This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's dead or alive
You'll give up or survive
These lungs weren't made for breathing
I can see it in your eyes
This time you're hardly breathing
But don't be alarmed girl
This time we don't go up for air
(I love it when you're nervous)
This time we don't go up for air
Your arson will keep us here
We'll find a way out
Cause it's about time
For you to follow
It's Dead or alive
You'll give up or survive
These lungs weren't made for breathing
And the lock on the door
keeps your head to the floor
As the flames dance up the walls
You start to feel the heat against your back
Find the hall
Make the call
Save the girl or let her fall to her creation
You will see
I'll turn the tables back around in this penitentiary
Find a nice Spot in this room where you can...
Dig yourself much deeper in
You’re giving up on getting out
When your hell begins to win
(This is exactly what you wanted)
This is the ending that you started
(Your attempt was so half hearted)
Are you listening?
We'll find a way out
It's down to every man for himself
Hey, cause it's about time
For you to follow me because you're
Dead I'm alive
You give up I survive
Your lungs gave up on breathing
And the lock on the door
Keeps your head to the floor
As the flames dance up the walls
You start to feel the heat against your back
Find the hall
Make the call
Save the girl or let her fall to her creation
You will see
I'll turn the tables back around in this penitentiary
Find a nice Spot in this room where you can...

DEMO:
You almost thought that you had won
Dead or alive
Is that what you had in mind
Call your bluff
Listen up
Close your eyes
I recommend you take my advice
**
Save your air
This room is like your lungs once were
Save your tears
Evacuation slim to none
The flicker of the lights through the thick of the smoke
(Save your air)
And now you wish you’d make it out
(Save your tears)
Find the hall
Make the call
Save the girl or let her fall to her creation
You will see
I'll turn the tables back around in this penitentiary
Find a nice Spot in this room where you can...
You'll give up or survive
These lungs weren't made for breathing

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.
