Something's wrong from the hilltop
I know you can't see
I look strong all together
Though inside I'm weak
Still I bleed
Still I wait to heal
A wound for my crime
What I need
Are more bandages
They've torn over time
[Chorus]
You shelter from the rain
Turn around walk away
Go now and don't look back
My life's come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me
I couldn't be who you wanted
Somewhere down the road
When I'm whole
When the rains are done
When I've reaped all I've sown
But here and now
On my hands and knees
I crawl through the ?
And your bead is so soft and warm
I'm weary and tired
[Chorus]
Leave me alone
I'll find another home
I'm on my knees
Crying out please
Go now and don't look back
My life's come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me
Free of me
I know you can't see
I look strong all together
Though inside I'm weak
Still I bleed
Still I wait to heal
A wound for my crime
What I need
Are more bandages
They've torn over time
[Chorus]
You shelter from the rain
Turn around walk away
Go now and don't look back
My life's come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me
I couldn't be who you wanted
Somewhere down the road
When I'm whole
When the rains are done
When I've reaped all I've sown
But here and now
On my hands and knees
I crawl through the ?
And your bead is so soft and warm
I'm weary and tired
[Chorus]
Leave me alone
I'll find another home
I'm on my knees
Crying out please
Go now and don't look back
My life's come off its tracks
And you should be
Free of me
Free of me

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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
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.
The missing word is "mire".
This is an amazing song. He's a wreck. He can't benefit anyone else so stop wasting time and energy on him. He's saying to just leave him begins because she can do much better and he doesn't want to hold her back. I know the feeling.
i LOVE LOVE LOOVE this song!
it's obviously about the fact that he doesn't feel ready or able to give her what she needs/deserves at the moment great song!
i'd be curious to know who this song is about. but he performs it AMAZINGLY. wow.
i think it's about a guy who isn't ready to settle down or give the girl what she wants and deserves from a relationship, and has no idea when he will get his ducks in a row, so he is cutting her loose. might or might not already be in a relationship but the guy doesn't want to drag her along.
Yeah the word you’re missing is mire. Fantastic song that’s gotten me through some really rough days post-breakup.
Also, I’ve seen different interpretations about the first line of the second verse. I think he’s actually saying “I COULD be who you wanted somewhere down the road...” It suggests the idea that he sees himself improving gradually and at some point he’ll be better but “here and now” all he can do is beg her to let him stay.
