Just open up like a page in a book.
These words that I'm writing wont be misunderstood
If I'm dishonest bring me back to my knees.
Show me why I'm even able to speak.
I'll testify please help me to see.
Don't close your eyes, keep your eyes on me.
Open up, open up now make me strong.
There's blood on my hands, but the killers not my enemy.
It's all for the sake of love, It's all for you.

[Chorus]
When all we know is falling I'll save something for you you who are all alone.
When everything is beautiful, when everything's OK.
Even if it's not OK I'll say It's all for you.

These hands hold up nothing but scars underneath
From swimming these oceans and learning to breathe
So often I tell them so often they listen to me
So make me strong
There's blood on my hands
But the killers not my enemy
It's all for the sake of love
It's all for you

[Chorus]

I can feel it in my fingertips
I can taste it in the air
I know some how there is something
There is something new
I see it so clearly
I can feel your hands on my fingertips
I'm seeing oh so clear
I know it's for you
I see so clear

[Chorus]

    I actually find some of the lines in the song a bit anti-religous. He's obviously singing the song from the perspective of someone who believes in God, but it almost sounds a little satirical, like he's criticizing himself.

    "There's blood on my hands, but the killers not my enemy. It's all for the sake of love, It's all for you. "

    It sounds a lot like he's committing an act which he himself considers wrong ("the killer is not my enemy", perhaps indicating that the killer is himself), but he quickly ascertains that it's an act of love in God's eyes, which he uses to convince himself to follow through with the act. (I.e. when God tells Abraham to kill his son.)

    Then there's this line which kinda gives me the same message: "When everything is beautiful, when everything's OK. Even if it's not OK I'll say It's all for you."

    Even if he thinks that what's going on and what he's doing is not OK, he'll still accept it, because it's for God's sake.

    "These words that I'm writing wont be misunderstood" Just a little note on this line. I think of the ones who wrote the bible when I hear this. It's like he's impersonating them, saying "There's no need to worry for me what I write down, people won't take these words the wrong way." and evidently, there is a lot of people who use the bible to explain their acts of hate, possibly having misinterpreted words in it.

    The more I look into it, the more I think of the song as anti-religious :S

    I think it's about those who rely to much on God and their religion and blind themselves from what they truly believe.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Magical
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 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.
