Ray LaMontagne – This Love Is Over Lyrics 12 years ago
I can't believe no one has commented on this yet. Like a lot of Ray's songs, this one is pretty self explanatory. You can just hear the heartache in his voice. In certain lines you can almost hear the tear in his voice. And the way he sings the chorus... Amazing. One of my favorites by him for sure!

Evans Blue – Bulletproof Lyrics 14 years ago
I think this song is about a relationship that is definitely going down hill. The girl he is singing about is more worried about appearance than the actual relationship itself. And it seems they are just going through the motions and she has no emotion towards him except resentment ("Why can't you fake me a reason why you choose to blame me for all the times you hide.") I think he doesn't understand why she is being like this and he just wants her to give him something... Anything to know she is still there. And he's telling her it doesn't matter how little emotion she tries to show, she still has a heart and she is still human ("Your heart is real, it isn't bulletproof")

I dunno... I may be totally wrong about it all... But that's what I feel this song is about.


This song is amazing and I listen to it alllll the time!

Framing Hanley – Photographs And Gasoline Lyrics 14 years ago
Ok first of all, let me say that this song has a sexiness to it that I love. Like the actual music is just... well sexy... Haha

But to me this song is about a guy breaking up with his gf. But I think that she was the rebound because he says "I was thinking about telling you that I was in love with her. I'm still in love with her." And in the second verse he says "I was never really your's in the first place."

The relationship they have is volatile and sexual: "The chemistry between liars like you and me ignites like gasoline". Maybe they were both rebounds for the other. They both have someone else they would rather be with.

Love this song. One of my faves on the album.

My heart makes lots of sense

Perfect. :-)

Chevelle – Jars Lyrics 14 years ago
I agree with a lot of what ConnorH33 is saying except for a few things.

I think when he is saying "We can't both become the same pawn that's made to fall" he is saying that only one of us is going to win this battle. We both can't win. I do think he is talking about the war and the effect it has had on the world around us.

"From me to you, your stabbing me through you, you're stabbing you through him" I think means that it doesn't matter who the fighting is directed towards, if effects everyone and it is a never ending process because it just goes around in a big circle.

"Feeling manic for a day, depends on the trends, depends on the surface, if the sun never sets" What each side does depends on the other side. If one side strikes, the other strikes back. And I agree that the sunset is the end of the war. He is saying that if the war never ends then the fighting will never stop (obviously).


Also, I think that "Is the main thing you shout til the bitter end into jars" is all one complete thought (like I typed it.) I think what he means by this is people can say things all day about what they would do to stop the war or make peace or save the environment, but really all they are doing is screaming into jars. Meaning, they won' ever be heard or make a difference until they actually put their thoughts and words into action and start being proactive about things. So he is asking "Are you going to actually do soemthing about it or are you just going to continue to just speak the words?"

But this is all just my interpretation of it all, I could be all wrong.

SafetySuit – Gone Away Lyrics 15 years ago
i think this song is about how you feel after you and someone you love end things. whether you or the other person ended things. you know that you don't belong together but you still miss that person. when you think about it all you can get so wrapped up in missing that person that you just don't want to do it anymore. you don't want to think of them and you want to escape from everything because thinking of it all makes you miss the way things were when you were with that person.

i don't even know if that made sense to anyone else but it does to me.

Eric Church – Those I've Loved Lyrics 15 years ago
this is one of the prettiest songs i have ever heard. this song is about the love that you have for people and the love they have for you. and about not having regrets when you lose someone that you have loved because their love has made you who you are today and you learned from them and that love. it's so pretty.

Eric Church – Lotta Boot Left to Fill Lyrics 15 years ago
i'm pretty sure he is talking about jason aldean. i could be wrong but i'm sure he is. he's talking about all the pretty boy country/pop guys out there on the radio and on cmt and all. all the guys who the music industry created that don't write their own songs and sing whatever is put in front of them just to sale some records. they will never fill the boots of the legends like johnny cash and hank williams and merle haggard. they don't have what it takes. unlike guys who actually DO have REAL talent and who aren't trying to fit into the mold. like eric church or jamey johnson for instance. they are REAL musicians and artists, not some cookie cutter country/pop boys.

now that i am done with that rant. this song is GREAT! way to go eric!

Eric Church – Sinners Like Me Lyrics 15 years ago
this song is incredible. i mean the meaning is pretty obvious but i just have to say that my favorite part of the song is "on the day i die i know where i'm gonna go. me and jesus got that part worked out." so clever and well thought out.

Eric Church – Can't Take It With You Lyrics 15 years ago
this song is incredible. he is such a clever lyricist. and i'm not really sure why people are confused with him saying "who says you can't take it with you when you go." that is an old saying that i have heard my entire life. only in the saying it is usually talking about when you die you can't take all your worldly posessions with you when you go, but he obviously just put his own clever twist to it.

and answering to sm000's confusion: she is almost to dallas and she was everything to him and she took everything of his (physically and emotionally) with him when she left. hope that helps your confusion some. :-)


and just a note to kaki. you are stupid. if you don't like what eric church has to say then don't listen to him. he doesn't need idiots like you listening to him because there are pleanty of people who love his music. and that doesn't make all of us right wing conservatives or ignorant.

