This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Rituals are carried out for reasons quite unknown
The fact remains you have no mind to call your own
Condoned by a bible I have written for myself
No duplicates, there's only one inside my shelf
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need
A system of tyranny rages uncontrolled
One day soon you'll find it now controls your soul
Nothing's changed for many years, your dreams are run with rats
They won't hesitate to rip the shirt off your back
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need
What will you do when your future unfolds?
Life as you've known it, you'll be much too old
Days of your youth were all spent in defense
Memories are painful, the thoughts you resent
I know I was meant for much better things
No time to sleep, so I've lost all my dreams
Look forward to nothing, look back at the same
I'll spend my life here and deal with the pain
The choice has been made, you all will be slaves
Unreasonable power
I mock at the suffering and grow strong by the hour
Hatred grows among the ones destined to be slaves
But only life itself can lead you to your grave
Lost in thoughts of what you're told to do for someone else
I don't think you're superior, you're making my life hell
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need
The fact remains you have no mind to call your own
Condoned by a bible I have written for myself
No duplicates, there's only one inside my shelf
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need
A system of tyranny rages uncontrolled
One day soon you'll find it now controls your soul
Nothing's changed for many years, your dreams are run with rats
They won't hesitate to rip the shirt off your back
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need
What will you do when your future unfolds?
Life as you've known it, you'll be much too old
Days of your youth were all spent in defense
Memories are painful, the thoughts you resent
I know I was meant for much better things
No time to sleep, so I've lost all my dreams
Look forward to nothing, look back at the same
I'll spend my life here and deal with the pain
The choice has been made, you all will be slaves
Unreasonable power
I mock at the suffering and grow strong by the hour
Hatred grows among the ones destined to be slaves
But only life itself can lead you to your grave
Lost in thoughts of what you're told to do for someone else
I don't think you're superior, you're making my life hell
The spell can't be broken
You all have been chosen
You're dying for me
Demoralized servant to my every need

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”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[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.
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
This song seems to talk about religious followers who are manipulated by religious figureheads seeking only profit. It conveys a message to resist systems of control and the struggle for personal freedom and individuality. Followers lose themselves in their beliefs, becoming mindless servants who follow a bible that the leaders have written themselves that better fits their goals and desires. Though religion isn't the only format that leaders will use to control others, it is a common one used by politicians in certain countries or even US states where that is a frequent aspect that plays an important part in who gets elected.
