@[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.
Missed the common life we had
Monday mornings and quiet nights
Being bored, feeling fine
Was it gift if you ask me now
I never knew when I had you
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use that I miss you
Still calling love by your name
You want apartment outside town
I miss Saturdays when your kids came by
Fussing hard to accept
But who can choose the love they get
I thought I could
You never measured up
Your life wasn't good enough
But who am I to judge you now
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use but I miss you
Still calling love by your name
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use but I miss you
Still calling love by your name
Monday mornings and quiet nights
Being bored, feeling fine
Was it gift if you ask me now
I never knew when I had you
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use that I miss you
Still calling love by your name
You want apartment outside town
I miss Saturdays when your kids came by
Fussing hard to accept
But who can choose the love they get
I thought I could
You never measured up
Your life wasn't good enough
But who am I to judge you now
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use but I miss you
Still calling love by your name
All the same, whomever's to blame for this
I call love by your name
I take it's no use but I miss you
Still calling love by your name

“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.
