@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I admit I miss seeing your face, babe
And being alone is starting to take its toll
I'm cold and it's getting old
I admit I should've made some changes
We were so smothered in love
We didn't have a chance to come up for air
What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know
What's this place? Where did our home go?
We won't know, I don't know
Too much of anything is too much
And too much of love can be too much
We had too much time, too much us
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much
I admit I'm still watching the days go by
And sleeping alone is starting to break me down
It's cold, but I should've known
I admit I made a few mistakes, babe
We were so caught up in love
We didn't have a chance to come up for air
What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know
What's this place? Where did my heart go?
We'll never know, I'll never know
And too much of anything is too much
And too much of love can be too much
We had too much time, too much us
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much
I need to find a reason to feel
Like everything was meant to be let go
Take it slow 'cause I can't be on my own
Too much of anything is too much
(It's just too much)
Too much of love can be too much
(It's just too)
We had too much time, too much us
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much
And being alone is starting to take its toll
I'm cold and it's getting old
I admit I should've made some changes
We were so smothered in love
We didn't have a chance to come up for air
What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know
What's this place? Where did our home go?
We won't know, I don't know
Too much of anything is too much
And too much of love can be too much
We had too much time, too much us
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much
I admit I'm still watching the days go by
And sleeping alone is starting to break me down
It's cold, but I should've known
I admit I made a few mistakes, babe
We were so caught up in love
We didn't have a chance to come up for air
What a waste, where did the time go?
Where did our minds go? I don't know
What's this place? Where did my heart go?
We'll never know, I'll never know
And too much of anything is too much
And too much of love can be too much
We had too much time, too much us
So we fought like tomorrow was promised
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much
I need to find a reason to feel

Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
M-m-much, too much

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“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.
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.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“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.
Am I the only that noticed how ironic the song order is? Walls talks about 'falling so in love with you and no one else'. We follow that up with talking about being 'smothered in love' and having 'too much'.
Irony aside, this song is a not what I expected from All Time Low. I wish they had taken a more acoustic route instead leaning towards a techno beat; that might have helped a bit.
Overall I like the new album. It's different and took some getting used to, but I like it. This particular song simply is not a high point in Nothing Personal.
