Poor Larrie - you must really have struggled in literature classes! Walls is about a break up, the two years apart, and then the reconciliation and realisation that 'we made it' and everything is 'perfect now.'
All Louis' songs except for Just Hold On, Two of Us and Fearless are about Eleanor or have significant references to her.
Let me explain the song meanings to you in simple terms:
Love You Goodbye - I really don't want this to be over but please let's have sex one more time anyway.
Back to You - I'm in another relationship with an actress but it's volatile and I can't see it lasting, plus 'I always thought I'd be with someone else/Thought I would own the way I felt.'
Just Like You - 'I want to lay where she lays.'
Miss You - I've realised that life isn't the same without you but I don't think you feel the same.
Kill My Mind: I'm partying and taking drugs to try and recreate the high I felt with you: 'On a mission just to feel like/When I kissed you for the last time.'
Don't Let it Break Your Heart - this break up really hurts but I'm trying to stay positive.
Habit - more about how I can't live without you.
Too Young - I wish we hadn't split in the first place.
Defenceless - I really want to get back together but you've got your walls up.
Walls - I'm naturally a guarded person but all MY walls come falling down for you. You're my reason for living!
Always You - there's never been anyone else for me! Let's go to Amsterdam again and get stoned.
We Made It - ten years after our first meeting, we're still together!
Perfect Now - don't ever feel self conscious because you're my ideal woman.
Only the Brave - love can hurt but it's worth it.
