Ed Sheeran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing left to see
If it hurts and you can't take no more
Lay it all on me
No you don't have to keep it on a locking key
'Cause I will never let you down
And if you can't escape all your uncertainties
Let my love in, let my love in
Lay your heart on me
If you're hurting, if you're hurting
Lay it all on me
You can lay it all on me
(Lay it all on me)
You can lay it all on me
If you're hurting, if you're hurting
Lay it all on me
If you're scared when you're out on your own
Just remember me
'Cause I won't let you go, let alone
Lay it all on me
No you don't have to keep it on a locking key
'Cause I will never let you down
And if you can't escape all your uncertainties
Baby I can show you how
Let my love in, let my love in
Lay your heart on me
If you're hurting, if you're hurting
Lay it all on me
You can lay it all on me
(Lay it all on me)
You can lay it all on me
If you're hurting, if you're hurting
Lay it all on me
So if you're hurting babe
Just let your heart be free
You got a friend in me
I'll be your shoulder at anytime you need
Baby I believe
So if you're hurting babe
Just let you're heart be free
You got a friend in me

The lyrics to Ed Sheeran and Rudimental's "Lay It All On Me" speak to the idea of being there for someone who is hurting or struggling. The song begins with the image of someone standing alone looking through a door, feeling like there's nothing left to see. The lyrics encourage this person to "lay it all" on the singer, to share their pain and struggles rather than keeping them locked away.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the idea of letting love in and allowing oneself to be vulnerable. The singer offers their love and support, urging the person to share their heart and burdens with them. They promise to never let them down even when faced with uncertainties.
In the second verse, the lyrics again address the idea of being scared and alone, reminding the person that they are not alone and that the singer won't leave them. The bridge repeats the idea that the singer is there to support the person in any way they need, as a shoulder to cry on and a friend to lean on.
Overall, the song is a powerful reminder of the importance of being there for each other and supporting one another through difficult times. It emphasizes the value of vulnerability and the power of love and human connection.
