This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
All trapped in this cabin
Lost in woods
With my hero
It strolls
Around the room
Rocking chair
When there's no one there
And me
Left to see
Disbelief
No take my hand
Now
Let Bruce go
Take me instead
I just lust for this
Forget all the words
It froze my stair
Now
Let Bruce go
Take me instead
Lost in woods
With my hero
It strolls
Around the room
Rocking chair
When there's no one there
And me
Left to see
Disbelief
No take my hand
Now
Let Bruce go
Take me instead
I just lust for this
Forget all the words
It froze my stair
Now
Let Bruce go
Take me instead

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”

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

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.
These are the proper lyrics:
Woah All this trapped in this cabin Lost in woods with my hero It strolls around the room Rocking chair When there's no one there And me left to see... disbelief Now take my hand Now let bruce go Take me instead I'll just lust for this Forget all the words It froze my stare Now let bruce go Take me instead
People consider these guys to be mindless noise, as far as I'm concerned, these lyrics hold something powerful and personal.
My interpretation is that the speaker's father killed the speaker's brother: Bruce. It's the speaker's struggle of trying to come to terms with the fact that his father, his hero, has killed his brother. He's crying out to be taken instead of his brother.
Really powerful lyrics, if you ask me, but it's kinda self-explanatory, I guess I was the only person to come around with an interpretation :D
it tells a story, and that's the story. I was surprised.
like I said, everything has some humor in it except the lyrics
Haha. Good interpretation, SkyCameFalling, but it's actually about the Evil Dead movies. The quote at the beginning is from Evil Dead 3- Army of Darkness. "Bruce" refers to Bruce Campbell, who plays the hero Ash. The first two movies take place in a cabin in the woods, hence the opening lines. The rocking chair line refers to a scene where a rocking chair starts rocking by itself, and the "take my hand" part is most likely referring to this scene: youtube.com/watch
