"Bloodstream" - Ed Sheeran [YouTube Audio + Lyrics]

Today, Ed Sheeran released his new single, "Bloodstream." You can listen to it above via YouTube.

While the British singer is known for his somber and poetic lyrics, "BloodStream" is easily his most forlorn song yet. As melancholy as the new single may be, it is still beautiful and it captures Sheeran's raw talent as both a lyricist and an instrumentalist. With its artistic lyrics and powerful chorus, "Bloodstream" follows in the tradition of last year's "I See Fire."

Ed Sheeran "Bloodstream" lyrics

I’ve been spinning out for time
Couple women by my side
I got sin on my mind
Sipping on red wine
I’ve been sitting here for ages
Ripping out the pages
How to get so faded
How to get so faded
Oh
No no don’t leave me lonely now
If you love me how
You never loved me
Ooh
Color crimson in my eyes
Wanted too you could free my mind
This is how it ends
I feel the chemicals burning in my bloodstream

Fading out again
I feel the chemicals burning in my bloodstream
So tell me when it kicks in
So tell me when it kicks in

I’ve been looking for a love
Thought I’d find it really boring
God make me another one
I’ll be feeling this tomorrow
Lord forgive me for the things I’ve done
I was never meant to hurt no one
I saw scars upon her broken heart
Oh
No no don’t leave me lonely now
If you love me how
You never loved
Ooh
Color crimson in my eyes
Wanted too you could free my mind
This is how it ends
I feel the chemicals burning in my bloodstream

Fading out again
I feel the chemicals burning in my bloodstream
So tell me when it kicks in
So tell me when it kicks in
So tell me when it kicks in

All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line
All the voices in my mind
Calling out across the line

Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
So Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
Tell me when it kicks in
I saw scars upon her
Tell me when it kicks in
Broken heart
