Everything in moderation, that's the way it's always been
Never gettin' out of control never hanging it out
Always reelin' it in
I saved my money for a rainy day
But now I've had enough of playin' it safe
I want to go too far, I want to go too fast
Somebody draw the line so I can blow right past
I want to spend too much, I want to stay too late
I'm gonna roar too loud, I'm gonna be that way
I want to play too hard, I want to go too far

I'm the one they all depend on
Sensible, predictable, and strong
But every now and then,
I feel like I've played that role too long
I need to rock the boat, I need to speak my mind
Just this once let it all unwind

I want to go too far, I want to go too fast
Somebody draw the line so I can blow right past
I want to spend too much, I want to stay too late
I'm gonna roar too loud, I'm gonna be that way
I want to play too hard, I want to go too far

I've gotta set this spirit free
That's hiding here inside
I feel like a bird in a cage
It's time for me to fly

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”

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.
