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.
You speak to mee
And in your words I hear a melody
But in the twilight it's so hard to see
What's wrong for me
I can't resist
Until you give the truth a little twist
As if you're gonna get away with this
You're not sorry
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
You sing to me
Too bad you couldn't even stay on key
If your life is such a mystery
Why don't you just stick to acting
Oh
Here we go again
You couldn't find my number until when
You thought that you could get to my best friend
Without a script your game is lacking
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
I'd rather go to a party alone
Than have to walk around with you on my arm
Now that I'm better to admit that we're done
Good luck trying to find me
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go solo
Oh oh oh
Look at what you've done
You're losing me
Here's what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
Now we're done oh oh
Cause you got me planning to go solo
And in your words I hear a melody
But in the twilight it's so hard to see
What's wrong for me
I can't resist
Until you give the truth a little twist
As if you're gonna get away with this
You're not sorry
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
You sing to me
Too bad you couldn't even stay on key
If your life is such a mystery
Why don't you just stick to acting
Oh
Here we go again
You couldn't find my number until when
You thought that you could get to my best friend
Without a script your game is lacking
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
I'd rather go to a party alone
Than have to walk around with you on my arm
Now that I'm better to admit that we're done
Good luck trying to find me
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go solo
Oh oh oh
Look at what you've done
You're losing me
Here's what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
Now we're done oh oh
Cause you got me planning to go solo

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
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"

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” 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.
