This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
An universal doom
Had covered these gray and abbhorent wastelands
This is how it's gonna be
Only pestilence and anguish in the last of them
They looked up with pain in heads
Endless pillars of cold steel tear the sky apart
An unified energy of everyone
Rage bleeds through the wires with contempt of Gaia
It's time to burn fucking hives
Burning down the hive
Lair of sick machines
Rage bleeds through their wires with contempt of Gaia
Burning down the hive
Rage bleeds through their wires with contempt of Gaia
Under the pale sun
Burnished metallic godless gears constructed intelligence from nothing
Monoliths stand elevated to bear our doom
Leave behind all you lived for
Disengage from their chains
Leave behind all you lived for
Now it's time to adapt
Misery of defeat
And the skyline will shut with an inhuman blast
Misery of defeat
Now there is no escape from this agony except death
Burn It Down
Had covered these gray and abbhorent wastelands
This is how it's gonna be
Only pestilence and anguish in the last of them
They looked up with pain in heads
Endless pillars of cold steel tear the sky apart
An unified energy of everyone
Rage bleeds through the wires with contempt of Gaia
It's time to burn fucking hives
Burning down the hive
Lair of sick machines
Rage bleeds through their wires with contempt of Gaia
Burning down the hive
Rage bleeds through their wires with contempt of Gaia
Under the pale sun
Burnished metallic godless gears constructed intelligence from nothing
Monoliths stand elevated to bear our doom
Leave behind all you lived for
Disengage from their chains
Leave behind all you lived for
Now it's time to adapt
Misery of defeat
And the skyline will shut with an inhuman blast
Misery of defeat
Now there is no escape from this agony except death
Burn It Down

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,

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
