This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I woke up to a voice
Who said I had been dreaming
And I missed, I missed everything
I missed everything
Oh heaven, please help me
Help me from falling back again
In hibernation
A century of loneliness
So I stay at home
In my own world
And I kiss it all goodbye
Life never seemed so elegant
And so trite, and so trite
No love, no loss
There's only air
I feel no pain
There's only here
But oh, it shall be the end
Of endless sleep
I must stay awake
I only want to hear
And see what I see
Why is this all that I can hold in my hands?
All these phrases and voices buried in snow
Who said I had been dreaming
And I missed, I missed everything
I missed everything
Oh heaven, please help me
Help me from falling back again
In hibernation
A century of loneliness
So I stay at home
In my own world
And I kiss it all goodbye
Life never seemed so elegant
And so trite, and so trite
No love, no loss
There's only air
I feel no pain
There's only here
But oh, it shall be the end
Of endless sleep
I must stay awake
I only want to hear
And see what I see
Why is this all that I can hold in my hands?
All these phrases and voices buried in snow

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.
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.

“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.
I've always thought of this song as being about a person who is depressed. It relates to my depression very literally so I guess that's why.
'I woke up to a voice Who said I'm dreaming And I missed, I missed everything Oh I missed everything' To me this is like when I first realized I was depressed, the reality that I faced was like I had been living in this dream where I was so numb that I didn't pay attention anything, missing everything. 'Oh heaven, please help me Help me from falling back again In hibernation A century of loneliness' To me this part is like me, present day, asking God to help me from falling back into that depression where I was in a hibernation of sort, a time period where I slept constantly and isolated myself from the world, leaving myself lonely for what seemed like an eternity. 'So I stay at home In my own world' I didn't go to school or really anywhere much in this period of time because I didn't have the energy to go out into the world, I felt better in my own world, where I could just think. 'And I kiss it all goodbye Life never seemed so elegant' This kind of reminds me of how I never wanted to do any of the things that I normally would have loved, I couldn't bring myself to do anything but take pictures, because of how elegant they made life look. 'And so trite, so trite No love, no loss There's only air I feel no pain There's only here' Everything became so routine after a while, everything was numb. I had no feelings, I was just living through each day, I no longer felt the pain that caused my depression. 'But oh, it shall be the end Of endless sleep I must stay awake' I needed to literally stay awake, I had slept so much that I was missing everything. So I decided to try and at least pretend I was happy and try to go back into the world. 'I only want to hear And see what I see' This was really hard because I wasn't used facing the pain and I just wanted everything to be how I wanted to see it again, I wished for the more severe depression to come back over me again so I wouldn't have to face the pain, I could just continue ignoring any form of emotion. 'Why is this all that I can hold in my hands? All these phrases and voices buried in snow' I wondered why I wasn't able to overcome my depression as a whole, then I realized that everything was kind of frozen in a way, I was trying to let go of all these things that I had buried so deep inside of me that they were frozen and unable to get out.
