@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Now that I'm all alone
Painfully aware
I'm starting to feel the cold
Knowing you're not there
Caught somewhere between my fears and dreams
And all I have are demons here for company
Come and look inside, hope you like what you see
And if you run and hide, you're scared of what is me
Bind my idle hands, they only claw at me
Drown in emptiness, my soul is left to bleed
Throwing a shadow on
Every thought I have
Knowing that something's gone
Echo's in my head
Caught somewhere between my fears and dreams
And all I have are demons here for company
Come and look inside, hope you like what you see
And if you run and hide, you're scared of what is me
Bind my idle hands, they only claw at me
Drown in emptiness, my soul is left to bleed
Painfully aware

Bind my idle hands, they only claw at me
Drown in emptiness, my soul is left to bleed
Throwing a shadow on

Caught somewhere between my fears and dreams
And all I have are demons here for company

Bind my idle hands, they only claw at me
Drown in emptiness, my soul is left to bleed

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
Classic, that's all i have to say!
Best song by Damageplan, they are so kickass, but dammit too bad Dimebag had to get killed >_
(R.I.P Dimebag) Best song on the cd, the whole cd is kickass though and dimebag is one of the best guitarist ever.*
This song is awsome, i fell in love with it the first time i heard it. Dimebag lives on through his music, he will be missed.
It's the usual boy loses girl song, but a real surprise standout song. It's Dimebag's beautiful final gift.
R.I.P Dime, we miss u... This song is so sad...It brings memories about death of great artist:(
The song is truly a great work of art. The song can mean many poetic things. Its something everyone in a dark state can relate to. I've said it once i'll say it a thousand times. The best written song is one that many can relate to, and feel the writers sorrow. The song has a beautiful solo too! Very trippy
I agree pantera9296. people should interpret lyrics however they want, or else music would be boring if you didn't use your imagination. to me i felt dime and vinnie's pain during the pantera hiatus when they were waiting on rex and phil to make a move and figure out what was the fate of pantera. it is exactly what i would feel like if i were in dime or vinnie's shoes during that time
Wow, such an amazing song. I totally agree agree with pantera9296 about great songs being open to the listener's interpretation so it relates to everyone. When I listen to this song it makes me think of Vinnie's pain after that tragic night, December 8th 2004 at the Alrosa Villa. RIP Dime, you are missed...your music and memory will live on forever.
