Coldplay – Viva la Vida Lyrics | 8 years ago |
@[AYesso:4787] i have been toying with the king louis xiv idea. I feel that that the line Once you go there was never, never an honest word. That was the when i ruled the world. - has some meaning to the song either as a man singing to a lover brother or even mate the former king his farther before the old king was dead. That was the end to honesty and thus the end to his kingdom. |
London Grammar – Nightcall Lyrics | 8 years ago |
@[Lewjay1993:4408] I find this a good idea as this is a cover from Kalvinsky which is featured in Drive - where the protagonist and lead female have a similar relationship to which you describe and it ultimately ends it travesty. |
Bon Iver – Skinny Love Lyrics | 10 years ago |
i believe that this song is about the aftermath of an argument between a couple, people of already said how "skinny love" refers to the love being strained or weak. with it being skinny which people can connect with being underweight and unwell. This is partly why i feel it is about a fight they may of had you can find with the second line "Pour a little salt, we were never here" - trying to convince the love that if if they just look past this fight then they can get back on track and thus no longer need to fight and everything will be fine, i also believe the third line works with this idea auroral84 on October 08, 2013 said a veneer is an cosmetically enhanced tooth so the person must be spitting blood this could be metaphorically by having such a row has caused their own mouths to bleed... showing how much damage is being done by fighting with the second part of the first verse you can also see that he has said he has had enough so she can "cut the ropes", however right in the moment neither one wants it to really happen hence when the order is tall and this is him changing his mind through fighting he wants it to last an extra year however in the moment he wants to fall or fail. with the first part of chorus he has told his love what to do. showing that if she (or they) is patient or fine then it will be better however with the second part of the first chorus it goes one to suggest that he won't ever make it right "in the morning i'll be with you, but it will be a different 'kind'" showing that even if he makes it back to her it will still be different it goes further to show how he will fail by stating he'll have all the tickets but she'll own the fine implying that he will just end up owing her more or making more heart-ache. more or less i feel that this song has many angles to it, there is i feel a clear link to an argument then just a break up maybe it is what caused the break up as she may of listened to what he said rather than what he felt (the first verse has this juxtaposition with what he feels being the first part and the second being what he says) the last chorus shows his last efforts to get it right "and all your love is wasted, then who the hell was I?" this shows his feeling of be inept as if she wasted her love for him he clearly wasn't worth it where he feels he was, however with each thing she says he sees his own faults and is thus "breaking at the britches at the end of all your lines" and thats my two pennies on the topic.... |
