Lyrics :

I overthink and have trouble sleepin'
All purpose gone and don't have a reason
There's no doctor to stop this bleedin'
So, I left home and jumped in the deep end

Took a job for Dad I think just to please him
So, when I quit, I just kept it secret
I have friends but no longer see them
It's just me and, now, all my demons

Are heavy, weighin' on my heart, I guess I'm done
Already all but given up
I'm burnin' days 'til the weekends, I start, I just pretend
I'm not where I am
Should I cancеl my plans?


Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

When my friend died, it's been years, still grievin'
And I thought time would be somehow healin'
When love finds me, I'm too numb to feel it
Oh, why the fuck am I still here breathin'?

Well, I would pray but I don't believe it
Oh, woe is me but I don't care either
Life is not the way that it seems, but
Maybe this'll all be a dream

And I'll stay steady, balanced on the rope, I guess I'm done
All ready to rely on the hope
I'm burnin' days 'til the weekends, and start, I just pretend
I'm not where I am
Should I cancel my plans?

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

I'm a wreck, hate it
Take me to the other side
Don't look in my eyes

It's almost morning, I'm still not leavin'
It's wearin' off but I still can feel it
Another one and I'll touch the ceiling
But this is all I want to be

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

*I knew it was gonna be a good one when I clicked it.* ♥

[JP-btoe]

I've never found a song more relatable than this, every word is very true to life to me. To those who are struggling with life, know that you are not alone. Thanks Ed for sharing this wonderfully written song.

[Chiosford]

Sheeran’s voice will always soothes my heartache every moment I listen. Even though I’m not from US, deep down I need to work with him on a song. He inspires me so much as an artist🫶💜

[Verse 1]
I overthink and have trouble sleepin'
All purpose gone and don't have a reason
There's no doctor to stop this bleedin'
So, I left home and jumped in the deep end
Took a job for Dad I think just to please him
So, when I quit, I just kept it secret
I have friends but no longer see them
It's just me and, now, all my demons

[Pre-Chorus]
Are heavy, weighin' on my heart, I guess I'm done
Already all but given up
I'm burnin' days 'til the weekends, I start, I just pretend
I'm not where I am
Should I cancеl my plans?

[Chorus]
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on strobе 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
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on 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

[Verse 2]
When my friend died, it's been years, still grievin'
And I thought time would be somehow healin'
When love finds me, I'm too numb to feel it
Oh, why the fuck am I still here breathin'?
Well, I would pray but I don't believe it
Oh, woe is me but I don't care either
Life is not the way that it seems, but
Maybe this'll all be a dream

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll stay steady, balanced on the rope, I guess I'm done
All ready to rely on the hope
I'm burnin' days 'til the weekends, and start, I just pretend
I'm not where I am
Should I cancel my plans?

[Chorus]
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on 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
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on 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

[Bridge]
I'm a wreck, I hate it
Take me to the other side
Don't look in my eyes

[Verse 3]
It's almost morning, I'm still not leavin'
It's wearin' off but I still can feel it
Another one and I'll touch the ceiling
Oh, this is all I want to be

[Chorus]
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on 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
Saturday night, it's givin' me a reason to rely on 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

Thanks for being a huge inspiration to my songwriting. Writing songs and performing them is the reason I got out of homelessness at 17. I was homeless since I was 13. I’m 21 now and I’m about to release my third album, just wanna say I’m proud of you Ed and I hope one day people will be proud of me too

[hussainrangadi]

This is such a "save myself" vibe from his divide album! <'3

LYRICS:

I overthink and have troubles sleepin'
The pub is gone and I don't have a reason
There's no doctor to stop this bleedin'
So I left home and jumped in the deep end
Took a job for Dad I think just to please him
So when I quiet, I just kept it secret
I have friends but no longer see them
It's just me now and all my demons

I have a way in all my heart, I guess I'm done
Already all the gettin' off and burnin' days till the weekends
And stop, I just pretend I'm not where I am
And I cancel my plans

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag
Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

When my friend died, it's been years, still grievin'
Another time would be somehow healin'
And love finds me, I'm too numb to feel it
Oh, why the fuck am I still here breathin'?
Well, I would pray but I don't believe it
The world miss me but I don't care either
Life is not the way that it seems but
Maybe this is the love you're dreamin'

I'll stay steady ridin' stone and rope, I guess I'm done
All ready to rely on the hope, I'm done the days till the weekends
And stop, I just pretend I'm not where I am
Should I cancel my plans?

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag
Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

I'm a wreck, hate it
Take me to the other side
Don't look in my eyes

It's almost morning, I'm still not leavin'
It's wearin' off but I still can feel it
Another one and I'll touch the ceiling
But this is all I want to be

Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag
Saturday night is givin' me a reason to rely on a strobe light
The lifeline of a promise in a shuttle glass
And I'll take that if you're givin' out love from a plastic bag

Ed Sheeran is such an awesome performer. I attended first Ed Sheeran concert this last week, and his performance blew me away.

Who needs a studio version when we have this.
Also who needs friends when we have plastic bags😢

Keep looking forward to anyone struggling with addiction or mental health or anything else
