Show a little faith there’s magic in the air
Beyond the gates of time we fly so high
Fight for glory and pride will come our way
Never surrender, if we do, we are done

Never look back
We are ready to strike and attack
Never look back
It can be our final attack

We are defenders of the crown night and day
For all that’s in the world we fight until we die
Because the darkness now has blinded my eyes
But for the full price I shall give it to you

My lord – the king – the world
The lust of the flesh

In a world of hate and lies
We search for the truth
But we have not found it
The future is dead
And everything is lost
We can’t defend ourselves
How hard we try
We can’t defend the crown

The morning fills the air with silence I am lost
I’ll try to reach for the stars in the sky
It’s time to close the final chapter in the book
There goes my pride it was my life they took

My lord – the king – the world
The lust of the flesh

In a world of hate and lies
We search for the truth
But we have not found it
When the future is dead
And everything is dead
We can’t defend ourselves
How hard we try
We can’t defend the crown

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.
