This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I don't want you anymore
Summer's gone, and now I'm sure
The box behind my bed I'd saved
I took out with the trash today
Oh, the truth is I've met someone new
The truth is you probably have, too
The truth is I can't stand your face
When I think of all the love we made
Oh, we took a walk, we took a walk
Out by the Hudson River
The humid breeze, your need to please
It made my shoulders shiver
You asked me, "Baby girl, how long until my heart recovers?"
I'm sure the answer's never
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover
No, I'm not the only girl to save
Items past their expiration date
I sucked you up till my stomach churned
My throat closed, my eyes would burn
Someone told me love was supposed to hurt
But now I've learned
And I don't want this anymore
Like the hand-me-downs waiting by my door
I kept you around, but I don't know what for
So I took a walk all by myself from Riverside to South Street
It's two AM, I've let you in and whenever you're here I can't sleep
Is there any way to save you and me?
Baby, not that I've discovered
Enjoy taking all my covers
This is your last sleepover
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover
Summer's gone, and now I'm sure
The box behind my bed I'd saved
I took out with the trash today
Oh, the truth is I've met someone new
The truth is you probably have, too
The truth is I can't stand your face
When I think of all the love we made
Oh, we took a walk, we took a walk
Out by the Hudson River
The humid breeze, your need to please
It made my shoulders shiver
You asked me, "Baby girl, how long until my heart recovers?"
I'm sure the answer's never
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover
No, I'm not the only girl to save
Items past their expiration date
I sucked you up till my stomach churned
My throat closed, my eyes would burn
Someone told me love was supposed to hurt
But now I've learned
And I don't want this anymore
Like the hand-me-downs waiting by my door
I kept you around, but I don't know what for
So I took a walk all by myself from Riverside to South Street
It's two AM, I've let you in and whenever you're here I can't sleep
Is there any way to save you and me?
Baby, not that I've discovered
Enjoy taking all my covers
This is your last sleepover
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover
You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover

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.
