I've got nothing to do
And nobody to see
Nowhere to go
And nobody to be

I'm on a ghost train
In a ghost cloud
And I don't know how to get out
And get it to heaven

I had a beautiful girl
A musical dream (?)
She wanted it all
But she didn't want me

Now I'm a ghost man
In a ghost town
And I just wish I could get out
And get it to heaven

I like the bad boys
And their (?)
I like the bad bands
And their big sounds

I've got a ghost mouth
With a ghost frown
And I'm too scared to get out
And get it to heaven

I got to quit staying home
Gotta get outta here
It just hasn't been home
Since you haven't been here

I knew it when I heard it the first time
I knew it when I heard it the last time
Nothing compares to you

That's right

I've got nothing to do
And nobody to see
Nowhere to go
And nobody to be

I'm on a ghost train
In a ghost cloud
And I don't know how to get out
And get it to heaven

Yeah I just wish I could get out
And get it to heaven
But I'm too scared to get out
And get it to heaven

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.
