This is my sense of reality
This is proof of my coming of age
This is truth in captivity
This is loosing a theology, I
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel, witted mind
This is my sense of reality
This is proof of my coming of age
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel witted mind
Are you with me?
Are you of my mind?
Are you with me?
Are you of my mind?
Waking, falling, free of gravity
We just severed these umbilical wires
This is more than just affinity
We're moving further through an endless desire
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel witted mind
Come again, I feel a breakdown
Let's go higher
This is the sound of your
Reason to wake
Have we forgotten now?
Can we relate?
It's backwards, it makes no sense
So real that we can't pretend
It's backwards, it makes no sense
It's harder to just pretend
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Are you with me?
(Can we relate?)
Are you of my mind?
Are you with me?
(Can we relate?)
Are you off my mind?
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
This is proof of my coming of age
This is truth in captivity
This is loosing a theology, I
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel, witted mind
This is my sense of reality
This is proof of my coming of age
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel witted mind
Are you with me?
Are you of my mind?
Are you with me?
Are you of my mind?
Waking, falling, free of gravity
We just severed these umbilical wires
This is more than just affinity
We're moving further through an endless desire
I'm a soul taker
I'm a cruel witted mind
Come again, I feel a breakdown
Let's go higher
This is the sound of your
Reason to wake
Have we forgotten now?
Can we relate?
It's backwards, it makes no sense
So real that we can't pretend
It's backwards, it makes no sense
It's harder to just pretend
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Are you with me?
(Can we relate?)
Are you of my mind?
Are you with me?
(Can we relate?)
Are you off my mind?
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know
Say it once more
Say it again
That this is the end
Of all I know

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.
Love this song, to me it's about two people most likely friends who are used to being around one another 24/7, one however is manipulative and therefore they're breaking apart as friends and I feel it's about getting used to being by yourself instead of just going along with it. Hence the repeated lyrics of 'hey is this the end of all I know' and 'Are you with me?'
You know I never thought of it like that myself but now that I do was in a very similar close friendship with someone - basically we spent all of high school wearing the same clothes, being into all the same music, playing in bands together, people pretty much knew us as a pair - which recently drifted apart and I struggled with sort of establishing my own identity unique from the other guy. The song really captures that emotion perfectly and who knows - maybe subconsciously the lyrics spoke to me like that, making me love the song even more.
