am i confusing you with lots of stuff with no meaning? i can't help myself. i wake up in the morning, just like you there's no difference. i know sometimes you can't deal with me. i'm always pointing out stuff, you pointed out yesterday. i'm so annoying i wish i'd shut up. why can't you tell me that you hate me? you know you have nothing to lose. are you scared to hurt my feelings? don't you know i know the truth? so where are you right now? i bet i'm so far out of your mind. maybe you'll just drop by. i bet you wouldn't waste your time. i'm so scared now. you can't deal with me. maybe i'm an emotional case, that could use some fixing. you tried telling me that i was a friend to you. but by the look on your face anyone could tell you're lying. i know you hate my guts and i hope you never get your hands on me. i really wish i was someone else today.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
