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”
1st verse:
I'm about to hit this road again
Put it in
Show em how to rock out
But that's how it all begins
Drama tends
To start when we roll out
But that's just my life you dig
Fall in love as soon as I fall out
This time is different
Like front row to a show when its sold out
Got me scared to leave my seat
Gotta hit this road to eat
Is this how real love should feel
Gotta pimp thinkin get off these streets
And off these freaks
And more at home
Wonder if she thinkin bout me when I'm gone
Why the hell she ain't answer her phone
Is she all alone?
Chorus:
should I feel ashamed because
damn I'm only human
I take the blame for love
whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about me
Whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about
Don't give it away
Don't Don't
Don't give it Away
2nd verse:
Now this love hate
Make me hate to love
Why should I
Justify my thug
She treats it like a drug
But me i'd rather get high
On something I can roll on up
Not something I gotta roll up on
What good is it
When it disappears
Like a magic trick… GONE
Yeah I fall in Love
Cause I love them all
You say that's foul
Does that mean I ball
Who knows
Tell the truth you just pissed off cause you lost control
But you can't let go
And you and I both know
That's the way it goes
Chorus:
should I feel ashamed because
damn I'm only human
I take the blame for love
whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about me
Whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about
Don't give it away
Don't Don't
Don't give it Away
Bridge:
Why should I feel ashamed
Feel ashamed
Why should I
Why should I feel ashamed
I ain't even not done nothin baby
Whatever gonna happen happens
Naw naw naw naw I ain't crazy
Why should I feel ashamed
I ain't even not done nothin baby
Whatever gonna happen happens
Naw naw naw naw…
Chorus:
should I feel ashamed because
damn I'm only human
I take the blame for love
Whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about me
Whatever happens happens
Don't give it away
Hope you think about
Don't give it away

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Magical

Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
