Scars On Broadway – Cute Machines Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
this song is stupid..by stupid i mean simple. Its genius because i use the term cute machine like 500 times a day...they go go go go go go go go go go go go go go. cute machines. Technology is so impressive, say most people. Cute machines belittle that expression. I like belittling stuff. |

The Mars Volta – Tetragrammaton Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
i think tetragrammation is a shape with 10 sides representing each major religion. and their interpretations. i think in the song when they snuffed the demon. he never appeared.instead the demon changed forms into a big statue thing. like on the cover of the liner notes. but anyway. my main point is the tetragrammation. which decribes the formation of diatribes of 10 different religions. a shape has many sides. and any story has many sides. |

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – Sunken Dreams Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
this song is like wanting someone as a lover for the wrong reasons....out of fear and vane...but..those same emotions lead you to build bridges at the same time. they dont sustain those bridges. they drive people away. i dont know why his mind is speaking german....maybe he's struggling to understand himself |

Muse – Stockholm Syndrome Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
to me this just explains that stockholm is a very very loosely defined concept. people can find themselves in a situation where the one they love is holding them hostage. sort of a damned if you do damned if you dont situation. for example.....
you kick your child out onto the streets because they break the rules that you set in your household....but then you worry about them getting kidnapped and what not cuz suddenly your child is not home at curfew time. very intense and personally attaching song for me. |

At the Drive-In – Metronome Arthritis Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
this song is definetly about trying to cover up a crime through arson.....and then being paranoid over the smallest thing that could provide the police a lead onto you. (where did i leave my book of matches). alot of the song seems to describe just that...."keep running in place"......trying to not look suspicious
"set the temperature on delete"
lastly "you cut your fingernails way too short"
that seems to emply nervousness like biting on your fingernails. |

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Charlie Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
i've never heard cocaine referred to as charlie...but i really wouldnt know...not one bit....if u ask me there are too many slang words for drugs really.
if i were you i would believe what anthony says the song is about. after all...he wrote it didnt he? and besides....if u see the performance of the little boy who played charlie in willie wonka and the chocolate factory...very very exuberant...possibly some sort of tie in there.
lastly...why should an artist share his inspiration if people only misinterpret it anyway...let them misinterpret it without pre conceptions |

Sparta – From Now To Never Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
i think its about being prepared for the opportune moment and not letting complacency seap in.
thats the impression the "occupied station" thing gave me....
i dont know why anyone would blah blah blah or short change this song...its so great...so dynamic and lastly so mellow
its as if he's trying to convey a sense of urgency and then lull you out of it to simply prove a point. |

Incubus – Anna Molly Lyrics

his singing of the word anomoly or annamolly seems driven by fear....maybe he's lonely despite being tied to someone. and fearful that he would wanna leave her if this anomolous girl came along. that would be pretty shitty |

Ours – Fallen Souls Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
ooh i didnt know this band was with dreamworks...no wonder they havent reemerged..its no surprise i tend to like artists of that label for some reason
anyway, this song seems like simply a man trying to get over hisself and his views of a world teetering over the brink...and it seems sentimental to the point where just maybe praying more often could have changed it all...for himself..and the world
just my perspective having just listened to the album... |

i guess the easiest way to break down the spelling is spell it how it sounds and there are no ll's .....not that tough...unless there are ll's.....i think song follows the adage...its better to say nothing and be thought a fool than say something and remove all doubt |

Cake – Short Skirt/Long Jacket Lyrics

i just get the impression that mccrea wants a renaissance woman......one who takes home as much cake as he does....pardon the pun...but anyway...he's not satisfied with the trophy wife....even though he probably could as any man could be....he wants a girl that challenges him....when i hear the line touring the facilities and picking up slack....it makes me think of her being a CEO visiting her employees at their cubicle......either that or he wants a girl to take care of him...a sugar momma lol |

very good closing track on a great sparta cd.....
i dont know anything about the meaning but it seems to be clouded in double entendre perhaps it just has some permeating universal meaning...

great clip here...i see people mentioning its an intro to drunkship which it is cuz its the preceding song....i've always seen it as more of an intro for eriatarka though....the biggest hint being the leaky faucet ambience through this song....and the general mood of eriatarka... |

The Mars Volta – Viscera Eyes Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
i think cedric is deaking us out on this song and the most obvious explanation is actually the real explanation..organized religion...it seems that cedric and omar are freelance believers and i think thats righteous and following one religion is just a winding road of empty promises but thats just me. i take the title of the song for instance....viscera..short of visceral..(also sounds better with eyes) is basically describing your impulses...more of a gut reaction that a conceived notion....and the eye is at the center of everything...like a hurricane in this instance...the human spirit the core of the human being...basically saying believing in a divine impulse zone is wrong...it gives you cataracts.....,well figurative ones anyway, over your real eyes and lastly use your head.....sure once you get up there its all very very complicated but dont just take the easy route.. |

The Mars Volta – Viscera Eyes Lyrics

great song....i think the translation is the keys to the song...being white and horrible at spanish i aint gonna do it but one discrepincy i noticed is in the 1st verse "they fold the shakes inside the third glass eye" and the second where they rot the shakes inside their glass eye.....no doubt that was intentional....in general on the surface...without the translation on hand i think this song is about religion making people ignorant...take the title for instance.....viscera is a reaction made out of instinct with no deliberation.....and an eye is at the center of everything...as in a hurricane but more as in the soul of a human being....basically saying there is no divine impulse in the human spirit...its just taking the easy route and use your brains people....not this supposed invisible eye...well thats my 2 cents peace out |

Sparta – Vacant Skies Lyrics

wow good song....its on the EP austere but didnt make the cut for wiretap scars...amazingly it has me listening to austere now and again just for this song...my 1st thought was....shouldnt this song be cataracts and cataracts be vacant skies?? well theres probably an explanation for that....anywho...the meaning from oliver above makes good sense....i just take the lyrics by themself and how jim delivers it....brilliance..makes up for the unpolished sound of the track...." and lastly....this song IS the best song ever.....when i'm currently listening to it...when i move onto another song....that is the best song ever...doesnt make you an idiot to have that attitude |
