@[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.
Hey!
(hey, hey,)
Yeah, yeah (yeah!)
Yeah, yeah (yeah!)
I've got a wound that doesn't heal,
Burning out again,
Burning out again
I've not sure which of me is real,
And I'm alone again,
Burning out again
My hope runs underneath it all,
The day that I'll be home
It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong
Yeah, yeah, (yeah!)
Yeah, yeah, (yeah!)
Something shared with me again,
But I'm not buying it,
I'm not buying it
My wound goes deeper than the skin,
There's no hiding it,
So I'm not trying it
My hope runs underneath it all,
The day that I'll be home,
It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun,
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong
Yeah, yeah, (somewhere past the setting sun!)
Yeah, yeah, (yeah!)
Yeah, yeah, (going back where we belong!)
Yeah, yeah, (I'll find you,)
(the setting sun!)
Let the weak say I am strong, and it won't be long,
Let the rat say I was wrong, and it won't be wrong,
Let us find where we belong,
Beyond the setting sun,
Beyond the setting sun
Yeah, yeah,
It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun,
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah!)
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah!)
(hey, hey,)
Yeah, yeah (yeah!)
Yeah, yeah (yeah!)

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.
yeah..whatever goes on here[the sucky stuff]our home is still to come..soon though.
