It seems like you've always known
Exactly what to say
And meanwhile I never know what to do
With myself when I get this way

So I'm walking on
Take comfort in all the nights we shared
I guess I'm walking on
Cause there's nothing left inside of me that cares

I'm sorry that I can't deny
Feelings that I've put aside
And I've wasted my time for so long
So tell me how could this go up

In flames when I've been waiting
The return of blood

It seems like you've always known
Things would turn out this way
Sometimes you never know
What can happen on any given day
It seems like you've always known
Things would turn out this way

    This is such a beautiful song, for me the lyrics are about an ended relationship with someone who was perfect, and knew that it would't last, but keep going, and when it finaly "go up in flames" it cause grat pain.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

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.
