Well it might not be important to you now
When the night is young and everyone's around
And the music flows
Through your doped up Disney mind.

But you'll be crying like a baby when it comes
And you will try it anyway you can
To find a place to run, 'cause it ain't no fun
In party town, when loneliness comes crashing down.

And you'll be hurting in a way you can't explain,
And all those pretty things you love will look so vain.
'cause the laughing crowd is such a hopeless sound
When loneliness comes crashing down,
Yeah, when loneliness comes crashing down.

And you might not think about
Just what happens now as your guests collect their coats.
In an empty house full of ashtray doubts
Your formless future floats.

So the bad and beautiful still remain
With their depleted bounty of bad cocaine, we love the house
But we can't quite place the name.

And it might not be important to you now,
When the night is young and you are loose and loud.
'cause there ain't no sound in party town
Quite like loneliness crashing down.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Blue
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.

Page
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.
