"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Es casi el alba y me despierto,
Con tu perfume sobre mí,
Como la lluvia, el fuego, el viento,
Que roba el tiempo junto a ti
Quiero vivir, como te siento,
Mi pensamiento echa a volar,
Mi corazón está desierto,
Contigo me llevará
Quiero volar junto a ti,
Noches y días, cada vez más,
Quiero que apagues en mí
Todo este amor que me quema muy dentro por ti
Jugar a amar en ocasiones,
Son los momentos que en la vida,
Encienden mil y un corazones
De soledades y mentiras
Desde esta noche estoy segura,
No quiero amar a nadie más,
Para calmar esta amargura
Que todos tus silencios me dan
Yo quiero estar junto a ti,
Toda una vida cada vez más,
Dame tu cielo porque
Quisiera quererte cada vez más
Y mientras, giran los amores
Mas vuelven siempre aunque no quieras tú,
También yo intento no buscarte más,
Mas te respiro siempre alrededor
A ti
Mas, quiero en tu cielo vivir
Envuelta en tus alas quiero volar
Eres mi historia,
Eres solo de mi,
Quiero volar junto a ti, a ti
Yo quiero estar junto a ti
Quiero otra vida cada vez más,
Quiero en tu cielo vivir
Envuelta en tus alas quiero volar
Con tu perfume sobre mí,
Como la lluvia, el fuego, el viento,
Que roba el tiempo junto a ti
Quiero vivir, como te siento,
Mi pensamiento echa a volar,
Mi corazón está desierto,
Contigo me llevará
Quiero volar junto a ti,
Noches y días, cada vez más,
Quiero que apagues en mí
Todo este amor que me quema muy dentro por ti
Jugar a amar en ocasiones,
Son los momentos que en la vida,
Encienden mil y un corazones
De soledades y mentiras
Desde esta noche estoy segura,
No quiero amar a nadie más,
Para calmar esta amargura
Que todos tus silencios me dan
Yo quiero estar junto a ti,
Toda una vida cada vez más,
Dame tu cielo porque
Quisiera quererte cada vez más
Y mientras, giran los amores
Mas vuelven siempre aunque no quieras tú,
También yo intento no buscarte más,
Mas te respiro siempre alrededor
A ti
Mas, quiero en tu cielo vivir
Envuelta en tus alas quiero volar
Eres mi historia,
Eres solo de mi,
Quiero volar junto a ti, a ti
Yo quiero estar junto a ti
Quiero otra vida cada vez más,
Quiero en tu cielo vivir
Envuelta en tus alas quiero volar

@[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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
