This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You cannot protect
That which you cannot control
I lit a candle for you
But somebody blew it out
He comes to me in my dreams
And tells me that he's alright
That he's just been hiding out
Somewhere there is no light
Oh yeah, that'd be nice
And if you took it back
I wouldn't feel so uncertain
I wouldn't feel so uncertain
That when your body hit the earth
It opened up and swallowed you
She kept you safe in her hot center
And always tucked you in at night
And when you woke up nervous
She said, "Baby you're inside of me
You're safe inside my orange womb
There's no reason to worry
They bought him magnets
To form into different shapes
Small spheres of metal
Always carefully composed
He's making hexagons
He's making perfect squares
He's making triangles
He's making cylinders
And in the junkyard
A flock of robot screams
I give you murders
I grab it from his dreams
They’re laying eggs now
They’re hatching fever spells
And he eats them slowly
His blood is thinner now
Things slip sometimes
Things slip sometimes
Things slip sometimes
That which you cannot control
I lit a candle for you
But somebody blew it out
He comes to me in my dreams
And tells me that he's alright
That he's just been hiding out
Somewhere there is no light
Oh yeah, that'd be nice
And if you took it back
I wouldn't feel so uncertain
I wouldn't feel so uncertain
That when your body hit the earth
It opened up and swallowed you
She kept you safe in her hot center
And always tucked you in at night
And when you woke up nervous
She said, "Baby you're inside of me
You're safe inside my orange womb
There's no reason to worry
They bought him magnets
To form into different shapes
Small spheres of metal
Always carefully composed
He's making hexagons
He's making perfect squares
He's making triangles
He's making cylinders
And in the junkyard
A flock of robot screams
I give you murders
I grab it from his dreams
They’re laying eggs now
They’re hatching fever spells
And he eats them slowly
His blood is thinner now
Things slip sometimes
Things slip sometimes
Things slip sometimes

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
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/
Midnight
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
I don't really understand this song in the way I think it was intended.
I parted ways with someone and went through a really dark phase. In my time in isolation I learned CNC machining, (making perfect circles and shapes with screaming robots). It prompted me to contact them and let them know I was ok, once I made it to the other side. : )
