This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Why don't we both surrender?
Before we both get burned
So many shots fired
So many daggers thrown
Can you think of anything
We have heard from all this menace?
Have we learned from all this time?
Have we learned from all this business
With the gun and the knife?
I throw up my hands for you
And if you throw up your hands for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
I throw up my hands, my hands for you
And if you throw up your hands for me
What a wonderful world this could be, be, be...
I remember things you whispered
The things you screamed
Then it all go up in flames
So many bombs drop
So many names called
Can't you see we've been living
In the world of pain from all this menace?
Can we end it all before?
This world is blown all to pieces
In a tug of war
I fall to my knees for you
And if you fall to your knees for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
I fall to my knees, my knees for you
And if you fall to your knees for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
Oh let's both make a mutual surrender
Oh let's both make a mutual surrender
Why don't we both surrender?
Here before we both get burned
With all the shots fired
And all the daggers thrown
There's got to be something
We can learn from all this menace
Can we learn from all this time?
Can we learn from all this business
With the gun and the knife
I raise my white flag for you
And if you raise your white flag for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
I raise my white flag, my flag for you
And if you raise your white flag for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
I fall to my knees, my knees for you
And if you fall to your knees for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
I throw up my hands, my hands for you
And if your throw up your hands for me
What a wonderful world this could be, yeah
(FADE:)
I raise my white flag, my flag for you

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
