Don't burn the pig
Throw it in the water again
See if it float or sink
Don't burn the pig

    think of all mankind being on a ladder (jacobs ladder) and mankind must be burned (judged) on each level to evacuate his solid form..allowing his volume of solid matter to become replaced with a lighter substance. a gas. (spirit) he progresses up the ladder because he is becoming lighter in substance. each ladder rung man progresses upward on. hes judged (burned and replaced with gas (spirit). thrown in fire and water. this is Gods methods of teaching man..and man is given a funny way of describing this method. its really unbelievable. by twisting words and saying "fire" symbolises falsehoods and "water" symbolising truth. orthodox religion is burning mankind (pigs) with their falsehoods as God delivers mankind from orthodox religion with truth (water).

    Mat 17:15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatic, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Silent Planet
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.

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
