Lyrics:
Got a call from my mother who wishes she was here
A couple cards in the post that I’m reading
I want the warmth of the summer, the cold too cold to bear
The only plus is the sweater, I need it
I broke apart from my lover a couple months ago
If they were here then I guess I wouldn’t be alone
This is the life in the city and that’s the way it goes
But it’s a fine excuse just to leave it
I hit em up and I asked are you coming over?
All I got was a shrug and an I don’t know
Everyone I know is hidden away
Trying to make their bodies clean again
And they don’t want to celebrate
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
Always the month when parties come to an end
The same excuses from every friend
Another year and now we’re here again
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
Another birthday alone
I hit a bar in town, give my card to start a tab
Every day that we’re here well we’re never getting back
So I’ll drink for the confidence coz that’s what I lack
And end up talking to strangers and find another plan
I end the night in cab, head spinning on my own
Watching pointless shit and flicking through my phone
Would April be better? I guess I’ll never know
I take the keys from my pocket and stumble into home
I feel low but I guess I could feel lower
I’m heading down and now I’m on a roll
Everyone I know is hidden away
Trying to make their bodies clean again
And they don’t want to celebrate
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
Always the month when parties come to an end
The same excuses from every friend
Another year and now we’re here again
Nobody cares this is the day I was born
Another birthday alone

[@Infertilewithaturtle]

How many of y'all have spent at least one birthday alone... 🙋🏼‍♀️ Cheers to Ed for recognizing this

[@cindis8938]

the last five alone and ten since i’ve done anything for my bday. 😔

[@Infertilewithaturtle]

@@cindis8938 I am right there with you, my friend 💜 When is your birthday?

[@prabalpanda0786]

For 16 years, continuously spending it alone without friends. Common in India. 😅😅

[@JamarHenry-od7km]

Almost every birthday alone 😢

[@rmac1199]

As a man from a much older generation. A generation that grew up with music being a man or Woman With a guitar, banjo, mandolin or piano and their voice. This young man epitomizes the icon of musician. He is a true artist. Give him a guitar and he can blow people's minds with his voice and a guitar.

[@t-ark9920]

I'm right there with you! Ed is a true artist.❤

[@shivansh4968]

his voice directly sent from god

[@Mommy2Kalila]

Tomorrow is my birthday... I can't remember the last time we celebrated. Last year I had dinner and watched TV with my kids. The year before I sat alone in my bed crying, eating stale Cheerios from the box. My own parents haven't bothered to call the past couple years. Tomorrow won't be any different from any other day. I never expect a big celebration, but it'd be nice if someone, anyone, cared. Love this song, especially feeling how I have the last decade of lonely birthdays.

I relate to this song so much. I hate my birthday ( in autumn ) its always so gloomy and a bad day. But this year may be differnt The week of my Birthday I will be in Vegas at an Ed Sheeran concert.

[@Autumnsings98]

@@Autumnsings98 Thank you so much for your kind coment.

[@brinduc]

I am also born in October, a day before Halloween, in Transylvania (Romania). and I used to hate it when I was younger too. But now I love my autumn 🍁 birthday. The air is clear and the colors are beautiful. Children are happy in their costumes and adults are too. I wish you the best birthday this year. Sending hugs and autumn leaves 🍁

[@shareeinfanger5308]

​@@brinduc I dont't think its because its in October I think its just simply I don't like my birthday in general. Autumn winter spring or summer. But this year should be better.

[@PROD5VE]

Ed Sheeran is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.

[@abrahamfragoso5257]

[@NormanVReyes]

When I was in highschool, I was in a circle of 6 friends wherein we celebrate each others birthday by surprise. We contribute to buy cake and gifts and have fun. Except me. They never did me once. To top it all, they didnt even remember my birthday. Its not like i am waiting for something in return, its just hurts to know that they dont trear and think of me the same as i do. Friends can break your heart too.
