This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm growing so distant
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I'm learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Projecting all my anger
I can't seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Your side,
I won't see your side
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why its so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
I won't see your side.
Your side
Nothing makes sense to me anymore
I'm learning to resist
Becoming more than you ever were
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Projecting all my anger
I can't seem to get this through to you
The walls are closing in
I dare you to walk in my shoes
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Your side,
I won't see your side
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why its so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
Can't explain, what's come over me (come over me)
Can't explain, why it's so hard for me,
So hard to see your side.
I won't see your side.
Your side

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
No Surprises

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.
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
"It's about seemingly irresolvable differences. It's valid in just about any setting: politics, religion, relationships… Everything is 'only an opinion' based on limited information, yet people sometimes get attached to their point of views to the extreme…in fact, to the point they would launch wars over them." -- Zoltan Bathory
So, I agree that this song is f'n phenomenal. I've listened to it a bunch of times, and I'm convinced the opening line is "I'm growing so disturbed". I don't hear distant in there anywhere.<br /> <br /> Anyway, can't wait for the new CD.
It's official, it wasn't a fluke. 5FDP kick serious ass!!
this song is so amazing i can not wait for the new album, its gonna be way better than way of the fist
Guitarist Zoltan Bathory said of this brooding track in publicity materials: "It's about seemingly irresolvable differences. It's valid in just about any setting: politics, religion, relationships… Everything is 'only an opinion' based on limited information, yet people sometimes get attached to their point of views to the extreme… in fact, to the point they would launch wars over them."
Bathory explained to Metal Hammer why this was chosen as the first single: "This one was our original choice to open the album, and now of course it's the first single & video. It was maybe the seventh or eighth song that we recorded, and it was pretty obvious that it should be the first single. Y'know, radio is pretty conservative here in the States so I guess we could have led with one of the slower, more obviously cross-over tracks, but that's really a path we didn't want to go down, to launch our campaign with a slow song… Actually, it's something of a miracle that radio plays our music at all — I mean, 'The Bleeding', which had huge exposure here, isn't exactly a ballad, but it made a powerful statement both musically and lyrically, and I think 'Hard To See' is the same… a wolf in sheep's clothing!"
This song's kinda hard to explain for me, maybe thats cause the lines are few, and it keeps repeating the same stances. But I think it's about a relationship of some kind (love-friendship-politics) where one tries to be different than the other, and this choice is so clear that he cant even explain why their point of views are so different. So he says "i cant see your point of view, its so hard for me to accept it".
So, to me it's super easy. Ivan feels like no one understands him, or it may be the vice versa, and he may feel like everyone's point of view on things are total crap. In other words, he doesn't much agree with things.
badass song... all these people who say this new album won't be as hard need to hear the rest of the released songs and the album before making such ignorant comments
The new album is gonna be sick nasty.
FFDP has outdone themselves. Are the lyrics simplistic and sometimes cliched? Yes. Is that a bad thing? No.
Is the music, all of it, awesome?
Ohhhhh yeah.
not hard enough? to soft? listen to something else... 5fdp is here to stay bitches!
