This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I've been living in a k-hole
Ever since you went away
I've been down here day after day
I'd rather live in a trash can
Than see you happy with another man
Closed sign swinging in the window of the liquor store
Better get inside the kingdom and close the door
Andre was a young black Santa Claus
He didn't want to be like his daddy was
Better take the gun with you when you go
He'd rather be dead than anything he knows
Girl in the special economic zone
Closed sign swinging in the window of the liquor store
Better get inside the kingdom and close the door
Ever since you went away
I've been down here day after day
I'd rather live in a trash can
Than see you happy with another man
Closed sign swinging in the window of the liquor store
Better get inside the kingdom and close the door
Andre was a young black Santa Claus
He didn't want to be like his daddy was
Better take the gun with you when you go
He'd rather be dead than anything he knows
Girl in the special economic zone
Closed sign swinging in the window of the liquor store
Better get inside the kingdom and close the door

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,
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Just for informational purposes to people wondering about the title of the song: A "K-Hole" is a sensation experienced after consuming large quantities of "special K" or ketamine. It is described as a "K-Hole" because of the feelings of sinking into a pit and inability to move.

Berman seems to be such a burnout to me, I bet he's not even using k-hole metaphorically.
I like to think he wanted to drink a bottle of whiskey to forget his troubles but it was after 9PM and he had to go home and blow lines of K instead. Small doses of K are kind of like being drunk anyway.
Ok, according to an interview I read, this song is about the K Street Project which involves congressional republicans getting kickbacks from powerful lobbyists, wikipedia has a decent article about it. But that's probably just Berman trying to be witty and piss off the interviewer who was a total tool, it's probably still about drugs.
all i know to be true is that the strongest catalyst for his pre-TW#s drug addiction was crack + dilaudid. he was also drinking ridiculous amounts of vodka. when addicts have more than one vice they tend to do all kinds of drugs, so i'm pretty sure he was using ketamine.
it's interesting to me because as long as i've been using drugs i have never even seen ketamine. i used to live in east nashville, very very close to him, and crack was rampant. dilaudid + oxycontin were attainable.. but i never saw ketamine. even when i was living in detroit i never saw it. heroin houses and all.
