Great Big Sea – The Night Pat Murphy Died Lyrics | 14 years ago |
sorry b'ys. but it's about celebrating a good friend. sure kindof using it as an excuse to party, but still, there is no riot. |
Donora – I Think I Like You Lyrics | 15 years ago |
cutest song i've heard in a while. the meaning doesn't carry any hidden meaning. donora is simply adorable. |
The Lisps – Pepper Spray Lyrics | 15 years ago |
phenomenal song. they're a great mix of every artist i love. the meaning is kindof obvious. but i just can't get over this band. |
Tegan and Sara – Beauty Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i thought the same thing first time i heard the song. i've been struggling with my sexuality for a while. i've had really strong feelings for a specific person and the lyrics really speak to me. like "i set my myself up every time you leave" like, i want to tell her, but the fear and pain holds you back. beautiful song. |
The Coast – Ceremony Guns Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i am in LOVE with this band. their myspace is my home page. haaaa. it seems to be about life falling apart in some way. and whoever it is, knows somethings happening, pulling at the seams. Like all of a sudden, its an Armageddon of his life. "collapse the walls inside my mind". Kindof a helpless feeling. in a groundbreaking lyrical form. |
Cat Power – I Feel Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i just bought this record., today. and i am officially in love. listening to it right now. i read the rap version and i LOVE how she re did it. its so tasteful, and different, yet it still sounds kindof like the original. cat power continues to amaze me. |
Sufjan Stevens – All the Trees of the Field Will Clap Their Hands Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i am hardly a christian person myself.i haven't been to a church for a service ever since i've been able to decicde whether to go or whether to not. So i didn't see any refrence to God in this song, though i was aware Sufjan was religious, and did write most of his songs for God, The Bible etc. All i heard was about someone wanting to make things better in the world or in his life for someone he cared greatly about "If I am alive this time next year". If he will live long enough to carry out wihatever he an do to make that other person happy. As if they're gone away and he is making himself better for when they return. That can very well be translated into a religious meaning. But that is whats so brilliant about Sufjan. The only reason his "christian music" (if you will) is bearable is because it can be related to by anyone, be them religious or not. It connects to different people on different levels, which to me is the true mark of an artistic geinus. |
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Pin Lyrics | 16 years ago |
shes ushing things to the limit, or "pushing in the pin" and seems as if shes making light of it. "i like to sleep with him" but she knows its pushing something and she knows its all going to fall apart if she keeps pushing in the pin. the pin, being limitations to all she knows is right. |
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Way Out Lyrics | 16 years ago |
2 people 1 relationship 1 wants to move on. and isn't satasfied with the other at all. |
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Isis Lyrics | 16 years ago |
yeah. i think it has something relating to the goddess Isis. i believe Osiris was locked in a coffin made just for him by his envious brother, Set, and Set put his body in a river (nile?) when Set found his casket washed ashore, he then cut him into 14 pieces? and Set hid the pieces of his body in various places in egypt. and Isis, his wife/sister went looking for all of them. and found every piece but one. so maybe its about a girl trying to put a guy back together in some way. im not quite sure but the egyptian mythology is truely fascinating. |
Feist – The Water Lyrics | 16 years ago |
you don't realize what you've done or who you are until something happens that changes all that has been. and dictates all that will be. |
Feist – Honey Honey Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i think her "honey honey" is gone away probably at sea. or maybe somewhere else. maybe the sea represents something powerful, and unforiving taking him away from her. and everything around her reminds her of him. and she only hopes her misses ehr the same even though she still loves him, she has lost every thing that has told her he would come back even if he wanted to |
Regina Spektor – Just Like the Movies Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i like to think he comes back in the end |
Nada Surf – Do It Again Lyrics | 16 years ago |
it is a great song. sounds like something you'd play on a road trip. cause some things in it, relate to driving "when i accelerate, i remember why its good to be alive" like the person in it, wasted away the year, or soemthing "bought books and didnt read i thing" like he knows he's wasting his life at what he's doing "walking upright" and gets away. i love the chorus. the way his voice sounds, and everything comes together with the drums. gives me an infinate feeling. truely amazing. |
Regina Spektor – That Time Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i think its about going back over memories with an old guy friend you were really close to, and really cared about. not trying to relive memories, just reminicing over the better times. it seems to get worse and worse as the versus go on, and time stretches, they got older from reading shakespear and favoite colors to smoking parilments and camels and ODing but she can read his mind, and they're still as close as they were before. |
Regina Spektor – Chelsea Hotel #2 (Leonard Cohen cover) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
