Quiet Ballad of Ed

Ed Sheeran

Transposer:

In shadow there lies hope Cut tension with a knife I find it hard to cope Stop playing with my life You analyse my fears Analyse my dreams Choke on burning tears Through my silent screams Things aren't what they seem Tell a hundred craftsmen to work on me Tell this army of angels to make me breathe Open doors just to take away the key I'll let you all see that I'm doing better Watch me fall As I stumble at your feet Always losing in this game Your lies cut me deep And you don't even know my name With your consistency To always watch me crawl And my durability Not affected at all Still things aren't what they seem Tell a hundred craftsmen to work on me Tell this army of angels to make me breathe Open doors just to take away the key I'll let you all see that I'm doing better That I'm doing better Feel the pain On my brain Feel the strain As I start to decay Feel the strain Every passing day Feel the pain As I start to decay Tell a hundred craftsmen to work on me Tell this army of angels to make me breathe Open doors just to take away the key I'll let you all see that I'm doing better

La chanson évoque une lutte intérieure marquée par la douleur et l'espoir. L'artiste exprime la difficulté de vivre en étant constamment analysé et jugé, se sentant comme un pion dans un jeu où il finit souvent par perdre. Malgré les larmes et les souffrances, il aspire à montrer qu'il s'en sort, même si cela contraste avec la perception que les autres ont de lui. Le contexte semble refléter une quête d'identité et de résilience face aux tumultes émotionnels. Il y a une forte dynamique de lutte contre les attentes et les pressions extérieures, tout en cherchant désespérément un moyen de respirer et d'avancer.
