“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.
I heard she's beautiful
A twenty out of ten
That doesn't keep me from
Wondering how you've been
Left me for dead when we were
I'm holding flooding fast
I held my breathe and prayed that
The rain would soon have passed
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Why don't you come around
Now wouldn't that be nice
Another moment to remember why we felt so right
I know you kiss me
And in some fucked up way that's fine
I know well only end in another sad goodbye
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
A twenty out of ten
That doesn't keep me from
Wondering how you've been
Left me for dead when we were
I'm holding flooding fast
I held my breathe and prayed that
The rain would soon have passed
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Why don't you come around
Now wouldn't that be nice
Another moment to remember why we felt so right
I know you kiss me
And in some fucked up way that's fine
I know well only end in another sad goodbye
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
So if you think you're falling apart
And I'm the only one you'll call
If you keep reaching for me in the dark
And can't stand it anymore
Then you just call my name
I will do the same
You can look into my eyes and see
If you've got a broken heart
Then you're just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me
Just like just like me

“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.
