I spend my time
Letting these hopeless thoughts run my life
Force me to hide
Just create a truth to all these lies

I will never be the same
So just leave me down while I'm separating
I could never give anymore
All these lies have left me torn

It's only this way falling on my own
I made this mess now its over
It was nobody's fault, it was all my own
Everything's wasted forever

The only hand
That I know how to hold belongs to me
How it began
What I though was right became my insecurity

I will never be the same
So just leave me down while I'm separating
I could never give anymore
All these lies have left me torn

It's only this way falling on my own
I made this mess now its over
It was nobody's fault, it was all my own
Everything's wasted forever

It's on my own
It's on my own

Weakness becomes me
My faults relieve me
My fear excludes me
Turns it against me
My fault
My fear
Turned it against me

It's only this way falling on my own
I made this mess now its over
It was nobody's fault, it was all my own
Everything's wasted forever

It's only this way falling on my own
It's only this way falling on my own
It's only this way falling on my own
It's only this way, it's only this way

It's on my own
It's on my own

    I think it's about being forced to believe lies and believing that you caused something that you didn't, you take the blame

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.
