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. After collaborating with Taylor Swift on a track for her album Red (2012), it was announced that Sheeran will appear as a special guest on Swift's seven-month Red Tour of North America in 2013.

White lips, pale face
Breathing in snowflakes
Burnt lungs, sour taste

Light's gone, days end
Struggling to pay rent
Long nights, strange men

And they say
She's in the class a team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18 
But lately, her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And she don't wanna go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Or sells love to another man
And it's too cold oustide
For angels to fly
For angels to fly

Ripped gloves, raincoat
Struggling to stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes

Loose change, bank notes
Weary eyed, dry throat
Call girl, no phone

And they say
She's in the class a team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately, her face seems
Slowing sinking wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And she don't wanna go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Or sells love to another man
And it's too cold outside
For angels to fly

An angel will die
Covered in white
Closed eye
And hoping for a better life

This time
We'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line

And they say
She's in the class a team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately, her face seems
Slowing sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
And go mad for a couple grams
And she don't wanna go outstide tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
Or sells love to another man
And it's too cold outside
For angels to fly

Angels to fly
To fly, to fly
For angels to fly
To fly, to fly
Or angels to die
