| Porcupine Tree – Blackest Eyes Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| So. If you have makeup on, for example eyeliner around your eyes, and you start crying...the makeup will flow down your face. | |

Anyone notice that he's not actually singing 'eyes' but 'eye'? "Swim me with me into your blackest eye", hmm..I wonder what that could mean.... |

| IAMX – Oh Beautiful Town Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I see this as a kind of sequel to Think Of England. It's like an ironic thank you "Thank you, childhood, for turning me into what I am today....you fuckers." It describes the resentment he has, and had, for the world he grew up in for making him think he could be more than he could. The final verse though seems to have a tinge of regret to it...it's like a regression to his childhood world. The words like 'insolent' and 'desperation' make it sound like he feels guilty...and I don't know why, but the use of the 'are you still awake?' makes me think his parents are dead, and he feels guilty about talking so badly about his childhood when he knows his parents did the best they could. Course, that's just me. But it fits. Sort of. |

| Anathema – A Simple Mistake Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
You forgot to put the female part in the second chorus: Feel renewed inside Feel the truth in life See beyond the sky Beyond our waking eyes And when the night is long Feel I don't belong And when the sky is grey You turn to me and say "Love is all we are, Together or apart". And then the light of day Calls you on your way Feel renewed inside Feel the truth in life See beyond... See beyond... It's never too late. |

| I'm not completely sure what the "we could be creamy together" line is referring to. It seems to change the tone quite considerably. | |
| Alanis Morissette – That I Would Be Good Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I do sort of feel like a lot of people seem to have missed the point here. The key line here is "That I would be good whether with or without you" - it's totally not what you expect the last line to be. |

| Ashes Divide – Enemies Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
A fair bit of these lyrics is completely wrong. This is my corrected version - still not completely sure about that last line, but the rest of it is pretty much right. I've done hell to my safe holding I've held my blood in such low standing I blame these sad things on me Cut a smile in my face so you'll intake some fleeting comfort Close in Contaminate your world with my touch But you brandish the weapon of passive aggression It seems like Your idea of perfect in mind I'm perfectly in line So let's be enemies To see the sun go away Would you think I'd let you in I've grown to suffer you lashing out at me To see the sun go away Don't deny my tolerance Don't take away these sad things from me And that ain't nothing You should see what I'd do to me Cut a smile in my face so you'll intake some fleeting comfort You've built a wall of beauty to help tolerate any discomfort From... Your idea of perfect in mind I'm perfectly in line So lets be enemies To see the sun go away Would you think I'd let you in I've grown to suffer you lashing out at me I will stand alone Your idea of perfect in mind I'm perfectly in line So lets be enemies To see the sun go away My idea, unless you're blind is Having you far away |

| I'm pretty sure the opening line is 'Dime todo lo que pasó', or tell me everything that happened. | |
| Placebo – The Bitter End Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Incidentally, the lyrics at the end...anyone been able to work them out? The ones someone posted up earlier are clearly wrong, but I'm having trouble getting them myself. This is what I have so far: From the time we intercepted Feels a lot like suicide Slow and sad, come in silence I walked a bitter mile Lovers seem to run around What's sicker now? Wannabes - I want out Bitter blood seeps inside Grab the jealous and sigh For your crimes It's six months' time In six months' time The mess you left will end The 'bitter blood...jealous and sigh' is pretty clearly wrong but that's asgood as I can get. Any ideas? |

| VNV Nation – Beloved Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I love the way that everyone who posts here has a different interpretation of this song. Self-inclusive. I personally see this as the memoirs, so to speak, of a dying man who returns to a significant place from his past, the place from all the happy memories he has of them together, to die. Evidence: "It's colder than before" - it's obvious it's a return visit It seems so fitting don't you think to dress the ground in white and grey?" - the obvious pathetic fallacy "Please don't ask me why I´m here. Something deeper brought me than a need to remember." - he's not here to remember - he's here to do something else, something he doesn't want to tell her about [die?] "No pain remains, no feeling. Eternity awaits. Grant me wings that I might fly. My restless soul is longing. No pain remains, no feeling. Eternity awaits." All represent dying. |

| Celldweller – The Last Firstborn Lyrics | 16 years ago |

I've recently noticed that this song has a lot of things related to Welcome To The End, and Birthright. It's making me start to wonder if there's a recurring story across the albums? |

| Argentite is a play on words from 'don't cry for me Argentina'. Subtle. | |
| Sonata Arctica – Letter To Dana Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Maybe this is just me, but I've always made the connection as the narrator being Dana's brother, hence his knowledge of what's going on with the rest of the family. | |
