This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's all been done before and
No one can listen to anyone's answers
They're drifting farther everyday
And they say
"We hold our hands to block the sun
We blame the light for what we've done
We look away so We'll forget what We've become"
First take what you want
Then you throw it away
This is the way of their world
Don't know what you've got
Until it's taken away
This is the way of your
World
When the night falls you know who you are
And you cast reflections as the mirror gathers rust
"It's so safe and lonely with you"
Lovers ripping in two
Grind away 'till nothing's left
There's nothing left inside
First take what you want
Then you throw it away
This is the way of their world
Don't know what you've got
Until it's taken away
This is the way of your
World
Your lives will fade before their time
And you'll never say goodbye
The end of all the things you know
And all of what you can be
It's fading fast before you
What we want, we are
No one can listen to anyone's answers
They're drifting farther everyday
And they say
"We hold our hands to block the sun
We blame the light for what we've done
We look away so We'll forget what We've become"
First take what you want
Then you throw it away
This is the way of their world
Don't know what you've got
Until it's taken away
This is the way of your
World
When the night falls you know who you are
And you cast reflections as the mirror gathers rust
"It's so safe and lonely with you"
Lovers ripping in two
Grind away 'till nothing's left
There's nothing left inside
First take what you want
Then you throw it away
This is the way of their world
Don't know what you've got
Until it's taken away
This is the way of your
World
Your lives will fade before their time
And you'll never say goodbye
The end of all the things you know
And all of what you can be
It's fading fast before you
What we want, we are

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

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.

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.
Here's what Ari wrote in an interview about the song:
"TWOYW- in GENERAL: A commentary on the unexamined life that many people lead: replete with abdication of responsibility- and ultimately how the writer (that's me) feels that this world is not his own (because although I understand, I cannot relate).
In specific- the first lines are defeatist- the idea that even though the "answers" have been around forever, no one cares enough to listen to them. It goes on to reference Plato's Cave, with the idea that the denizens blame knowledge for their unhappiness, and would rather live ignorant than self aware and vigilant.
The chorus is pretty self explanatory- when you don't know what you are and subsequently, what your purpose is, you never know what you really want or need.
The second verse hits on the idea that even the most self deluded or ignorant tend to have moments of clarity, and these often occur in the night time, when no one is around to distract or impress- but even then, projection on other people occurs.
Finally, the idea of a person with great internal conflict, and the analogy of the feelings that people have in a dimming relationship (afraid to end for need of safety but running out of the love that sustained it) and how that drains energy and life. And the wasted potential of the self aware human being resulting in a "death" before the body. The things we want define who we are- so know who you are, and you can get what you want!"
