| Krypteria – The Night All Angels Cry Lyrics | 8 years ago |
| Almost certain she's talking from the perspective of Lucifer here, and probably on the day he's kicked out of heaven and becomes a fallen angel. | |
| Within Temptation – Hand Of Sorrow Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| pretty sure this is in reference to a song of ice and fire, and the "hand of the king" title | |
| Foreigner – Head Games Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
"instead of making love, we play head games" come on. this song is about fellatio. such an easy read. |

| Dio – Rainbow In The Dark Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
listen, you have all got it wrong. a rainbow is the diffusion of light. the seven colors of the rainbow are the seven parts of a ray of light, split up. therefore, a rainbow CANNOT exist in the dark, for it is but light, split into seven parts. so a "rainbow in the dark" is something that does not exist, cannot exist, is contradictory, etc... |

| Krypteria – All Systems Go Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
this song is pretty clearly about football. he is a wide receiver on a team that is down with the clock running out, and they have 4th and goal from the 21 yard line. they apparently need a touchdown because the line "i enter the zone" is pretty clear to mean the endzone, so he's not kicking a field goal here... also "you might receive what you want" is a hint that he's trying for a reception (completed pass)... but he might drop it, who knows? great song |

| The Killers – A Dustland Fairytale Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think the reference to the pawn is that he wants to see the girl (his mom) make it to the end of the battlefield and flourish, promoting herself to a queen. In Chess, if a pawn makes it to the end of the board, it turns into (almost always) a Queen, the most powerful piece in the game. | |
| Stratovarius – Eagleheart Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I think the chorus may be referring to the guy finally falling asleep and entering a dream-state. Also, there is nothing wrong with "cheesy" metal like this; sometimes a message like this, told through the medium of metal, is needed. Besides, if metal isn't about facing down a challenge and winning, then what is it about? |

| If you look at the elements 11 and 41 on the periodic table, they are both radioactive, hence "radioactive, don't come near it" etc. | |
| DMX – X Gon' Give It To Ya Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Not a full analysis, but the lines: I've been doing this for nineteen years Niggaz wanna fight me? Fight these tears can be interpreted to mean that he has killed many people in his time. In gang culture, it is a cliche to have a teardrop tattooed onto you for every kill made for your gang in a gangfight. So, "fight these tears" is his way of saying he has many "tears," or kills, and not to fuck with him. |

| AFI – Silver And Cold Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I'm fairly certain this is Jesus singing to Judas. The reference to "silver and silent, silver and cold" refers to Judas betraying Jesus to the Romans for 30 silver coins. Pretty sure, anyway; am not a Christian. =D | |
| Ciara – Get Up (feat. Chamillionaire) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is the perfect song for a high-level laser tag music video. It's absolutely amazing and perfect. Even the -lyrics- translate directly! | |
| Weird Al Yankovic – White & Nerdy Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I'm freestyling this at my school's karaoke night. =) | |
| Creedence Clearwater Revival – Have You Ever Seen the Rain? Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I'm fairly certain "the rain" is a metaphor for bombs falling, specifically in Vietnam. It could, quite possibly, refer to any war, but the temporal significance of this song makes me think Vietnam... Compare with Who'll Stop The Rain... |

It GREATLY saddens me that I will never be able to see Nightwish perform this song live. Damn you, Tarja... This is one of the best songs ever. Simple as that. |

| I never understood how they can be considered "grrl riot" and have a male in their band, heh. | |
| The Switchblade Kittens – Ode To Harry Potter Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| And now, with HBP in canon, this song is disproven, as Harry -does- notice Ginny and -does- reciprocate! =) | |
| Poe – Angry Johnny Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Hahaha! I think emocore may be on to something... I see no contradictions to that analysis... I first heard this song when I was in 3rd grade, I believe. She seemed to have fallen off the face of the planet until I heard it again recently (forgot where) -- she's actually quite good at this music thing =) |

| Fuck the police! Yeah! Damn cops! | |
| Coolio – Gangsta's Paradise Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| The bigger meaning behind this song is about people trapped in something they can't escape, despite knowing how bad it is and that it will probably be their demise. I could go through every line and analyze it (and I have; wish I still had that document), but it's pretty self-explanatory anyway if you look at it from that perspective. He simply uses gangster-dom as one example. | |
| The Switchblade Kittens – Ode To Harry Potter Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is about Ginny Weasley and her obsession (pre-OOtP) with Harry. Harry does not reciprocate, and Ginny is hurt. The lyrics are pretty self-explanatory, now that you all know the context. Oh, and Colin Creevey is a klutzy-geeky freak, so yeah. | |
| Steely Dan – Do It Again Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
The first verse's theme is irony. The guy gets his water stolen (critical that it's WATER being stolen, the most abundant resource there is) and shoots the guy who stole it. This is a very harsh and irrational decision... The cops catch him at the border and bring him to justice. He gets his trial and all those who love and miss the dead guy are singing, cause they guy is being brough to justice. However, since he only shot the man due to him being a thief, "the hangman" (a metaphor for the justice system as a whole) isn't hanging, and they put him on the street. A man commits such a petty crime like stealing water, and pays for it with his life; another man shoots a man and goes free. Irony. The second verse is about discord in relationships. The guy finds out his girl "is no high climber" (doesn't have high standards) and finds his best (only!) friend in a room with his girl, having an affair. He lost his only friend and his girl, and he's sure he's near the end (of his rope? patience? sanity?) He rebounds with a girl who is very high maintenance. She goes crazy with him and his belongings, when in the end she's only using him. She doesn't give him what he wants (a relationship here, not sex) yet he keeps getting strung along and playing into her game (all the time you know she's smiling)... in the end, she will betray him just like the first girl did (you'll be on your knees tomorrow) The third verse is about the "bad guys" in the world. Gambling is used as a metaphor here. You swear and kick and beg us that you're not a (lying/manipulative/cheating/etc.) man, then you find you're back in Vegas with a handle in your hand. This basically says that all people have some elements of "darker natures" in them, or some form of a vice, and as much as they deny it, it is still there and they are still a slave to it "Black cards" refer to all the sins and "dark talents" you may have -- abilities you have which can get you an unfair advantage over others... However, in the Land of Milk and Honey (a common term used for Heaven) you will be judged on them. All three verses share a common theme of things repeating themself. Crime perpetuates in the first verse, a man's unlucky streak with love in the second, and cheating/vindication in the third (as a man will cheat, but then be cheated at the Pearly Gates). However, as all three verses hint, there is nothing we can do about it; the first verse, the guy gets off due to a legal loophole; the second verse, the guy is doomed to live a loveless life; and in the third verse, you may swear you have no vices, but in reality, you're "back in Vegas with that handle in your hand." What else would we expect, though, with a song titled "Do It Again?" History repeats itself. Bottom line. =) |
