This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Nitrogen pink and a whole load of Wednesdays
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen pink, please
Throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to
Stamp on a fly
And the boys had they're pearls
And the girls had to backs
And everybody was laughing at you
Singing isn't it, isn't it, isn't it
Such a funny old world the way tragedy strikes
Nitrogen pink and a whole load of Wednesdays
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen Pink please throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to stamp on a fly
And the blind man was seeing clouds all grey
Until the weather man blew his rain away
And nobody, nobody, nobody make a sound
Nitrogen pink and a pill for my breakfast
And a bag full of ketchup that he spilt on his tie
Nitrogen pink for the unwritten bible
About this mad mad days survival
Till he kicked it up in the flames
And all the education daddy, it never paid
Because the fat man took my innocence away
And I though and I thought and I thought
You said all the streets were paved with gold
Nitrogen pink for the real captain red beard
For the unlikely pianist, the sad and the gay
Nitrogen pink for the man in the corner
For the pig in the slaughter house
The sweet melody
Played slot machines got so rich then we lost it
Found a hole in my pocket
Crack a smile and we're okay
That long drive home
Nothing much ever after
Nothing hurts me more than laughter
Man I wish you could be here
Nitrogen pink and a whole load of Wednesdays
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen pink, please
Throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to
Wave you good bye
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen pink, please
Throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to
Stamp on a fly
And the boys had they're pearls
And the girls had to backs
And everybody was laughing at you
Singing isn't it, isn't it, isn't it
Such a funny old world the way tragedy strikes
Nitrogen pink and a whole load of Wednesdays
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen Pink please throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to stamp on a fly
And the blind man was seeing clouds all grey
Until the weather man blew his rain away
And nobody, nobody, nobody make a sound
Nitrogen pink and a pill for my breakfast
And a bag full of ketchup that he spilt on his tie
Nitrogen pink for the unwritten bible
About this mad mad days survival
Till he kicked it up in the flames
And all the education daddy, it never paid
Because the fat man took my innocence away
And I though and I thought and I thought
You said all the streets were paved with gold
Nitrogen pink for the real captain red beard
For the unlikely pianist, the sad and the gay
Nitrogen pink for the man in the corner
For the pig in the slaughter house
The sweet melody
Played slot machines got so rich then we lost it
Found a hole in my pocket
Crack a smile and we're okay
That long drive home
Nothing much ever after
Nothing hurts me more than laughter
Man I wish you could be here
Nitrogen pink and a whole load of Wednesdays
They're these sweet rotting memories
That keep you alive
Nitrogen pink, please
Throw me a moment just to
Get my composure and to
Wave you good bye

so, anyone have any suggestions as to what "nitrogen pink" actually is?
My best guess? Code for someone she knew with the initials "N.P." Just the first thing that came to mind, though.<br /> <br /> On the whole, this song's pretty cryptic. One thing I can say for sure, though, is that it is overwhelmingly sad.
songfacts.com/detail.php<br /> <br /> remember reading this, why i started listening. will get more details.<br /> <br /> a song tho. really.
ok forst hit i s'pose.<br /> guardian.co.uk/music/2008/sep/16/popandrock1<br />
Hauntingly beautiful... It seems like a pensive homage to a past relationship/person.

nitrogen pink, please, throw me a moment just to get my composure and to wave you goodbye
I heard this song shorty after I experienced a death so I really related to this. Alot of lines in here remind me of what you think after you experience someone in your life close to you dieing for instance:
"they're these sweet rotting memories that keep you alive"
"throw me a moment just to get my composure and to stamp on a fly"
"and everybody was laughing at you singing 'isn't it, isn't it, isn't it such a funny old world the way tragedy strikes?'" I think this part is about how after someone passes away it the people that didnt know that person go back to they're lives like everything's normal while your still affected.
"that long drive home nothing much ever after nothing hurts more than laughter man, i wish you could be here" This is one of the strongest indications for me of what this song is about..- I can't even begin to explain why these particular lines are relevant.
The way this song is layed out also is a big big pointer..It starts out slow and then it gets fast and beautifully overwhelming..(of course in real life you subtract the beautiful part)
But yeah thats what I think..
It's said that Polly wrote this song about a friend of her friend who was dying of cancer. I think the nitrogen has something to do with how they use different forms of nitrogen in chemotherapy, though I have no clue if the nitrogen mustards are pink or what the color has to do with it.
