This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I was lost for a while
I was knee deep in denial
I was lost for a while
Without my stride my step my style
It took a lot of digging up bones
In my backyard nightly
I'm half a bottle in
I'm just now feeling feisty
A few things could slip
So you'll have to forgive me
No more walking the line
I'm getting downright frisky
I've kept it clean, but now it's high time
For every dirty, awful word
You've had your chance to make your peace
But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.
This is the 'Fuck You' to Richard Reines
Who told me I should lose some weight
Come to think of the pain you do
You screwed our fans, so we screwed you
And up to this point, I think we've been pretty cool
About losing tours to bands with only half of our pull
I wouldn't call it bitter, but I've grown to feel slighted
There's a party going on, we're living life uninvited
've kept it clean, but now it's high time
For every dirty, awful word
You've had your chance to make your peace
But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.
I was knee deep in denial
I was lost for a while
Without my stride my step my style
It took a lot of digging up bones
In my backyard nightly
I'm half a bottle in
I'm just now feeling feisty
A few things could slip
So you'll have to forgive me
No more walking the line
I'm getting downright frisky
I've kept it clean, but now it's high time
For every dirty, awful word
You've had your chance to make your peace
But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.
This is the 'Fuck You' to Richard Reines
Who told me I should lose some weight
Come to think of the pain you do
You screwed our fans, so we screwed you
And up to this point, I think we've been pretty cool
About losing tours to bands with only half of our pull
I wouldn't call it bitter, but I've grown to feel slighted
There's a party going on, we're living life uninvited
've kept it clean, but now it's high time
For every dirty, awful word
You've had your chance to make your peace
But now I'm gonna make sure this hurts
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.
Yeah, this is Shock.
This is Awe.
This is War.

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.
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.
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.
This song is obviously about how badly Drive-Thru Records screwed them over (Richard Reines being one of the owners), they seem to do that to a lot of bands, 1 being I Am The Avalanche, who haven't released a record since '05, they do it all the time, and it seems like all their release dates always get pushed back as well... its sad this used to be my fav label n have a lot of my fav bands
Anyway great song, its good someone took a shot at em, n if he really told em to lose weight that's pretty fucked up
