@[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 praise You Lord, 'cause Ya died to take my place
I thank You Lord, for Your amazing grace
I bless You Lord, You're the one that I adore
I love You Lord, because of who You are
I trust You Lord, 'cause Ya hold the world in place
You made it all, in less than seven days
I see You Lord, when I look near and I look far
I love You Lord because of who You are
The mountain peaks
The oceans wide
They speak Your name
They testify
To All that Is and All that Was and All that Is to Come
You're the Great I Am, You're the Holy One,
You're the One and Only Son of God
I hear You Lord, when You whisper in my ear
To comfort me, and let me know You're near
You came to me, I don't have to wish upon no star
I love You Lord because of who You are
The mountain peaks
The oceans wide
They speak Your name
They testify
To All that Is and All that Was and All that Is to Come
You're the Great I Am, You're the Holy One,
You're the One and Only Son of God
I know You Lord, 'cause You reached out Your Hand
To rescue me and show me how to stand
In truth and love more than I could ever ever ask for
I love You Lord because of who You are
Hey yeah!
The mountain peaks (Mountain peaks)
The oceans wide (Oceans wide)

You are the Start, You are the End, You are the Saviour and my friend
You are the life, You are the breath, You are the love that conquers death,
You bring the sun, You bring the rain, You bring the peace amidst the pain
You're everything that's good and right, You are the change in my life

I bless You Lord, You're the one that I adore

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
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.
I love this song. I sang it in chapel in front of my school. It makes a very good solo if you can match the voice.
