This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm not so sure about it
Not so sure I can surmount it
Without losing my head
How about just losing my edge?
It seems easier said than done
But I think I'm done
Uncross my arms
To disarm the car bomb
It's taking too long
Something must be wrong
I had my doubts about it
When I heard your henchman shouting
"We've come looking for you"
Wished I'd hid under my bed
With my hands over my head
Uncross my arms
To disarm the car bomb
It's taking too long
Something must be wrong
I cut the wire like you said
I cut the blue one like you did
I did almost everything you said
So how come I'm dead?
Uncrossed my arms
Disarmed the car bomb
And what did I get?
A gun to my head
Uncrossed my arms
Disarmed the car bomb
And what did I get?
A gun to my head
Not so sure I can surmount it
Without losing my head
How about just losing my edge?
It seems easier said than done
But I think I'm done
Uncross my arms
To disarm the car bomb
It's taking too long
Something must be wrong
I had my doubts about it
When I heard your henchman shouting
"We've come looking for you"
Wished I'd hid under my bed
With my hands over my head
Uncross my arms
To disarm the car bomb
It's taking too long
Something must be wrong
I cut the wire like you said
I cut the blue one like you did
I did almost everything you said
So how come I'm dead?
Uncrossed my arms
Disarmed the car bomb
And what did I get?
A gun to my head
Uncrossed my arms
Disarmed the car bomb
And what did I get?
A gun to my head

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."

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.
I like how you call the first poster shallow and then don't offer your own explanation to what the song means.
In my opinion the song is about the band Islands from the last record. Someone has told Nick (maybe the record label) that part of the reason the last record wasn't successful was because of the band members. "Uncross my Arms" is a reference to the last record 'Arm's Way' and uncrossing 'Arm's Way' is trying something new for the next album. Cutting the wires represents cutting every band member from Arm's Way under instruction of the record label or whatever voice is guiding Nick. He references how easy it was to do this, though he now regrets it.
