When I came here there was more
Now I've come back to destroy
And I've got nothing left

And it's a shame what we've become
When we hurt the ones we love
And it's a place I cannot go...
Anymore

When we collide we lose ourselves
When we collide we break in two
And as we push and we shove
And we hurt the ones we love
It's a hard mistake
When we collide
We break

When the cold comes crashing down
And the fight lost what it's about
I could tell that you'd left

And it's a shame what we've become
When we hurt the ones we love
And it's a place I cannot go...
Anymore

When we collide we lose ourselves
When we collide we break in two
And as we push and we shove
And we hurt the ones we love
It's a hard mistake
When we collide
When we collide
It's a hard mistake
When we collide

It's a mistake

When we collide we lose ourselves
When we collide we break in two
And as we push and we shove
And we hurt the ones we love
It's a hard mistake
When we collide
When we collide
It's a hard mistake
When we collide
We break
We break

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
