This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I opened my eyes last night
And saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay
On the shore, staring up at the planes
That aren't there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old
And you were looking so cold
So like an introvert
I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began
To shiver violently before
You happened to look
And see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark
Underground
All the subways around
Create a great sound
To my motion fatigue
Farewell
With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves
In underwater caves
As if you actually were inside
A saltwater room
Time together isn't never quite enough
When you and I are alone
I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Only time, only time
When we're apart what ever are you thinking of
If this is what I call home why does it feel so alone
So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time
Can you believe that the crew has gone
And wouldn't let me sign on?
All my islands have sunk
In the deep, so I can hardly relax
Or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home, some nights
When we count all the ship lights
I guess I'll never know
Why sparrows love the snow
We'll turn off all of the lights
And set this ballroom aglow
(So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love? All the time)
Time together isn't never quite enough
When you and I are alone
I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home why does it feel so alone?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time
Time together is just never quite enough
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time
And saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay
On the shore, staring up at the planes
That aren't there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old
And you were looking so cold
So like an introvert
I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began
To shiver violently before
You happened to look
And see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark
Underground
All the subways around
Create a great sound
To my motion fatigue
Farewell
With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves
In underwater caves
As if you actually were inside
A saltwater room
Time together isn't never quite enough
When you and I are alone
I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Only time, only time
When we're apart what ever are you thinking of
If this is what I call home why does it feel so alone
So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time
Can you believe that the crew has gone
And wouldn't let me sign on?
All my islands have sunk
In the deep, so I can hardly relax
Or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home, some nights
When we count all the ship lights
I guess I'll never know
Why sparrows love the snow
We'll turn off all of the lights
And set this ballroom aglow
(So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love? All the time)
Time together isn't never quite enough
When you and I are alone
I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home why does it feel so alone?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time
Time together is just never quite enough
When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

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.
I was trying for so long to figure out the meaning of the lyrics. I end up with this (I think it makes sense and if not, then at least now this is what it means to me and I feel identified):
Imagine he is a lonely "seashell" in the sand. He was in a "low light" (literally in the night or in a bad moment... or both).
She is a girl "walking down by the bay, on the shore" literally or just passing by him for any reason or coincidence.
"staring up at the stars (that aren't there anymore)." Some stars don't exist but you can still see them at night (because light travels at a finite speed of 186,000 miles per second, it can take light a long time to reach earth from such vast distances away). Anyway, it can be a metaphor that she is not letting the past go, still reaching for something that isn't there anymore.
When she saw him he began to "shiver violently" (or started to being scared) because he is introvert and no one ever comes to him.
She starts to discover "the tunnels all around" him "running into the dark, underground." words that continues the metaphor, like he's that seashell. She looks forward deep inside him, all his thoughts, all his fears, all of him.
"All the subways create a great sound" She turns his wrong parts to better things. She helps him to be a better person. She let him see all the beauty he didn't know he had.
"To my motion fatigue: Farewell." he is amazed by the way she sees him and believes all her words.
"With your ear to a seashell you can hear the waves in underwater caves" He starts to enjoy all that things they're discovering together. He needs her.
"as if you actually were inside a saltwater room." She now's inside him, inside that "introvert seashell".
"Time together isn't never quite enough. When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home." Their relationship is very, very intimate. They know the deepest part of each other and they love it.
"What will it take to make or break this hint of love? Only time, only time." They know they already are in love, but any of them say something about it. Just enjoying their friendship so much, playing as lovers.
"Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn't let me sign on?" Sometimes he can't go to see her and it doesn't his fault. When that happens, he feels like all his "islands have sunk in the deep" because being with her is like being in an island, just both of them. "And I can hardly relax or even oversleep." That's literally.
"But I feel more with your hand in mine when we walk on the shore line." He will always feel better with her.
"I guess we'll never know why sparrows love the snow." I think is refering to this song: "The Bird and the Worm". They love summer.
"We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow." Inside their own world, they can do whatever they want.
"So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love? (Yeah all the time) all the time" They really want something more.
"Time together isn't never quite enough When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home" They love to pass time together.
"What will it take to make or break this hint of love? Only time, only time" Always playing as lovers even if they don't belong to anyone.
"When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?" She ask him. "If this is what I call home" he answers when he's away from her "why does it feel so alone?" and he misses her.
That's all. I love the person who made me feel like this.
