This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Crawling around me
Sleepless eyes
Your hands, they haunt me
Finger tipping down my spine.
Heaven forbid,
well aware of your sins.
In the wake I'll be just like the rest.
Tell the sun don't fall,
so we'll never forget.
Heaven forbid, well aware of your sins.
In the wake I'll be just like the rest.
Past praying for.
Always kept quiet
Clenching my teeth.
Find me fighting the floor.
Raise me from my bones once more.
You're way past praying for.
I wouldn't want to wake you from yourself
Doesn't sit in your stomach just quite right.
Toying with time
Lascivious stares and a dangerous rhyme.
Sleepless eyes
Your hands, they haunt me
Finger tipping down my spine.
Heaven forbid,
well aware of your sins.
In the wake I'll be just like the rest.
Tell the sun don't fall,
so we'll never forget.
Heaven forbid, well aware of your sins.
In the wake I'll be just like the rest.
Past praying for.
Always kept quiet
Clenching my teeth.
Find me fighting the floor.
Raise me from my bones once more.
You're way past praying for.
I wouldn't want to wake you from yourself
Doesn't sit in your stomach just quite right.
Toying with time
Lascivious stares and a dangerous rhyme.

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.
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.
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.
i think that it's about sex, as well.
but she regrets it? "Your hands, they haunt me" not rape, but regret
maybe because he used her? "In the wake i'll be just like the rest." and that's why she regrets it.
This is an amazing song. Anyway "Your hands, they haunt me... finger tipping down my spine. Heaven forbid, well aware of your sins."
Sounds like sexual intercorse..
Probably unwanted fornication, or symbolism of remembering, reflecting and moving on.
i think its about someone kind of beyond hope in which there "way past praying for" and that there too far for her to help them.
versa rocks! =]
They did this song for a movie...But it didn't get picked so they just threw it onto the EP. I'm not sure what movie it's for, but it's probably based on the plot.
The first thing I thought was also sexual intercourse. I don't think it's unwanted, I think when she said "haunted" it meant more of a lingering feeling than a scared feeling. Bad choice of words?
if you watch their "Behind The Video" video for the music video, they say that they wrote it for a movie, but it didn't make it onto the soundtrack.
just in case no one know what movie this song was for, it was for Jennifer's Body.
Jennifer's body was great and so is Versaemerge. It should have made it onto the soundtrack. the thing is I actually thought this song went with that movie before I knew it was supposed to go on the soundtrack.
i feel like it wasn't rape but it wasn't completely voluntary either...almost as if she was pressured into sex and gave in but now realizes it was a mistake and it wasnt worth it
Given the fact that this was written for a movie, I'm curious as to how relevant this was to her to be able to write like this. seems very passionate and poetic, not to mention the musicianship is equally as impressive and gives the song much more personality. Great band.
