To install the notion that I divided by I
Replace the occasion to speak
I'm not the only lonely boy

until I decide to take my watch off, I still believe that we
Were just a matter of time, stop getting older everyday, shout for shout's sake

siren siren, don't do this dance in my ear,
In fact, I've already lost him once
Do deadly dance and I've asked for is so little
In fact, I've already lost him once

If I decide to sever the plates below
The shore would separate and find only seven plates again
Until I decide to take my watch off, I still believe that we
Were just a matter of time, stop getting older everyday, shout for shout's sake

siren siren, don't do this dance in my ear,
In fact, I've already lost him once
Do a deadly dance and I've asked for so little
In fact, I've already lost him

before commemorating I hope you still believe
Before commemorating ten feet tall and separate the bow
Before commemorating I hope you still believe
Before commemorating ten feet tall and separate the bow
Before commemorating I hope you still believe

(if I decide to sever the plates below, the shore would separate and find only seven plates again oh I hope you still believe)

THIS LAST PART IN PARENTHESIS IS THE BACKROUND OF THE ENDING

    lol, apparently me and Ripper are the only guys that knows whats going on!!! I downloaded the live version video of this song, and before they start the song, anthony green says, "this song is called, i sold my soul to the man who fucked madonna" its probally just random cocaine induced jibberish but who knows????? after anthony's departure from saosin he did an album with Zolof The Rock & Roll Destroyer, and one of their songs he sings is entitled "ode to madonna" any symbolism there? anyway Zolof TRD is the band that does "plays pretty for baby" and not saosin... get it right!!!

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.
