Call Me A Fool

Live

I can't believe I finally found
The key, the door, the trip
It was all in my mind
Now I'm one with the fools of love

I can't believe I finally found
The prisoner, the free man
Were all in my mind
Now I'm one with the fools of love

These fools of love are misunderstood
The history is with me now

I can't believe my core was shaken
I gave up the ghost
Of everything I was before
Now I'm one with the fools of love

These fools of love are misunderstood
The mystery is with me now

So call me a fool
Call me a fool
Call me a fool

I can't believe my dream is over
I woke up this morning
With nothing but light in my eyes
Now I'm one with the fools of love

I can't believe the key, the door
The clouds that blocked the sun
They were all in my mind
Now I'm one with the fools of love

And these fools of love are misunderstood
The history is with me now

So call me a fool
Call me a fool
Call me a fool

    Am I the only one who interprets the reference to the key and the door as an allusion to Lyra's realization near the end of The Amber Spyglass?

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
