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.
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
I'm slippin' down a chain reaction
And here I go, here I go, here I go, go
And once again, I'm yours in fractions
It takes me down, pulls me down, pulls me down low
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me you're covered tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies, lies
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
(I want you)
(I want you)
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I'm better under your reflection
But did you know, did you know, did you know, know
That's anybody else that's met ya
It's all the same, all the same, all the same glow
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me you're covered tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
You and me run the same course
(I want you)
(I want you)
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
I'm slippin' down a chain reaction
And here I go, here I go, here I go, go
And once again, I'm yours in fractions
It takes me down, pulls me down, pulls me down low
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me you're covered tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies, lies
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
(I want you)
(I want you)
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I'm better under your reflection
But did you know, did you know, did you know, know
That's anybody else that's met ya
It's all the same, all the same, all the same glow
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me you're covered tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
You and me run the same course
(I want you)
(I want you)
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course

“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.
