| Hmm, interesting analogy. Although it doesn't change the meaning as I see it, I can see how this fits as well :) | |
| Goapele – Closer Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| One of my favorite songs of all time. It's like daydreaming in a song. I love the lyrics, the melody, everything about it. When I listen to this and close my eyes it's like floating through happiness. There's a sense of calm elation. I love the song and how it makes me feel. | |
| People In Planes – Know By Now Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| To me, this song is about a guy who is in still in love with a girl who has grown cold and distant. His love for her strings him along and she doesn't respond to it or anything he tries to tell her. He wants her love to let go of him so he can be over it too. Great song! | |
| Christina Perri – Jar of Hearts Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Her voice, the words and emotion all combine to make an amazing song. It's so relateable but written in a way that its anything but ordinary. I can't wait to hear more from her! | |
| Two Door Cinema Club – I Can Talk Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I think this song is about a guy who is institutionalized for doing something socially unacceptable, possibly a rape or murder. You won't believe what I tell you, White coats and clever minds will choose- Doctors and psychiatrists choosing his fate and mental state You get a lot from this Loose tongue and arrogance- He has done and said things that aren't socially accepted It's not appropriate Don't think that this is it Now I can talk, no one gets off- Meaning people have to pay for what they do, Noone gets off (I know how you like to) Now I can talk, no one gets off (repeat) A longer sentence brings no more- speaking in terms of the time he must spend in the institution Than one that I had said before It's hard to compromise- I think this is about compromising their way of thinking to accept what he did When I see through your eyes It's just a common view- The man doesn't think what he did was wrong or have remorse I guess it's lost on you |

Never thought of it like that, but after reading your post and listening to the song again it makes more sense to me than the love version. I ran to a tower where the church bells chime I hoped that they would clear my mind- Seems like she's trying to clear the bad actions she did or is thinking about doing |

| Florence + the Machine – Cosmic Love Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Hauntingly beautiful. To me, this song is about a woman who has fallen quickly and passionately in love with a man when she wasn't expecting it. He is a man plagued by something, haunted by his past perhaps. She was trying to help him out of the dark part of himself, but in doing so she fell victim to the darkness as well. Possibly a drug problem, depression, or even a terminal illness. |

Love this song! I don't know how Armin Van Buuren is able to convey as much emotion in his beats as the vocals but he does. It's amazing! I'm in love with the way the music compliments her voice in this song. And I agree with the previous posts, the lyrics are straight forward. |

| Such a sad and realistic song. I agree with britneyspears sucks meaning to the song. | |
| Natalie Walker – Quicksand Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Brilliant and beautiful song! I also think it's about finding your inner strength after a painful break-up. It sounds like she was betrayed and misled, and even though it was hard at first she got through it with her strength and belief in herself. | |
| Sia – Breathe Me Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Such a beautiful song! To me this song is about the fragility of a person in a low point in life and the realization of their situation. They are looking to someone who they truly trust and feel safe with, for strength and support to get through it. |

What fun would art be if we all understood it and interpreted it in the same way? I agree b1gD4ddy and aperaturescience, all songs are translated to everyone differently. Even after watching a music video or reading the artist's thought behind a song, it's going to convey different emotions and minds eye visuals to each person differently. This song makes me think of the cycle of life and earth, living things in general. The birth and death of life and the environment and the choices made during the life cycle. |

| Delerium – After All Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
My last post came out all jumbled. This is how I meant to post it... I think this song is about a girl who is in an abusive relationship that has a tragic end. On the surface it does sound like a song about a girl who is just heartbroken, but I think most Delerium songs have a deeper, more thought provoking meaning. She knows the voices in her mind They tell her To leave (she is in a bad situation and she knows she should leave) She’s tired of smiling madly Until silence becomes very silently A noise in her mind (Faking the happiness to every1 around her. She has kept quiet about her situation for so long, but it's constantly on her mind) After all she has nothing inside No good to give No meaning to live The mist engulfed tonight Every single star possibly her death. (How she feels about herself after taking the abuse for so long, she's lost the will to live. I think this is a foresight into an explosive night, Stars representing the spark of life and being smothered or unable to see) After all they shared How could he simply say no After all they shared He turned away from her to go She said she wouldn’t cry That was really just a lie (He is saying no to her life. She feels like since she has endured his abuse and he has "put up" with her they have shared a lot. She said she wouldn't cry because that makes him angry or he told her not to, but she did cry. So since she "lied" to him, he turned away from her in an abusive, angry way. She knows the noises in her mind Nothing’s left but Screaming silence (She hears herself screaming, nothing is left of her inside her mind but the screaming) After all she feels numbness inside The feeling’s gone She’s upside down The pictures behind her closed eyes This time you went too far (Her body and mind are numb to the abuse and fear. She's dying and it all replays in her mind even as she's dying. He went to far with it this time and kills her.) |
