Like a grain on the beach
Like a star in the sky
Far too many to count,
With the eye
They will see you.

Go ahead, walk on by
You don't know im alive
Maybe one day you'll find
You should open your eyes
You don't know me

(chorus)
Your the one who looks right through me
Now your saying that you knew me
When i was invisible
And your the one who walks right through me
Now your saying that you knew me
When i was invisible

Little things that i know
Try to hard not to rush
Giving in, letting go
Of the world we know
They won't see you
Push it down, lose the taste
We don't think its a waste
We don't need to believe every word they say now(they say now)
They don't know me

(chorus)

It's so easy to be lost
But baby, your my love

Whoa whoa, do you recognize me
Whoa, whoa, do you know who i am
Whoa, whoa, do you see me now [x2]

(chorus)

Im invisible (x2)

    she has had a nosr job i think?!

    anyways this song is really amazing. i think its about the people who ignord her before she was famous and 'known' but as soon as she came into the limelight they all pretended they've always been there for her.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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.
