This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
One more day down these stairs
His room is cold now and it hurts like hell
He holds tight, he stares
It's almost over and it's running through his head
They don't know me,
They don't know more than I show
She's walking up to him so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
This one is different 'cause she's lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more one day
One more smile, one more bed
Her eyes are dark now and they hurt like hell
She's so still, she's dead
She knows it's over, she holds her head and says
They can't love me,
They can't love what I don't show
He's walking up to her so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
This one is different 'cause he's lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more
There have been too many times
When I've drowned you with these perfect lines
And you've heard me say that I can cure you
This morning I woke up with this overwhelming fear of love
And I'm not sure if I can resurrect you
Now I'm walking up to you so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
I swear it's different 'cause I'm lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more one day
His room is cold now and it hurts like hell
He holds tight, he stares
It's almost over and it's running through his head
They don't know me,
They don't know more than I show
She's walking up to him so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
This one is different 'cause she's lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more one day
One more smile, one more bed
Her eyes are dark now and they hurt like hell
She's so still, she's dead
She knows it's over, she holds her head and says
They can't love me,
They can't love what I don't show
He's walking up to her so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
This one is different 'cause he's lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more
There have been too many times
When I've drowned you with these perfect lines
And you've heard me say that I can cure you
This morning I woke up with this overwhelming fear of love
And I'm not sure if I can resurrect you
Now I'm walking up to you so slowly
It's about time, it's about time to fly away but wait
I swear it's different 'cause I'm lonely
Fold your wings, you'll need them more one day

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
This song gave me the chills when I heard an acoustic version of it because i could really focus and the lyrics. I agree with blackat16. It reminds me of my own struggles.
To me, this is a story about two people who push everyone away. "They can't love me, they can't love what they don't show" That's the exact kind of problem people have with their own families.
one more day down these stairs his room is cold now and it hurts like hell he holds tight, he stares it�s almost over and it�s running through his head they don�t know me they don�t know more than i show
To me, the loneliness comes from broken ties with the people who should love you-- your family. And then it leaves you broken. And these two people are looking for something in each other to fill what they've lost in their own lives. "but wait, this one's different cause she's lonely"-- they need each other.
But even though these people hurt the same way, anything between them won't work out because they can't open up.
and you�ve heard me say that i can cure you this morning i woke up with this overwhelming fear of love and i�m not sure if i can resurrect you
Like all of you said, the whole empty words without actions comes into play, when they realize they can't fix each other, because they're scared of the very same thing--Love. So sad. Heartbreaking in its own sense of irony.
When I first listened to the lyrics in this song, I thought they were about two people (the guy in the first verse and the girl in the second) who normally sleep around with lots of different people, but then they find each other, and they want to "fold their wings." In other words, they are actually falling in love rather than lust.<br /> <br /> The last chorus when it switches from third to first person caught me off guard. At first, I believed that the narrator was the guy from the first verse the whole time, but when I thought about it, I thought that the singer was using all the other verses and choruses to make a point to someone he cares about. Someone he want to let know that he doesn't only lust her, but loves her.<br /> <br /> This is kind of a different view than the other ideas that have been posted, but my friend and I discussed it for an hour or so, and this is the conclusion we came up with. I like all the ideas that have been posted on here, especially blackat16's. The greatest part about it, though, is that none of us are right. Each individual will get something different out of the song, and that's what, ultimately, makes it such a wonderful song.
