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”
For so long now I've been coming to your rescue (got me thinking I'll get you)
And I'm serious when I say I'm over it
I'm over it (and your fuckin' lies)
That you'll stick around
Stay on my side of town
Now I'm covered in blood and I'm feeding off your pretty little lies
For once why can't you just come and chase me
Dig up my grave and save my body
Now I'm rotting to the bone
But my hearts still beatin'
Hopin' you won't leave me
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy
Now you're risking it all
For some creepy girl
With a blacked out rage that'll cast a spell
Don't tempt her—she's got those evil eyes
Now you're risking it all
For some pin-up doll
Who drinks in the AM
Fucks in the PM
Treats all the boys like she don't need 'em
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy
And I'm serious when I say I'm over it
I'm over it (and your fuckin' lies)
That you'll stick around
Stay on my side of town
Now I'm covered in blood and I'm feeding off your pretty little lies
For once why can't you just come and chase me
Dig up my grave and save my body
Now I'm rotting to the bone
But my hearts still beatin'
Hopin' you won't leave me
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy
Now you're risking it all
For some creepy girl
With a blacked out rage that'll cast a spell
Don't tempt her—she's got those evil eyes
Now you're risking it all
For some pin-up doll
Who drinks in the AM
Fucks in the PM
Treats all the boys like she don't need 'em
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy
Creepy girls
You're just my style
Blood-red lipstick
You don't smile
Falling victim to your fantasy
Damn, I love it that you're so creepy

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
This would be a cooler song without the "who drinks in the AM, fucks in the PM" part of the chorus cuz I'd like to think that it's really about a guy whose girlfriend is some kind of supernatural girl and this part of the song just cheapens it by making it sound like she's just creepy because she parties a lot. I'd have liked the opportunity to make up my own idea in my head what makes her creepy and those lines just kinda make the song more boring for me. Also the "you don't smile" part confuses me because this sounds like the type of girl to smile a lot, particularly in an evil and creepy way.
@Foggypebble2 She feels joy and all that crap,but she keeps her emotions to herself,like she could be smiling inside but not on the outside.
