The Antlers – Putting the Dog to Sleep Lyrics 10 years ago
My mistake, I just got it, from listening to the next line. Too torn to beg to be let back in. Sorry.

"Tendons too torn to BEND." To beg doesn't make any sense either.

Stars – Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It Lyrics 11 years ago
Already love this song! I kind of relate it to what Kurt Vonnegut says in Sirens of Titan: "A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved."

Regina Spektor – Genius Next Door Lyrics 14 years ago
I personally believe what juliaspaperbags said about drowning. But I think the genius was committing suicide, hoping that in doing so he would find the antidote to his problems in death. An orgasmic relief to the burdens of his dull life. I think he might've been a genius in school, but that didn't work out, or it went awry, since he knows german fairy tales but is also high and bussing tables. I think the porridge is just a reference to the idea that the lake is now heavy and think with his death.

The chorus I think refers to that idea of constantly waiting for something better, and never doing anything yourself, except maybe giving up to get to it quicker. She clearly doesn't agree, maybe she saw something in him. I personally prefer that to the idea of her being sarcastic in calling him a genius.

Imogen Heap – Half Life Lyrics 14 years ago
??? = But for the surplus who loves,
what's to become of us?

I love this song so much. I think it gets all the emotions right about unrequited love, or love that's just not quite equal between two people.
