| I can't beleive no one has commented on this song yet, its one of the most insightful songs ever written, this site really needs more Dylan fans. | |
| Dispatch – Past The Falls Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I definatly think this song is about jesus. I consider myself and atheist, but if there was ever a song that make me consider believing in God, this is it. | |
| Dave Matthews Band – Seek Up Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This song is about how people choose not to see how greedy they are, some of it is sarcastic, but most of the lyrics support this theme... | |
| Dave Matthews Band – Sugar Will Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Judging by the verses id say that my interpretation is wrong, but going by the chorus it seems to me that he could be refering to drugs, they make you feel good, but if you do it too much and reach the point of addiction then you regret ever starting basically i think this song exemplifies the phrase "everything in moderation" |

My opinion: This song is about becoming an atheist. |
|
| Kenny Chesney – She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
I dont agree with either of you i dont like country not because it sounds bad, but because the only meaning in the songs are shallow and written for rednecks, they are not insightful and i really think its stupid that people wouldnt aspire to being anything but a hillbilly farmer on a tractor, i respect farmers because they do what makes them happy, i just think that country music listeners would get more out of life if they tried to do something with it. by the way, acccrazy, those bands you named are just as bad as country, being stylishly angry is silly, aaron carter is just a body, he doesnt write anything and his voice is made better by computers, all those punk-pop bands suck ass, they piss me off more than country artists. these are my thoughts and im not trying to force them on anyone else, id be happy to argue with someone that wants to contact me on AIM or through the message board |

| Dave Matthews Band – The Dreaming Tree Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| seems to me that this song is describing how there is so much truth in old beliefs such as those of the native americans and natives of south africa (where dave grew up) and how technology and social progress has erased their ideas by destroying and assimilating these ancient culures | |
| Blink-182 – Stay Together for the Kids Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| anyone whos parents have gotten a divorce should be able to relate very deeply to this song, i know i can | |
| Dave Matthews Band – The Last Stop Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
This song has one central theme - It is meant to speak out against war and violence in general. The references to religion and Jesus are used only to back up the main point. He uses religion to back up his point by showing how much people try to justify war with ideas such as "the end justifies the means" ("War/ The only way to Peace/ I don't fall for that"). "Gracious even God/ Bloodied the cross/ Your sins are washed enough” - This section is written from the point of view of someone defending war by the idea stated above: arguing that violence is necessary (Jesus died to save us). "Your sins are washed enough" - suggests that God forgives those who do evil things with good intentions, and in order to achieve a good goal - ("Then say forgive me, forgive me"). "The chosen one" is not Christ; he is referring to the listener. Dave is accusing us of trying to force are views and customs upon others. "You're righteous, so righteous/ You're always so right" - This sarcasm, he is trying to say that we each think that we are always right. MISC. "Here there is more than is showing up/ Hope that we can break it down/ It's not so black and white" - This is trying to tell people that they need to keep an open mind and be able to adopt the point of view of others and try to understand them rather than reject them. Specifically "It's not so black and white" is suggesting that we often see our own views as absolutely right, while regarding opposing views as absolutely wrong. "Mother's cry/ "Is hate so deep/ Must a baby's bones/ This hungry fire feed?" - This is a reference to war; it describes how the desire of some to fight requires the lives of young men. The "baby" is a young man that is being sent into war by the choice of someone else. P.S. This is entirely my opinion. (Sorry about the length, I tried to be thorough.) |

Hey, my love, you came to me like Wine comes to this mouth Grown tired of water all the time You quench my heart and you Quench my mind --my god... this verse is amazing, describing a longing for something that has finally been satisfied, makes me feel like im satisfied |

