This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
We fell so far from home
Conscious of all the questions you will never ask
I ran into you if you could ever reach a different ending
I'm holding my breath and we don't have long
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down
Don't worry babe
(We can work it out)
What have they done
Is this the only choice for us to completely give in
How could this happen
For all we know
This could have all been planned a long time ago
So why be alone
We won't be alone
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down
Let the tide walk alone
(Let the tide walk alone)
Rely on no one to pull it in
Did you think that it'd be different
Well so did I
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside
(Even as the world dissolves around us...)
But we are ok
(...we will watch it all come down)
Tonight is the only thing that matters
(Come down)
It's everything you've ever wanted
(Even as the world dissolves around us...)
But we are ok
(...we will watch it all come down)
And even as the world dissolves around us
(Come down)
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down
Conscious of all the questions you will never ask
I ran into you if you could ever reach a different ending
I'm holding my breath and we don't have long
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down
Don't worry babe
(We can work it out)
What have they done
Is this the only choice for us to completely give in
How could this happen
For all we know
This could have all been planned a long time ago
So why be alone
We won't be alone
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down
Let the tide walk alone
(Let the tide walk alone)
Rely on no one to pull it in
Did you think that it'd be different
Well so did I
But we are ok
Tonight is the only thing that matters
It's everything you've ever wanted
But we are ok
And even as the world dissolves around us
We'll sit inside
(Even as the world dissolves around us...)
But we are ok
(...we will watch it all come down)
Tonight is the only thing that matters
(Come down)
It's everything you've ever wanted
(Even as the world dissolves around us...)
But we are ok
(...we will watch it all come down)
And even as the world dissolves around us
(Come down)
We'll sit inside and watch it all come down

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
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.
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.
Those lyrics aren't right. Here are the right lyrics:
We fell so far from home, conscious of all the questions you will never ask. I'll wait and see if you can ever reach a different ending. I'm holding my breath, and we don't have long.
But we are ok, tonight is the only thing that matters. It's everything you've ever wanted. But we are ok, and even as the world dissolves around us we'll sit inside and watch it all come down.
Don't worry babe, we can work it out.
What have they done? Is this the only choice for us to completely give in, how could this happen? For all we know this could have all been planned a long time ago. So why be alone? We wont be alone...
But we are ok, tonight is the only thing that matters. It's everything you've ever wanted. But we are ok, and even as the world dissolves around us we'll sit inside and watch it all come down.
Let the tide walk alone. Rely on no one to pull it in. Did you think that it would be different? So did I...
But we are ok, tonight is the only thing that matters. It's everything you've ever wanted. But we are ok, and even as the world dissolves around us we'll sit inside and watch it all come down.
Even as the world dissolves around us we will watch it all come down.
