(Yeah)

God gave me the sunshine
Then showed me my lifeline
I was told it was all mine
Then I got laid on the ley line
What a day, what a day
And your Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

Uk and entropy
I feel like it's fucking me
Wanna feed off the energy
Love living like a deity
One a day, one day
And your Jesus really died for me
I guess Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the bodhi tree
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies of my family
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection from my reflection
I want perfection

Praying for the rapture
'Cause it's stranger getting stranger
And everything's contagious
It's the modern middle ages
All day, every day
And if Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the bodhi tree
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies of my family
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection from my reflection
I want perfection

(Yeah)

Bodies in the bodhi tree
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies of my family
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery
Bodies in the bodhi tree
Bodies making chemistry
Bodies of my family
Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery
And that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked
Hope that someone can take it (someone can take it)
God save me rejection from my reflection
I want perfection

Jesus didn't die for you (Jesus didn't die for you)
What are you on? (I want perfection)
Jesus didn't die for you (Jesus didn't die for you)
What are you on? (bodies can die young) oh, Lord

Jesus didn't die for you (oh)
Jesus didn't die for you
Jesus didn't die for you (oh)

    "UK and entropy" seems kinda random. It makes some bit of sense when he metions energy later. But why the UK?

    What's a ley lie? Shouldn't it be 'lay line? if they are lying down waiting in line, to get laid.

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.
