This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Now I,
I carved these thoughts into my walls
Covered in black praying they would transcend to you
And I've been to the place where lonely souls dwell
Bringing me closer
One step closer to hell
Look into the sunlight
Before a plunge into oblivion
I don't lack the strength to move on
And now I'll fight off the strain that tries to pull me back
I'm never going back
Never going back
Fight off temptation, I'm never going back
I'll take this breath and I'll say these words to you
Don't want to let this go
Nothing remains in this life I know
All my failures are my great escape away from you
The poisonous world
I erased my life for this false sense of security
And I've killed my love for you
Forget me please, forget me
Please don't tell me I've lost it all
Solution hanging off the edge
Don't let me slip and fall
I've walked this Earth where life is stale
Dragging me closer
Seconds closer to hell
Look into the sunlight
As I crawl back from regrets
I don't lack the strength to move on
And now I'll fight off the strain that tries to pull me back
I'm never going back
Never going back
Fight off temptation, I'm never going back
I'll take this breath and I'll say these words to you
Don't want to let this go
Nothing remains in this life I know
All my failures are my great escape away from you
The poisonous world
I erased my life for this false sense of security
And I've killed my love for you
Forget me please, forget me
I carved these thoughts into my walls
Covered in black praying they would transcend to you
And I've been to the place where lonely souls dwell
Bringing me closer
One step closer to hell
Look into the sunlight
Before a plunge into oblivion
I don't lack the strength to move on
And now I'll fight off the strain that tries to pull me back
I'm never going back
Never going back
Fight off temptation, I'm never going back
I'll take this breath and I'll say these words to you
Don't want to let this go
Nothing remains in this life I know
All my failures are my great escape away from you
The poisonous world
I erased my life for this false sense of security
And I've killed my love for you
Forget me please, forget me
Please don't tell me I've lost it all
Solution hanging off the edge
Don't let me slip and fall
I've walked this Earth where life is stale
Dragging me closer
Seconds closer to hell
Look into the sunlight
As I crawl back from regrets
I don't lack the strength to move on
And now I'll fight off the strain that tries to pull me back
I'm never going back
Never going back
Fight off temptation, I'm never going back
I'll take this breath and I'll say these words to you
Don't want to let this go
Nothing remains in this life I know
All my failures are my great escape away from you
The poisonous world
I erased my life for this false sense of security
And I've killed my love for you
Forget me please, forget me

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."

No Surprises

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.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
A few possibilities I feel for this song ... it could be about drugs, depression or a loved one IMO.
"The poisonous world" is the main thing that leads me to consider it could possibly be drugs. As the rest of the lyrics to me tend to float around them being a dark place previously (depression, taking drugs etc.) They are fighting to get out of this place but in essence the sense of reality is distorted (due to mental depression / illness / drug abuse) and now they are devote to their new reality (depression / drug).
The flip side is that it is about a loved one ... love can cause some distorted views of the world, and you are devoted to their love (and it can be poisonous afterwards if the separation isn't pretty).
