The photos on my wall
The glow of the off switch
It's so good to hear your voice
As a stolen guitar falls
I don't think before I speak
I break your heart
Just waiting for your turn to speak
Everyone's got an opinion
I stare and nod my head
And leave straight when it finishes
I think I could do better
So arrogant
You read and it makes no sense
Don't understand a single word he says
My head hurts from being on the phone
And my ears are ringing from the night before
I don't think before I speak
I break your heart
I think I could do better
So arrogant
The glow of the off switch
It's so good to hear your voice
As a stolen guitar falls
I don't think before I speak
I break your heart
Just waiting for your turn to speak
Everyone's got an opinion
I stare and nod my head
And leave straight when it finishes
I think I could do better
So arrogant
You read and it makes no sense
Don't understand a single word he says
My head hurts from being on the phone
And my ears are ringing from the night before
I don't think before I speak
I break your heart
I think I could do better
So arrogant

Magical
Ed Sheeran

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran

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.

I just think that it's a song about a phone conversation with his girlfriend...he says something in passing that hurts her and suddenly everythings bad, they are having an argument. He just wants to leave it...he "nods", but obviously she doesn't know that. He knows he could make more effort with her, but he doesn't. He feels her pain, but doesn't try and make things better. He knows he's arrogant, but he doesn't try and change that.
