This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out
But I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while
Even though going on with you still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you
Everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it
It's hard to force that smile
When I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder
Getting up getting dressed never want this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would treat every way all the words
That I say in my heart that I left unspoken
'Cause what hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Is what I was trying to do
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out
But I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while
Even though going on with you still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you
Everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it
It's hard to force that smile
When I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder
Getting up getting dressed never want this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would treat every way all the words
That I say in my heart that I left unspoken
'Cause what hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Is what I was trying to do

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.
