| Metric – Empty Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Not having given it very deep thought yet, I would say that this song is about giving up on something, probably relationships with other people. I'm so glad that I'm an island now, contrasted with the saying "No man (person) is an island" Coughed out my heart in the last stall - The image of someone dealing with some problem all alone in a public toilet (In this case 'coughing out my heart;' coughing out her ability to empathise with people. And this having happened, having no regrets as to the new state of affairs - Now that the damage is done I never miss it at all Favourite Metric song at the moment. |

| So cheesy and happy you can't help but love it =D | |
| Trivium – Shogun Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Yeah you could be right about some of the lyrics, but about half the album is about greek mythology, and I love greek mythology so I loved the album... It's pretty badass =D Like you said. I haven't really bothered to go into the lyrics, but the recurring theme I see in the songs (same couple of songs you mentioned) is about action, my interpretation is that he says it's better to be doing something even if it's hard and it will get you killed. I support this statement with absolutely no evidence, might pop back in later to provide some evidence, but I'm too busy listening to this song atm =D =D =D |

| Porcupine Tree – Trains Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Loving this song atm... Nothing to add, sorry... | |
| Gojira – The Way Of All Flesh Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| More or less =D | |
| Dream Theater – Blind Faith Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Ledtheater9, I agree. I'd have to say this song is about blind faith in anything really, an institution, a religion... Basically about taking orders and ideas at face value without confronting them or questioning them at all... Very dangerous. But what I really wanted to do was give props to that drum fill that Portnoy does between the melodic bit and the end, right before "I don't think we let you down So come Messiah show us how how Throw us a pure lifeline I hope that you hear me Too proud to be around There's more to us than we see now" Sends shivers up my spine every time... |

| Gojira – Oroborus Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I love the symbolism of the oroborus; to me it's also a symbol of conservation of energy; one type turning into another type without being destroyed, and thus continuing in a cycle. I think it's amazing that such an ancient symbol is open to so many interpretations. |

| Snow Patrol – Chasing Cars Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This song is so shit. They play two notes throughout the whole thing. Pathetic. |
|
| Children of Bodom – Downfall Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
They closed with this at their Perth show. So fucking hot. |
|
| The Sunpilots – Spotlight in the Sun Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Spotlight in the sun shining down on me... I don't care if it's a metaphor, it's a shit one. |
|
| In Flames – The Chosen Pessimist Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Forever smacked, my thoughts exactly. This song isn't um... Too bad, but something old like December Flower beats it hands down. | |
| In Flames – The Mirror's Truth Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Much prefer their stuff before reroute to remain, but the new album aint even half bad :) Just wanted to say so, off topic, i know. |
|
| Deicide – Dead by Dawn Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Wow. You're doing this everywhere? Looks like you're the loser. | |
| Deicide – Kill The Christian Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| What you dumbfucks don't realise is that in most cases, the so called 'darkness' in metal is tongue in cheek. Call us artless you prick? There three musical genres with the most technically skilled musicians, and musically interesting compositions are Jazz, Classical and Metal (in that order). Don't bother commenting on shit you don't like if you don't like it, you fucking geek. | |
| Megadeth – A Tout le Monde (Set Me Free) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| It's hot shit when they do it live. | |
| Megadeth – Hook in Mouth Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Awesome freakin song... | |
| Mastodon – Hearts Alive Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| The drumming in this song is fucking phenomenal. | |
| Arch Enemy – Rise Of The Tyrant Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
The Intro seems to be from a movie called Caligula (About Gauis Caligula) starring Malcolm McDowell (Cat people, A Clockwork Orange)... Haven't seen it, supposed to be crap. |
|
| Arch Enemy – Bridge Of Destiny Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I guess this song is about a turning point in someone's life, I'm really not sure. I just know that the bit between the second and third verses, and the solo remind me of a circle pit somehow... |
|
| Arch Enemy – Tears Of The Dead Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Yeah pretty much | |
| Arch Enemy – Fields Of Desolation Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Actually, I think it's about living with the belief of a) Life after death (ie. Religion) b) Lack thereof (ie. Atheism) And the implications of that in everyday life. |
|
| Arch Enemy – Enemy Within Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
From what I've read above, this song might be about fear... Just my two cents... |
|
| Arch Enemy – Rise Of The Tyrant Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| The intro's probably from Caligula, by shakespeare. Not sure, but it's a fair bet... Word is that play is a total blood bath. | |
| DevilDriver – The Fury Of Our Maker's Hand Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Yeah, this song's awesome, makes me wanna jump in a circle pit... Oh, and you guys are right in my humble opinion... |
|
| Arch Enemy – Blood On Your Hands Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
New album is pure fuckin' metal!!! Arch Enemy seem to have done what Iron Maiden did with their last album, and written about war, or power struggles, but I'll have to listen to it some more to be sure. |
|
| Gojira – Flying Whales Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I don't know why but it reminds me of that Metallica Instrumental, the call of Ctulu or however the fuck you spell it. Probably because it's called flying whales, and ktulu is a giant squid or something... Heh. |
|
| Norah Jones – Rosie's Lullaby Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think this song is about suicide. In this narrative, Rosie is depressed and lonely (why the hell else would you walk by the shore all alone???), and essentially wishes she was someone else. The moon is hanging over the ocean, and has a luring, hypnotic quality associated with it (like Mrs Chainsaw said), but the sleep it's calling her to is death. And it would be so easy, because the water pull is strong... |

| Iron Maiden – Sign of the Cross Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I just thought it was about going a-crusading | |
| Lacuna Coil – Without A Reason Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Where can I get this? It's not on any of the albums... Hook a brutha up! |
|
| Lacuna Coil – 1:19 Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Well, this may be redundant on this page, but in my humble opinion, this is one of the best songs ever written... | |
| Lacuna Coil – To Myself I Turned Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I've heard at least two songs by two other bands I like about this... Retreating into a place where you're in control and nothing can hurt you, something most people can relate to at some time in their lives... In Flames - The quiet place Evanescence - Imaginary |
|
| Lacuna Coil – Falling Again Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Lacuna Coil albums are hard to find in Australia, I only managed to get my hands on the Original EP/In a reverie re-release, which doesn't have a dedication. So um... What's the dedication say. The re-release CD is pretty cool. It's all white, but if you angle it correctly it has an orchid embossed on it XD |

| Lacuna Coil – Senzafine (Halflife EP Version) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song makes me feel good XD | |
| In Flames – Zombie, Inc. Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Zombie Inc. Twin guitar solo for the win man. | |
| In Flames – December Flower Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Mmmm... Wish I'd been into In Flames back when I was still in high school... I ended up analysing Nirvana, I think... White = Purity, so the colour white could also represent the purity of nature? Just an afterthought to all this hardcore analysis... |
|
| Deftones – (Like) Linus Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I freakin' love Deftones, have all their albums, but I don't have this song!!! Where can I get it? In Australia that is... Cheers. |
|
| Lacuna Coil – Enjoy the Silence (Depeche Mode cover) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Personally, I reckon that this version is waaaay better than the Depeche mode version. But that's just me... | |
| Lacuna Coil – Stars (Dubstar cover) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Wow. It's a cover? I never would have guessed. | |
| Lacuna Coil – Aeon Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| No, the song's meant to be like that. Awesome though, right? | |
| Lacuna Coil – Senzafine (English Version) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Oh, so THAT's what it says. I wonder what it'd sound like in English, probably not as sexy as it does in Italian. Thanks for the translation :-) | |
