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”
At time i feel old like im goin out of style
so i turn down the music on my FM dial
i beg of you to come and listen for a while,
look at this wonderful world through the eyes of a child
this is my chance to escape today
and i dont wanna see my dreams chased away
inside the palace gates is where i stay
cuz the world is no longer a safe place to play
its like the story of the little wooded boy
who wanted to live the life that every child should enjoy
i herd it once or twice before
the world is yours for you to explore
i herd my calling as a child and i answered it
when i grow up and finally get my chance to fit
i'll be the sort of man you cant forget
i used to stair up at the sky on my campin trip
on this quiet night of quiet stars
quiet cords on my gee-tar
kids out there i know it might be hard
but i realize how alive you are
one day i'll travel from the east to the west
and tap into the hidden strengths that all men possess
i'll always be young see a young mind is fresh
and its clear my memories will one day disappear
and less
do you remember
yes i remember
do you remember
some say the price of life has a costly amount
when it comes to fights i mighta lost me a bout
but i never lost my head cause that would cost me a scout
so when my heart became cold like the Austria nouts
i usually use my agression just to hurt mics
in 86 my whole crew was into dirtbikes
like a g-t preditor or a mongoose
listen as i ride the rythem and let the rhymes loose
this is what makes my life so real
i'll take my chances and spin the wheel
cant wait till i grow where i know the deal
where right now im a child this is how i feel
my younger days seemed sorta tragic despite
i learned to unify the pen and pad with the mic
i might leave a little bit of magic tonight
cause to me imagination is the fabric o life
my rhymes helped me many times growin up
before keepin it real or the days of blowin up
i put on shows in my room nobody showin up
im just a little guy now but when im old enough
one day i'll travel from the east to the west
and tap into the hidden strengths that all men possess
i'll always be young see a young mind is fresh
and its clear my memories will one day disappear
and less
do you remember
yes i remember
do you remember
do you remember
that day in September
yes i remember
do you remember
that was my train of thought,
that was my train of thought,
that was my train of thought....
so i turn down the music on my FM dial
i beg of you to come and listen for a while,

@[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.

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.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
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.
the name of the sond ist do you remember, not remember. however, its one of the best songs i've ever listened to... much love to all ballers out there.
