Reaching around my pockets for the right wors.
It's been a long couple of years draggin' ass for a dollar here and there.
Just looking for a minute or a thank you for the effort.
I don't care to be here.

Cause my time, my time is running out the sun's too fat to climb up the horizon.

Its been too long a walk not to be headed anywhere.
I've been just digging all around for something like the truth that luxury that writhers in all thats fleeting, fading hues.

But in the meantime I'll say thanks.
My mind, my mind is running out.;
I appreciate the extra weight.

Its been too long a walk not to be headed anywhere.
Too far along I have come.
Too fara along to give up.

    I really like this song, I think it's about someone that is going through their life and has a confident idea about where they want to take their life. Only problem is they don't know how to get there , they just want someone to back them up and support them. Motivate them? then they realize that life's too damn short to be going no where you you're going to have to find your damn way in this world one way or another so make this shit count.

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.
