| Motion City Soundtrack – Happy Anniversary Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
This song was inspired by Justin's grandmother who had died with cancer a few years previous. The tune is written in the eyes of his sick grandma and the things she would like to say to her surviving family. The guys said that it's one of the darkest songs they've ever written. |

| Green River Ordinance – Different (Anything at All) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I just happened to hear this come up on my iTunes when it was on shuffle and it just hit me how much I can relate to this song. Leaving for college in two days, seeing my former friends leave, missing summer nights two years ago...it's all incapsulated in that song. So good. | |
| Ben Rector – The Sophomore Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
This song is so simple and I love the honesty in it. "The strength to move beyond is found in letting go." This line really hits a chord with me, I just finished high school and moving on isn't exactly easy. But by letting go we can move on. So beautiful. So simple. Ben Rector knows how to say it. |

Error in the third line. "So be kind and love your mother and your father, though sometimes they seem to bother, come my age and you'll know" So beautiful. |

| The Rocket Summer – Light Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
This song is so beautiful. "I am Yours, do what You wish I am Yours, I am Yours And I know this Whatever happens next Is in Your hands, in Your plans Nothing less Every day there is a choice And through the joy Through the pain I will rejoice I am Yours, do what You wish I am Yours, I am Yours And I know this" Gets me every time. |

| The Rocket Summer – The Fight Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Oh gosh, this song is so great. The lyrics are so enthusiastic and it's a really good reminder, I think. It reminds me a lot of my last relationship, in which it really wasn't something that I was proud of, I was falling away from Christ really quickly. When we finally broke up, it was like being that hurt and vulnerable gave me the chance for God to come find me and take me back. "Faith, welcome back it's been awhile since we hung out have you come to get me back on track? you know they didn't have to do this now" These lyrics are so perfect for this, it's like we really can fall back into our relationship with God, even if we haven't been up to our best behavior. I think it's so inspiring to know that He'll be back for you, as long as you want him here. LOVE this song, especially these lyrics! |

LOVE this song. i love his uninhibited emotion, not only in this song, but all of them. I like his correlation between a car crash and a flood of emotions. random event: my car was totaled while i was listening to this song. little weird.. :p |

| Dashboard Confessional – Get Me Right Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Wow, I'm so glad he wrote one with such an obvious religious point of view. This song is so relate-able and it give me hope to know that I'm not alone and that others are going through similar things. Ah, I love this song so much!!!! The simplicity is so calming and fits so perfectly. | |
| Holiday Parade – Walking By Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
"Even if i run right now, swore you off, I'd still come back somehow. And here I am now." So well said. I love HP and of course their obscure SoCo references...ahem, Walking By? Not so obscure..hahaha |
|
| Holiday Parade – Crimson Red Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
LOVE the SoCo references in this song...especially when "I face the waves as your currents drown me"...it reminds me of my all time favorite song Watch the Sky. (By SoCo of course!) :DDDD |

i love thinking about this song from God's perspective, that we may not see him there but he is there and he's just waiting for us to accept him. LOVE it :) |

| Amos Lee – Kid Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
probably my favorite song that he's written. so simple but it needs nothing more. "don't know how you keep on gettin' up from all those ghostly blows and all the pain that lingers deep down in the darkness where it grows" favorite lines. :) |
|
| Something Corporate – Watch the Sky Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
that's kind of ironic you say that, because so many of his old SoCo songs and TGP (Jack's) songs seemed to be about sickness, even before he was diagnosed with Leukemia. Interesting interpretation. Thanks! |

everyone has basically covered the meaning, but OH MY GOSH. i've listened to SoCo for 12 years now (i'm a local) and Andrew is so inspiring. i'm getting "Somedays, all i do is watch the sky" tattooed on my foot this winter and i've never been more excited! it's such a good reminder to just live your life one day at a time and love it, no matter what happens. AH! i could go on forever but i'm going to shut up now. SoCo and Andrew are so beyond perfect. :) |

this is auch a good reminder of God's never-ending love for us! so much of the time, we feel that we can't face him because we're ashamed, but he's there for us no matter what. :) |

| Motion City Soundtrack – Antonia Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
the album is basically his break up album, it's pretty much all about her haha. obviously, Last Night and The Conversation are about it. Off his new album, My Dinosaur Life (released on January 15th, 2010), the album is about how he coped with the breakup and how he got over it and moved on. interesting that his life story is spelled out in his albums. hope this helped you out..even a few years late :) |
