| Rage Against the Machine – Year of tha Boomerang Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
I'm wondering about the lines, "'Cause I'm cell locked in tha doctrines of tha Right Enslaved by dogma, ya talk about my birthrights Yet at every turn I'm runnin' into Hells gates" I'm thinking this could be something to do with the hypocrisies of the right-wing, "birthrights" could be referring to their views on abortion, which seem to conflict with their treatment and value of the people. |

| Pearl Jam – Sleight of Hand Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Beautiful song. Regarding the ending, I think it could mean that he realizes that he cannot do or experience the things which he wants to in his current existence because of his society & environment ("And he knew realizations would have to wait"). He lets go of his dreams and desires, himself essentially, ("He waves goodbye to his self") until there comes a time when he can become himself again and experience what he wants, such as in another life or afterlife ("I'll see you on the other side"). Seemingly a critique of our society where many people live bland, routine-filled existenses and cannot achieve their full potential or real ambitions. They didn't plan or expect to be where they are presently and their lives seemed to have passed by very quickly ("Was his age by consequence or was he moved by sleight of hand?"). | |

You must mean Scott Stapp, who only wishes he could write a song half as meaningful as this one. www.creedsucks.com |
