Raein – The King Is Dead Lyrics 15 years ago
It sounds to me like this song is about the grunge scene. Kurt Cobain was pretty much the king of grunge, so when he died the whole grunge scene just kind of collapsed.

Funeral Diner – Two Houses Lyrics 16 years ago
I'm pretty sure it's about how war can turn people an emotioneless machine basically.

Ampere – Our Adventures Incomplete Lyrics 16 years ago
I think this song is basically saying that when people die, they will always still be remembered and even if someone wasn't famous or well known they effected the world in at least a small way.

Ampere – The Jailors Speak of Freedom Lyrics 16 years ago
I think it basically about rebelling with words. The last three sentences make it seem like it.

I love this song, it's seriously one of my favorites on In Defense of the Genre. I think this song has a few meanings, it's really just about how you interpret it. I though a bit diferently then what everyone else did though.

I figured this song was about a slutty girl who treated Max like crap because he was jewish. Being a christian, I know how hard it can be to be honest about your religion because people mistreat you and steryotype you. I'd say it's worse for jews then christians though, because of all stupid racist/religious jokes people make up. Here's a line for line interpretation:

Pay your respects to a greater intellect
[kind of self explanatory, pay respect to god even if you don't believe in him]
You're just a pawn, does this confession turn you on?
[he's mocking her, he knows she thinks he's stupid since he's jewish, but he also knows that she's a slut]
I know your kind; you'd do me from behind
[well, I'm pretty sure he's not talking about anal rape lol. I think he's saying that he knows girls like her who wants to sleep with him before they even know eachother, I think that's what he means by from behind]
And when everybody stares, their eyes will bare the sharpest glare
[Not so sure about this line]

Everybody knows beneath your clothes
Staring at your toes is just a pose
[She's acting innocent, but really she's just a slut]
Everybody good knows how hard you blow
Everybody knows
[haha I love this line, self explanatory]

You did me wrong, I grinned and played along
[She treated him wrong but he just pretended like it didn't bother him]
Those days are gone, does this confession turn you on?
[He's saying he won't take it anymore and once again mocking her]

I'd see you stoned
Lawnchair your gilded throne
You cut your tiny ties and now you're dangling by a line
[Hmm, not so sure but it's obviously she's not doing as well as he is]

Everybody knows beneath your clothes
Staring at your toes is just a pose
Everybody good knows how hard you blow
Everybody knows

You think you're Jesus christ
You think you're jesus christ
You think you're jesus christ
You think you're jesus christ

You're not my jesus christ
You're not my jesus christ
You're not my jesus christ
You're not my jesus christ

[Love this part of the song, self explanatory]


But the the priest molestation and the other girl theory both work too. Either way, great song. I may be wrong but I think Max is probably Jewish or maybe Christian.
