This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I got the concept and came to the conclusion
That the top floor was just an illusion
To the fact that I got this break in my back
That I can't get out, I can't figure out how
You appeared right in front of me
Before you marched down South, the university
Is where you spend your daylight
We're both just waiting for this Friday night
Although the distance is daring, we both know how to drive
Oh, we can't make up for the lost times that we both apologize for
And I can't stand the fact that this extremity is the center of my day
I see where you're coming from
We've been on the same boat since day one
I see how you like to run
Back to the things that got you here, oh
Although the distance is daring, we both know how to drive
Oh, we can't make up for the lost times that we both apologize for
And I can't stand the fact that this extremity is the center of my day
You're the center of my day
Oh, Mondays I sleep away
Tuesdays I lay awake
Wednesdays they are the worst
Whoa, Thursdays I reminisce
Friday, I see your face and I can't breathe
Although the distance is daring, I sure know what it's like to be alone
That the top floor was just an illusion
To the fact that I got this break in my back
That I can't get out, I can't figure out how
You appeared right in front of me
Before you marched down South, the university
Is where you spend your daylight
We're both just waiting for this Friday night
Although the distance is daring, we both know how to drive
Oh, we can't make up for the lost times that we both apologize for
And I can't stand the fact that this extremity is the center of my day
I see where you're coming from
We've been on the same boat since day one
I see how you like to run
Back to the things that got you here, oh
Although the distance is daring, we both know how to drive
Oh, we can't make up for the lost times that we both apologize for
And I can't stand the fact that this extremity is the center of my day
You're the center of my day
Oh, Mondays I sleep away
Tuesdays I lay awake
Wednesdays they are the worst
Whoa, Thursdays I reminisce
Friday, I see your face and I can't breathe
Although the distance is daring, I sure know what it's like to be alone

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
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.
No, I don't think the girl is in college. University is a rather large town in Missouri (Christopher Drew's home state) So I think it says... " You appeared right in front of me, before you marched down south to University"
I'm playing a show with Chris this Saturday, I'm really excited =DDDDD
