This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Their mouths move but I can't hear them
Their voices sound like televisions when they're tuned to snow
And I'm wondering just what they know
They can't sleep, they have no eye lids
Their bodies hum just like our heaters in the microwaves
But their heads turn, and they'll be watching you
And this is not a joke my boy
They're not something we understand
They don't think or live the way we do
Their finger's bend, but it's not because they tell them to
They don't breathe or drink anything
They say they don't need things that we still need
And now I'm wondering just what that means
They don't sleep, they have no eyelids
I hear them moving near my window when I'm down for bed
I think they're after what's inside my head
I can't think, the wheels keep spinning
There's more of this than I can see, I'm not sure what they need
But my hands are tied, there's nothing much that I can do
And this is not a joke my boy
They're not like us, parts are missing
There's no hearts or blood inside their chest
They don't feel, or laugh, no shame, or regret
Don't know just what it means
To lose some things that you cannot get back
And now I'm terrified of what they lack
Oh, they'll come for our heads
They'll come for our heads
Oh, they'll come for our heads
They'll come for...
I heard a knock on the door
But there was no answer
I peaked through the crack
And the hand pulled me through
They dragged me outside then
And you tried to stop them
But there were too many
You did what you could
Their voices sound like televisions when they're tuned to snow
And I'm wondering just what they know
They can't sleep, they have no eye lids
Their bodies hum just like our heaters in the microwaves
But their heads turn, and they'll be watching you
And this is not a joke my boy
They're not something we understand
They don't think or live the way we do
Their finger's bend, but it's not because they tell them to
They don't breathe or drink anything
They say they don't need things that we still need
And now I'm wondering just what that means
They don't sleep, they have no eyelids
I hear them moving near my window when I'm down for bed
I think they're after what's inside my head
I can't think, the wheels keep spinning
There's more of this than I can see, I'm not sure what they need
But my hands are tied, there's nothing much that I can do
And this is not a joke my boy
They're not like us, parts are missing
There's no hearts or blood inside their chest
They don't feel, or laugh, no shame, or regret
Don't know just what it means
To lose some things that you cannot get back
And now I'm terrified of what they lack
Oh, they'll come for our heads
They'll come for our heads
Oh, they'll come for our heads
They'll come for...
I heard a knock on the door
But there was no answer
I peaked through the crack
And the hand pulled me through
They dragged me outside then
And you tried to stop them
But there were too many
You did what you could

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

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.
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.
he's speaking in place for someone hysterically talking about robots through the first 2 paragraphs, in my head, its an old grandpa with severe emotional problems who gets a hold of his grandson and warns him of the evils of robots. this is just my point of view. but for the rest of the song he tells of his experiences with these terrible robots, moving outside his window at night, his hands are tied so he cant do anything about it(mental asylum?). the end of the song he is dragged outside with someone witnessing and a band of robots attacked him. FEAR OF ROBOTS?!?
