This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I just need something that'll take me away
I'd throw my heart into your fire, when I was blind
And you knew that I'd come crawling back
And you knew you'd always find me there
But this time some things are gonna change, I'm breaking out
And I know someday I'll be ok
And I know someday I'll stand again
But this won't be the end of me
'Cause I'm breaking away
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
And as I'm sifting through the ash, I find myself
And you knew that I'd come crawling back
And you knew you'd always find me there
But I'm sure you're never gonna change
'Cause you've learned this all before
And I know that you'll come crawling back
But I swear you'll never find me there
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
What was I awaiting for
The years went flying by me
And I can't ever get them back
What was I afraid of
I just want to live my life while I'm still alive
'Cause I'm still alive
I just need something that will make me numb
To help me dissapear
To anywhere but here
You'll break away
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
For now I'm fine, for now
I just want to live my life while I'm alive
For now I'm fine, for now
I just want to live my life while I'm alive
I'd throw my heart into your fire, when I was blind
And you knew that I'd come crawling back
And you knew you'd always find me there
But this time some things are gonna change, I'm breaking out
And I know someday I'll be ok
And I know someday I'll stand again
But this won't be the end of me
'Cause I'm breaking away
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
And as I'm sifting through the ash, I find myself
And you knew that I'd come crawling back
And you knew you'd always find me there
But I'm sure you're never gonna change
'Cause you've learned this all before
And I know that you'll come crawling back
But I swear you'll never find me there
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
What was I awaiting for
The years went flying by me
And I can't ever get them back
What was I afraid of
I just want to live my life while I'm still alive
'Cause I'm still alive
I just need something that will make me numb
To help me dissapear
To anywhere but here
You'll break away
I just need something that'll take me away
To help me disconnect
To get you off my mind
I just need something that'll give me the strength
To get away from you
To escape from here
For now I'm fine, for now
I just want to live my life while I'm alive
For now I'm fine, for now
I just want to live my life while I'm alive

Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
American Town

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 think this is about how he realises he was acting blind when he was with her, and realises how she manipulated him "I'd throw my heart into your fire, when I was blind And you knew that I'd come crawling back" as if he was blind from love, as "love is blind etc etc " although he may have tried to leave, he thinks she knew hed come back cause he relies on her cause she has such a hold on him. he knows he must leave now and although it wil hurt him he knows one day he'll be alright and will be able to not depend on ehr, cause he will force himself not to. "And I know someday I'll be ok And I know someday I'll stand again But this won't be the end of me"
the chorus seems to be that he is searching for something to take his mind off her so tht he will be alright. maybe he is looking for a new partner.
"But I'm sure you're never gonna change 'Cause you've learned this all before And I know that you'll come crawling back But I swear you'll never find me there"
she realises shes wrong andhas treated him like shit and says shell change, but he knows she wont cause its who she is, so now she wants him more than she thought she could but he wont have her when she comes "crawling back" and wont be able to find him.
when it says"what was i awaiting for..." i think this is like he was with her for years "years went by" but wanted to leave for a while, seemingly waiting for something, but now he doesnt know what. he realises he has wasted part of his life on her due to fear of her controlling him. but she hasnt totally cut him down "cause im still alive" and he just wants to get over her and move on.
"you'll break away" i think ths is him telling her she will be okay eventually, but i am not sure he cares that much any more, cause he's alright now. "for now i'm fine."

Nathan said in a Kerrang Interview that he was in a really bad realationship and everyone around him could see it but not him and when he finially got out of it he felt great and could do stuff he wan't allowed to when he was with this girl so I think this is what this song is written about. ^_^
Me too. Why aren't there many comments?? People, you must heard Madina Lake
where can i find this song?
You can get it on limewire
And I actually think there are some lyrical similarities to this one and now and never "what was I waiting for, these years went flying by me, I just want to live me life while i'm alive, cos im still alive. Compare those lines to now or never "what are we waiting for, these years are dying slowly, open your eyes, we're still alive, still alive.
