This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'd like to say
I make good use of my time while you've been away
And it's true, I've been at my piano everyday
Thinking of you
(ahhhh)
They talk around
I hear them whisper
It's the funniest thing
They think you're gone forever
I know the truth it's just
Getting hard to believe it
And they all tell me it's over
Even the stars are alligned
And I
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
I'm not the same
I can't sleep nights
And now I'm calling your name when I do
And yet without you they say I
Get on better, and better, and better
When they all tell me it's over
I'll damn the gods until the stars are alligned
And I
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
(ahhhh, ohhh)
Well look at my life and look at my face
Can't you see my heart bleeding down my sleeve
So you're holding my hand and holding my heart
But I just want to feel a breath inside me so I can breathe
Somewhere in the distance I get to spark a grace
And hold onto to something that makes me feel like I'm alive
It's never too soon, it's never too late so I start screaming out
I see your face I see your hand reaching out and I yell at you and I say
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I know you can feel me rising
And I'm on fire
Keep on pulling me out
(Ahhhh)
Look at my life and look at my face
And look where I've come to get to this place with you
Being here to sit and lay at your feet and rest in your arms
And listen to your heart beat
(Ohhhhh, Ohhhhh, Ohhhhh)
I make good use of my time while you've been away
And it's true, I've been at my piano everyday
Thinking of you
(ahhhh)
They talk around
I hear them whisper
It's the funniest thing
They think you're gone forever
I know the truth it's just
Getting hard to believe it
And they all tell me it's over
Even the stars are alligned
And I
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
I'm not the same
I can't sleep nights
And now I'm calling your name when I do
And yet without you they say I
Get on better, and better, and better
When they all tell me it's over
I'll damn the gods until the stars are alligned
And I
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
(ahhhh, ohhh)
Well look at my life and look at my face
Can't you see my heart bleeding down my sleeve
So you're holding my hand and holding my heart
But I just want to feel a breath inside me so I can breathe
Somewhere in the distance I get to spark a grace
And hold onto to something that makes me feel like I'm alive
It's never too soon, it's never too late so I start screaming out

Quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still they catch me
The quicksands pulling me down
I follow the sign so clearly
And still I fall in
Quicksands pulling me down
I know you can feel me rising
And I'm on fire
Keep on pulling me out
(Ahhhh)
Look at my life and look at my face
And look where I've come to get to this place with you
Being here to sit and lay at your feet and rest in your arms
And listen to your heart beat
(Ohhhhh, Ohhhhh, Ohhhhh)

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.
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.