Robert Pattinson – Let Me Sign Lyrics 15 years ago
let me start off by saying that this song is the most beautiful 2 minutes i have ever heard. the soul and emotion in his voice makes me cry. it's incredible. i can't stop listening to the song. i was so shocked when i found out that it was him singing it. i don't think this song would be half as affective if he didn't have the emotion in his voice that he has. you can tell he was feeling every word he was saying... i would have never imagined that voice coming out of him! he should definitly record an album.

as far as the lyrics... they fit PERFECTLY in the movie. especially into that particular scene. it's pretty amazing how that song wasn't written for the movie but fit in so well. i wish he would record the full length version.

i feel it's about him trying to resist her but he can't. she is his destiny. he's "damned by the light" because of what he is... but she doesn't care. and she wants to be with him forever. no matter what she has to do. so the words "let me sign" mean that she will do anything to be with him, even signing her soul over.

this is about true, undying love...

Matchbox Twenty – Rest Stop Lyrics 16 years ago
even though the song is about a true story in Rob's life it definitly is a song that everyone can relate to at some point and time in his or her life...i can relate to it from both sides of the story... i've been in both persons shoes and its not easy either way... this is my favorite matchbox 20 song... its beautiful and shows so much emotion.

Live – Turn My Head Lyrics 16 years ago
i think this song is about loving someone... not raping a girl... i think he is in love with a girl that people wouldn't approve of... a girl who has a "bad name" or maybe a bad reputation.. but he see's something more... he's had a taste of her and now he can't stop thinking about her...

it can be interpreted a number of ways though... that's the beauty of Live songs... they are so deep and so meaningful and they are so abstract that they can relate to anyone and the interpretations are left up to the person listnening...

i love this song...

Matt Wertz – With You, Tonight Lyrics 16 years ago
this song is about missing someone and just wanting to be with that person again because you are better when you are with him/her.

i love the lines:
"When streetlights kissed
Upon your lips
My jealous eyes saw it all of it"
he is so in love with this girl that he is jealous of the lights that shines on her because it gets to be in her presense and he doesn't... its sweet

a very simple but beautiful love song.

Framing Hanley – 23 Days Lyrics 16 years ago
she cheated... and they are through... possibly she left him for the other guy... but he still wants her even though she did what she did.. he wants everything to go back to the way it was... he's frusterated that they aren't together anymore because of what she did but he would still take her back if she wanted him back... i think in the end of the song that they spend a night together again and thats all he really wanted is for one more night to be the way it was before...

this song seems kinda bipolar but i love it... its such a great song

Framing Hanley – Hear Me Now Lyrics 16 years ago
first an FYI to razr1313... just because a song is titled "hear me now" doesn't mean it has to say it... it does in fact say "can you feel now" in that one part... if you don't believe it then check the lyrics they posted themselves on myspace...

on with the song... although i can see everyone's point on the song being about someone who has reached their limit, i see this song meaning something else...

the song isn't saying "I'VE been down this road" or "i'm sorry I'VE let you down again", it's saying "WE'VE been down this road" and "i'm sorry WE'VE let you down"... i think its talking about one of two things.. its either talking about our generation (generation Y) and how we are looked down upon...

OR it has a bigger meaning... and this is the one i lean towards more... i think this song is a plea to the world in which we live and the people living in it... we are so worried about what other people are doing that we don't care to look at our own lives... and all the world is trying to do is make us believe lie after lie... he is begging (now my body's on the floor and i am calling out to you) the people of the world to change... and even though i know how people get when there is talk of religious conotations in songs but i also think that in parts of the song he is talking to God as well (i'm sorry if we've let you down)... also i think there are two "voices" in the prechorus... one is the world telling you to believe in the lie they are telling you the other voice is saying you need to get on your knees and have faith (obviously) and they seem to be fighting each other... the world wants you to believe that there is no God or higher being to have faith in but you need to believe that because that is your salvation and can be your sanity in this world full of lies and deception...


ps... i have been a fan of these guys since they were just a local band in nashville... WE LOVE OUR NASHVILLE BOYS!!!!!!!!

Framing Hanley – Built For Sin Lyrics 16 years ago
i agree with jedigirl... this song is about drug addiction and what it can do to a relationship... and actually i feel every word to this song cuz i know how it feels being in a relationship with someone who is an addict...

