Avril Lavigne – Slipped Away Lyrics 16 years ago
lol at she_speaks

Not even just a random insult, but also well constructed.

If you're going to insult something, at least do it well.

Good work.

Death Cab for Cutie – Brothers on a Hotel Bed Lyrics 17 years ago
I just did an essay for my English class on this song, and actually a lot of the things that I drew from it were totally different from anything I've seen on here.

I think that the relationship isn't one that has lasted for a huge amount of time, and I think that the narrator is actually still quite young when they are broken up. I just think this because of the line "the youthful boy below" It's like he's recognising that he's still immature, and that he's not ready to have dealt with such major issues yet. I guess it's kind of contradicted by "these wrinkles masterfully disguise" but I just get the feeling that the person is still young, because to me a lot of the song shows immaturity.

For example, "both a beginning and an end" is completely melodramatic, and is like what young lovers have a tendency to say to one another, they swear that the other one means more to them than they ever could. It's kind of like he thought that she was going to be everything to him for his whole life.

Maybe I'm just completely wrong but, hey, eveyone can have opinions!

Wonder why that is?

I think it might be the longest song title ever... the version of the title that musicforlife! posted was 56 words long, and I googled longest song title ever and it said that the longest on record was some Swedish guys, and it was 52 words long.

Four Star Mary – She Knows Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song.

I thing leaveandletgo is totally right. It's about a girl knowing him so well that she can predict his reactions and feelings.

Amazing song.

Bright Eyes – If Winter Ends Lyrics 17 years ago
Best song I've heard in a long time.

To me, it's about feeling totally stuck where you are, and being desperate to get out

Sufjan Stevens – For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti Lyrics 17 years ago
I don't think it's about Jesus, but y'know, every song means different things to different people.

Death Cab for Cutie – Passenger Seat Lyrics 17 years ago
I don't think that this song is about boyfried-girlfriend love, I think it's about a mother and child love. I think that because it's so simple, just like the unconditional love of a mother to their child.
Just the innocent question - "Do they collide?"
Also, it makes a great contrast to the rest of the album about boyfriend-girlfriend love.

Death Cab for Cutie – Your Bruise Lyrics 17 years ago
The other song is "Tiny Vessels"
But I don't think that the bruise in this song is about a hickie, but I don't know what it's about!
I just think the bit about all the secrets giving him the shivers implies something much deeper than that.
