| Nada Surf – Concrete Bed Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| This song is about someone, possibly Brandon himself, who is getting older and more set in their ways, perhaps going about the same habits over and over, and they have lost sight of the fact that they are a good person. They don't love themselves anymore and are thus lonely. He says that we should just live with passion even if that means getting high--that we shouldn't do what we are told we "should" do, at the expense of living our own life and doing what feels right. | |

Some wrong lyrics on this one. HEAD pinned against the wall You'd HEAD BACK TO MAINE Find a stable WORLD I think this song is about two people with different priorities, and how Brandon is continually moving and changing, possibly out-growing someone...or, someone is growing apart from him. Also how seemingly simple life is, yet "the simple things take so many years"--in this I think he means to say, appreciate life right now, in the present moment, because you might not always change in the direction you think you are going to, or even for the better. He says, "grass is greener...right over here...", like it has taken him many years to even figure out he has something special. In the meantime he has moved on, cut his "signal chain", and so he is continually moving through life without appreciating it. I think this is something everyone struggles with. |
