This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Sitting in a Dixon garden
Wishing that you and I weren’t parting
For the last time
The last time
And I said, why you wanna get married anyway?
That man’s got a family.
Then you say
Couldn’t wait on you forever
Or could I? Guess not.
There’s an awkward silence for the first time
So many years
As I recall, you used to be mine
And not some property of his
And I say, Ah-La, don’t go
Ah-La, stay
Ah-La, don’t go
Don’t go away
Maybe I should apologize
For I treated you so
And I’m so sorry that I left you here
Just wish I could’ve known
And you said
Well you never can tell
And it’s not your fault
See these things just happen when you’re dealing with hands on the clock of a woman
And he treats me fine
Anyways I’m getting older
And she says oh but I still miss sometimes
When the weather’s getting colder, she says
Do say goodbye
I’ll just see you later
She says, don’t make me cry
Cuz it’s enough just to know
That I won’t ever hold you close
And I won’t ever smell your skin
And I know how I’m supposed to feel
Here we go again
Wishing that you and I weren’t parting
For the last time
The last time
And I said, why you wanna get married anyway?
That man’s got a family.
Then you say
Couldn’t wait on you forever
Or could I? Guess not.
There’s an awkward silence for the first time
So many years
As I recall, you used to be mine
And not some property of his
And I say, Ah-La, don’t go
Ah-La, stay
Ah-La, don’t go
Don’t go away
Maybe I should apologize
For I treated you so
And I’m so sorry that I left you here
Just wish I could’ve known
And you said
Well you never can tell
And it’s not your fault
See these things just happen when you’re dealing with hands on the clock of a woman
And he treats me fine
Anyways I’m getting older
And she says oh but I still miss sometimes
When the weather’s getting colder, she says
Do say goodbye
I’ll just see you later
She says, don’t make me cry
Cuz it’s enough just to know
That I won’t ever hold you close
And I won’t ever smell your skin
And I know how I’m supposed to feel
Here we go again

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Punchline

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Damn, I think I just let the girl I love the most slip right out of my fingers, I left her by her house about 3 hrs ago, can't sleep, long story short, we have a long history but we didn't went out or even talk as much as we should, although we have been through many "goodbyes", something has kept us bonded for this last year. last night I saw her kissing a random guy, I don't know if this is it, but i might be watching the end of us right now. When I left her by her house, we talked, but I couldn't even shed one tear. I got home, as a said I couldn't sleep, I tried not to think about it, I failed, and I needed to listen to this song, I cried like a baby. Well done Joe, good song, such a humane song.