im not sure if i like it better than leonard's. they're both pretty different, but eequally beautiful. its more the words than how it sounds. |

50 Cent – In Da Club Lyrics | 16 years ago |
though i don't really believe in discriminating against different genres of music i searched this as a joke. you can talk about the song, love the song, and dance to the song. however it shouldn't be on a website about song meanings. when clearly, this song doesn't have one. |
The Smashing Pumpkins – Dancing in the Moonlight Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i think its about each day falling into the next. how things happen and come into place. decisions you could have made, and probably should have made. but dancing in the moonlight, seems to symbolize giving into the moment and not worrying about whatever comes next. |
The Smashing Pumpkins – To Sheila Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i think its about loving someone whose very sad and has problems with trusting. and even though they're close to you, there's too much going on "it meant the world to hold a bruising faith" wanting to hold on to that person, even though you know there's so much between you. |
Bloc Party – Skeleton Lyrics | 16 years ago |
he's achieved so much but he has gotten no joy out of it because its what he was supposed to want but all he wants is to enjoy whatever comes his way |
Bloc Party – Two More Years Lyrics | 16 years ago |
dear thecomaboy i hope you have her now |
Metric – Too Little Too Late Lyrics | 16 years ago |
im pretty sure its about having a lot of things on your conscience and tieing your hand to the bible. is simly a way to try and be forgiven for the things you've done |
Bright Eyes – Poison Oak Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i dont know why. but when i first listined to this song. it felt like he was going out with, in love with, or liked a girl who was becoming someone very grown up "womens clothes" felt like the responsibilities of getting older. and she was hiding them in her drawer so she didn't have to face the fact she was growing up. so she runs away, and tries to escape time. And ends up commiting suicide in the end. its just what first same to mind. might not be what was exactly in conors mind at that time. any way you see it. its a beautiful song. |
Bright Eyes – The Joy in Discovery Lyrics | 16 years ago |
to me its about a girl who does all these things and puts herslef in all these situations that makes her seem like she wants one thing. probably love. but when it comes down to her getting what she wants its almost as though she pulls away. im only hitting the surface of what i think the song means. its so deep in its simplicity, there really is no way to narrow it down to one meaning. |
Bright Eyes – Touch Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i dont know if its because i feel like this right now. but anyway to me, it seems like they want to be together, but one of them has to go away. maybe not far away, but somewhere where they can't see each other so when she gets up to leave, he's trying to find rerasons to move from the place where they lay together. and he's begging for one more night to be with her again. for whats happening to me, its in the reverse point of view. but its all the same right now. conor, i love you.. |
Bright Eyes – Happy Birthday to Me (Feb. 15) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
im not really sure. but i think its about a guy who feels totally lost and is planning on suicide. but calls his ec girlfriend. or someone he still somewhat loves. but he needs to talk to her and he trusts her "thank you for talking, cause i needed to somethings just can't wait" it sounds like, in a way she saved him. from himself, or whatever was hurting him |
Nirvana – Something in the Way Lyrics | 17 years ago |
well i dont know if im right or not. but what i got from this song was that. he was trapped. whether it be literally or figuratively. But to me, he was trapped in his head. and all the animals are his thoughts, thoughts like wild animals, hard to hold onto for even a moment. so hes trapped in a place in his head where he's trying to figure out who he is and why he is that way. When he says "living off of grass and the drippings from the ceiling" to me, desribes his outlook on what he looks like on the inside. cracked walls. very morbid, and cruel. "its okay to eat fish cause they don't have any feelings" might be his way of saying that just because something might not hurt, or have an effect doesn't make it right. Just because he sees himself as lost, as something being in the way of whatever it is he wants to avhieve or be, doesnt mean that it doesn't hurt when someone else sees him like that. im not sure if that made any sense, im probably just rambling on now. sorry:) |
Tegan and Sara – Terrible Storm Lyrics | 17 years ago |
there was a terrible storm and you were wearing all our coats so much bad things were happening, in a relationship, most likely. and she had nothing to protect herself in the end. but she goes back to how it was we buried in the snow I kept warm inside of your clothes but then she goes on to say how he's moved on. you never missed a thing probably not missing another chance, at anotehr relationship. |

Tegan and Sara – You Wouldn't Like Me Lyrics | 17 years ago |
i think its about a girl, who doesn't really know who she is. shes really unhappy "theres a war inside of me" and she likes a guy, but shes really insecure about it, because she wants to be happy with who she is, and to be with someone. "when i'm sleeping alone and i wash the windows outside in hopes that the glare will bring you around" but shes too afraid to do anything about how she feels. "i can't say that i'll love you forever. i won't say that i'll love you forever" its just how i feel. and its weird how a song can describe a situation so perfectly. |
