Edit Lyrics

There's still so far to go and I can't feel my toes When the rain soaks through the hills and slips to the sole Yeah, the blades are two feet tall I wade in green, I'm movin' forward to where God only knows Feel the wind's harsh refrain and the clouds grip my face Saying, "it's alright to run from all this pain" Oh, when it's time to go with one last breath that's in my lungs I scream, "It's all for love", I scream, "It's all for love" Come and kiss me, saltwater Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees I'm free in saltwater Embrace the deep and leave everything It was just a dream I can see it up ahead where the sky meets the ground And after that, there's only moving grey I am filled up with regret With things I did or never said, just leave that, well, alone And, come kiss me, saltwater Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees I'm free in saltwater Embrace the deep and leave everything It was just a dream Ah-ah, it was just a dream It was just a dream Ah-ah, it was just a dream Was it just a dream? Now, I'm standing on the edge, gazing into Hell Or is it somethin' else? I just can't tell And when there's nothin' left, I close my eyes and take one step And say, "Well, here it goes", say, "Well, here it goes" Come kiss me, saltwater Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees I'm free in saltwater Embrace the deep and leave everything It was just a dream

The song is about embracing suicide by drowning in salt water. It is the longest and the darkest song on Subtract, with Ed baring the darkness of his soul. It is perhaps the heaviest track Sheeran has ever released.
