Beirut – Elephant Gun Lyrics 14 years ago
I used to think of this as a metaphor of inmigration or discrimination and all the feelings they may bring, but after reading some comments i'm confused, it also sounds like a description of a catastrophe...
It's a great song anyways, i love zach's lyrics they are all so deep and sweet =)

Beirut – Carousels Lyrics 14 years ago
for me it's like a goodbye to his childhood or maybe to innocence... i think of carousels as actual carousels.
but then verse three i think it sounds like he regrets losing it, the hand being his as a child if that makes any sense...
i would love to hear more opinions though =)
