This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
.:: April Showers ::.
Like April Showers on the slick cement
When I consider how our light is spent
Keeping the candles inside the cathedral
Hold on tight, Don't go into the night
So full of evil
Rain rain don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain rain don't go away
Though some may say please go away
Like the April Showers on the slick cement
And the roads once straight have now become so bent
Weaving through the trees of vain security
Rounding round the hardest rocks of hard morality
And the sacred cows
Feed on the green
While the least of these
Are dying on the streets
And they're crying...
Like April Showers on the slick cement
When I consider how our light is spent
Keeping the candles inside the cathedral
Hold on tight, Don't go into the night
So full of evil
Rain rain don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain rain don't go away
Though some may say please go away
Like the April Showers on the slick cement
And the roads once straight have now become so bent
Weaving through the trees of vain security
Rounding round the hardest rocks of hard morality
And the sacred cows
Feed on the green
While the least of these
Are dying on the streets
And they're crying...

@[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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
This song, as I interpret it, is about stepping out into the world as Jesus did, rather than hide inside the church walls and focus on your own personal morality, as many people in the church tend to do.
verse 1: candles inside the cathedral are people who limit themselves confines of church communities don't go outside and let their light shine to the world. It's scary to go out into the "evil" world, but it's what we're called to do.
chorus: the rain is uncomfortable and sometimes intimidating, but oh so necessary
verse 2: our vain security keeps us away from the people who need christ's love the most - the poor, unclean, foreign, forgotten. "hard morality" are those rules that some churches (particularly the more conservative) hold fast to, but can end up preventing us from doing Jesus's work. For example, hard morality might lead someone to avoid going into a bar, even though that might be the exact place where God's love needs to shine.
bridge: church people don't need more church. we've got Jesus and, yes, it's nice to grow in that relationship, but it's a waste of "resources," if you will, to make christians fat on christianity when the "least of these," the neglected, need but a taste of goodness to have their lives completely transformed.
