The sun brings its haze
The clutter of days
You can't find your dawn
So stuck in your ways
But all you can say is
"The moment has passed now
but where has it gone?"

You wake up, only to find
There was no piece of mind in your sleep
You wake up, the dreams that were there are
The memories you can't seem to keep

Another day, you walk this spinning wheel
Forgetting how to feel
And how long since it took your breath away
Don't spend another minute trying to
Find out where the moments have gone

You wake up, only to find
There was no piece of mind in your sleep
You wake up, the dreams that were there are
The memories you can't seem to keep

So lost in this place
The lines on your face
Were built by your mind

All of this time
When does love decide
Now to shake you up, wake you up?

You wake up, only to find
There was no piece of mind in your sleep
You wake up, the dreams that were there are
The memories you can't seem to keep

    Listened to the song a few times again... About dreams? Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's about dreams. It all kind of fits in with the 'you wake up, but can't remeber' ideal. Hell, it even says 'You wake up, the dreams that were there are/ The memories you can't seem to keep'

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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
“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.
