| Death Cab for Cutie – What Sarah Said Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Your interpretation of the song is perfect, but I do think you are missing one thing. The line "So who's going to watch you die?" is said by Sarah. In all of her pain and misery she thinks of him, and who will watch him die since he is watching her die. Hence the name of the song "What Sarah Said" | |
| Death Cab for Cutie – St. Peter's Cathedral Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Amazing. After one listen easily the best song on the album. Ben does a wonderful job of just describing that we have no idea if there is a Heaven or a Hell, and to worry our life away about it, is to waste life. This song reminds me of "What Sarah Said" and how amazing it was with a simple repeat of "so who's going to watch you die" was echoed throughout the song. "There's nothing past this" reminds me so much of it. The message is the Cathedral is just a building, and nothing more. To believe that just because an individual attended, or did not attend the Cathedral does not mean they are indeed one step closer to heaven or hell. My favorite lyrics of the song have to be: When the candle in the tunnel Is flickering and sputters And fading faster It's only then that you will know What lies above or down below |
