Sleepwalk away your life if that turns you on
It's only the moment,
Look away and it's gone
It's about time that your mind took a holiday
You're all grown up,
Don't you ever wanna play?

Ah, you've had enough
Of staring out of deaden eyes
Ah, it's gonna be tough
The battle's on and so is the prize
I don't know what it is I'm feelin'
A four letter word really gets my meaning
Nothing ever lasts
Forever

Get on your feet we're going out of our minds
The wheels need to roll
The clock on the wall said its time
Call in love, call in whatever you please
It's not what you wanted,
It might be just what you need

Ah, you've had enough,
It feels like you've blown a fifty amp fuse,
Ah, it's gonna be tough
The more you have the more you can lose
I don't know what it is I'm feelin'
A four letter word really gets my meaning
Nothing ever lasts
Forever

Ah, you've had enough
Of staring out of deaden eyes
Ah, it's gonna be tough
The battle's on and so is the prize
I don't know what it is I'm feelin'
A four letter word really get's my meaning
Nothing ever lasts
Forever

And nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever

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.
