This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Smother his life, the words cut right to the heart
Disease and threaten my family name
An epic stand is made, condemned
I will not plead, I will not plead
Damned to the beast of torment
Damned by the beast within us all
Crushed by the fear
More stone, more stone
More weight for Corey
Not one step forth could capture a mission of guilt
By law, avoids death on gallows hill
Through time, his fight will martyr my name
My soul free of a heretic
Crushed by the fear
More stone, more stone
More weight for Corey
Court of ayer and terminer
Leave me my rightful land
Court of ayer and terminer
Leave me my rightful land
To stow in my heart, leave to my sons
Peine forte et dure is called
An effort to collapse belief has failed
And surely will die with me
An epic stand is made, condemned
I will not plead, I will not plead
Damned to the beast of torment
Damned by the beast within us all
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Disease and threaten my family name
An epic stand is made, condemned
I will not plead, I will not plead
Damned to the beast of torment
Damned by the beast within us all
Crushed by the fear
More stone, more stone
More weight for Corey
Not one step forth could capture a mission of guilt
By law, avoids death on gallows hill
Through time, his fight will martyr my name
My soul free of a heretic
Crushed by the fear
More stone, more stone
More weight for Corey
Court of ayer and terminer
Leave me my rightful land
Court of ayer and terminer
Leave me my rightful land
To stow in my heart, leave to my sons
Peine forte et dure is called
An effort to collapse belief has failed
And surely will die with me
An epic stand is made, condemned
I will not plead, I will not plead
Damned to the beast of torment
Damned by the beast within us all
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name
Rectify my name

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
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
In my English class we were reading the Crucible and someone mentioned there was a song about Giles Corey, so I looked it up and it's definitely refering to him.
"Smother his life The words cut right to the heart Disease and threaten my family name An epic stand is made Condemned I will not plead Damned to the beast of torment Damned by the beast within us all"
This verse says how Giles was accused, but he refused to say if he was guilty or not- an epic stand is made- he stood up to them and even though he was condemned he did not give in. -Damned by the beast within us all- I take this as he was cursed because of the others wanting to be saved, so they accused him, and this want to save ourselves and curse others is the beast within us.
Crushed by the the fear More stone, more stone, more weight for Corey
When asked to plead, Corey just asked for more weight.
Not one set forth could capture admission of guilt By law, avoids death on Gallows Hill Through time this fight will martyr my name My soul free of a heretic
He didn't admit so he couldn't go to jail, and even if he had he would have been hanged so he did neither.
Court of Ayer and Terminer leave me my rightful land Men of Ayer and Terminer leave me my rightful land To stow in my heart, leave to my sons
Because of his choice and cause of death, the court could not take his land away as if he had pleaded one way or the other, so his land stayed in his family.
