This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I used to be a poor man
but now I'm really broke
Used to be a lemon
now I'm an artichoke
I used to be resourceful
Used to really care
I used to be on the fast track
now I'm goin' nowhere
'Cause I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I guess you just don't care about breakin' laws
when you're a lost cause
I used to be a stranger
but now I'm really strange
They won't get me now or later
'cause I'm outta their range
I'm sick, I got a fever
or maybe I'm just sick
Go ahead and cut me
but just make it quick
'Cause I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
If you got one passing over
Then I don't ever hear too much applause
'Cause I'm a lost cause
Mirror mirror inside my mind
Blow these bad thoughts away
I sure would like to feel mostly blind today
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
I used to be a poor man
but now I'm really broke
I used to be the punchline
now I'm everyone's joke
The truth is I've outcasted myself all along
But that's all right at least I get to sing this song
I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I'm a lost cause, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
but now I'm really broke
Used to be a lemon
now I'm an artichoke
I used to be resourceful
Used to really care
I used to be on the fast track
now I'm goin' nowhere
'Cause I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I guess you just don't care about breakin' laws
when you're a lost cause
I used to be a stranger
but now I'm really strange
They won't get me now or later
'cause I'm outta their range
I'm sick, I got a fever
or maybe I'm just sick
Go ahead and cut me
but just make it quick
'Cause I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
If you got one passing over
Then I don't ever hear too much applause
'Cause I'm a lost cause
Mirror mirror inside my mind
Blow these bad thoughts away
I sure would like to feel mostly blind today
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
I used to be a poor man
but now I'm really broke
I used to be the punchline
now I'm everyone's joke
The truth is I've outcasted myself all along
But that's all right at least I get to sing this song
I'm a loser, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I'm a lost cause, I'm a failure
I've sunk lower than a thief
I'm a dark cloud passing over
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
