I heard that she wrote this song about her ex-boyfriend and lead singer of Relient K, Matt Thiessen. Anyone know if that's true??? |

| Taylor Swift – White Horse Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
this song is about a girl and a boy who met in a far away land and she fell head over heels for him and gave up everything to be with him and he called her his princess but now he's moving away to go to school and they both know long-distance won't work so she realizes that she's not really his princess, and as perfect and as comfortable as she is with him, life isn't a fairy tale. and he says he's sorry for leaving her and not knowing if she's the "one," but she knows she'd rather be alone then be with someone who isn't sure. |

i heard this song was about che guevara... which, if you think about it, makes sense. he was raised catholic, became a revolutionary leader, and then left cuba to lead riots and failed (and was captured and killed). any thoughts????? |

| Something Corporate – She Paints Me Blue Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Okay, so we've pretty much got the gist of what 'yellow relies on blue' means.... but what about "she paints me blue"?? Is he still referring to the complimentary colors? When I was younger, the first thing I thought when I heard this song was that 'maybe she gives him blue balls'... but I could be totally wrong on that.... | |
| Jon Mclaughlin – Beautiful Disaster Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
first of all, "Kimn" has got it all wrong. there is no way that this song is shallow and unsympathetic. This song is about a guy (could be Jon, could be anyone) seeing young women everywhere who are constantly tearing themselves down thanks to magazine articles, the "pretty girls" at school, etc etc. Its purposely slightly vague because it's NOT one girl in specific, its every American young lady. We all compare ourselves, we all think we're imperfect, and we're afraid to say we're lost. What girl can say she's never wanted someone to just come rescue her, someone to "take her home"? |

| Jon Mclaughlin – Indiana Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
this song is totally about me & my best (guy) friend he's from indiana. we go to school in the city (new york city, that is). and he fell in love with me... and i didn't return the favor.... and i'm sure he's just sitting in indiana, right now, trying to convince himself that he's glad he's not with me.... |

| Sleeping At Last – Quicksand Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| the line "love is made of yarn/scissors/a slip of the hand/a slip of the tongue/God knows I meant no harm" is one of my favorite lyric lines of all time. This song is beautiful. It's about wanting to trust someone and you just... can't... Other people have abused your trust now you have nothing left. | |
| Switchfoot – Let That Be Enough Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about being in a downwards spiral... not knowing who you are or what you're doing or if anything is even real. It about that moment in life where everything is questionable and nothing is certain. You need something... Someone... To just reach out and let you know they're there. Because if just ONE thing... if just their presence is all that's certain... than that is enough. |

| Blink-182 – Adam's Song Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| i think it's ironic that cdog82191 picked out the apple juice line ("Remember the time I spilled the cup of apple juice in the hall... Please tell mom this is not her fault") as the line that didn't fit, because that has always been my favorite lyric line in the whole song. It brings a sense of real life and ordinary situations intermingled into the sadness. | |
| Frank Sinatra – Send In The Clowns Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Although this song is ridiculously depressing, Sinatra wasn't kidding when he says it's a "lovely marriage of words and music." The piano... His voice... The lyrics... Truly great. | |
| Third Eye Blind – Deep Inside of You Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
this song is about falling in love with lusting after or having (casual) sex with someone... and then once it's over, you realize that you actually care about them. this song is BEAUTIFUL. |

| Snow Patrol – Set the Fire to the Third Bar Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
when i think of this song, i think of daydreams. it's about one who has been far away from the one they love for a long time, and you miss them so badly but the only thing you can do is imagine what its like when you've "traveled so far" and see them, sharing a "joy you can't keep in" or else "pray that something picks (you) up and sets (you) down in (their) warm arms" |

| The Fray – Heaven Forbid Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about a girl who--similarly to myself-- has spent the past twenty(ish) years looking for something everyone else has but she can't find. She compensates for her lack of love by going for random hookups, meaningless short relationships, and nights spent alone. The singer is a friend of hers, possibly a guy friend who cares for her, telling her that everything will be okay. He slightly mocks her actions by saying "heaven forbid you end up alone" but you can tell he has genuine concerns mixed in as well when he says "out of this one I don't know how to get you". He wants to get her out of the mess of relationships shes in but doesn't know hoe. Also, he's trying to warn her that things that feel (temporarily) good isn't reason enough to settle. |
