I used to see those red tail lights
Heading for another town
And wish that I was on my way

Looking back on those summer nights
I was wasting time, fooling 'round
And there was nothing here to make me stay

Oh, but that night I met you
The night you came through made me realize
There's no way I could leave
You made me believe and now when I look in your eyes

I could walk through fire, I could feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, right back to you
And as the flames get higher, you know I'll get stronger
Baby, I would walk through fire

It's crazy how these things work out
I used to think I had no chance
And I somehow thought you'd slip away

You pulled me through the fear and doubt
Gave me all I'm looking for
Everything I needed to stay

How could something so good
Something so simple, get serious?
How could someone so right come into my life
And now I just want you to know

I could walk through fire, I could feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, right back to you
And as the flames get higher, you know I'll get stronger
Baby, I could walk through fire

And I would go anywhere, I would do anything
I do what you want me to, you know that I would
I want you to know that whenever you need me, yeah
Ooh, wherever you are, no matter how far
You know I'll be coming for you

I could walk through fire, I could feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, to get right back to you
And when the flames get higher, you know I'll get stronger
And baby, I could walk through fire

Baby, I could walk through fire, right back to you
And I could walk through fire, and I could walk through fire
And I could walk through fire, right back to you, yeah

    Is there any way to get the title changed from "Trough" to "Through"?

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.

Amazing
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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
