This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Got the kind of face everybody knows
Run around barefoot when it snows
Growin' out your hair 'cause you like it long
Fighting in the road 'cause you know it's wrong
People got a thing for the dangerous
You'll find it inside the best of us
Taking what they want like it's owed to them
Some of us do the best we can, some of us do the best we can
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Never met a man, said he did not try
Running from the truth time again in life
You can be the poor one, rich or wise
Everybody knows 'bout sacrifice
So put me in the water, put me in the fire
Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire
Seen the people come and I've seen them go
Talk all day but it's what they show, talk all day but it's what you show
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
People got a thing for the dangerous
You'll find it inside the best of us
Taking what they want like it's owed to them
Some of us do the best we can
Put me in the water, put me in the fire
Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire
Seen the people come and I've seen them go
Talk all day but it's what they show
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love, love, love
Run around barefoot when it snows
Growin' out your hair 'cause you like it long
Fighting in the road 'cause you know it's wrong
People got a thing for the dangerous
You'll find it inside the best of us
Taking what they want like it's owed to them
Some of us do the best we can, some of us do the best we can
Brothers, Brothers
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love

Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
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.
The guitar riff in this song sounds vaguely familiar, does anybody know what I speak of. Anyway, this is a song about how the world is divisive and in need of repair. It seems the lead singer admits that he is also part of the problem. I live the Christian message but there is a major flaw in the thinking there...If Jesus came with a sword, then why is he preaching about love. I guess tough love is better than no love.
