This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Is Jesus your pal?
Do you call out his name,
When your concience is shivering?
Do you need someone too,
Just like those people who
Find peace in someone's promises?
You sure don't need my promises...
So come and sit on my box,
Enjoy the view of this water,
Where my lifeboat is sinking.
If you open your eyes,
Take a look at this mess,
Could you fake your reflection, child?
If you reach out for more,
You'll find nothing but sorrow.
'Cause knowledge is hollow.
And pride is hard to swallow.
So come and sit on my box,
Take a view of this water,
Where my lifeboat is sinking.
Do you call out his name,
When your concience is shivering?
Do you need someone too,
Just like those people who
Find peace in someone's promises?
You sure don't need my promises...
So come and sit on my box,
Enjoy the view of this water,
Where my lifeboat is sinking.
If you open your eyes,
Take a look at this mess,
Could you fake your reflection, child?
If you reach out for more,
You'll find nothing but sorrow.
'Cause knowledge is hollow.
And pride is hard to swallow.
So come and sit on my box,
Take a view of this water,
Where my lifeboat is sinking.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
WHAT THE HECK DOES THIS SONG MEAN?!!?
I understand certain lines...but I can't seem to connect the lines into any sort of cohesive meaning.
"Is Jesus your pal? Do you call out his name, when your concience is shivering?"
That obviously is somewhat mocking people who consider themselves to have a friend in Jesus but only turn to him when they are scared or want something.
"Lifeboat is sinking" Something sad.....is happening....
Agh!!! What does it all mean?!
