This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's out of my control
I never thought I'd hear
That our world was ending
And I feel so alone
And I can't stand to think
You were just pretending
Now my friends are telling me
You're out all night and wasted
But I don't care
'Cause I'm already dead
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab me in the back with no regret
Try and tell me you slipped just a little bit
It's my heart, you crushed it
A town so damn small
There's nowhere to hide
Not a rock to crawl under
I guess you'll never know
What you left behind
I hope you always wonder
I'll go with my friends
Stay out all night
And end up getting wasted
And love someone I don't even like
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab me in the back with no regret
Try and tell me you slipped just a little bit
It's my heart, you crushed it
How can you pretend you never knew me
I remember every inch of you
You'll be coming back when you find out
There's something missing
I don't want to get used to you being gone
There's a piece of my soul that's holding on
Something's missing
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab in the back with no regret
Try to tell me that you don't give a shit
It's my heart, you crushed it
It's my heart, you crushed it
It's my heart you will miss
I never thought I'd hear
That our world was ending
And I feel so alone
And I can't stand to think
You were just pretending
Now my friends are telling me
You're out all night and wasted
But I don't care
'Cause I'm already dead
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab me in the back with no regret
Try and tell me you slipped just a little bit
It's my heart, you crushed it
A town so damn small
There's nowhere to hide
Not a rock to crawl under
I guess you'll never know
What you left behind
I hope you always wonder
I'll go with my friends
Stay out all night
And end up getting wasted
And love someone I don't even like
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab me in the back with no regret
Try and tell me you slipped just a little bit
It's my heart, you crushed it
How can you pretend you never knew me
I remember every inch of you
You'll be coming back when you find out
There's something missing
I don't want to get used to you being gone
There's a piece of my soul that's holding on
Something's missing
I don't want to believe in all the lies
I don't want to relive it every night
It's something you never get over
How can you stab in the back with no regret
Try to tell me that you don't give a shit
It's my heart, you crushed it
It's my heart, you crushed it
It's my heart you will miss

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.
