| The Strokes – Life Is Simple In the Moonlight Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
The wait is over. Official Lyrics: Animals on TV singing about some pain that they once felt There's no one I disapprove of or root more for than myself I wanted to pretend that it was better, better, better on the phone Didn't wanna tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous and alone So we talk about ourselves in hell To forget the love we never felt All the old jokes that work so well Universal truth was a moment's lie Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Get out of the way Got to get to climb your tree in the light of the living ghost I see She sees her father in that old man's eyes while secretly he stares at her thighs Animals on TV singing about some they felt at some point I didn't wanna tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous, what's the point? As I watch the velvet drapes appear And the door was closed for 40 years As we hide what we don't want to hear As we hide what's really in our ears He is coming from a part of hell Where lightning blue eyes don't go down well He can tell that we're oblivious It's addiction of routine as well Making fools out of the best of us Making robots of the rest of us Innocence itself in America today Is a crime just like Cornel West might say Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Get out of the way Source: Lyrics sheet by Julian Casablancas http://goo.gl/fiqv0 |

|
I guess it's about someone who works in the military and has a girlfriend. It's cheesy, I guess, but it's about having to leave a loved one behind. -Julian Casablancas. |

| The Strokes – Games Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| They had guitars on it originally, but it just sounded better to the band without them. There's a lot of weird stuff on that song, most of the weird sounds are drums that have been messed around with. The part at the end of the song is so old (Unknown 1), they've had it for about 10 years, at least. | |
| The Strokes – Machu Picchu Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
This is from Julian Casablancas: "There are lyrics about keeping yourself busy: 'I'm just trying to find a mountain I can climb", and Machu Picchu is the Inca sacred place in the Andean mountains of Peru. So the title started out as a joke, but then that joke just started to seem fitting." He's right. I'm from Peru ;) |

HAHAHA! I guess this is the first comment, right? Well, I have to say this is one of the best Straight Forward Lyrics of all time. It's like I'm singing that song in this very little moment with the same level of intensity. Just beautiful. |

'Superfriends' comes from an extremely rare demo cassette recorded in summer 1995. Sounds very rusty and brings me back to many memories... |

| Muse – Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I broke up with my girlfriend about 1 month ago, for me it feels like when you are singing this song is pretty much how I feel right now and how Matt felt the same 'cause actually the song was written when Matt broke up with his girlfriend about 8 months ago or something, and he pretty much wrote that song immediately after that. Matt said that it was like that song was reflecting on that moment when you first get with someone and everything feels like it's going to go on forever and it's bit of like a true love sentiment. When he wrote that song it was quite heavy because it was like a memory of what it used to be like when you used to think that way but now obviously it's the complete opposite of that when you break up. When he's singing that song, he's kind of coming from that perspective... Just like him in that time, I feel the song is representing a difficult period of my life right now until I might be changed eventually. |

| Radiohead – Lurgee Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Lurgee is amazing. I believe it is about of being lovesick after you break up from a relationship. It doesn't has a positive lyrics at all. Even he's getting better but he loves her more than ever. |

| Radiohead – In Limbo Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I agree with Anulith and LaDolceVita007 In Limbo means that all your consciousness drifts away. Also, the lyrics hints this state of mind (believing you're never going to come back) only exist in a period of time- one day you'll return after overcome a confusing experience. |
|
| Mew – Hawaii Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I like the part "Good luck trying to be someone/If you make it then you've won/You'll grow up to be someone". Ironically, it looks like the person in mention is never going to change at all, keeping it all the feelings and memories, so eventually he/she will be the same person as at the beginning and realizes his/her failed attempt to forget what he/she had before. It applies perfectly for long relationships that broke-up although love was hided for a while. |

| The Walkmen – On The Water Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I can't believe that anyone give a comment about this song yet! In fact, this is my first comment. I've been reading this page for a long time and now I think it's time to make my humble contribution. I have to say every time I hear this song I almost cry, maybe because since I saw the official video I realize it connects the lyrics directly and that's why I think express the meaning of genuine love. After a tragedy the days are long although you will always remember that you'll never leave those deeply feelings and keep it forever. |
