This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Well I felt you drain the blood
From my left ventricle
Anytime you said you would
Change my heart into petrified wood
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
Open your heart
Open your hands
I love the moment that you command
It's true
Loving you
Open your heart
Open your hands
I love the moment that you command
It's true
Loving you
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
I felt you drain the blood
From my left ventricle
Anytime you said you would
Change my heart into petrified wood
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight
From my left ventricle
Anytime you said you would
Change my heart into petrified wood
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
Open your heart
Open your hands
I love the moment that you command
It's true
Loving you
Open your heart
Open your hands
I love the moment that you command
It's true
Loving you
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
I felt you drain the blood
From my left ventricle
Anytime you said you would
Change my heart into petrified wood
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To make it through the night
To make it through the night
Oh oh oh I'm really trying
To save you tonight
To save you tonight

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
Plastic Bag

“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.
Unless they meant for this to be some sci-fi song about vampires or murder... I'm guessing the "left ventricle..." part(s) are meant to say that his body has gone numb (the left ventricle carries blood to the body); I also think the "...petrified wood" parts that follow are meant to say that his heart would figuratively turn old and stone-like.
But, overall, I think this is a song is about a person that's fallen for and who wants to save a troubled person. The person in the song yearns to be let into their love interest's heart, despite their love interest's warning that they'd just end up cause the person hurt. The person in the song wants to help them, but, at the same time, they also want to make it through the dark time in their relationship.
I also think there are other possible interpretations, of course and it'd be interesting to hear other theories! This is a great song--the best on Hometowns, if not for "Frank, AB"!
Strong and steady beat <br /> <br /> both of them want to FEEL something both are attracted to each other <br /> but they both have different views on life and love<br /> and they are both trying to win each other for their own reason<br /> <br /> great song dont know if anything, said made sense so, i apologize if i wasted your time<br /> <br />
