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”
Rain again, little red blood chains
Running down the wall before it hangs
Thinking over a page
Time looks like the dust got caught, remained
Ads are beat into the earth
Sometimes I ponder what's worth
Thinking over my birth
Looking at the problem that's occurred
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Green eyes like in an aquarium
You write down everything you've thought
Staring straight into the sun
Sun spots in your eyes were never fun
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Rain again, little red blood chains
Running down the wall before it hangs
Thinking over a page
Time looks like the dust got caught, remained
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
And when we're through, I'll still dig you
Sent through the crowd, a daily groove
When we're done, I'll kiss the sun
Sun spots in your eyes were never much fun
Running down the wall before it hangs
Thinking over a page
Time looks like the dust got caught, remained
Ads are beat into the earth
Sometimes I ponder what's worth
Thinking over my birth
Looking at the problem that's occurred
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Green eyes like in an aquarium
You write down everything you've thought
Staring straight into the sun
Sun spots in your eyes were never fun
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
Rain again, little red blood chains
Running down the wall before it hangs
Thinking over a page
Time looks like the dust got caught, remained
Hold me still, think I will
Turn make believe
I cut my lines, lost my shine
Grow from seeds
And when we're through, I'll still dig you
Sent through the crowd, a daily groove
When we're done, I'll kiss the sun
Sun spots in your eyes were never much fun

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.
