In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Praying hands grasp a throat
Searching for a song they wrote
Heater just won't warm a frozen spirit
Just a man with a cause
No reward and no applause
If there was a call he did not hear it
Tiny hero fighting big battles
Mind of stone breaks and rattles
The only thing I need kiss my disease
And make it all better
Clean me when I bleed justify me
Make words of my scattered lettters
Hunger pains take control
Growling at the tired soul
When the body just won't meet the
demands
Growing older growing weak
Going nowhere future's bleak
Need another spark to fire up the plan
Tiny hero fighting big battles
Mind of stone overcomes the rattles
The only thing I need kiss my disease
And make it all better
Clean me when I bleed justify me
Make words of my scattered lettters
Searching for a song they wrote
Heater just won't warm a frozen spirit
Just a man with a cause
No reward and no applause
If there was a call he did not hear it
Tiny hero fighting big battles
Mind of stone breaks and rattles
The only thing I need kiss my disease
And make it all better
Clean me when I bleed justify me
Make words of my scattered lettters
Hunger pains take control
Growling at the tired soul
When the body just won't meet the
demands
Growing older growing weak
Going nowhere future's bleak
Need another spark to fire up the plan
Tiny hero fighting big battles
Mind of stone overcomes the rattles
The only thing I need kiss my disease
And make it all better
Clean me when I bleed justify me
Make words of my scattered lettters

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 is a wonderful song...i think its about achieving ur goals.....like theres a man....who has a goal that he thinks he must achieve but most ppl dunt believe in him....ppl might critisize him for his desires but he pleas that they shudn't be that way.....this song says that we shudn't lose our passion no matter what happens......juss keep ur self heading up the hill!..and one day u will be on the top!!!!!
