This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
you knock it
you say you know
you drag your soul
it's all dirt and coal these days
you like it quick and clean
the good old machine
what's a scream mean in all this noise?
it's all fine
for me
oh if i stand here
cold and wailing like a baby
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break
you're on a moving train
it's you that's moving, not the train
why am i always catching people
on their way down?
it's all fine
for me
oh i can never notice
am i free?
i can never see them
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break
you knock it
you say you know
you drag your soul
it's all dirt and coal these days
you like it quick and clean
the good old machine
what's a scream mean in all this noise?
it's all fine for me
i like the long road
am i a soldier?
oh you could be here forever
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break
you say you know
you drag your soul
it's all dirt and coal these days
you like it quick and clean
the good old machine
what's a scream mean in all this noise?
it's all fine
for me
oh if i stand here
cold and wailing like a baby
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break
you're on a moving train
it's you that's moving, not the train
why am i always catching people
on their way down?
it's all fine
for me
oh i can never notice
am i free?
i can never see them
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break
you knock it
you say you know
you drag your soul
it's all dirt and coal these days
you like it quick and clean
the good old machine
what's a scream mean in all this noise?
it's all fine for me
i like the long road
am i a soldier?
oh you could be here forever
you got stones in your eyes
well that's no big surprise
make no mistake
we're all gonna break

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”

@[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.
