This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Night-time walker, keep your distance
Stay away from us, stay where you are
History repeats her story
Awakened by the sounds of long before
I don't want to see you
I don't want to believe you're here
But it's too hard not to when your songs I hear
And all the sweet repeats that make her so beautiful
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed is now all upside down
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed is now all upside down
Upside down, upside down
Upside down, upside down
A shattered silence into spinning
The panic as you learn, there was nothing here worth living
Hidden from this, an end, middle, beginning
Imprisoned to watch a play where strangers stare, forgiving
I believe that you and I have slowly made it to our final goodbye
And when they ask, we'll stray to omit
Only truly knowing that this us was how we want it
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed, it's now all upside down
Go on, here in the sound I drowned, our nerves broke down
What you believed is now all upside down
She is sailing safely inside my head
We lay in comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, it'll be alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
While we lay in the comforts of our own bed
It will be alright, we'll be alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
We lay in the comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, it'll alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
While w lay in the comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, we'll be alright
Here, playing dead
Maybe it's my night to turn it upside down
And start things over
Maybe it's my night to turn it upside down
And start things over
Stay away from us, stay where you are
History repeats her story
Awakened by the sounds of long before
I don't want to see you
I don't want to believe you're here
But it's too hard not to when your songs I hear
And all the sweet repeats that make her so beautiful
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed is now all upside down
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed is now all upside down
Upside down, upside down
Upside down, upside down
A shattered silence into spinning
The panic as you learn, there was nothing here worth living
Hidden from this, an end, middle, beginning
Imprisoned to watch a play where strangers stare, forgiving
I believe that you and I have slowly made it to our final goodbye
And when they ask, we'll stray to omit
Only truly knowing that this us was how we want it
Maybe it's alright and the world's not quite
What you believed, it's now all upside down
Go on, here in the sound I drowned, our nerves broke down
What you believed is now all upside down
She is sailing safely inside my head
We lay in comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, it'll be alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
While we lay in the comforts of our own bed
It will be alright, we'll be alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
We lay in the comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, it'll alright
Here, playing dead
She's sailing safely inside my head
While w lay in the comforts of our own bed
It'll be alright, we'll be alright
Here, playing dead
Maybe it's my night to turn it upside down
And start things over
Maybe it's my night to turn it upside down
And start things over

No Surprises

Radiohead
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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
