This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Your knees are bruised up.
You don't even know what you're worshiping.
Outside the sun rises in the silence of another suicide scene.
There's nothing sacred here, no,
Nothing's left clean.
Say it! Say it!
I know what you're thinking now,
You're blowing your smoke in my face,
You just need a little taste of it.
Say it! Say it!
It's all in the script in L.A.
I don't even know your name,
But you want everything
Somebody's kissing me like it means everything
And somewhere someone's shaking my hand in the back seat of a limousine.
Now who can I trust?
These new friends are so dangerous.
Say it! Say it!
I know what you're thinking now,
You're blowing your smoke in my face,
You just need a little taste of it.
Say it! Say it!
It's all in the script in L.A.
I don't even know your name,
But you want everything
They don't love you,
Never give your heart away.
They don't love you;
They'll just take your heart away
Name your price,
Sign it away on the dotted line
And I'll make you famous.
You don't even know what you're worshiping.
Outside the sun rises in the silence of another suicide scene.
There's nothing sacred here, no,
Nothing's left clean.
Say it! Say it!
I know what you're thinking now,
You're blowing your smoke in my face,
You just need a little taste of it.
Say it! Say it!
It's all in the script in L.A.
I don't even know your name,
But you want everything
Somebody's kissing me like it means everything
And somewhere someone's shaking my hand in the back seat of a limousine.
Now who can I trust?
These new friends are so dangerous.
Say it! Say it!
I know what you're thinking now,
You're blowing your smoke in my face,
You just need a little taste of it.
Say it! Say it!
It's all in the script in L.A.
I don't even know your name,
But you want everything
They don't love you,
Never give your heart away.
They don't love you;
They'll just take your heart away
Name your price,
Sign it away on the dotted line
And I'll make you famous.

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 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.
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.
A typical story about a girl, running away from home to L.A, hoping for some luck in the big city, but everything goes to hell, so the only way to earn money is becoming a hooker.
The dotted line is a line where you put your signature on a contract for example, but I guess everyone knows that.
I feel Blakkie KIND OF has it right, but I believe that it's about getting signed as a musician. You sit down with a record exec who really doesn't care about your feelings, and there's so many fake friends... Women everywhere acting as if they're in love, and it's just all a fake, crazy adventure.
"They don't love you, never give your heart away... They don't love, they'll just take your heart away" is my favorite line of this song because it's how you are really just used by so many people, and in the end you wont care that they're doing it anymore.
