This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
If anything could happen, I'd start on my way to heaven,
I'd leave this world and all the thrills like girls and 7/11.
My family's fine, my friends are all the guys on "Lives of the Rich and Famous,"
Will someone meet me at the pearly gates and let me in when I start knocking?
Whoa, I wonder how I'll be remembered.
Whoa, how about a star on Hollywood Blvd?
If I met God I'd smile alot waiting for his inspection.
I hope my hair's OK and my tattoo's fade as he hands down my penance.
He'll say, "what did you do in '82 with that girl you weren't in love with?"
I'll say, "I was young and dumb,
Was there something wrong with having fun with one of your creations?"
Whoa, I wonder how I'll be remembered.
Whoa, how about a star on Hollywood Blvd?
I want a window seat, I don't want anything to pass me.
It's a new parade, it's judgment day for me.
Whatever happened to the record that was going platinum?
Everybody just stood up and cheered and said "the next big thing is coming!"
So I dropped a lot of acid, and I heard what the Beatles were saying,
It's been 32 years and I really don't care, everyone's so depressing!
Whoa, I wonder how I'll be remembered.
Whoa, how about a star on Hollywood Blvd?
I want a window seat, I don't want anything to pass me.
It's a new parade, it's judgment day.
It's a new parade, it's love and hate.
It's a new parade, it's judgment day for me.
This is the story...

@[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.

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.
