Modest Mouse – Breakthrough Lyrics 14 years ago
In response to previous posts, I believe that song lyrics can be interpreted in whatever way that fits the person the most. Music is art.. and art can be taken to mean whatever anyone wants. Even if Isaac did come out and say the "correct" meaning of this song or any of them for that matter, would that really take away what you thought at first? because that will always mean the most to you. It could mean something specific to the writer but they are well aware that if they put the song out people may take it differently.. we all come from different backgrounds and experiences.. and that's whats so great about Modest Mouse, that it brings its fans together to talk about deep and intellectual topics. So i do think that people should keep posting their "cute" opinions because their insights have helped me several times to determine my own meanings of Modest Mouse songs.
Anyways, about the song lol..
I always pictured it as Isaac telling a story of several different people who have to much going on, they're upside down(inverted) and that they just want something to breakthrough... whether it be their feelings thoughts the sunlight or the "atmosphere".. for something to make sense

Modest Mouse – She Ionizes and Atomizes Lyrics 14 years ago
God I love this song. and Modest Mouse. I can't think of any other band that leaves people so speechless. To love someone so much that they are your sunlight, they make you full and complete inside. You are empty when they leave. I love how Isaac is using scientific diction to explain something so un-scientific like love. So god damn beautiful

BeatJunkie08-"This is also one of my favorite Modest Mouse songs I listen to it all the time and never get bored of it!! If you don't like this song you should die!! Or at least get made fun of..."

This being your favorite song on an album of WAY FUCKING BETTER SONGS just shows you going out of your way to love something that sucks balls so your "indie" self can shine through. nawt.

Modest Mouse – Bury Me with It Lyrics 16 years ago
beatjunkie08-"I don't think it's any of that. I think he's telling us(the real indie/MM fans) that just because they're big, mainstream, on the radio, and on MTV that they don't suck. If it comes to the point where they're just another crappy pop band then seriously, bury them with it."

wow are you fucking conceited enough to believe this song was written for you? do you think isaac sits their and contemplates the destruction of his band? just go and listen to your precious LCW some more and get the fuck outta here.
