Why? – Bad Entropy Lyrics 17 years ago
In la'kesh, I'll hold my breath 'til i'm blue
Until the next time I see you
.
*i'm recording the vocals in my underwear
Your shit sounds like it was recorded in a hoody on a hot day
with a fucking ball-cap, tilted to cover your right eye.
You're shit is fake, you're play acting this, this ain't drama class.
It's unhealthy, it's only boosting your high polarity*

until the hankerchief of history covers us with its
times new roman black and white post script, i will wear
lavender shirts in yellow painted public restrooms,
looking like art decco in my september complexion
and red against blue skies,
and have those pictures taken to be proof
against the dull mood of your highschool history teacher that we wore color,
that we distributed the seeds of dead dandilions
in the cement surrounded city parts,
that we let our skin soak up the sun despite the advice of modern science,
that we sometimes wore our hair long and let it curl
and never combed it or put it in braids,
that we taught ourselves to play the pots and pans
so that we would have something honest to dance to,
something soulful to sing to,
and sometimes we had trouble seeing past our own reflections in the bedroom window,
because it was dark outside,
and the flourescents inside left shadows under our chests
and sculpted the torso to look it's friday night fittest, yeah i'm vain,
there was light here before there wasn't,
and before that there wasn't,
but seagulls still ate shallow water fish,
morning boys still cast tall shadows
and all the while the stars are slowly seperating.

(I'm not sure of the words to the next part but some of it goes...)

-not sure-
I don't know what you expect
i just want to hide my face
in the space between your breasts

In la'kesh
I've got no heart pumping my chest
-not sure-
and i crave for your flesh

Elizabeth
I don't know what you expect
I just want to leave my -not sure-
in between your lips

In la'kesh
when we meet again
i'll say hello you'll say -not sure-
and end will be end


These be songs to be listened to after I'm dead
When old women start wearing their hair gray
These are songs to help an ant to find it's shadow
Songs to bump in your moon cruiser
2060, top down, hair blowing in the absence of air.
Grooving to the quiet.

Ben Folds Five – Steven's Last Night In Town Lyrics 21 years ago
i dont think it is actually right but the way i always see the last verse is..
ben and friends have all been saying about how steven never actually leaves but have never actualy brought it up with him. then one day they are sat around with stephen and someone makes a joke about it, maybe just trying to bring it up that hes still there but in a light hearted way, and then steven just ignores the comment and starts talking about something else
thats the picture i always get anyway

Brand New – Play Crack the Sky Lyrics 21 years ago
the bit at the end i think is just supposed to be a joke 'never could be any other way' are the last lyrics from 'a day in the life' the last song on sgt peppers lonely hearts club band by the beatles. i guess they wanted to finish their album the same way

Cursive – Adapt Lyrics 21 years ago
just looking at these lyrics quickly it kinda sounds about people being in relationships that they dont really want to be in. at the start it says about the people he/she likes that dont like him/her so they have to 'adapt' and be with someone else. the "nobody wants to get left in the past" is liek saying nobody wants to be left on the shelf.
i dunno..

Cursive – Butcher the Song Lyrics 21 years ago
if you read the stage directions in the booklet it lays this song out much better. his lady friend knows that when they have a argument or whatever it always turns up in tims songs where she feels she gets made to look like the bad guy. tim goes on to say that its hard because thats what the fans want to hear. i dont understand the whole butchers knife thing though
anyone?

Cursive – Nonsense Lyrics 21 years ago
this song sounds like its about how he gets fed up of writing about the same things over and over again but its just what comes out when he writes.
"my mouth is my own bear trap I keep setting and stepping in" it could also be sang to his lady friend saying how in their relationship he could act liek he has no problems or anything and that everything is fine, but when she hears his latest songs they will be about whats wrong, i got this from the lines "we could continue on, with such nonsense to fill the days
..and we wont speak, of ugly things
but when these lyrics come out you'll come scream at me"
orrrr it could be about playing the fans what they want to hear, he doesnt really want to keep writing the same songs over and over "i really don't want to write another I'm a dick song again" but the crowd love it "but when these lyrics come out you'll come scream at me"

i dunno i think its the second one, good song anytway i especially like the cello led part of "no matter what i said, no matter what i did"

Cursive – Some Red Handed Sleight of Hand Lyrics 21 years ago
i dont have the booklet in front of me but i was sure the lyrics were " he spews out his sweet and salty sermon" and "play it off as stigmata for crossover fans"
