This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You know you're not a strong man
And you're just about to cry
Hang on, hang on
It's alright, it's alright
You worry about the future
The sign said, "yoga class for cats"
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
And the dynamite is waiting
'Cause they bankrupted the sky
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
Break your mother's back
If you step on the cracks
And everybody knows
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there
The carnival closed down
And you're just about to cry
Hang on, hang on
It's alright, it's alright
You worry about the future
The sign said, "yoga class for cats"
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
And the dynamite is waiting
'Cause they bankrupted the sky
It's okay, it's okay
It's no fun
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
Break your mother's back
If you step on the cracks
And everybody knows
You're frustrated by the cracks
In the pavement
And every mother's back
Once again
The carnival closed down
But if this world would ever turn around
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there when everyone is sane
You'll be there
The carnival closed down

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

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/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
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 think this song is about the everyday problems in life driving you insane. The stressors in life are as numerous as cracks in the pavement and you can go mad trying to avoid them. I have no idea what the hell "yoga class for cats" means, though.
