This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feelin'
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head scream
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
'Cause livin' with me must have damn near killed you
And this is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head, scream
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Yet, yet, yet, no no
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handin' you a heart worth breakin'
And I've been wrong
I've been down
Been to the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head, scream
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet
Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet
Are we havin' fun yet?

Are we havin' fun yet?
Yet, yet, no, no

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I think that in every relationship between any two people, the interactions between them are only as complex as you are willing to look.
All this arguing about whether she wronged him or he wronged her is unnecessary, because it could easily go both ways. In a relationship neither partner is ever absolutely perfect.
This song is about how love is not always enough. They are/were in love with each other, but because of various logistical problems (she doesn't apologize when she's wrong about stuff, he's not enough of a man to "make it" regardless of what he attempts to do, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, like a wise man or a thief.) stupid little logistical things, which cause them to fight so much that they're now at the point of breaking up, and it kills him because he still loves her but he just doesn't know how to make it work.
Of course this is all from his point of view, so it's not necessarily 100% accurate either. HE THINKS that she never apologizes, and he thinks that he wouldn't be able to cut it as a poor man stealin. That may or may not be true in objective terms, but it's the guy's reality, and he's the narrator.
I think that this is the underlying dynamic of their relationship. Anything else that you guys want to say would probably fit right in. Like maybe she's cheating or something like that. I'm not sure about that, but the specifics are open to interpretation.
