This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
While on this earth, Jesus did a lot of talkin'
He proved it in His words and in His walkin'
Well, He was not a man of this world's design
I'm here to tell you, friends, He was one of a kind
He gave us many gifts, gifts from above
But the greatest of these, don't you know is love'
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
Playin' it easy everyday you get discouraged
Ah, sometimes you wanna turn and run, hide and worry
But don't be like the man who ran all his life
He never let the love of Heaven's light shine down
Around him and show him the key to peace, joy and eternity
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
When on that final Judgment Day
When I'm called up from out of the grave
And I'm standin' with the angels up in the sky
With Jesus and the Father side by side
I wanna hear Him say, "Job well done
Welcome home, my child, your race is run
You did some things to be proud of
But the greatest of these was when you showed love'
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
In the bottom of your heart
In the bottom of your heart
He proved it in His words and in His walkin'
Well, He was not a man of this world's design
I'm here to tell you, friends, He was one of a kind
He gave us many gifts, gifts from above
But the greatest of these, don't you know is love'
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
Playin' it easy everyday you get discouraged
Ah, sometimes you wanna turn and run, hide and worry
But don't be like the man who ran all his life
He never let the love of Heaven's light shine down
Around him and show him the key to peace, joy and eternity
Way down

Way down

Way down

Way down
(Way down in the bottom)
You can find the love of Jesus
In the bottom of your heart
In the bottom of your heart
In the bottom of your heart

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”
No Surprises
Radiohead

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
