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.
"I am the light that shall lead you to darkness"
Well, here I am, I´m back again
From the Deadlands I descendâ?¦
back from the dead, back from The End
I´m here to take Revenge!
Soon the deathly dusk will fall
and the Night I´ve waited for
At the dawn you´ll live no more
Breathing through Deathâ?¦ Living for Bloodshedâ?¦
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I live to kill and kill to live
And long for dying endlessly
Each time I kill I´m born again
I have become The End
Thus I am and thus I´ll die
yet another thousand times
I am dead and I am alive
Take a deep breathâ?¦
It's the last one you will get!
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I´m the Suicider seeking for the End of Life
(But) killing me is not enough to cease the flame inside
Thus I kill and thus I'll dieâ?¦
Thus I will live for all time
[Chorus]
Well, here I am, I´m back again
From the Deadlands I descendâ?¦
back from the dead, back from The End
I´m here to take Revenge!
Soon the deathly dusk will fall
and the Night I´ve waited for
At the dawn you´ll live no more
Breathing through Deathâ?¦ Living for Bloodshedâ?¦
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I live to kill and kill to live
And long for dying endlessly
Each time I kill I´m born again
I have become The End
Thus I am and thus I´ll die
yet another thousand times
I am dead and I am alive
Take a deep breathâ?¦
It's the last one you will get!
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I´m the Suicider seeking for the End of Life
(But) killing me is not enough to cease the flame inside
Thus I kill and thus I'll dieâ?¦
Thus I will live for all time
[Chorus]

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”
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
I can't believe no one has commented on this one... I guess the title says it all, a dark song...
but not less brilliant...sigh
Amazing song. This is one of my favorite choruses... Yeah, the meaning is straight forward...Some kinda symbolic character of suicide.. Ahhh...a few sentences won't do this song justice..but oh well :P
this song is one of the best ever i think this song is dealing with the concept of immortality and how iit will eventually all grow old and the thrill of life will fade until your driven to seek a way out
