This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Speed me towards death
Cause I just can't wait for her
I want her to come
I want to embrace her
I've decided it's life
That I don't like
That I don't like
Speed me towards death
Cause I think she'd go for me
They say time is the cure
I can't wait, he's too slow for me
I've tried all the rest
Now I want to try the best
And I'd die for some company
I'd die for some company
I don't want to die slowly
I don't want to decay
I want to be chosen
I want to be made
I don't want to die lonely
And weary of life
I will not be earthbound
I'm going to fly
So speed me towards death
You know I want her to taste me
My senses are dead
I want her to awaken me
I've realized that this world at its best
Is just a prelude to the next
And it's not what I want to hear
It's not what I want to read
I don't want to die slowly
I don't want to decay
I want to be chosen
I want to be made
I don't want to die lonely
And weary of life
I will not be earthbound
I'm gonna fly
For life is a game
Fit only for fools
It's a horse than can't win
In a race rigged to lose
So speed me towards death
Cause I just can't wait for her
I want her to come
I want to embrace her
I've decided it's life
That I don't like
That I don't like
Speed me towards death
Cause I think she'd go for me
They say time is the cure
I can't wait, he's too slow for me
I've tried all the rest
Now I want to try the best
And I'd die for some company
I'd die for some company
I don't want to die slowly
I don't want to decay
I want to be chosen
I want to be made
I don't want to die lonely
And weary of life
I will not be earthbound
I'm going to fly
So speed me towards death
You know I want her to taste me
My senses are dead
I want her to awaken me
I've realized that this world at its best
Is just a prelude to the next
And it's not what I want to hear
It's not what I want to read
I don't want to die slowly
I don't want to decay
I want to be chosen
I want to be made
I don't want to die lonely
And weary of life
I will not be earthbound
I'm gonna fly
For life is a game
Fit only for fools
It's a horse than can't win
In a race rigged to lose
So speed me towards death

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
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.
This song is one of the best songs he has ever did.
Has ever done.*
It (to me) means you've given up, and it doesnt matter anymore what the outcome is. In his case, he's given up on life. I thought this song would best fit in the scene from harry potter 7 near the end when he's walking in the forest (no more spoilers than that). I like how he embodies death and time and such with he and she to give the impression it's an actual relationship he has with those entities. All in all, 99/100. He misses the last point cause it could have been a little bit more faster and epic, at least in a remix. But im not gonna complain.
i just love it.
