Green Day – Strangeland Lyrics 7 years ago
@[floridaman:16315] ps "strange being all around", when you're high on psychedelics, especially mushrooms, at least for me, when you have to interact with sober strangers they can have the tendency to seem like fuckn aliens or something. kind of hard to explain what i mean. an example is this one girl one time came up to me at the park and started talking to me and she looked like a giant marionette creature.

Green Day – Strangeland Lyrics 7 years ago
reminds me of when i would do psychedelics as a teenager. we would walk around the city high as balls and i just felt so psyched to be walking around that area without feeling any of the stress i usually feel. it was like i had discovered a new world, and i wanted everyone to visit it.
i think that's what this is about, tripping or rolling and wanting others to see and feel the shit you see and feel on it.
it would make sense if i'm rite, the bassist mike dirnt wrote part of Longview on acid.

Scary Kids Scaring Kids – The Bright Side of Suffering Lyrics 7 years ago
@[skinnyjeansXcore:15255]

reminds me of suicide. he's really upset over this chick, and he's going a little insane. life is shit for him. but "now the tables are turned", he's in control and he's ending it. on another lyrics website, it say's he's saying "i'm dying to find what's missing in my life" not "trying". i think it sounds more like that, but it's hard to tell. the cliche term every suicidal person had heard is "suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem"

FIDLAR – Why Generation Lyrics 8 years ago
(Double post, used wrong flair before, don't know how to eddit.)
This is probably about being born into Generation Y, which is a term for people born between the early 80's and early 2000s.

I think it's written in the viewpoint of kids/young adults growing up at the turn of the century who are just trying to figure sh*t out. They want to know who they are and what to do next with their lives. It's a complicated time to come of age considering the major economical, societal (things like social media, everything's on display now, "when every move you make everyone can see") and political changes placed before them.
They're criticized by the older generations, but the older generations aren't really giving them any useful insight on how to progress in this day and age, and they really want to know. "There's a secret that we wanna know, but you keep it for your own." and "How the hell are we suppose to know how to live in the 21st century?"

I could be wrong about this, but I think the last verse is about watching the news on 911, an event that really helped shape the climate GenY has had to grow up in. Almost everyone was transfixed on the television that day, kids included, and I think it was was especially shocking and confusing for the young people watching it.

"I remember the morning on my parents bed
TV screen was burning through my head
There's a bad mad man in our land
What did he do, will we ever understand?"

I feel like "bad mad man in our land" is either referencing the president or one of the major terrorists of the time.

Say Anything – Showdown at P-Town Lyrics 9 years ago
There's a verse missing


You think that you could take me now?
Your only weapon is your namesake anyhow
And if you think that you could take me now
You got another thing coming...
Think! Think! Think!


I mite be wrong on this but that's what I think that verse says
After the first chorus thing (watch me take a crowbar)

how in fame you're kind of looked at as an image or character rather than the person you really are, and people assume they know you.
