Brand New – Am I Wrong? (Love Spit Love cover) Lyrics 17 years ago
i forgot to finish the last part:

(He’s getting sick of feeling like crap. “and sleep comes with a knife fork and a spoon” may represent how its hard to sleep on an empty stomach.. I know it sounds weird but I’ve read it in books before. Maybe he’s over eating and, like I said above, he’s sleeping to avoid the situation. She could be pale because she’s sad that they can’t come to an understanding.. and he wants the commitment from her, but because of past experiences she wont take the leap she needs to)

Just my opinions:

Well i talk
Too much
To myself
And i turn my back on my faith
It's like glass
When we Break
I wish no one in my place

( I partially agree with cyndil006 on this part. I think the first four line are about over analyzing situations and then going against what you believe in, because you’ve over analyzed so much, that you don’t know what to believe. To me, the last three lines represent a relationship that’s about to shatter, like glass does. He’s in a difficult situation and he’s in so much pain that he doesn’t even wish the person he hates most to feel what he feels.)


and i've seen
you don't need their seeds
when the cut goes in deep
and i'm lost in sleep

(I’m not going to lie, I have no idea what the first the lines of this means. However, I think the last line means he’s sleeping to avoid the situation.)

i can't stay
in this place
i can't stand
when the room turns round
on my fate
you give no guarantees
there's no promise
i can keep

(He’s somewhere that he can’t stay because it’s causing him a lot of pain. He thinks he’s finally understands his “fate” and where he’s supposed to be in life, and who he’s supposed to be with, but then everything gets all screwed up. The girl just wont make a commitment because of something she went through, and in reply, he’s saying to her well fine, but then don’t ask me to do you any favors.)


i can't stand
i can't see my way
i feel blind
on my feet
i can't stay too long
am i wrong?

( I think this is just showing how lost, confused and unwelcome he feels.)

goodbye, lay the blame on luck
goodbye, lay the blame on luck
goodbye, lay the blame on luck
goodbye, lay the blame on luck
goodbye, lay the blame on luck
goodbye, lay the blame on luck

(Goodbye, and then I think he’s saying don’t blame me or yourself, we’ll blame luck and call it a day. )


i'm so tired
of my mood
and sleep comes
with a knife, fork and a spoon
you're so pale
in your face
you let life
get in your way

(He’s getting sick of feeling like crap. “and sleep comes with a knife fork and a spoon” may represent how its hard to sleep on an empty stomach.. I know it sounds weird but I’ve read it in books before. Maybe he’s over eating and, like I said above, he’s sleeping to avoid the situation.)

Straylight Run – It Never Gets Easier Lyrics 17 years ago
just my opinion, its probably not right, but it's what i think:

Taking up my time again the one thing I can't stand
The coffee and the coversation never ends
When all I really need to find is one short clever line
To pinpoint my disgust it's always just too much or not enough

(I think he’s saying that he’s wasting his time. He wants to end whatevers going on quickly, but he can’t find the right words. Quick and painless, but nothing exactly comes out the way he thinks it should, so he keeps putting it off. Maybe he’s already tried to tell the person, and she didn’t understand exactly what he meant.)


And I'm overwhelmed so I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me
But it never gets easier
No, it never get easier
No no no

(He’s lying to whoever he’s with because it’s much less difficult then telling the truth. He hopes she believes him until he finds the right words. “It never gets easier” refers to lying and how its not making anything better.. it’s just prolonging the situation.)


Sink into myself again I can't hear a word you said
The syllables the sounds just aren't sentences
And all I really want to do its tear straight in to you
Explode unload a hell of insults until you finally get it
I'm sick to death

(He doesn’t want to hear what the other person is saying. He wants to completely destroy this person; however he’s better than that. So he still just keeps waiting for the moment and words to come to him or for the other person to catch on and slowly back away.)


A strong distaste for cofrontation leaves no room for self expression
Such a strain to remain so docile don't you know it all takes it's toll

(He’s still having problems making himself clear.. and he doesn’t want to hurt the person, because she doesn’t deserve it, however he cannot stand her.)


Hell, it never get easier
All I wanna do it tear straight into you

(He’s getting frustrated that she’s not understanding.)

Taking Back Sunday – Ghost Man on Third Lyrics 17 years ago
So it’s probably just me, but I don’t think this is about self injury OR suicide.
Here is my take on it:

Jinx me somethin' crazy
Thinkin' if it's three
then I'm as smooth as the skin
rolls across the small of your back
(Maybe he’s saying something about how bad things always happen in threes and how he’s so used to it that it calms him. Jinxes are often referred to as curses.)


It's too bad it's not my style
If you need me
I'm out and on the parkway,
patient and waiting for headlights,
dressed in a fashion that's fitting to the
inconsistencies of my moods
(He’s saying that he cant be counted on because his moods are “inconsistent”. He changes his mind as often as he changes his clothes.)

It's times like these where silence means everything
And no one is to know about this
(“Actions speak louder than words” and something happened that he obviously doesn’t want people to know about. Perhaps he’s feeling guilty about something such as cheating)

It's a campaign of distraction (distraction)
and revisionist (and revisionist) history, oh
(He’s using what ever he’s doing as a distraction from what ever mistake he keeps making and feeling guilty about.)

It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
It's a shame I doubt they even care
(He knows that no one else will care about what he did and he wants them to notice so that he can finally just vent and be able to admit his faults.)


But whatever I have gettin' myself into
maybe has been slicing inches from my waist
(“slicing inches from my waist” could mean that he’s really worried about something. And he’s loosing weight because its all he can think about, he doesn’t eat or sleep, etc.)

It's my fist vs. the bottle
(angry and drinking his guilt away)

And that's how bad could this hurt
or against I won't feel a thing
(he knows that what ever he’s done will hurt like a bitch or whom ever he cheated on will ignore it and let things continue as they were.)

I tell you all about it
It's just not working out
not workin' out
(talking about the anger and guilt.. )

This is why we were taught so much better than this
(self explanatory.)

This is what living like this does
(he’s driving himself crazy.)
