The Goo Goo Dolls – Tucked Away Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
This song is about suicide evident in the lines
I'll take a doctor's recommended time to get along
Since you've been gone
I'll get along oh any way at all
Mama just called and said she's tucked away
Mama just called and said she's tucked away another day
Her mama just called and said she's tucked away
Her momma just called and said she's extra sad today |

Tool – Aenema Lyrics
| 21 years ago

I just figured out that when he says "cuz I'm prayin for rain" he's not actually talking about water but instead the whole LA drowning thing is one big metaphore in which maynord states that nothings going his way so the "rain" he's askin for would be the first thing that he ever really wanted |

The Smashing Pumpkins – Wound Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
To me it sounds like an extremely unstable man that fears everything(hence the chorus(Last night I turned around
I thought I saw myself turning
Last night I turned around
and thought I watched the world ending ) which informs us that he can't even get away from his pain in his dreams, so he kinda lives a dual existance where he's constantly going from the real world but when the "wound opens" he's kinda trapped in an endless nightmare where he see's the world ending but then he wakes up and his girlfriend is thier worrying about him,

The Smashing Pumpkins – Tonight, Tonight Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
I just figured this out its about a child thats mentally retarted growing up and fitting in with his true friends whom havent always looked up to him
time is never time at all
you can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
and our lives are forever changed
we will never be the same
the more you change the less you feel
believe, believe in me, believe
that life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
we're not the same, we're different tonight
This is baisicly the kid coming to terms with the fact that his true friend aren't like him and he has to earn thier respect for them to consider him one of the guys
and you know you're never sure
but you're sure you could be right
The kid knows he could be throwing it all away when he could be hanging out with other special people
