| The Mars Volta – Cicatriz ESP Lyrics | 12 years ago |

Just a thought - I just got back from Pyramid Lake, which is a remnant of the Pleistocene Lake Lahontan in Nevada & the whole region reminded me of this Mars Volta album. I thought of the lyrics "when they drag the lake there's nothing left at all". The whole region is ridiculously flat (along with Black Rock desert right next door) and empty... totally empty, as it once was the bottom of a giant lake. Anyway, go there. Think of this song. It might make sense. |

I like this explanation .. that's how it sounds to me. Partly it reminds me of waking up the next day with someone perhaps you don't know very well? /No need to be scared Let's jump into the day I wanna know I think I oughta go/ She wants to be certain about how she feels but has no idea. /I wanna know Should I stay or go?/ |

| Sonic Youth – Wish Fulfillment Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i agree with both pablohoneydew and mogulwraith this song is about someone the singer knows- who is breaking away and selling themselves to fame.. they are pursuing their dreams and getting caught in them. "I see you run to make a call Hoping that there's someone free" slowly the person is becoming "too important" for the singer, getting caught up in the spotlight, and doesn't turn back to reflect on his/her past and roots. "You've never seemed so far" and "I ain't turning my back on you" indicates to me that the relationship is gradually breaking apart but the singer is still sticking to his/her friend through it all - "I'm still on your side in spite of everything you do" the glamor and the spotlight is causing the person to lose a bit of their soul in the process - "You might be empty/ The way your eyes just look right through" This person is calling a lost friend back to them, back to where the dreams first began and first took off - "Come wish beside me/ Don't you know you know what's right?" i feel like the "wish fulfillment every day" emphasizes how monotonous living the dream can become - and how much it can drain a person and remove them from their old friends. |

| Sonic Youth – The Diamond Sea Lyrics | 16 years ago |

i agree a lot with gregsher i think this is about a relationship that began out built out of illusions and created to bolster self-image rather than out of true love. the song describes a relationship that people use to "make their mirror grow" - ie improve their self-image and external image as well- it may be linked to fame and Kim and Thurston's own relationship. "you better watch yourself when you jump into it, cuz the mirror's gonna steal your soul" this reminds me of the myth of Narcissus - that self image that feeds the relationship will eventually eat away at you and eventually the "dreams" (that the kids obliviously like to dress in) will fade and you will only be left with a mirror, feeling empty. the "diamond ring" represents the illusions that one is allured by when they enter a relationship. "your mirrors gonna crack when he breaks into it and you'll never, never be the same" i feel like this means that your Ego, your Self-image will crack when you enter the relationship with him - as so many compromises are made, people force others to grow and change beyond what is comfortable for their self-image "i wonder how he's gonna make it back when he sees that you just know it's make believe" the relationship was imbued and created in some sort of illusion- so how is she going to react when the illusion fades and she realizes her real self-image and the true reality of the connection? "you reflect into his looking glass soul and now the mirror is your only friend" this describes feeling lost, being alone yet within a relationship. the connection was built on illusions and projected self-image and now that self-image is all you have left |
