This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Pound pound was the loud sound
Down with the gavel's end
Silencing the crowd's loud chattering
Within the court galley
And gathered in to hear the judge hading him a given sentence
For sins with no forgiving penance
Tick tock went the clock from the juror's box
As they sit and watch and listen
For a form of hidden admittance
On facts forcing acquittance
I forward the bench
Sit in the stand
The bailiff gets there and stands
I swear and lift up my hand
The victim's fam is sitting position up front
What they wish me wicked I want
No fear can fit me or flaunt
These feelings fixed in my heart
They're here to hear out my part
As I get near to the start of my confession
God forgive me for I have sinned
It's been six months since my last confession
There is nowhere that I can run to
My soul I place in your hands
With great anticipation they're waiting
Tensions electrifying
Caught the court recorder perspiring
Ready to start typing
It happened fast like lightning
Describing the gun firing
Not realizing I'm live and vibrant
As my vibe changed tears from the eyes of the wife drained
But my veins were pumping
Adrenaline was rushing or something
I rambled off from the subject of how my love for his blood gushing
Was quickly interrupted by the judge with his judgement
That would halt my talk with abruptness
He said he need no jury to discuss it
He called it justice
He was disgusted by the murder and just handed down a verdict
He would have me speak no further
In his presence he gave me the death sentence
The sentence it fed their vengeance
But my mind was set in on the chair that wasn't set in by the one I had expected
As a tear hits my cheek
But not because I'm facing death
I guess it's because of the reason that I accept it
God forgive me for I have sinned
It's been six months since my last confession
There is nowhere that I can run to
My soul I place in your hands
I can't seem to forgive myself
How can I forgive myself
God I ask you for forgiveness
For what I have done
I can't seem to forgive myself
How can I forgive myself
God I ask you for forgiveness
For what I have done
God forgive me for I have sinned
It's been six months since my last confession
There is nowhere that I can run to
My soul I place in your hands
Down with the gavel's end
Silencing the crowd's loud chattering
Within the court galley
And gathered in to hear the judge hading him a given sentence
For sins with no forgiving penance
Tick tock went the clock from the juror's box
As they sit and watch and listen
For a form of hidden admittance
On facts forcing acquittance
I forward the bench
Sit in the stand
The bailiff gets there and stands
I swear and lift up my hand
The victim's fam is sitting position up front
What they wish me wicked I want
No fear can fit me or flaunt
These feelings fixed in my heart
They're here to hear out my part
As I get near to the start of my confession
God forgive me for I have sinned
It's been six months since my last confession

Mountain Song

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
