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.
Worship your body as you walk my way
Your the only one who can make me pray
I fall at your feet, your breath defined
And underneath my skins intrinsic shrine
Mm mm
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
I can fight but the devil wins
And i will fall like i sin new sins
Forgive me father i am weak
And it's not forgiveness that i seek
Mm mm
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
I'd rather drown in the ocean
Wither on the shore
Undying devotion, feel you in my core
Feneration, [?] got me high
Nothing without you, live for you t'ill i die
T'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die oh whoaa
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is
(your love)
Your the only one who can make me pray
I fall at your feet, your breath defined
And underneath my skins intrinsic shrine
Mm mm
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
I can fight but the devil wins
And i will fall like i sin new sins
Forgive me father i am weak
And it's not forgiveness that i seek
Mm mm
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
I'd rather drown in the ocean
Wither on the shore
Undying devotion, feel you in my core
Feneration, [?] got me high
Nothing without you, live for you t'ill i die
T'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die, t'ill i die oh whoaa
Drink my tears, i'm at your mercy
I love you most, but i'm not worthy
I'll give my soul, sacrifice me
Cause your love is holy
Is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is holy
Your love is
(your love)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Magical

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.
