Ed Sheeran - Even My Dad Does Sometimes Lyrics Meaning

This song really hits me in the heart. Whilst the true story is about his friend suffering from cancer, there are so many more meanings behind this.
Such as, the line, '... Death's the only thing you haven't tried,' can be interpreted into someone suffering emotionally, but isn't yet ready to give up their life yet.
This song tells everyone it's okay to break down and cry, it's okay to not be able to carry the burden, as long as you don't collapse underneath it and give up.
I feel like it's kind of using reverse psychology, by saying, '...So live life like you're giving up, because you act like you are,' and almost telling us that whilst you can break down, if you give up you're not gonna get anywhere.
