Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
We all know, We all know by now that you're the only thing you talk about
WHORE
So forgive me for bragging out loud, I tried to reason with myself
Tell me what could i have done?
Maybe I should have asked you to stay, like i was gonna, just get up and hand it away
But babe, like they say about somethings, well I guess that they never change
We all know, We all know by now that you're the only thing you talk about
We all know, We all know by now that things won't work out
No, you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing, you've got nothing to say
Someday I hope you'll see the consequences of your actions
I know, that I can do so much more without you
But babe, like they say about somethings, well i guess that they never change
We all know, We all know by now that you're the only thing you talk about
We all know, We all know by now that things wont work out
no, I never really had a doubt
That things would end up to be this way
And I never meant to make them seem that way
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing...
and I swore as I left you'd go and fuck someone else
YOU WHORE
You've got nothing to say
We all know, We all know by now that you're the only thing you talk about
We all know, We all know by now that things won't work out
no, I never really had a doubt
That things would end up to be this way
And I never meant to make them seem that way
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing...

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
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.
I love Craig's screams!
