| Blind Melon – No Rain Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| My absolute favorite song. It's about depression, most definately. Finding beauty in simple things (watching puddles gather rain), dreaming of love (pour some tea for two; i just want someone to say to me, I'll always be there when you wake, ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, so stay with me and I'll have it made ), staying true to yourself (speak my point of view but it's not sane), and overall hoping that someone will come along and love you for who you are. | |
| Tonic – You Wanted More Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Maybe he's saying love is a simple thing. People try to hard to define love and compare it to lust and all things associated with that. He just wanted to love a girl and she wanted something complicated? | |
| Tonic – Sugar Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Such a beautiful love song...wouldn't be so amazing if someone told you this song made them think of you? For me it's all about loving someone so much you can just chill under the moon and be elated just because you're with them. You just whisk them away and show them what it's about. | |
| Stroke 9 – Tail Of The Sun Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| One of my favorite songs...makes me so sad everytime I hear it. The whole anticipation for summer, and then when it gets here it's gone. And you look back and think, where did it go? | |
| Five for Fighting – Alright Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Hmm...I'm thinking maybe this guy loved a girl who never loved him back. And he's pretending to not care because of his pride, but really he's dying inside. He's saying he's alright, but it's in a very sarcastic tone. | |
| Five for Fighting – America Town Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| I'm not sure whether this is supposed to be about corprate america, or just a small boring town. It would make sense either way... | |
| Five for Fighting – Bloody Mary (A Note on Apathy) Lyrics | 22 years ago |
|
I think this song is about a vampire. "Back against the beast I went " beast = vampire "Here comes the sun again…(to see me through)" she had to leave or she'd die from the sun. "On and on she takes me from you, my love" slowly draining him from life "Happily I leave her fed" she fed on his blood Makes sense to me.... |

| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Sir Psycho Sexy Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| This is a song about Anthony, Sir Psycho Sexy himself. About his love for women, and sex. I love the way Ant talks about himself in this song....very cocky (no pun intended ;) ) | |
| Red Hot Chili Peppers – If You Have to Ask Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Great song, I'm kind of confused on the meaning though. Perhaps yet another stream-of-conciousness song as so many songs on BSSM are? | |
| Red Hot Chili Peppers – I Like Dirt Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Yeah, I've heard the anal reference also. Cool song, though. | |
| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Blood Sugar Sex Magik Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| Obviously, a song about sex. Sounds to me like Anthony is really in love with her, she's very beautiful, and she's got sex magik! | |

| Matchbox Twenty – 3 A.M. Lyrics | 22 years ago |
| This song has always freaked me out a little. It's a very good song, but very creepy lyrics. Now that I know what it's about it makes a LOT more sense! | |
