This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I was under the boss when they made him
and I was made a short time after that
I was under oath when I testified
I’m under government protection
now they're calling me a rat
Mr. Moran, that’s who I am
some call me Sal, some call me Sam
some call me when they’re in a jam
’cause I’m the man, I’m Mr. Moran
I eat punks like you, I do for breakfast
you're just a bowl of cereal to me
I might be from deep in the heart of Texas
or maybe I’m from New York
make that Knoxville, Tennessee
Mr. Moran, that’s who I am…
they will motherfuck me in a heartbeat
but first they've got to find me to do that
I’ve been selling Ecstasy in Arizona
under government protection
now who’s a fuckin’ rat?
Mr. Moran…
and I was made a short time after that
I was under oath when I testified
I’m under government protection
now they're calling me a rat
Mr. Moran, that’s who I am
some call me Sal, some call me Sam
some call me when they’re in a jam
’cause I’m the man, I’m Mr. Moran
I eat punks like you, I do for breakfast
you're just a bowl of cereal to me
I might be from deep in the heart of Texas
or maybe I’m from New York
make that Knoxville, Tennessee
Mr. Moran, that’s who I am…
they will motherfuck me in a heartbeat
but first they've got to find me to do that
I’ve been selling Ecstasy in Arizona
under government protection
now who’s a fuckin’ rat?
Mr. Moran…

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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Page

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.
This is a very little known fact. I'm from Massachusetts, and at a prep school in MA, called St. John's Prep, there is a teacher there called Mr. Moran who went to school with Dicky Barrett. There's probably no connection. Just a very funny coincidence.
