(Words Willcox / Music Bogen/Spalding)
In every waking hour I miss you
In my dreams I never kiss you
And in the shadows creatures want to hurt you
But in love and war I'll never desert you
And I breathe white fire in anger
I breathe white fire in anger
In every waking hour I miss you
In my dreams I never kiss you
And somewhere on another star a man holds his brother
Looking at the faded scars of their land
And he wonders if another planet has survived man
And I breathe white fire in anger
I breathe white fire in anger
In every waking hour I miss you
In my dreams I never kiss you
And in the shadows creatures want to hurt you
But in love and war I'll never desert you
I'll never desert you
I'll never desert you
And somewhere on another star a man holds his brother
And he loved him, he loved him
Like he loved no other

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.