The needle Make my great escape I seem caught in time My head leaves me behind Body fall cold And I see heaven --seems to be describing an overdose... what an amazing way of describing death... |

| Chevelle – Closure Lyrics | 21 years ago |

a couple of lyrical corrections: As if we belonged To some PRECIOUS pure dream Cast off Two sided time Your reasons can't hurt -- doesnt sound like he is saying "reasons" at all, though is does make sense those are just my thoughts |

| Ludo – Hello, My Name Is Your T.V. Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
excellent song, any band that can use lyrics like these and make it into a kick ass song has to be pretty good. If you cant find the meaning of this song by yourself then you dont deserve to know |

| Nirvana – The Man Who Sold the World (David Bowie cover) Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
ok, david bowie's version sucks ass... my opinion: The man who sold the world is himself, --"You're face to face With the Man who Sold the World" he is looking back on a decision he made long ago and is now regreting it. He left his home to become a star and lost touch with all of his friends whom he now misses... --"I laughed and shook his hand, And made my way back home" thats just a possibility, i think that reggert's interpritation is also very good |
|
| Hoobastank – Unaffected Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
maybe a song about a girlfriend whos parents didnt approve of him... "Before they even saw my face They knew that I was not the same And decided I was not the one for you, For you" "And who should I be, When they're judging me" |
|
| Sparta – Glasshouse Tarot Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
it seems to me that it is about losing someone you love but at the time were in a fight with, and then having to live and regret it, you begin to hate yourself for being mad at them... "I'll probably be gone the next time too in a corner in a shadow I sit self-obsessesed too busy, too important to say goodbye This regret, it kills you'll never forget take the time this time to say your goodbyes" |

| I think they are screaming Isolation, before i knew anything about joy division i thought they were screamin Our Salvation, but that doesnt really make sense now does it | |
| Linkin Park – Wth>You Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Corrections: No, I won't just sit here and wait, While you WEIGH your options, You're making a fool of me, No, I won't let you take me to the end, Of my rope, while you burn IT, And torture my soul, Sorry to be so picky, but I know you value having the right lyrics and this is my favorite part of the song so i thought I'd let you know. |

yet another break-up song... it is still an excellent song, one of my favorites |
|
| Breaking Benjamin – Home Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| hmmm a song about the wizard of oz... listening to it without the lyrics makes it seem like there should be an underlying meaning but i cant find any.... great song anyway, i think its cool that they could take a song with these lyrics and make it as kick ass as they did | |
| Thursday – Marches And Maneuvers Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
I think this song is speaking out against abortion, "we've synthesized a compound to treat this conscience, it's: one part loss, one part no sleep, ..." abortion is effective but it also causes all of the things listed in the "one part" lyrics. |

| Chevelle – Until You're Reformed Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| this song is sarcastic, it stems from dislike of lazy and self-centered people, and most of all, dislike of people who complain. | |
| Sparta – Cut Your Ribbon Lyrics | 21 years ago |

| Hed PE – Crazy Life Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| this song is about life spinning out of control - "crazy life" you can tell that he enjoys the crazy life but in the back of his head hes kind of worried about it - "i wonder how long this kinda shit can last" | |
| Blindside – Coming Back to Life Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
this song is about falling in line and joining the crowd, we lose all of our individuality by trying to be like every one else, "coming back to life" is a metaphor for breaking away from the crowd and being yourself, he feels himself falling back into line but then breaks out again thats what i thought at least |
|
| Thursday – Streaks In The Sky Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
one of the most amazing songs that i have heard in my life... i dont like it when people post just about how much they like a song... call me a hypocryte but i have no idea what this song is about all i know is that when i listen to this song i feel something that nothing else makes me feel i have never heard an artist put this much emotion into his work, its overfloaing with his feelings and you cant help but submerse yourself in them i felt like shit five minutes ago but then i turned on this song and i completely forgot about it, its a 4 min vacation from everything i dont want to think about. |

| Saliva – All Because Of You Lyrics | 21 years ago |

Great song... Apparently about a relationship that is starting to spoil, obviously there is still love, and most of all devotion, and yet he is begining to despise the things she is doing... suffering from a broken heart |
