This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I’ve only known you for 10 minutes but I'd prefer you didn’t die just yet
You’re on a horse, your hands are tied and there’s a rope around your neck
One of them’s good, the other ones bad and you’re no oil painting
But you play the part of the holy rouge
Dance along like the desert’s your stage
Your soul possessed by the ghost of Stanislavski
Eli Wallach
Through his silver tooth, before he shoots he speaks their epitaph
Loose scripts and unsynced lips and he still makes us laugh
Like when he wears his gun while he’s in the bath
Disbeliever: But for all of your laughter, you’re going crazy like some guy like he’s your zen master…
Darren: I know
But inspiration’s rare as gold, hidden in an unmarked grave
You find a hero where you least expect it
Mine’s been in over 50 films
And I’d have thought by now
Somebody would have written a book about him
You’re on a horse, your hands are tied and there’s a rope around your neck
One of them’s good, the other ones bad and you’re no oil painting
But you play the part of the holy rouge
Dance along like the desert’s your stage
Your soul possessed by the ghost of Stanislavski
Eli Wallach
Through his silver tooth, before he shoots he speaks their epitaph
Loose scripts and unsynced lips and he still makes us laugh
Like when he wears his gun while he’s in the bath
Disbeliever: But for all of your laughter, you’re going crazy like some guy like he’s your zen master…
Darren: I know
But inspiration’s rare as gold, hidden in an unmarked grave
You find a hero where you least expect it
Mine’s been in over 50 films
And I’d have thought by now
Somebody would have written a book about him

“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.
