This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Words of war, they don't mean shit
If the war's for nothing.
I'll wait for now, so show me how
This all works,
'cause all these things just seem empty
And that's what hurts.
Chuck's chorus:
So I can't help but to question
What was real or what was concealed.
Did you need to abandon
And change face?
Jason's chorus:
If you started today would you miss it?
'cause we've been blind.
I don't want to believe
That the truth is lost so easily.
Was it a mistake taken the wrong way?
Through our worst days.
Or did loyalty not mean a goddamn thing
In the ending?
Chuck's chorus:
So I can't help but to question
What was real or what was concealed.
Though trial and error
Did take place, did you need to change face?
And abandon what was/is real
Or what we felt. Pulled heavy weight.
What grounded us, what astounded me.
Was it all for nothing?
Jason's chorus:
If you started today would you miss it?
'cause we've been blind.
And I don't want to believe
That the truth is lost so easily.
If you started today would you miss it?
'cause we've been blind.
And I don't want to believe
That the truth is lost so easily.
If the war's for nothing.
I'll wait for now, so show me how
This all works,
'cause all these things just seem empty
And that's what hurts.
Chuck's chorus:
So I can't help but to question
What was real or what was concealed.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
