i don't mean to run, but every time you come around i feel more alive than ever
and i guess it's too much, maybe we're too young and i don't even know what's real
but i know i've never wanted anything so bad, i've never wanted anyone so bad

if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?
be the one i'm looking for
if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?
be the one i'm looking for

help me come back down, from high above the clouds you know i'm suffocating but i blame this town
why do i deny, the things that burn inside down deep i'm barely breathing but you just see a smile
and i don't want to let this go, really i just want to know

if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?
be the one i'm looking for
if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?

[stay]
be the one i'm looking for

if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?
be the one i'm looking for
if i let you love me, be the one adored, would you go all the way?
be the one i'm looking for
if i let you love me, say the word adored, would you go away?
be the one i'm looking for

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
