Black Flag – I Love You Lyrics 14 years ago
This song's about Sid and Nancy in my opinion, he killed her with a knife.
When interviewed about it, he said "I didn't mean to kill her, I loved her. She just treated me like shit."

Built to Spill – Else Lyrics 15 years ago
I get this song because it's exactly how I am with relationships.
I finally don't mind that I never feel the same about people in relationships as they do about me, and in the end I get lonely and give in and need some lovin', we all do this, or will at some time, I assure you. After everything is done, we try to get up, but we've been lying there so long, and alas, something has fallen asleep. Intoxicated too sometimes, somehow when this happens, making it hard as well.
And just this side of love, on the other side of caring and wanting and needing each other, and on the side of using each other, like machines, so some level doesn't get too low, so we recharge each other's spark every now and then, we decide to end it.

Always this way. Always.
In some way or another.


I needed to share this.

Jason Mraz – Stranger in the Sky (Make Believe) Lyrics 16 years ago
I always thought it was about abuse.
Stranger in the sky, the victim was eventually beat to the point of death and the abuser never knew them inside and all they felt, "tell me i'm not spending too much time on happy endings
and my life does not rely on how much love you might be lending me", hence, stranger in the sky.

Elliott Smith – Half Right Lyrics 16 years ago
"Would you say that one of your dreams
Got in you and ripped out the seams?
Thats what I'd say
Thats what I'd say"

Kills me. It reminds me of my first relationship that ever really meant something to me, he was perfect for me, but he had stuff that he needed to deal with that I couldn't help him with, and he could hardly help himself. So, we ended it, mainly on his side, the day I got out of the psych hospital.
Talk about ripping out your seams.
I fell apart for a while.

Sufjan Stevens – Did I Make You Cry on Christmas Day? (Well, You Deserved It!) Lyrics 16 years ago
A lot of it makes me think it's about his dad and how he would never be around at Christmas time and such, but the grabbing by the wrist rather than kissing makes me think it's about a significant other.
It could change meaning halfway through though, you never know.

Elliott Smith – Between the Bars Lyrics 16 years ago
I always thought of "between the bars" in reference to being in jail, and she comes to visit him.
He was there because of domestic violence, and they both have some problems with alcoholism that they need to straighten out and I forgot where I was going with this.
Regardless, one of my favorite songs.

Religious reference?
Yeah, I'd like to think so.

One of if not my favorite Sparklehorse songs.

The Matches – Didi (My Doe, Part 2) Lyrics 16 years ago
Shawn isn't actually involved with someone, so it's definitely not a real proposal. He doesn't have a girlfriend.
I actually know him, and he's not the one in the band with the girl, although one would never know that from his lyrics.
