@[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.
makes me feel like nothing ever did
nothing seems to change
and these moments they go
we saw porches. with a bunch of artsy kids
the songs were really great
i didn't mingle at the show
but i know you're lying to me
i still hear your breath in the morning
but there's some kind of cavern inside me
with polyethylene gloves
and carbon copies of me
to be pulled out
when you've finally figured out
it's not enough to love someone or thing
your dog still dies in your dreams
in the san francisco earthquake
people are crushed the ground shakes
i see you leave
my heart beats
leena's looking good today
writing lots and running late
remember when your cousin came?
she forgot your middle name
frankie is a philistine
you will turn away from me
halo 2 in 7th grade
we watched them hang saddam huessein
all my friends are getting old
seattle lost the super bowl
tear the atoms from my bones
make me something more than whole
nothing seems to change
and these moments they go
we saw porches. with a bunch of artsy kids
the songs were really great
i didn't mingle at the show
but i know you're lying to me
i still hear your breath in the morning
but there's some kind of cavern inside me
with polyethylene gloves
and carbon copies of me
to be pulled out
when you've finally figured out
it's not enough to love someone or thing
your dog still dies in your dreams
in the san francisco earthquake
people are crushed the ground shakes
i see you leave
my heart beats
leena's looking good today
writing lots and running late
remember when your cousin came?
she forgot your middle name
frankie is a philistine
you will turn away from me
halo 2 in 7th grade
we watched them hang saddam huessein
all my friends are getting old
seattle lost the super bowl
tear the atoms from my bones
make me something more than whole

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.
