This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's like a trampoline,
we'll fly, we'll fall and we'll dream
that we'll make it to the stars in the sky above.
It's what life is like.
Oh, it's what it's like.
We grow so fast, we make everything last,
because we rely on our makers to mold us,
and draw out our maps. It's what it's like.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.
So let it go, let the pages turn on their own.
Let the author of your life do some writing.
Oh, it's what it's like. It's time to leave
the people who have taught us all and
taught us what to believe in.
We've got to make a choice and take a stand,
and find out where and what we'll call home.
This is is what it's like.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.
So let it go, let the pages turn on their own.
Let the author of your life do some writing.
I promise you we'll make it out alive.
I promise you we'll see it when you lie.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.
we'll fly, we'll fall and we'll dream
that we'll make it to the stars in the sky above.
It's what life is like.
Oh, it's what it's like.
We grow so fast, we make everything last,
because we rely on our makers to mold us,
and draw out our maps. It's what it's like.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.
So let it go, let the pages turn on their own.
Let the author of your life do some writing.
Oh, it's what it's like. It's time to leave
the people who have taught us all and
taught us what to believe in.
We've got to make a choice and take a stand,
and find out where and what we'll call home.
This is is what it's like.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.
So let it go, let the pages turn on their own.
Let the author of your life do some writing.
I promise you we'll make it out alive.
I promise you we'll see it when you lie.
We fly, we soar through the story of our lives.
And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This song is about letting go and letting God direct us in life: "So let it go, let the pages turn on their own. Let the author of your life do some writing."
And it points out how Satan can distract us from that: "And we're caught up in a thousand spider webs and lies."
Great song, and a great band.
yeap, i agree that this song is about letting go, and generally moving on , but why this has to do with god? why god? because this band is rumored to be christian? because they will play in cornerstone festival? i mean... com on!
''Let the author of your life do some writing''
why the ''author'' has to be god? why can't the ''author'' be referred just for ourselves?
and well said: Great song, and great band :)
This band is Christian. If you get a chance to see them live, definitely do it. Well worth it. The singer preaches a little bit about God, but they're so incredibly talented.
