I thought the couple in beetlejuice crashed their car and died in the morning on the way back from buying some paint or something?!? "What happened in the car that night?" :s |

| Nerina Pallot – God Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
She starts off saying she never understood why god is good (understandable). But then contradicts herself in saying she believed in him? "Once my friend, I loved you as a child Kissed your face before I slept. Be in my head, and with me when I sleep" Although she doesn't say he was good then, so maybe she just believed in him as a child and then realised he was nothing when she got older. |

| Nerina Pallot – Damascus Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
So Damascus is a city in India where Nerina's mum took her when she was very young. The first verse is about actors who've lost themselves. Here is what she says in her blog: "What happens when we change, but not for the good of those we have loved so intensely once before? Envy the actor, who has lost all sense of himself and can play the role required, yet still believes he is his own authentic self." But I don't understand what it's got to do with Damascus. And the chrous is about is about depressed, miserable people who think they're living for nothing? |

| Nerina Pallot – Sophia Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
The first time I saw Nerina Pallot perform as the main act she introduced a song saying there was a fire in the building when she was at college/Uni. This may explain the first line. I think this song is about an ex-love who's going out with "Sophia". "And the sky's the same as your own do ya think of me?" Aimed at her ex love? "Now I walk the streets like a stranger in my hometown" She's lost without him? "But he changed me I'm his ghost since he came around" I'm his ghost. It's over, he doesn't see me (ie ghost) anymore. "Now I count the hours and the days in the weeks" Since they split. "And you, with your newborn eyes, Have you ever loved a man lke I love him?" Sophia's just started going out with him; "newborn". The 2nd line needs no explanation "I, can't, go without him" |
