| Damien Rice – Volcano Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I dont think he's reffering to her age when he sings "She's still too young," but rather her innocence. I think he's trying to tell her he is not the person she thinks of him as. He does not want her to get over associated with him for fear of wrecking her innocence."And what I am to you is not real And what I am to you, you do not need." and i think, in return, she is telling him to take her love more seriously. not to drag it around, although he very well may be incapable of loving her. just a thought. I like the LIVE version of this song better. its more raw and passionate. |

|
| Iron & Wine – Evening on the Ground (Lilith's Song) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
"We were born to fuck each other, one way or the other." if any line in this song proves that it is about the sin of lilith, it is this one. Obviously, as the only two people on the earth, adam and lilith would have to have sex to populate the world, which is what they were made for. Lilith, however, was fucked over by adam when he would allow her to have her independence. bobbyW interprets it very well. |
|
| Joshua Radin – Sky Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
they sing so great together. but in all honestly, i do think the dreams are symbolic for the underlying trouble in thier relationships. but they choose to ignore it while they are awake becasue it is easier to go on together then to break up. |

| William Fitzsimmons – Funeral Dress Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think this song is obviously about death, but not from a dead man. Obviously, the song is called funeral DRESS. I imagine it being about a little girl. I suppose this is because every time i hear it, i think of my baby sister, who died recently at the age of five. Even at such a young age she was filled with love and life. She always was there to make people laugh and smile and i know she wouldnt want us to stop our lives because if what happened. and the thing about her is she never loved anyone any less despite their faults. her love was unconditional. and the line "i cant wait for you" is particularly important to me because her death was unexpected and none of us felt it was here time. but she had to go, she couldnt wait for us. | |
| William Fitzsimmons – Passion Play Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| He's trying to find his place and he's looking to christianity for answers in this particular song. | |
| Cloud Cult – Washed Your Car Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| favorite cloud cult song, next to bobby's spacesuit. I have to mostly agree with whats been said. However, do you realize these lyrics leave out the part at the end where he sings " kill her, kill her..." i'm pretty sure those lines could be crucial to intepreting the song. | |
| Cloud Cult – Bobby's Spacesuit Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| i really do love this song. "screw your D size cups cause i'm a way better lover." epic. | |

i hate how they changed this song into the english version " now youre gone." the english version sucks!!! |
|
| The Beatles – Revolution 1 Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| To me, this song is about how people should more so have a revelution of thought than a physical revolution. basically, he is saying these people are all protesting against the war and violence. but then thes protestors go out and get violent themselves. isnt that a little hypocritical? The Line " you better free you mind instead" means to me that people need to have a revolution within themselves before they can go out and do all that stuff. | |
| Martina McBride – In My Daughter's Eyes Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
this song was played at my five year old sisters funeral. it was so appropriate too because she taught us all the way love should be, equal and pure. she was so strong willed and vivacious. i try to live my life like she did, never worryin about anything and loving everyone. |
|
| Bayside – A Rite of Passage Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Its "sinner," not singer. This song is about the struggle of wanting to be liked. Everyone goes through it. Its just some people find out whether or not people like you isnt such a big deal. this song is so catchy. |

| Elliott Smith – Riot Coming Lyrics | 15 years ago |

He didnt want to sell out. Record Company wanted him to. He's torn. Not all of elliott smiths songs are about drugs or addiction people. |

Basically, Be Your Own Person. Dont Let Petty Influences Change You. |
|
| Rise Against – Heaven Knows Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
"The Day I Learn To Fly, I'm Never Coming Down." How powerful. Rise Against never does just spell things out for us, do they but then again, i suppose thats why their songs are so meaningful |

| The Monkees – Daydream Believer Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i do not think this is a sad song! seriously people! I think he is saying all He(daydream Believer) and she (homecoming queen) need are each other. |
|
| Missy Higgins – The Special Two Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I also think she cheated on him. and of course, regrets it. "And you make boundaries you'd never dream to cross, and if you happen to you wake completely lost. But I will fight for you, be sure that I will fight until we're the special two once again" and.. "So is it better to tell and hurt or lie to save their face Well I guess the answer is don't do it in the first place. I know I'm not deserving of your trust from you right now, but if by chance you change your mind you know I will not let you down" My favortie line in this song is " when you're young you have this image of your life. " How True. You have everything in your life all planned and then you find that shit happens, basically. Growing up, all a girl wants is that cookie-cutter romance, and it is so disappointing to discover that isnt how it works. |
|
| Death Cab for Cutie – The Sound of Settling Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| i think this song is about regretting things you never did that maybe you should have. But, what is done is done so you have to do with what you got. | |
| Barenaked Ladies – One Week Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| all i gotta say is sailor moon rocks. big props to bnl. | |
| Sarah McLachlan – I Will Remember You Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i think this song is about realizing how much people take thier lives for granted. after you lose someone, i think it is an eye opener. dont take your life for granted. "weep not for the memories." memories are great, but we cant live in the past. of course you are always going to remember those who were lost, but they wouldnt want you to waste your life away. Before my grandma died of cancer she requested no funeral, but instead asked us to hold a "party" to celebrate her life. She didnt want us to grieve for her or be sad, she just wanted us to remember her as she was and look back on all our good memories we had of her. | |
| Sarah McLachlan – Angel Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| yeah i def. see how this song could be about overdosing, but i think its relatable for everyone whos ever lost a loved one. it reminds me of that old cliche "they are in a better place." they were taken away from all their pain and are finding comfort in the " arms of an angel" | |
| Eric Clapton – Tears In Heaven Lyrics | 16 years ago |

