This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
If ever there's a reason to be swept up in the season
Of the fallen leaves
And if the days grew shorter
And the darkness drew its order
From the autumn grey
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
My weary eyes a bit too slow indeed
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the
Day away instead
To worry about the emptiness that comes
If ever there's a need to watch the afternoon just roll into
The evening sky
Find comfort in the finer things that keep you close that keep you safe
Within this room
When it comes down to me
And I grit my teeth
And I start to stall
When it comes down to me
If ever there's a reason to be swept up in the season
Of the fallen leaves
And if the days grew shorter
And the darkness drew its order
From the autumn grey
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
My weary eyes a bit too slow indeed
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
To worry about the emptiness that comes
To worry about the emptiness that comes
Of the fallen leaves
And if the days grew shorter
And the darkness drew its order
From the autumn grey
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
My weary eyes a bit too slow indeed
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the
Day away instead
To worry about the emptiness that comes
If ever there's a need to watch the afternoon just roll into
The evening sky
Find comfort in the finer things that keep you close that keep you safe
Within this room
When it comes down to me
And I grit my teeth
And I start to stall
When it comes down to me
If ever there's a reason to be swept up in the season
Of the fallen leaves
And if the days grew shorter
And the darkness drew its order
From the autumn grey
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
My weary eyes a bit too slow indeed
I'd rather sit this out and sleep the day away instead
To worry about the emptiness that comes
To worry about the emptiness that comes

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Having lost a child November of 2013 the lyrics make so much sense, especially since they are singing about Autumn. Autumn is the ending of all the seasons just as death is an ending. And yes I'd "rather sleep the day away" than deal with my cruel reality. "When it comes down to me and I grit my teeth and I start to stall" he's singing about the guilt associated with feeling pleasure. Well meaning friends try to get you to go out, be social again, but with losing a child one never knows when the tears will flow so we "stall", make excuses, avoid public places. I now grocery shop after 10 pm to avoid seeing anyone. The best descriptive line for me is "Find comfort in the finer things that keep you close that keep you safe Within this room". I used to be a very social person before, but now it is common for my car to sit in the driveway for days. It is so safe at home, no questions to answer, no "I'm doing well" lies to tell, just the choice to answer the phone or door or not, to just be able to cry or not without making others uncomfortable. Great song for the series "The Good Doctor" as Dr. Aaron Glassman deals with his daughter's death & the guilt he still feels.
Your conspicuous Bravery to capture your feelings in words is incredibly inspiring. Thank you for allowing me to see inside the challenge of losing a child. I wish I was your friend..
