Shine

3 Doors Down

This is about to be history
Nobody's gonna take it from me
I'm gonna show you something you've got to see
Trust me people will remember this day cause

It's my time to shine
Cause I know what could be mine
It's all layin' on the line so
It's my time
It's my time to shine

I think about this moment day and night
This is the only thing that I've ever known
I believe I can and I think I'm right
I'm gonna take this back to where it belongs cause

It's my time to shine
Cause I know what could be mine
It's all layin' on the line so
It's my time
It's my time to shine

I'll shine
I'll shine

It's my time to shine
I know what could be mine
It's all layin' on the line so
It's my time
It's my time to shine

    this song was meant for the olympics, the song is also just plain about reaching your potential.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Silent Planet
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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Blue
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.
