This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Birds in the air, will I keep on hoping for myself
For many years I've been held inside this wishing well
I can't see anymore, I've tried to reason my life
I can't feel anymore, I find it hard to survive
And God will I see the day I will be free, I will be free
If somebody hears
Then I'm proud I've been a lucky one
But sometimes I fear it's been a waste
And the worst is yet to come
I can't give anymore everything's been taken away
And the ones I adore keep getting farther each day
God let me believe the day I will be free, I will be free
Can you see me at all, do you care to understand?
Can you hear me at all, will you turn your eyes again?
God let me believe the day I will be free, I will be free
For many years I've been held inside this wishing well
I can't see anymore, I've tried to reason my life
I can't feel anymore, I find it hard to survive
And God will I see the day I will be free, I will be free
If somebody hears
Then I'm proud I've been a lucky one
But sometimes I fear it's been a waste
And the worst is yet to come
I can't give anymore everything's been taken away
And the ones I adore keep getting farther each day
God let me believe the day I will be free, I will be free
Can you see me at all, do you care to understand?
Can you hear me at all, will you turn your eyes again?
God let me believe the day I will be free, I will be free

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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.
