This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Here we lay face to face once again
Silence cuts like a knife as we pretend
And I'm wondering who will be the first to say what we both know
We're just holding on to "could have been"s and we should be letting go
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
And we both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
It feels like you're a million miles away, away
Was it me, or was it you that broke away?
For what we were is like the season's love is change
And every time I think about it, it tears me up inside
Like the rivers of emotion but I got no more tears to cry
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
And I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
And we both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
Feels like you're a million miles away, away
We can try to talk it over but we walked that road before
While our song is playing its last note
We both know for sure that it's time to close that door
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
And I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
We both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
It feels like you're a million miles away
A million miles away
Silence cuts like a knife as we pretend
And I'm wondering who will be the first to say what we both know
We're just holding on to "could have been"s and we should be letting go
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
And we both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
It feels like you're a million miles away, away
Was it me, or was it you that broke away?
For what we were is like the season's love is change
And every time I think about it, it tears me up inside
Like the rivers of emotion but I got no more tears to cry
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
And I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
And we both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
Feels like you're a million miles away, away
We can try to talk it over but we walked that road before
While our song is playing its last note
We both know for sure that it's time to close that door
It feels like you're a million miles away as you're lying here with me tonight
And I can't even find the words to say I can find a way to make it right
We both know that the story's ending
We play the part but we're just pretending and I can't hide the tears
'Cause even though you're here
It feels like you're a million miles away
A million miles away

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”
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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.
Page

Ed Sheeran
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.
omgsh, this is my favorite r&b song ever, i'm more into rock music so it's pretty weird for me to like a song like this sooooo much @_@, i think it's about having a relationship with someone, and it's coming to an end for whatever reason (fights, cheating, ect.) and you still love him but you have to let go. spending your last moments together, and just being broken up over it. ~bridgette♥
