| Jars of Clay – Worlds Apart Lyrics

I think this song is also about separating ourselves as Christians from the world. In the world but not of it.. sometimes we forget that and we need him to take our worlds apart, as in the two spiritual worlds. hope that's not too deep.. |

The word weathered holds more of a meaning of experience. If something is weathered it means that although its been through a lot, it has remained. He has been through a lot of trials and crap, but he's willing to fight, he chooses to win. |

This is such a cute song.. cute might not be the right word but it was the first to come to mind. It is about holding on to love when times are rough.. just a little reminder that someone is THE one, the only one. |

This is really a different take than everyone else, but I think it could be interpretted as him being in an adulterous relationship. This is the bittersweet ending to it all. |

No one's commented? wild.
This song is, I think, about a guy who has to leave his girl for a period of time but he plans to come back. We all know how emotional and insecure girls can get. Basically, he's just reassuring her. The line where he says "If you let me leave, I swear I never will", I think he's saying "just let me go do this thing, don't make a big deal out if it, I will like you more if you just chill and I promise I'll come back"
I guess its easy for me to relate to this song because my fiance and I are about 200 miles apart in our last year of college. |

| Ben Harper – Walk Away Lyrics

When I saw Ben Harper perform this song live at the Austin City Limits Festival last weekend he substituted:
"You put the shine into my sun" for
"You put the good times into my fun"
I thought it was kind of neat.. maybe he meant "son" rather than "sun" ? I have no idea, still neat. |

I don't know exactly what its all about, but you guys have nailed it pretty close, I'd say. I saw Howie a couple of days ago in Austin at the Austin City Limits Music Festival... he was amazing, so talented. He was very passionate and into it, even though it was 100 degrees and everyone was staring into the sun. My favorite Howie song by far... |

this song is obviously about being very frustrated in a relationship.. waiting. She just wants him to come and say all the things she wants and needs him to say. |

| Jars of Clay – Only Alive Lyrics
| 20 years ago

This song is lyrically and musically intended to be reminecsent of "the olden days." I think its from the perspective of a farmer type guy who has feelings for a lady he doesn't know that well, but its enough to know he loves her and wants to be with her.
I realize this is a "Christian" group and album, but I think its just a sweet story they decided to throw in there.. |

has no one ever thought this song was about a rapist? He says "I don't care if it hurts, I want control" and later says "I want you to notice when I'm not around." That's just how I interpret it.. like he's an outside watcher of this girl who everyone likes and finally he loses it and just corners her and rapes her and still wonders what the hell he's doing it for. |

| Damien Rice – Delicate Lyrics
| 20 years ago
|
I really think this song is about an affair. But, its an affair that is denying being a "love affair". He is saying in the chorus, "If it really didn't mean anything more than just being physical, then why did you keep going? Why did you make it something special?" When he asks "Why'd you sing with me at all" he's asking, why the heck would you start this thing if you didn't LOVE me.
I think being in an affair would cause you to either totally bring up the L-word or totally deny it. This song is representing the latter. And you know, I think he's also saying, all of the physical stuff doesn't matter. So what that they make out and kiss in private.. he'd rather be assured of love or commitment. |

I think this song is about how you feel after an affair. In one of Damien's other songs, Delicate, I think he talks about the same thing. I guess we'd have to ask him to find out.
If you look at it in that context, it does tend to make sense. |

| Lifehouse – Somewhere In Between Lyrics

This song, possibly, could be about a love that is almost forbidden. He realizes that it's so rediculous that he's tripping over this person. "I can't be this unsturdy, this cannot be happening."
So to try to fix it, he almost just tries to wait it out.. we all know, however, time can't fix everything. He is so unsure of this thing that he's not sure its even really happening, or if its all just made up in his head.
A personal application of the song kind of gave me this insight. |
