This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Don't know where to go from here
My thoughts are tangled, twisted fears
Been waitin' a while now on the dawn
Seems like the sun may never come
I made my way through the darkest night
To the break of day on the other side
For some time the light's been creepin' in
Now I'm feelin' like I could trust again
You're the only person who reminds me
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
You're the only person who reminds me
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone
I've been terrified of life for way too long
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
Been making plans and drawing maps
I plan to take the righteous path
And hope and pray it leads me back
To all the happiness I had
Been making lists and crossing off
Every kiss that wasn't love
And every word that stretched the truth
Like when she said she loved me
You're the only person who reminds me
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone
I've been terrified of life for way too long
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone (oh!)
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
Been making lists and crossing off
Every kiss that wasn't love
And every word that stretched the truth
Like when she said she loved me
My thoughts are tangled, twisted fears
Been waitin' a while now on the dawn
Seems like the sun may never come
I made my way through the darkest night
To the break of day on the other side
For some time the light's been creepin' in
Now I'm feelin' like I could trust again
You're the only person who reminds me
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
You're the only person who reminds me
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone
I've been terrified of life for way too long
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
Been making plans and drawing maps
I plan to take the righteous path
And hope and pray it leads me back
To all the happiness I had
Been making lists and crossing off
Every kiss that wasn't love
And every word that stretched the truth
Like when she said she loved me
You're the only person who reminds me
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone
I've been terrified of life for way too long
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Hold on now don't you blink or it's gone (oh!)
Oh no now don't you blink or it's gone
In another life who knows what we'd become?
Love is beautiful and true
Life is beautiful and new
Been making lists and crossing off
Every kiss that wasn't love
And every word that stretched the truth
Like when she said she loved me

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.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
This is the aftermath of "Forget and not slow down" were you can feel how Matt is restored and feeling good again.
He is totally reminded by God that with him, happiness is all arround, love is always there, and life is not terrifying again and although he is not forgetting all the bad moments he had, he is willing to be near God again.
