“Bed Song” is structured like a diary entry. The first line was picked to work as a lyric, despite the fact that the date implies it was written in 2010. The rest of the song follows the idea of writing it down whilst lying in bed not able to move or leave it. That is, until the end of the song
Sunday 26th of September
Feeling like I'm dead
People say it’s only in my head
Even though I'm healthy and alive
Something seems to hold me back
Every day and every night
Nothing seems to ease the pain
I'm lost in a mind without an end
Fixed in a bed without any chains
I’m locked in a room without a key
I'm trapped without escape
I know that they are out there
Having fun without me, even though it's all my fault
I'm all to blame
They don't even listen to what I have to say
I'm lost in a mind without an end
Fixed in a bed without any chains
I'm locked in a room without a key
I'm trapped without escape
But maybe I’m wrong to think there’s a way out
Even though it seems so hard
I need to move on
Change my life somehow
Learn from my mistakes and become a better person
Leaving this cage will be tough
But nothing is stopping me now
I'm waking up for the first time in my life
I’m found in a mind without an end
Freed from a bed without any chains
I'm leaving a room without a key
But I'm still lost without the ones that care for me
