This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I will set it up with you
We will get inside his head
And we will tell him how to leave a bitter land
I'll pretend I never know what the giants put them through
And all the shame he made in you
You are the bigger man
And the arms are crossed and the stills must all come down
It's time to separate the people from the men who disregard them
I will set it up with you
We will get inside his head
And we will tell him how to be a bigger man
The arms are crossed and the stills must all come down
It's time to separate the people from the men who disregard them
We will get inside his head
And we will tell him how to leave a bitter land
I'll pretend I never know what the giants put them through
And all the shame he made in you
You are the bigger man
And the arms are crossed and the stills must all come down
It's time to separate the people from the men who disregard them
I will set it up with you
We will get inside his head
And we will tell him how to be a bigger man
The arms are crossed and the stills must all come down
It's time to separate the people from the men who disregard them

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 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,

“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.

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 just read the novel 1984 and i think this song has a lot to do with it. the society is a strick toletarian police state that forces you to only think in one certain way. the government heads are opressing everyone. in the song "We" is the party and it gets in side winston's head and shows him how to function in just the right way. they inspire shame, are conservative and stern "the arms are crossed" and all the people are separated into three main levels, inner party, outer party, and the proles. and oceania is a bitter land. the proles separate from the inner party the most, who are the people who disregard everyone the most. oceania is the bitter land. i'm such a nerd.
i'm pretty sure that this is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard.
I'm not sure when this song was written (before or after the whole Iraq war) because I haven't looked much into it, but to me it sounds alot like Bush and the war.
"We will get inside his head And we will tell him how to leave a bitter land"
His being President Bush and the bitter land refering to the Middle East, which has always been fighting over land.
"And all the shame he made in you You are the bigger man"
Many people disliked the war and didn't support the war efforts causing "shame" for the soldiers. You are the bigger man (being bigger than Bush) for actually fighting on the front lines.
"It's time to separate the people from the men who disregard them"
The President and Congress sending the soldiers over there are the men disregarding, acting as if it is nothing. This line could possibly suggest it is time for a revolution.
