| mewithoutYou – February 1878 Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Nevermind, solved my own question. The tiger is able to escape, but does not and stays in his cage as well...as he is a creature of habit (just like human beings). | |
| mewithoutYou – February 1878 Lyrics | 12 years ago |

| Death Cab for Cutie – 405 Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I think 405 = a confusing relationship that seems to be going in circles...never really going anywhere. "stake down...better than this" is simply saying it's amazing now, but it's not changing and it never will be anything more. | |
| Death Cab for Cutie – Death of an Interior Decorator Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I don't think it's straightforward "about" the movie...Ben wouldn't do that...but... I think that it's about a woman who had three daughters (obviously), and she raised them and they all grew up and left the house. After this, she started getting old and her husband found no use in her anymore and decided to cheat on her with another woman, all the while she works and continues life. Eventually, the man marries the woman and all the children at there, and the youngest disagrees with it. I think the "broken vase" is metaphorical here, talking about the new woman breaking up the once beautiful family. The woman realizes what is happening but it's too late, and she decides to end her life. "And it felt like falling in love again" is simply saying that the feelings that the woman is feeling are new, just like the feelings of falling in love are. |
