Edward Christopher "Ed" Sheeran (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter and producer. He was born in Halifax, before moving to Framlingham. He learned to play guitar and started writing songs at a young age. He began recording in 2005 and moved to London in 2008 to pursue a music career. In 2009, he played 312 gigs. In early 2011, Sheeran released an independent extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project which led him to be signed to Asylum / Atlantic Records. Buoyed by the commercial breakthrough of the singles "The A Team" and "Lego House", his debut album + has been certified quintuple platinum in the United Kingdom. In 2012, he won two BRIT Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist, and British Breakthrough of the Year, while "The A Team" also won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically.

I gave all my oxygen to people that could breathe
Gave away my money and now we don't even speak
I drove miles and miles
But would you do the same for me
Oh honestly
Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon
Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm
They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song 
It goes on and on
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I'll drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me
They just left me on a shelf; no farewell
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
I gave you all my energy
And I took away your pain
Cause human beings are destined to radiate or drain
What line do we stand upon
Cause from here it looks the same
And only scars remain
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I'll drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me
They just left me on a shelf; no farewell
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
And if I don't
Then I'll go back
To where I'm rescuing a stranger just because they needed saving just like that
I'm here again
Between the devil and the danger but I guess it's just my nature
My dad was wrong, cause I'm not like my mom
Cause she just smiled and I'm complaining in a song
But it helps
So before I save someone else; I've got to save myself
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I'll drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me
They just left me on a shelf; no farewell
So before I save someone else; I've got to save myself
And before I blame someone else; I've got to save myself
And before I love someone else; I've got to love myself
