Nobody saw our sails on the horizon
Nobody heard propellers in the dawn
Nobody smelt our coalfires burning
Nobody knew - under the radar we crept on
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on
Nobody saw our broad sides out their window
Nobody heard our trapdoor swinging open
Nobody saw our cannons taking aim
Nobody heard my whispered "Fire - blow their sides!"
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on
Somebody heard the cannonfire ringing
Somebody saw the window shattering
Somebody saw the hooks and tethers flying
Somebody saw my crew with swords drawn coming in
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on
Nobody heard propellers in the dawn
Nobody smelt our coalfires burning
Nobody knew - under the radar we crept on
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on
Nobody saw our broad sides out their window
Nobody heard our trapdoor swinging open
Nobody saw our cannons taking aim
Nobody heard my whispered "Fire - blow their sides!"
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on
Somebody heard the cannonfire ringing
Somebody saw the window shattering
Somebody saw the hooks and tethers flying
Somebody saw my crew with swords drawn coming in
Well here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come fife and drum
Propellers in the dawn
Here we come on the run
Our coal fires are burning
Here we come on the run
Under the rader we crept on

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