| Nat King Cole – When I Fall in Love Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i cant believe no ones commented on this...im suprisingly a hardcore nat king cole fan and this song is my favorite of his. i can relate to it sooo much. to me, its like saying nowadays people toss love around like its nothing. but to him, its something special and hes not gonna give his heart until hes sure that persons the one for him. |
|
| Paper Lace – Billy Don't Be A Hero Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i dont know...like i feel in a sense that i can relate to this song. my brother is suppossed to be deployed to iraq here soon and even though the relationship is not the same as the one the song addresses, i know the feeling. when someone joins goes off to war, it not only effects them, but the people around them. on one hand, you want to be proud of that person for fighting for the country and whatnot, but on the other hand, its a realllllly scary thought that they are being put into that situiation. this song reminds me of the show army wives.... | |
| The Jimi Hendrix Experience – If 6 Was 9 Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i think people underestimate hendrix. he wasnt just some guy who sat around all day stoned (rockstardude?). yeah im sure he had his occasional high and what not, but seriously, who didnt back then? he had intelligent thoughts and opinions on subjects like the war and such. this is def. on of my favorite jimi hendrix songs. i think its about not caring about what others think of you--"im gonna wave my freak flag high..". its about being your own individaul person despite what others think. |
|
| The Jimi Hendrix Experience – The Star Spangled Banner Lyrics | 16 years ago |

| Letter Kills – Don't Believe Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i def. dont think this song is to a girlfriend. i think its just addressing everyone in general. i agree with the part about being imperfect though..hes saying you cant put your faith in people because they are not perfect and they will make mistakes. | |
| John Denver – Leaving On a Jet Plane Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i heard john denver wrote this song while sitting in an airport. sorta funny how that happens. | |
| Janis Joplin – Cry Baby Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i think that janis sounds the best in this song..especially at the very beginning. | |
| Rise Against – Paper Wings Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
the meaning of this song is obvious, at least to me. its about making the right desicions in life. do what you think is right, follow your own path, dont worry about what others are doing. Dont waste your time on trivial things, set a goal and strive for it. "swing for the fences." go big or go home. shoot for the stars. all those other cliches of the like. you get the point. |

| Pearl Jam – Alive Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Taken from "Five Against the World" by Cameron Crowe Rolling Stone 10/28/93 The following is an excerpt. Rather read the whole thing? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Alive" set the tone for everything that would follow. The first song on Ten was also the first song to bring attention to the band. It was clearly Vedder's creative breakthrough, and the band's initial video celebrated a cathartic live performance of the song. In an early Los Angeles Times review, writer Chris William had even compared the song to the Who's "My Generation." Today, "Alive" is a Gen X rallying cry, but tonight, sitting in the Nightlite, Vedder reveals the true meaning of the song. "Everybody writes about it like it's a life-affirmation, thing - I'm really glad about that,' he says with a rueful laugh "It's a great interpretation. But 'Alive' is ... it's torture. Which is why it's fucked up for me. Why I should probably learn how to sing another way. It would be easier. It's... it's too much." Vedder continues: "The story of the song is that a mother is with a father and the father dies. It's an intense thing because the son looks just like the father. The son grows up to be the father, the person that she lost. His father's dead, and now this confusion, his mother, his love, how does he love her, how does she love him? In fact, the mother, even though she marries somebody else, there's no one she's ever loved more than the father. You know how it is, first loves and stuff. And the guy dies. How could you ever get him back? But the son. He looks exactly like him. It's uncanny. So she wants him. The son is oblivious to it all. He doesn't know what the fuck is going on. He's still dealing, he's still growing up. He's still dealing with love, he's still dealing with the death of his father. All he knows is 'I'm still alive' - those three words, that's totally out of burden." Elvis' "Suspicious Minds" blasts on the jukebox as Vedder continues. "Now the second verse is 'Oh she walks slowly into a young man's room... I can remember to this very day . . . the look . . . the look.' And I don't say anything else. And because I'm saying, 'The look, the look' everyone thinks it goes with 'on her face.' It's not on her face. The look is between her legs. Where do you go with that? That's where you came from." "But I'm still alive. I'm the lover that's still alive. And the whole conversation about 'You're still alive, she said' And his doubts: 'Do I deserve to be? Is that the question?' Because he's fucked up forever! So now he doesn't know how to deal with it, so what does he do, he goes out killing people - that was [the song] 'Once.' He becomes a serial killer. And 'Footsteps,' the final song of the trilogy [it was released as a U.K. B side to 'Jeremy'], that's when he gets executed That's what happens. The Green River killer... and in San Diego, there was another prostitute killer down there. Somehow I related to that. I think that happens more than we know. It's a modern way of dealing with a bad life." Then he smiles as he says, "I'm just glad I became a songwriter." |

| Fleetwood Mac – Landslide Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i think this is about trying to figure out her own sense of individuality, becuase as children, we look up to our parents and its like they can do no wrong. but there comes a time in everyones life where we realize that our parents arent always going to be making every desicion for us, and we have to make our own. you want to do whats right for you, but at the same time you dont want to dissapoint anyone. "Well I've been afraid of changin' because I've built my life around you" |
