This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's a feelin' you ain't had since your school days
One that blows off dusty memories
And the one voice of the faded and forgotten
Is screamin' like an eagle through the trees
It sings to you a song that you remember
It whispers like the softly fallen snow
On a Pennsylvania farm in late December
Is there somewhere like that left where we could go?
We could go and start again
We could go and start again
Shine some light on the shadows of our sins
We could go and start again
When the devil tries to drag you through the darkness
And the self-hate rakes you through the burning coals
Take my hand and we will stand together
We'll ride another cycle of our souls.
Of our souls, on our way
Of our souls, on our way
Trade tomorrow for another yesterday
Of our souls, on our way
The day that peace will come won't be mistaken
It'll sing a song that everyone will know
And the holy train that leaves this worldly station
Will take us anywhere we wanna go
We could go and start again
We could go and start again
Shine some light on the shadows of our sins
We could go and start again
One that blows off dusty memories
And the one voice of the faded and forgotten
Is screamin' like an eagle through the trees
It sings to you a song that you remember
It whispers like the softly fallen snow
On a Pennsylvania farm in late December
Is there somewhere like that left where we could go?
We could go and start again
We could go and start again
Shine some light on the shadows of our sins
We could go and start again
When the devil tries to drag you through the darkness
And the self-hate rakes you through the burning coals
Take my hand and we will stand together
We'll ride another cycle of our souls.
Of our souls, on our way
Of our souls, on our way
Trade tomorrow for another yesterday
Of our souls, on our way
The day that peace will come won't be mistaken
It'll sing a song that everyone will know
And the holy train that leaves this worldly station
Will take us anywhere we wanna go
We could go and start again
We could go and start again
Shine some light on the shadows of our sins
We could go and start again

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”

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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
