「ed sheeran」- original song.
hello hello!
here is song #15 - ed sheeran aka. ed:
meaning
it’s more or less about commuting, how i so not wanted to commute this much again. i wrote the song in august.
but now, i’m more at peace with commuting and i enjoy spending time on the tram and train reading and listening to music. it’s nice going out (even though i don’t really enjoy the darkness).
i wrote it from a perspective where the person is kind of in a state of gloom.
the happy melody part have sad lyrics and the sad melody part have cheerful lyrics.
creative process
had a slow start, the first production time was last sunday.
so after 4 weeks of slacking of when it comes to music production after work, i started to produce 4 am instead before going to the office. it works well! 5 days straight of morning music. i’ll continue to produce in the morning instead of 7 pm.
it reminds me of the quote:
”If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning. And If it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest one first.”

lyrics
i’m a ball of anxiety
i’m spinning free
but trying to put me back
rolling down the same old street
where misery meets
to talk some good shit and move on
i’m a cloud of the same old grey
i’m taking shape
and making my way to the
train station
again and again
i see the same pattern
and listen to ED
if time would just slow down
words struck a chord with me
whatever it takes to turn it around
shifting useless feelings
helpful thoughts fade in and fade out
i’m the storm begins in the night
wakes up to fright
to find something to forget
i’m the storm that breaks away trust
blows away lust
it’s dark in the daylight
if time would just slow down
words struck a chord with me
whatever it takes to turn it around
shifting useless feelings
helpful thoughts fade in and fade out
words struck a chord with me
whatever it takes to turn it around
shifting useless feelings
helpful thoughts fade in and fade out
fade in and fade out
