「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
