    Lyrics:
    Sadness always finds an in
    Sneaks its way past infecting everything
    And every chapter has an end
    But this is one momentous sequel don’t you think?
    And the blackbirds they fly
    Like a frown on the skyline
    Right now I feel I’m running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I’m stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Guess I should take this on the chin
    But I don’t even know how all of this began
    We are made to mould and bend
    How can I wish for nothing when it’s still a sin?
    Right now I feel I’m running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I’m stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Tears never arrive
    These ducts are dry
    We are so blind
    Waiting on the borderline
    Waiting on the borderline
    So I will pour another drink
    And try to drown the pain with salt along the rim
    And I’ll shut off the things I think
    ‘Coz nothing good will ever come from worrying
    Right now I feel I’m running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I’m stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Tears never arrive
    These ducts are dry
    We are so blind

      You should check out the video: "Ed Sheeran - Give me love performance (best live version) - 2014" and skip to like 8 minutes. He sings these high notes and loops them live so they sound like the violins that are suppose to be in the song. It is without a doubt his best live performance.

  • @Westlifeclips

    "Borderline" (Lyrics)
    Sadness always finds an in
    Sneaks its way past, infecting everything
    And every chapter has an end
    But this is one momentous sequel, don't you think?
    And the blackbirds, they fly
    Like a frown on the skyline
    Right now, I feel I'm running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I'm stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Guess I should take this on the chin
    But I don't even know how all of this began
    We are made to mould and bend
    How can I wish for nothing when it's still a sin?
    Right now, I feel I'm running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I'm stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Tears never arrive
    These ducts are dry
    We are so blind
    Waiting on the borderline
    Waiting on the borderline
    So, I will pour another drink
    And try to drown the pain with salt along the rim
    And I'll shut off the things I think
    'Cause nothing good will ever come from worrying
    Right now, I feel I'm running from the light
    Engulfed in darkness
    Shielded from my eyes
    One foot in, one out
    I'm stuck on the borderline
    Which way will I?
    Tears never arrive
    These ducts are dry
    We are so blind

    This song and video perfectly captures the feeling of grief, depression, and even suicidal ideation. The feelings so bleak, the pain that roots you so strongly in the present where you can't even imagine tomorrow, yet the feelings are so strong that you'd rather be anywhere else but in your body right now. The invisible half-deadness of walking around with the weight of it all, feeling like no one can possibly see or understand, and you just want to be left alone. What's also expressed is that tomorrow is real and can be so powerful, and people can relate and understand if you let them in. Grief can be isolating, but it doesn't have to be. That is the borderline, the choice between hiding or wanting to give up and run away, or staying, facing it with courage (even when it's scary) and letting love in.

    This video was filmed on Southwold pier, UK.
    Running the full length of the handrails all round the pier are brass plaques in memory of the loss of loved ones.
    My dad died suddenly in 2001 when the pier was being rebuilt. He loved Southwold.
    He never got to see it finished so we had one of these plaques fitted.
    "Nigel, your a part of it, love Jane, James and Emma"
    So this video for me is extremely close to my heart. The way the people walk through him got the tears flowing

    "And the black birds they fly
    Like a frown on the skyline"
    So poetic. It conveys the feeling that even the world is bitter about your existence. It really is a mellifluos expression of depression. Love you Ed.

    This song is huge in meaning. Sometimes I come back here, when the anxiety is bigger than my dreams and hope. And in this place where I heard it for the first time, I listen to each part, decoding this message like a child discovering a new world. It's my tree house. My shelter.

It's bringing me hope, just because it's beautiful. And at the end of the day when life is so grey, the only thing holding us here is beauty.

    Haunting. The first time I heard this on the digital album before the videos were released, I kept searching the internet to find the female vocalist who accompanied Ed. Wow. Surprised the heck out of me. Ed can reach those high notes with beauty. I was instantly hooked on this song.

      It surprises me that a few people havent heard his falsetto much before, did you guys not listen to “dark times” with the weeknd years ago?

    Ed. I struggle with Broderline Personality Disorder. This song holds a complete deeper meaning to me - unless that is exactly what you’re writing about. I lost it when I heard this song. You captured my mind in this. This is what it’s like. You are incredible.
