Down the ferry, our eyes eager for Indians,
Down the ferry with wild Irish you never know where you are.
And you never know our eyes, eager for Indians.
Down the ferry with wild eyes even lately.
Where you're wearing a dirty coat of sound.

    Does this song even HAVE meaning? The music's really pretty... but to me, the lyrics make no sense whatsoever.

    I'm having trouble figuring it out too but I think it does have some cryptic meaning behind it.

    I don't know what any of their songs are about so Im not even going to take a shot at it, but this song kinda reminds me of being at Disneyland on the Ferry "Mark Twain" and looking for animals and Indians on the banks of "Rivers Of America". It sounds crazy, and I'm not suggesting that's what the song is about at all, but anyone who has been to Disneyland in California and has been on the ferry should know exactly what I'm talking about.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
