Devlin
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
There must be some kind of way out of here
2
Said the joker to the thief, yeah
3
There's too much confusion
4
Mmm I can't get no relief
5
[Verse 1: Devlin]
6
Yeah
7
I see jokers on my left, thieves upon my right
8
You'd find me in the middle if I picked a different life
9
Before my name started tripling in size
10
But I'm still showing signs...
11
In the pitch black, it's too cold
12
I'm all alone take me back to the roads
13
I had to rode to get here and I'll hitch back
14
Get a cab to my mother's house
15
See my old man and grab a six pack
16
Tell my brother I love him
17
And give him something that will see him through the hard times
18
What's a brother for?
19
When I'm sick of this life I see
20
It has to be my family who lift me off the floor
21
Make sense of all the madness in a world full of money, full of tears full or war.
22
I was a failed man and worse I couldn't give a fuck
23
Save your wine for the entrepreneurs
24
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]
25
All along the watchtower
26
Princes kept the view
27
While all the women came and went
28
Barefoot servants too, yeah
29
Outside in the cold distance
30
A wildcat did growl
31
Two riders were approaching
32
And the wind began to howl
33
[Verse 2: Devlin]
34
Cause your world is the same as mine
35
Pour more blood in your cup
36
Take a sip full of sin and let your taste buds savour the buzz
37
The flavour of an ill-mannered nature
38
That lingers on as animals in all of us
39
Trying to fight for the right to live a life
40
But some will never win though
41
That's why they live a lie
42
I don't think I'll ever win
43
All of this is anything
44
When I die I hope a brother's at my side
45
There's no trap door, or get out clause
46
The world can be your oyster or a set of jail doors
47
You've seen mine, I think it's time I see yours
48
I bet you that we've been scarred by the same swords
49
Some are lost some are...
50
Apart from the fact I live my life in the light and now I'm trapped in it
51
The way I feel within a few years time
52
I might have a couple kids and just forget I ever wrote this
53
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]
54
All along the watchtower
55
Princes kept the view
56
While all the women came and went
57
Barefoot servants too, yeah
58
Outside in the cold distance
59
A wildcat did growl
60
Two riders were approaching
61
And the wind began to howl
62
[Verse 3: Devlin]
63
Take away the treasure of a man
64
Convinced that he holds heaven in his hands
65
Even though I ain't religious I'm a little superstitious
66
Maybe there is a promised land
67
But will I make it or not is a different matter
68
I've been a joker, I've been a thief, I've been a rapper
69
I've been the only enemy that I can never beat
70
Give me a piece of mind upon a platinum platter
71
[Chorus: Ed Sheeran]
72
All along the watchtower
73
Princes kept the view
74
While all the women came and went
75
Barefoot servants too, yeah
76
Outside in the cold distance
77
A wildcat did growl
78
Two riders were approaching
79
And the wind began to howl
