Confession (What's Inside My Head)

Red

I feel fine
And I can smile
But I feel the anger coming
It's underneath
I don't know why
It's always overflowing
It's a constant fight
Deep inside
And I want to forget it

I confess
I'm always afraid
Always ashamed
Of what's inside me
I confess
I'm always afraid
Always ashamed
Of what's inside my head

And I can breathe
And I still feel
But not the way I want to
I'm on the edge
I don't know how
I can escape this nightmare

I confess
I'm always afraid
Always ashamed
Of what's inside me
I confess
I'm always afraid
Always ashamed
Of what's inside my head
What's inside my head

Oh, I'm wasting away
It's part of my instinct
I'll run away
From everything I hate
Take this away
Help me escape
Take this away

I confess
Innocence
Innocence
Innocence

    My Interpretation

    --I feel fine and I can smile

    overall I,m fine... my life is running... im neural.. I'll smile at you as you walk by.....it's kinda like im covering up what really going on in my head.

    --But I feel the anger coming

    I seem to get made.... i just push it too the side... I don't want to be made

    --It's underneath, I don't know why

    I have this anger.... but i don't know why it is there

    --It's always overflowing

    anger is at the top... always

    --It's a constant fight deep inside

    Im always fighting with my self.... i should have done this......i shouldn't have done that And I want to forget it

    --I confess I'm always afraid

    i admit it -Im afraid people dont like me. im afraid to let people down. im afraid to make the wrong move..im afraid to stand up for my belief...

    --Always ashamed of what's inside me

    i admit it-- im this mean person. I shouldn't be thinking certain thoughts....im alway thinking of eval

    --I confess I'm always afraid --Always ashamed of what's inside my head

    --I can breathe and I can feel

    Im still alive... i still believe in God.... I still cry for the hurting people. I still love..all of those feeling

    --But not the way I want to

    I don't love the way i want to.... I don't fallow God the way i want to.... im not moved the way i want to.... im not fallowing Jesus the way i want to

    --I'm on the edge, I don't know how

    Im one the edge of letting my fire die... the edge of just leaving my faith.... Im one the edge of my relationship with Jesus...

    --I can escape this nightmare

    My greatest night mare -not living w/ Jesus- Living life w/out that passing is a nightmare

    --I confess I'm always afraid

    Im afraid i will leave God....im afraid in many things that i shouldn't be

    --Always ashamed of what's inside me --I confess I'm always afraid --Always ashamed of what's inside my head --What's inside my head

    --Wasting away is part of my instinct

    My fire for got is leaving... it not there anymore...not like it used to be

    --I'll put away everything I hate --Take this away, help me escape

    help me escape from my self....help me escape this night mare

    --Take this away

    take my night mare away

    --I confess

    --Innocence --Innocence --Innocence

    I need to hold on to my inoccents

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.
