This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
They say this world is coming to an end
They say that Jesus is your only friend
They say that from your sin you must be saved
They say there ain't no ace in all the cards you played
You're at the end and in the seaman's log
There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog
There ain't no pretty maid that waits for me
There is no safe retreat as far as I can see
There are no friends amongst the ones I lived
There's only strangers with notorious urges to kill
If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will
We've paid a fortune for a first class seat in hell
I don't believe there is an end of what is ME
There's no beginning to my being as I see it
There's just this solitude and this now
But I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!!
They say this island is no place for me to hide
That grass is greener on some other distant side
They say the sky is crying for a lost and lonely soul
A simple thief crawls back into his dirty hole
You're at the end and in the seaman's log
There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog
A millions eyes out in the starless night
They've got some common ground, some call it hate
All sleep I get is with one eye open wide
The kings and priests they want my head upon a plate
If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will
We've paid a fortune for a first class seat in hell
I don't believe there is an end of what is ME
There's no beginning to my being as I see it
There's just my salty story and this now
And I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!!
They say that Jesus is your only friend
They say that from your sin you must be saved
They say there ain't no ace in all the cards you played
You're at the end and in the seaman's log
There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog
There ain't no pretty maid that waits for me
There is no safe retreat as far as I can see
There are no friends amongst the ones I lived
There's only strangers with notorious urges to kill
If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will
We've paid a fortune for a first class seat in hell
I don't believe there is an end of what is ME
There's no beginning to my being as I see it
There's just this solitude and this now
But I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!!
They say this island is no place for me to hide
That grass is greener on some other distant side
They say the sky is crying for a lost and lonely soul
A simple thief crawls back into his dirty hole
You're at the end and in the seaman's log
There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog
A millions eyes out in the starless night
They've got some common ground, some call it hate
All sleep I get is with one eye open wide
The kings and priests they want my head upon a plate
If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will
We've paid a fortune for a first class seat in hell
I don't believe there is an end of what is ME
There's no beginning to my being as I see it
There's just my salty story and this now
And I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!!

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline

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.
