This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Dusting off the old life from my catholic knees
I scraped them up good
(Scraped them up good)
Scraped them up good
You doctored them clean
Oh yes, we are patient, patient
Salt-licked wounds merely bruised
(But none of that'll matter)
None of that'll matter soon
(?)educate, see how much you can take
None of that'll matter
None of that'll matter
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)
Before my hands had the chance to grow
All I was told
"Good enough's as good as it's gonna get"
Yeah "good enough's as good as you'll ever get"
Said I, I made a conscious decision
To shake the skin I was stuck in
It stretched my bones
Believe in nothing
I can't quite seem to catch my breath
(But I cannot forget)
That none of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
None of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)
But that's where you came in
Yeah, here we are
Yeah, here I am
That's where you came in
Now, here we are
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground
Lord, keep my feet flat on the ground
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)
I scraped them up good
(Scraped them up good)
Scraped them up good
You doctored them clean
Oh yes, we are patient, patient
Salt-licked wounds merely bruised
(But none of that'll matter)
None of that'll matter soon
(?)educate, see how much you can take
None of that'll matter
None of that'll matter
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)
Before my hands had the chance to grow
All I was told
"Good enough's as good as it's gonna get"
Yeah "good enough's as good as you'll ever get"
Said I, I made a conscious decision
To shake the skin I was stuck in
It stretched my bones
Believe in nothing
I can't quite seem to catch my breath
(But I cannot forget)
That none of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
None of that'll matter soon
(None of that'll matter soon)
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)
But that's where you came in
Yeah, here we are
Yeah, here I am
That's where you came in
Now, here we are
Lord, please keep my feet flat on the ground
Lord, keep my feet flat on the ground
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving so fast)
Everything was moving so fast
(Everything was moving)

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.
since most of the songs on this album are about his ex-fiance and fred (ex guitarist/vocalist) i would guess this one is about his ex-fiance seeing how alot of these songs reference christianity im guessing adam was raised a catholic, but didnt really care much and then chauntelle his ex, must of gotten him kinda into it again seeing how they were engaged. noone would know for sure unless they talk to adam themselves but thats just my guess
