This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I get back home at a quarter to four
What you doing with your keys inside my door
Seventeen and you've never been here before
I tried my best not to put you down
There's a hole in my head where the words fall out
Don't care what faithless people say
Should I care
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
We take our chances everyday
We watch those bleeding hearts decay
I'd walk through walls, would it make you stay
I've burned my bridges and I've burned my friends
If I had my time, I'd do it again
Don't care what faithless people say
I don't care
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
(Oh, oh)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
(Oh, oh)
I don't wanna talk I wanna go home
There's a voice in my head, won't leave me alone
I want you to follow me home
'Cause I know this star that we transcend could be the only chance we get
Seventeen, I've never been here before (yeah)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
Burn to the end
What you doing with your keys inside my door
Seventeen and you've never been here before
I tried my best not to put you down
There's a hole in my head where the words fall out
Don't care what faithless people say
Should I care
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
We take our chances everyday
We watch those bleeding hearts decay
I'd walk through walls, would it make you stay
I've burned my bridges and I've burned my friends
If I had my time, I'd do it again
Don't care what faithless people say
I don't care
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
(Oh, oh)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
(Oh, oh)
I don't wanna talk I wanna go home
There's a voice in my head, won't leave me alone
I want you to follow me home
'Cause I know this star that we transcend could be the only chance we get
Seventeen, I've never been here before (yeah)
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
Seventeen,
(Oh, oh)
Don't change one thing
(Oh, oh)
Just burn to the end, at seventeen girl
Burn to the end

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.

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 watched a doco on Jet the other day and they explained this song...
Lead singer (Nick?) had just moved into an apartment that his friend had moved out of because he was moving out of the city and the landlords daughter had caught wind that the guy was moving out and Nick caught her and her boyfriend opening the door to the apartment. She was seventeen and apprently after the whole situation happened he got to thinking what he was like when he was seventeen and all the stuff he used to get up to.
'I get back home at a quarter to four What ya doin' with ya keys inside my door? Seventeen and you've never been here before
I try my best not to put you down But there's a hole in my head where the words fall out I don�t care what faithless people say Should I care?'
So thats like when he caught her and then
'We take our chances every day We watch those bleeding hearts decay I�d walk through walls, would it make you stay?
I burnt my bridges and I burned my friends If I had my time, I�d do it again I don't care what faithless people say I don't care'
Is like how he used to act and feel when he was seventeen.
I love this song, its so good. especially live!!
