This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Well if I ever see the morning
Just like a lizard in the Spring
I'm gonna run out in the meadow
To catch the silence where it sings
I'm gonna force the Serengeti
To disappear into my eyes
And when I hear your voices calling
I'm gonna turn just inside out
Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found
Deep in the dust forgot and gathered
I'll grow a diamond in my chest
I make reflections as the moon shine
Turn to a villain as I rest
Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found
I know there is a hollow
I need to fill it with a draft
Of all the words that I won't say
And with a quiet whisper
I send a curse upon the day
That never used the Sun to see
The light
I'm gonna float up in the ceiling
I built a levee of the stars
And in my field of tired horses
I built a freeway through this farce
Well if I ever get that slumber
I'll be that mole deep in the ground
And I won't be found
Just like a lizard in the Spring
I'm gonna run out in the meadow
To catch the silence where it sings
I'm gonna force the Serengeti
To disappear into my eyes
And when I hear your voices calling
I'm gonna turn just inside out
Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found
Deep in the dust forgot and gathered
I'll grow a diamond in my chest
I make reflections as the moon shine
Turn to a villain as I rest
Well if I ever get to slumber
Just like a mole deep in the ground
Hell, I won't be found
I know there is a hollow
I need to fill it with a draft
Of all the words that I won't say
And with a quiet whisper
I send a curse upon the day
That never used the Sun to see
The light
I'm gonna float up in the ceiling
I built a levee of the stars
And in my field of tired horses
I built a freeway through this farce
Well if I ever get that slumber
I'll be that mole deep in the ground
And I won't be found

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
I think this song is about drinking. To me it seems to cover some very specific aspects of drinking, primarily drinking away sorrows.
"I'm gonna force the Serengeti To disappear into my eyes Then when I hear your voices callin' I'm gonna turn just inside out"
That moment when you're taking a drink and thinking of whatever troubles are on your mind, you force them inside yourself. Then, when your friends get your attention, you go back to being a goof, to be happy go lucky for a few moments.
"I know there is a hollow I need to fill it with a draft"
I actually think "draft" may be a double meaning here
"I'm gonna float up in the ceiling I built a levee of the stars And in my field of tired horses I built a freeway through this farce"
The mist interesting line here is the last one. If you dont know what a "farce" is, look it up. He built a freeway, an escape, through a comic display of himself.
I think by "Wont be found" he means that in the morning, his troubles will be gone, he will have lost them.
This is just my interpretation of course, but t strikes close to home for me, drinking for the wrong reason and regretting it in the morning.
