This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I walk with the crowd, alone,
Unseen, or am I imagining?
it's easy keep hiding at home
Still healing
I teach myself how to stay calm
When they wish to behold me
They may, take and divide my time
The secret, no one told me...
Like creatures of the night, they follow...
Bearing the wrong side
Is hard for me sometimes
This need I still can recognize
To swim in the oceans of vanity
Some of us enjoy the rain
Choir: and thunder
For me all the shadows are bright
I'm burning in the starlight and I
Hope to feel light as a kite
And fly towards the twilight of my life
Like creatures of the night, they follow...
Bearing the wrong side
Is hard for me sometimes
And now they
have disappointed my broken heart
I'm dancing, they're demanding
The unknown and innocent days are gone
Taken without asking
Safe, further away,
I'll disappear like a mountain without a trace
They tied a knot on my life
It gets tighter when I try to hide.
"They live like the vultures, for a filthy anecdote
They go thru my bones to find just one odd note
I welcomed them kindly, thus they have the right
To leave me in darkness with my shattered heart"
A face of a newly wedded clown
Doesn't offer you the high
Now you're lower than the poor souls you feed
Built the walls out of silence
I will not be taken there anymore
What is wrong with your eyes?
Sad for the right reasons?
I'll show you the ashes of life
No empathy behind your eyes
Sleeping like an angel every night
I don't feel Safe,
Can't disappear without getting my last embrace
They tied a knot on my life
It gets tighter when I try to hide.
Safe, further away,
Can't disappear without getting my last embrace
Once the time finally comes
Will they dig me up from my unmarked grave?
Unseen, or am I imagining?
it's easy keep hiding at home
Still healing
I teach myself how to stay calm
When they wish to behold me
They may, take and divide my time
The secret, no one told me...
Like creatures of the night, they follow...
Bearing the wrong side
Is hard for me sometimes
This need I still can recognize
To swim in the oceans of vanity
Some of us enjoy the rain
Choir: and thunder
For me all the shadows are bright
I'm burning in the starlight and I
Hope to feel light as a kite
And fly towards the twilight of my life
Like creatures of the night, they follow...
Bearing the wrong side
Is hard for me sometimes
And now they
have disappointed my broken heart
I'm dancing, they're demanding
The unknown and innocent days are gone
Taken without asking
Safe, further away,
I'll disappear like a mountain without a trace
They tied a knot on my life
It gets tighter when I try to hide.
"They live like the vultures, for a filthy anecdote
They go thru my bones to find just one odd note
I welcomed them kindly, thus they have the right
To leave me in darkness with my shattered heart"
A face of a newly wedded clown
Doesn't offer you the high
Now you're lower than the poor souls you feed
Built the walls out of silence
I will not be taken there anymore
What is wrong with your eyes?
Sad for the right reasons?
I'll show you the ashes of life
No empathy behind your eyes
Sleeping like an angel every night
I don't feel Safe,
Can't disappear without getting my last embrace
They tied a knot on my life
It gets tighter when I try to hide.
Safe, further away,
Can't disappear without getting my last embrace
Once the time finally comes
Will they dig me up from my unmarked grave?

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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
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.
Hmm..I have to say I never would have interpreted this song as being about Tony and about the fans, etc. To me, it is about the people of his past who have hurt him and who cannot just be forgotten, no matter how far he tries to run away. He feels like he can't escape the past.
