This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
And we’ll drive until the desert meets the dreadful summer sky,
And the earth itself is stroked with sun while waves of warm air rise,
To provide a disguise, for ahead whatever lies,
Begs our minds to run amiss, and our lips to spare a kiss.
This place where water freely flows,
And palm trees gently cool the breeze,
Our fool’s paradise is but a swarm of awfully terrible things,
But as the sand swells up and swallows us whole we sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes and see the truth.
And as we exit limbo, and our faces grow so long,
Bliss to blisters we ride silent, wondering where we had gone wrong,
Time and space, space and time, both begin a slow unwind,
As we approach a lively sound where a saloon is to be found.
This place where drunks serve drinks to guests,
And love to dance away their days,
A century’s worth of history and before our eyes,
It fades away,
But as the silhouette slides our souls shout out and sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes…
Aside from our own voices,
I heard the song of horses,
Whose hooves were beating close and closing in,
To take us back to…
This place where water freely flows,
And palm trees gently cool the breeze,
Our fool’s paradise is but a swarm of awfully terrible things,
But as the sand swells up and swallows us whole we sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes and see the truth.
And the earth itself is stroked with sun while waves of warm air rise,
To provide a disguise, for ahead whatever lies,
Begs our minds to run amiss, and our lips to spare a kiss.
This place where water freely flows,
And palm trees gently cool the breeze,
Our fool’s paradise is but a swarm of awfully terrible things,
But as the sand swells up and swallows us whole we sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes and see the truth.
And as we exit limbo, and our faces grow so long,
Bliss to blisters we ride silent, wondering where we had gone wrong,
Time and space, space and time, both begin a slow unwind,
As we approach a lively sound where a saloon is to be found.
This place where drunks serve drinks to guests,
And love to dance away their days,
A century’s worth of history and before our eyes,
It fades away,
But as the silhouette slides our souls shout out and sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes…
Aside from our own voices,
I heard the song of horses,
Whose hooves were beating close and closing in,
To take us back to…
This place where water freely flows,
And palm trees gently cool the breeze,
Our fool’s paradise is but a swarm of awfully terrible things,
But as the sand swells up and swallows us whole we sing,
Oh! You never, never know,
Until you pull the covers from your eyes and see the truth.

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”

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.

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.
