I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
These days it seems as though, I've lived a lonely life time because I never had a girl like you to hold me tight. and since you came around and you showed your world to me I'm beginning to think that ill never be blue again...
now that you're in my life, you are my brightest day when you came you chased my blues away. and you know you're all that i been waiting on
and all the stars i wish upon
and so i said thank you, for being there because you and me are gonna be alright
so thank you for lovin me long, because you and me are gonna be alright
well, anytime or day, you wreck my bed (?), since the words you spoke go round my head and you know you're all that i been waitin for
yeah you're the queen of all my dreams
and so i said thank you for being there because you and me are gonna be alright
I'm on my knees (on my knees) its days like these (days like these) when all i see (all i see) is you and me
these days it seems as though I've lived a lonely life time because I've never had a girl like you to hold me tight and since you come around and showed your world to me I'm beginning to think ill never be blue anymore
now that you're in my life you are my brightest day since you came you chased my blues away
and you know you're all that i been waitin on yeah
and all the stars i wish upon
i said thank you oh for being there because you and me will always be alright
so thank you for loving me like you did before cause you and me are gonna be alright
now that you're in my life, you are my brightest day when you came you chased my blues away. and you know you're all that i been waiting on
and all the stars i wish upon
and so i said thank you, for being there because you and me are gonna be alright
so thank you for lovin me long, because you and me are gonna be alright
well, anytime or day, you wreck my bed (?), since the words you spoke go round my head and you know you're all that i been waitin for
yeah you're the queen of all my dreams
and so i said thank you for being there because you and me are gonna be alright
I'm on my knees (on my knees) its days like these (days like these) when all i see (all i see) is you and me

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
Sure they sound like a knock off of the beatles but there still pretty good. I liked it.
This song is obvious. He's in love with this girl who has brightened up his life. It's a very sweet song.
i wish i knew the [somthing somthing somthing].
it always sounds like 'get your pony there' to me. but that doesn't make sense. half of the things people think they hear don't make sense, i think he's just scatting, or something.
I think he cheated on the girl he's singing to. "...for loving me LIKE YOU DID BEFORE." Before? Most of the song is about his love for her and how amazing she is. But I really think she is giving him a second chance. Surely he felt bad about cheating and really is sorry; so he wrote this song for her to show how much he actually does care. He had to include the "before" part just to clarify that he screwed up and that she is better than him. I think he's saying "thank you" not only because of how wonderful she is and because of the positive impact she's had on his life, but also for giving him a second chance.
