This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's in the trees
It's coming
When I was a child
Running in the night
Afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark
Hiding in the street
And of what was following me
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Now hounds of love are hunting
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I've always been a coward
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
And I don't know what's good for me
Oh, here I go
It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me someone
Help me please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be
Two steps on the water
I found a fox
Caught by dogs
He let me take him in my hands
His little heart
It beats so fast
And I'm ashamed of running away
From nothing real
I just can't deal with this
I'm still afraid to be there
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Among your hounds of love
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
And feel your arms surround me
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I've always been a coward
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I never know what's good for me
Oh, here I go
Don't let me go
Hold me down
It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me darling
Help me please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be
Two steps on the water
Doo-doo-doo-doo
I don't know what's good for me
I don't know what's good for me
I need lo-lo-lo-lo-love, yeah
Your, yeah, your
Your love
Doo-doo
And take your shoes off
And throw them in the lake
Do you know what I really need?
Do you know what I really need?
I need lo-lo-lo-lo-love, yeah
It's coming
When I was a child
Running in the night
Afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark
Hiding in the street
And of what was following me
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Now hounds of love are hunting
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I've always been a coward
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
And I don't know what's good for me
Oh, here I go
It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me someone
Help me please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be
Two steps on the water
I found a fox
Caught by dogs
He let me take him in my hands
His little heart
It beats so fast
And I'm ashamed of running away
From nothing real
I just can't deal with this
I'm still afraid to be there
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Among your hounds of love
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
And feel your arms surround me
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I've always been a coward
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
I never know what's good for me
Oh, here I go
Don't let me go
Hold me down
It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me darling
Help me please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be
Two steps on the water
Doo-doo-doo-doo
I don't know what's good for me
I don't know what's good for me
I need lo-lo-lo-lo-love, yeah
Your, yeah, your
Your love
Doo-doo
And take your shoes off
And throw them in the lake
Do you know what I really need?
Do you know what I really need?
I need lo-lo-lo-lo-love, yeah

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This is not a Futureheads song, I agree. I have only heard the Futureheads cover and I think they do a fantastic job of it - but naturally they had great lyrics to build on. But still, it all makes sense - except for the lyric "take my shoes off and throw them in the lake and I will be two steps on the water" I mean, what the fuck does that mean? This song inspired me to research fox hunting and write a 60 page story on it.
The world of adult love is hurtling at her and she doesn't know how to deal. So she pleads for someone to take her shoes off and throw them in the lake, i.e. take her childish constraints and get rid of them, and she'll have the confidence to take a second step beyond the first step of interest. But this world she yearns for can be harsh and little foxes might get hurt. It has to do with praying for confidence and desiring the ease with which some seem to play this game of love.
