can you post ffmpeg -i for the file? It's possible the files are DRMed (if bought on iTunes) and will only play on iOS device

lyrics : There's a fire starting in my heart Reaching a fever pitc
h and it's bringing me out the dark Finally I can see you crystal clear Go ahe
ad and sell me out and I'll lay your shit bare See how I'll leave with every p
iece of you Don't underestimate the things that I will do There's a fire start
ing in my heart Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringing me out the dark The
scars of your love remind me of us They keep me thinking that we almost had it
all The scars of your love, they leave me breathless I can't help feeling We
could have had it all (You're gonna wish you never had met me) Rolling in the
deep (Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep) You had my heart inside your
hand (You're gonna wish you never had met me) And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep) Baby I have no story to be told B
ut I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn Think of me in the d
epths of your despair Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared T
