This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'm searching for a reason to be better
But every time I try, I fall to my knees and say
What could I do to make things so much clearer
I need to change
I need change
I'm making sense of the mess you made
Your heart was the edge and my back was the blade
I can't fucking take the blame game
I've had enough of your manipulation
Your arrogant ways will be the death of me
Feels like I'm running in circles inside my mind
There's nothing left of me inside
I am the poison you let inside your veins
Coursing through your fingers
Things will never be the same
Every second, every hour, lost inside my head
My spirit breaks, bound by chains, everything inside is dead
What's the point of living in this depression
The cracks in the mirror void my own reflection
I am rotting away in this hell you call home
Every day is exactly the same
I have lost all motivation
Everything I touch turns to stone
It's a simple decision
I need it to survive
I am not alive
I am the poison you let inside your veins
Coursing through your fingers
Things will never be the same
I'm falling asleep as I realize my life is flashing before my eyes
Can this be the end of everything
Every second, every hour, lost inside my head
My spirit breaks, bound by chains, everything inside is dead
I am not alive
But every time I try, I fall to my knees and say
What could I do to make things so much clearer
I need to change
I need change
I'm making sense of the mess you made
Your heart was the edge and my back was the blade
I can't fucking take the blame game
I've had enough of your manipulation
Your arrogant ways will be the death of me
Feels like I'm running in circles inside my mind
There's nothing left of me inside
I am the poison you let inside your veins
Coursing through your fingers
Things will never be the same
Every second, every hour, lost inside my head
My spirit breaks, bound by chains, everything inside is dead
What's the point of living in this depression
The cracks in the mirror void my own reflection
I am rotting away in this hell you call home
Every day is exactly the same
I have lost all motivation
Everything I touch turns to stone
It's a simple decision
I need it to survive
I am not alive
I am the poison you let inside your veins
Coursing through your fingers
Things will never be the same
I'm falling asleep as I realize my life is flashing before my eyes
Can this be the end of everything
Every second, every hour, lost inside my head
My spirit breaks, bound by chains, everything inside is dead
I am not alive

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.
