In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Amazing Love
Your love is amazing
Don't know why you love me like you do
In spite of my wrong you've been there all along
That's what I call amazing love
I know that I'm not perfect
Sometimes I make mistakes
I live my life and I try to be faithful
Doesn't always turn out that way
still you're grace goes on continually
Everyday brand new mercies I see
Giving me a chance to try again
Always giving me just what I need
I'll tell the world
your love is amazing (amazing)
Don't know why you love me like you do (love me like you do)
In spite of my wrong
You were there all along
That's what I call amazing love
you look beyond my faults
And see just what I need
You didn't give up in my weakest moment
You want what's best for me
still you're grace goes on continually
Everyday brand new mercies I see (mercies I see)
Giving me a chance to try again
Always giving me just what I need
your love is amazing (amazing)
Don't know why you love me like you do (love me like you do)
In spite of my wrong
You were there all along
That's what I call amazing love
mmmmm hmm
Your love is so
Your love is so
Amazing
Amazing
your love is so
Your love is so
Said you've proven to me to be so
Amazing
Amazing
and that's what you are to me
Amazing
Your love is amazing
In spite of all my wrong
It is
Better than amazing
Yes it is
Yes it is
Your love is amazing
Don't know why you love me like you do
In spite of my wrong you've been there all along
That's what I call amazing love
I know that I'm not perfect
Sometimes I make mistakes
I live my life and I try to be faithful
Doesn't always turn out that way
still you're grace goes on continually
Everyday brand new mercies I see
Giving me a chance to try again
Always giving me just what I need
I'll tell the world
your love is amazing (amazing)
Don't know why you love me like you do (love me like you do)
In spite of my wrong
You were there all along
That's what I call amazing love
you look beyond my faults
And see just what I need
You didn't give up in my weakest moment
You want what's best for me
still you're grace goes on continually
Everyday brand new mercies I see (mercies I see)
Giving me a chance to try again
Always giving me just what I need
your love is amazing (amazing)
Don't know why you love me like you do (love me like you do)
In spite of my wrong
You were there all along
That's what I call amazing love
mmmmm hmm
Your love is so
Your love is so
Amazing

Your love is so
Said you've proven to me to be so

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.
