to a small degree while also telling them to....F**k off. :D
