Yes to all of this!
I'm going to start listening to it again tomorrow am. Its been a few weeks since I last listened.

It's weird once in a while I'll catch a song off Gigaton on Sirius and for the first 30 secs I'm really into it but as the song goes on I begin to lose interest and then I change the channel.

What is the first line of the verse after the "we are each of us fucked" bit? To this day, I still can't figure it out.

I was hoping the live performances would shed some light but alas no.

yeah I think it's that
I mean, I know Ed mumbles but for anyone confused it's literally in the lyric booklet

Just b/c Ed wrote down a lyric doesn't mean that's what he sings.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

it doesn't matter what he sings live; there is an objective answer to the question: "What is the first line of the verse after the "we are each of us fucked" bit? To this day, I still can't figure it out."

Cheeky!
I've read through the lyric booklet a dozen times. Unfortunately this one isn't in there, at least not how Ed sings it.

It's definitely not this. It sounds more like "I'm in danger/singing in the distance" or something like that.

I mean, the lyric in the booklet is the real lyric, Eddie just slurred and mangled it in the vocal take they wanted on the record. That's how this works, right?
