Bound For The Floor

Local H

Born to be down
I've learned all my lessons before now
Born to be down
I think you'll get used to it

And you just don't get it
You keep it copacetic
And you learn to accept it
You know it's so pathetic

Born to be down
I think that I've said this before now
Born to be down
What good is confidence?

And you just don't get it
You keep it copacetic
And you learn to accept it
You know it's so pathetic
And you don't

    The whole thing WOULD be nice.

    Born to be down I've learned all my lessons before now Born to be down I think you'll get used to it

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you don't And you don't And you don't And you don't

    Born to be down I think that I've said this before now Born to be down What good is confidence?

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you don't And you don't And you don't And you don't

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you don't And you don't And you don't And you don't

    And you don't And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you don't And you learn to accept it, you know it's pathetic And you don't And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you don't And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic And you just don't get it, you keep it copacetic And you learn to accept it, you know it's so pathetic

    And you don't

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
