This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
The night will come
And rip away,
Her wings of innocence through every word we say
Maybe it's time,
To spit out the core of our rotting union
Hopefully before it chokes
Us to our senses.
Guess it's too bad,
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Swim in the smoke
The hero will drown
Intoxicating beauty tears everything down
But still our hands are
Bound at the wrist
This romantic tragedy is suffocating from your fist,
In a sea of fire.
Guess its to bad,
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Hero, hero, this word you'll never know
Guess it's to bad
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Away, away, away. They're taking it away
And rip away,
Her wings of innocence through every word we say
Maybe it's time,
To spit out the core of our rotting union
Hopefully before it chokes
Us to our senses.
Guess it's too bad,
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Swim in the smoke
The hero will drown
Intoxicating beauty tears everything down
But still our hands are
Bound at the wrist
This romantic tragedy is suffocating from your fist,
In a sea of fire.
Guess its to bad,
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Hero, hero, this word you'll never know
Guess it's to bad
That everything we have
Is taken away.
Away, away, away. They're taking it away

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the 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,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
......he said its from the game "need for speed: underground" wa jeez :/
best song ever, sty kicks ass
story of the years awesome!!
The song is simply about a guy who's loosing control over his relationship. The guy is a Hero because he tries to save the relationship but fails ( The hero will drown) And he will never succeed ( Hero- this word you'll never know) The girl avoids the problem constantly so when he talks to her he rips her innocence by facing the problem.
I think it is about a relationship.
------'The night will come and rip away her wings of innocence through every word we say' I think means that the guy tries to talk to her about their problems and she pushes away. 'Maybe it's time to spit out the core of our rotting union hopefully before it chokes us to our senses' means he their messed up relationship (the core of rotting union) needs to be 'spit out' (ended) 'before it chokes us to our senses' which means that if they stay together things might get worse, physically or verbally.
------'Guess it's too bad that everything we had was taken away' means that he sort of regrets their relationship ending and sort of not regretting it ending.
------'Swim in the smoke' is like him trying to find the truth through all the lies. 'The hero will drown' is their relationship coming to an end because he couldn't fix them. 'Intoxicating beauty tears everything down' is her completely ruining their relationship. 'But still our hands are bound at the wrist' means that all though they are broken up they can't forget about what happened. 'This romantic tragedy is suffocating from your fist in a sea of fire' means that she ended ended it all when she hit him in a 'sea of fire' meaning a rage of anger.
------'Hero, hero this word you'll never know' means that she will never understand what she did wrong and how to fix that problem.
But, that's just my opinion and I think that we all are basically saying the same thing.
The night will come And rip away, Her wings of innocence through every word we say ......... (One day, when we someone musters up enough courage to confront her about her wrongdoing, she won't seem so innocent.)
Maybe it's time, To spit out the core of our rotting union Hopefully before it chokes Us to our senses. ............ (Maybe now is the time to confront her about the main source of the problem; and quickly before we go blinded, deafened, and muted from the roots of the truth)
Guess it's too bad, That everything we have Is taken away. ........... (Since nobody can address the problem, everything that we own will be hers)
Swim in the smoke The hero will drown Intoxicating beauty tears everything down .......... (We now have nothing, even for one who finally chose to confront her, has now given in to her beauty)
But still our hands are Bound at the wrist This romantic tragedy is suffocating from your fist, In a sea of fire. ........... (The problem was never resolved, so the problem got worse. We now linger in the void of surrender and weakness unable to resist; for she is in control of our every move. We are doomed.)
Hero, hero, this word you'll never know ........... (No one is worthy enough to put a halt to this chaos)
Good song, was on Need For Speed: Underground.
haha whoa did you just call SOTY underground??? doubtful!
I love the "I <i>guess</i> it's too bad"
Like yeah... sure, I guess I'm sorry. Maybe.
Awesome song
The hero gave up and took the easy way out, and i think thats what this song is about.