in the first verse he is telling the girl to get help... help is the train leaving town... in the line "conscience is a faint, unpleasant sound. you've worried enough, here's your chance so take it" i feel he is telling her to listen to the voice saying what she is doing is wrong even though she really doesn't like what its saying... and if she doesn't listen and get help its going to be like a ticking time bomb just waiting to go off because you never know when the drugs will be too much to handle (a heart attack is sleeping in your chest) so you need to get help while you still can (so make a move while you're still breathing)

i think he is basically saying in the chorus your cover is blown and you aren't as innocent as you look... and as much as i want to be with you, i can't because of your issues

in the second verse he is saying did i mean anything to you or was it a lie? was i just someone to catch you when you fell? (when you were mine, was i for you, just one cheap thrill just to help you make it? dammit i hope you didn't fake it)... he's also telling her that her lies are starting to wear her down (hypocrisy has really aged you well) and she needs to come clean to everyone before she drives everyone away and while people still care about her (the white on your nose is your secret to tell so you should speak while they're still listening)

in the bridge, its come to the point where her life has fallen apart because she didn't come clean with everyone and she didn't get help and pretty much everyone has washed their hands clean of her, including him (you can scream outloud but your panic falls on deaf ears)... he's telling her that she can't blame anyone else because she did this to herself (this is where you've brought yourself and this is what you've always feared)... i think that the world is the "faceless crowd" that he is referring to and the world has no sympathy for her and neither does he anymore

ong explaination i know... BUT i think it's what the song is about... ;-)

Framing Hanley – Alone In This Bed (Capeside) Lyrics 16 years ago
this song is so beautiful and seeing nixon sing it is even more beautiful... like dduff said, its about ashley hanley and how much she is missed by the band because she was loved by not only her bf the drummer but the band as a whole... but it can be related to anyone who has lost someone close to them...

losing someone is never an easy thing especially when its so abruptly. life isn't the same without that person (waking up without you just doesn't seem right)and sometimes you can still feel them there with you (sometimes i think i can feel you breathing on my neck)... it gets really hard having to live without that person in your life and you fell like its never going to get any better for you (i've got the feeling this will never cease)... sometimes the only hope you feel that you have is that one day you will be with that person again...

i know that i personally connect very strongly to the line "tonight i'm screaming out to the stars, He knows He owes me a favor" because i have felt that way... and anyone who has lost someone close to them i'm sure can relate as well...

Audioslave – I Am the Highway Lyrics 16 years ago
first let me say that this is SUCH an amazing song... i listened to this song on repeat when me and my ex broke up because every single word was how i was feeling...

finally breaking away from an unhealthy relationsip and building up the courage to do so isn't an easy thing to do (long and weary my road has been) especially when you have been blinded by it for so long (i was lost in the cities...) but in the end you aren't sorry for leaving (no sorrow or pity for leaving i feel)

the chorus is basically saying 'i'm so much more than what you tried to make me think i was'

in the second verse he doesn't want his friends there to try and console him and he doesn't want to be around people who are going to lie to him and just tell him what he wants to hear (which could very likely be friends as well) he is trying to figure things out by himself (friends and liars don't wait for me, i'll get on all by myself)...

in the end leaving someone is a hard thing to do because you are always going to have a piece of that person with you (i put millions of mles under my heels but still to close to you i feel)... but you know that you are more than the way they made you feel so you keep on keepin on

submissions
Audioslave – Getaway Car Lyrics 16 years ago
i really think this song is about a person who is in an emotionally draining relationship... he doesn't think they can handle it anymore and is telling the other person either you fix yourself or i'm leaving (settle down, i won't hesitate to hit the highway)...

it seems to me that in the first verse he is talking about seeing this girl that seemed to be out of his league so he just kept walking, but she turned out to wanna be with him (never thought you'd wind up chasing me)...

but as the song goes on he is realizing that she isn't all that he thought she was and she is getting to be too much for him so he is second guessing the whole thing

he's telling her she needs to take some time to herself to get herself sorted out or he's gone

i love this song... to me, this song is about realizing that you've had enough of being in a relationship that you put more effort into than the other person did... he's saying do whatever you want(you say you wanted more, what are you waiting for?) cuz i'm through with it (come break me down, bury me bury me, i am finised with you)... he's tired of not gettin back what he has put in to the relationship because he tried to change himself to fit her needs but she didn't appreciate it or try to change herself at all either (i tried to be someone else but nothing seemed to change)... and it's killing him cuz he wanted it to work so bad(look in my eyes, you're killing me killing me. all i wanted was you) but he is over it(i am finished with you)... or atleast that's what i get from it

Incubus – Oil and Water Lyrics 17 years ago
to me, this song is about realizing that no matter how hard you try, you just can't mix with that certain someone...

"Babe this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
We tried to believe everything could get better"
he's saying that we keep thinking things are gonna get better but they aren't...

"We've been...
Lying to each other, hey babe..
Let's just call it, call it, call it
Oooh what it is:
Oil and water"
we both know this isn't gonna work out... and we would be lying if we said we didn't...

i think he's saying let's just go our seperate ways... cut our losses..

Incubus – Dig Lyrics 17 years ago
i love this song... i makes me think of the relationship i have with my friends... we keep each other in check... and just like the song says "So when weakness turns my ego up I know you'll count on the me from yesterday" your friends know the real you so they know that if you say or do something idiotic, it isn't the real you and you will get over it... and they will help you get over it...

and i think the line "we'll make a pact to never speak that word again" could be interpreted in 2 ways.. 1: two friends crossed the friendshiip line and maybe the word love came into play... or 2: they got in a fight and the word hate came into play... but they know that even though a line was crossed they will get over it because they are friends.
