About this song
Ed Sheeran said the song comes from his desire to be fully present as a new father. He wanted to cut back on partying and drinking so he could be ready to take his then-pregnant wife to the hospital whenever her water broke. The song is part of an album in which each track represents a specific moment in his life.
What it's about
The song looks back at past habits of constant drinking and late-night partying and the darker results those nights tend to bring, even when his intentions start out pure. The vampire costume in the music video reflects that darker side and the bad habits he carries.
