This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I could of sworn that I saw you knee bent on the bedside
Arms stretching like a kite
That time will eventually grow, I'm so sure of it
I've got a reason to long for songs
That tells why your legs and arms
Are actually able
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
Well, have you seen my baby girl?
She's lonely, yeah, oh, oh, oh
I've got to crucify myself if I am gonna believe you
I've got to promise that I'll finish all the things I said
I'd do to begin with too
I've got to make my bed if I am gonna lay with you
'Cause a disaster's a disaster
No matter what Christian language you drag it through
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
Well, have you seen my baby girl?
She's lonely, so lonely
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
I'm like a virgin losing a child
So lonely, so lonely
Swear I did what I could for your rights
You swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try nothing, try something, try anything
I swear I did what I could for your rights
And you swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try something, for nothing, for something
Something
I swear I did what I could for your rights
You swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try something, try nothing, try anything
Arms stretching like a kite
That time will eventually grow, I'm so sure of it
I've got a reason to long for songs
That tells why your legs and arms
Are actually able
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
Well, have you seen my baby girl?
She's lonely, yeah, oh, oh, oh
I've got to crucify myself if I am gonna believe you
I've got to promise that I'll finish all the things I said
I'd do to begin with too
I've got to make my bed if I am gonna lay with you
'Cause a disaster's a disaster
No matter what Christian language you drag it through
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
Well, have you seen my baby girl?
She's lonely, so lonely
'Cause I confide in wolves at night
I'm like a virgin losing a child
So lonely, so lonely
Swear I did what I could for your rights
You swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try nothing, try something, try anything
I swear I did what I could for your rights
And you swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try something, for nothing, for something
Something
I swear I did what I could for your rights
You swear you did what you could for my eyes
And I'll try something, try nothing, try anything

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Gentle Hour

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Punchline

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
