This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Started off as I fall in a ball of flame
Burning out on your sentiment, it's all in vain
Shot your 44 caliber words with aim
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Devastated and I hate it, see your eyes are insane
Gray and dissipated building just like rust on a chain drained
Dislocated echo in the things you say
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Your words are making me sick
No more lies, enough with your rhetoric
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut me off at the pass, as a hydroplane
Crashing down from your promises, all were fake
Shot your 44 caliber words with aim
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Formulated and I'm fated to withstand the pain
Wave of generated conscience from the edge of a blade
Feigned, fabricated echo in the things you say
You might have killed the heart but you left the brain
Your words are making me sick
No more lies, enough with your rhetoric
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Switch all the lights off, tell me what you want from me
Take my time and my energy
Turning you heart off came about so easily
It's not enough but it's plenty
Bleed in the black out, said that you'd be there for me
Now you're gone and we're history
Screaming your lungs out, say you want what's best for me
Give it up, you abandoned me
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Burning out on your sentiment, it's all in vain
Shot your 44 caliber words with aim
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Devastated and I hate it, see your eyes are insane
Gray and dissipated building just like rust on a chain drained
Dislocated echo in the things you say
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Your words are making me sick
No more lies, enough with your rhetoric
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Whoa, what you got to hide?
Whoa, you're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut me off at the pass, as a hydroplane
Crashing down from your promises, all were fake
Shot your 44 caliber words with aim
You might've killed the heart but you left the brain
Formulated and I'm fated to withstand the pain

Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now
Cut away, cut it all away now

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.
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.
I think its about being lied to. "No more lies Enough with your rhetoric" someone is telling him something that inst true, they are trying to convince him, persuade him, Rhetoric in a nutshell is the art of being persuasive. thats what ancient sophists did, taught anyone who wanted to learn, how to be persuasive, whether their message was truth or not.
but anyways.. "shot your .44 caliber words with aim, might of killed the heart, but left the brain" his heart is broken, but he is smart enough to see the lies (the rhetoric).
that's my opinion
