This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones
It seems to me that when I die, these words will be written on my stone
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
With nothin' in between
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
Leave my heart open, but it stays right here in its cage
I know that in the morning, I'll see us in the light up on the hill
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The fire beneath my feet is burnin' bright
The way that I've been holdin' on so tight
With nothin' in between
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
And I've been waiting for this time to come around
But, baby, runnin' after you is like chasin' the clouds
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen
The story of my life, I give her hope (give her hope)
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of)
The story of my life
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones
It seems to me that when I die, these words will be written on my stone
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
With nothin' in between
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
Leave my heart open, but it stays right here in its cage
I know that in the morning, I'll see us in the light up on the hill
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The fire beneath my feet is burnin' bright
The way that I've been holdin' on so tight
With nothin' in between
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
And I've been waiting for this time to come around
But, baby, runnin' after you is like chasin' the clouds
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm
And time is frozen
The story of my life, I give her hope (give her hope)
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of)
The story of my life
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life

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”
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
Just A Little Lovin'

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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
This is a very beautiful song, I did literature at school so I'll try my best to explain the meaning, here goes:
It starts of with the line "written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain":- Figuratively, he built a wall to protect his emotions but it wasn't just there because he wanted to guard himself it was because of a past relationship that went wrong. In the relationship before, he "left his heart open":-He confessed his love but now "it stays right here empty for days":-It's hollow since she left.
"She told me in the morning She don't feel the same about us in her bones It seems to me that when I die These words will be written on my stone" :-In the morning she broke up with him and he will always remember the words that hurt him before she left. And that hurt was one of the reasons he is restrained now.
"And I'll be gone, gone tonight The ground beneath my feet is open wide The way that I've been holding on too tight But nothing in between.":- He left the house that night but he was hesitant to leave because he was holding on to the relationship that doesn't exist anymore.
"The story of my life I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time... Is frozen":- This is the current relationship and how he shows he cares but it reminds him of his past love hence "time is frozen". It's also an example of a pun, being he keeps her "warm" but time is "frozen".
"The story of my life I give her hope I spend her love until she's broke inside":-The things he does to show that he cares gives her hope he'll let his guard down but he doesn't and she's broken. This also a play on words with spending love till she's broke. "Written on these walls Are the colors I can't change":- "colors" represents feelings that he can't change an is used because in writing you can use different colors. So it's a nice example of symbolism. "Leave my heart open But it stays right here in its cage":-He wants to express his feelings but it stays caged up behind his walls.
"I know that in the morning now I see us in the light upon the hill Although I am broken My heart is untamed still":- Remember in the morning she broke up with him, this either the same day or another but either way his heart is broken but he still loves her uncontrollably.
"And I'll be waiting for this time To come around But baby running after you Is like chasing the clouds":-He's waiting for his love to come back even though he realizes she won't be his.
Loved your meaning! :)
Your meaning is pretty much what i think bout the song :3
I think this might be a stretch. Isn't much simplier to believe that he's committing suicide? He was an obsessive lover, who was overly attached until she couldn't be with him anymore, broke up with him, and then writes a suicide note that's the "story of his life" that they hope will be on his tombstone.
@Maribelle I disagree. The chorus are one night stands. Take her home, sex all night, keep her warm, repeat all over next and next days, he is living one day, not moving, time is frozen. Charm her, give her hope of love and relationship and fuck but no, the next days. Spend her chances of finding love and relationship she looks for. She gets used till shes broke inside. That is his story.
