This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
when the sun is almost overhead
we'll know its greatest fear
is that twilight’s inevitable and the
dark it draws more near
metaphors are scarier than the truth
all the things they know
the fact that wind and rain shall always be
more than they’ll show
more than they’ll show
more than they’ll show
and I only wish that on the day I day
they’ll be that many people by my side
who will say such amazing things
about who I was and how I lived
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
just like Glen did
well the sun is almost overhead
what have I done
to warrant love and respect
from anyone?
wind and rain shall come and go as they please
they’ll never know
the only thing I’m more scared of than the sun
is getting old
is getting old
is getting old
we'll know its greatest fear
is that twilight’s inevitable and the
dark it draws more near
metaphors are scarier than the truth
all the things they know
the fact that wind and rain shall always be
more than they’ll show
more than they’ll show
more than they’ll show
and I only wish that on the day I day
they’ll be that many people by my side
who will say such amazing things
about who I was and how I lived
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
and I pledge to you that I will live my life
so that the preacher doesn’t have to lie
just like Glen did
well the sun is almost overhead
what have I done
to warrant love and respect
from anyone?
wind and rain shall come and go as they please
they’ll never know
the only thing I’m more scared of than the sun
is getting old
is getting old
is getting old

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
