you got to be fucking kidding me, Desterado. That's one of the most ignorant, racist comments I've heard. |

| Neko Case – Star Witness Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
|
It seems to me that this song deals with the vastness of life, the good side of it and the bad. At first she describes a series of events, but then she delves into emotions like love and sadness. I think the song is simply an instrospective look at life. We live day by day and often forget to stop and think about the events that unfold around us and their possible meaning. |

Maria's ability to write wonderful, poignant lyrics always makes me smile. She focuses on the most simple things and points out the beauty in them. |

| Elliott Smith – Don't Go Down Lyrics

yeah, some of the lyrics ARE wrong.
"I fall in love with my love" should be "I fought them all with my love."
it makes more sense that way. |

| Elliott Smith – Coast to Coast Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
|
I strongly believe that this song is directed to the friends who tried to help Elliott Smith, the friends who didn't like how he was living his life. I recall Elliott Smith saying in an interview that a lot of people wish he'd live a better life. And he'd just wanted to be left alone. The lyrics "just leave it alone. leave me alone. The lyrics "you belong tagging along. And I belong in your zoo" seem to be about the discomfort he felt when people told him how to live his life. It was as if he was in a zoo, locked up, where people could watch his every single mood. And then the lyrics "I'll do what I can so you can be what you do" seem to be implying "i'll keep on living my life miserably until you can see that when I think of you, I will only think of how you try to change me. Eventually, that will be the only thing that will define who you are, in my eyes." |

| Denali – Do Something Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
yeah, this song is just beautiful. Is it just me or does the beginning sound like a bunch of men marching to anyone else? it's kinda eerie.
but anyway, I think the song is pretty self-explanatory. It's about telling someone to just fucking do something and wanting more than friendship from a friend.
and I want something from Denali......come back together again or start a new project! DO SOMETHING already. you're making all your fans feel dejected. sorry for sounding selfish. hah. |

| Saves the Day – Where Are You Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
some of the lyrics are kinda wrong, not really the lyrics but certain words.
But anyway, "If I could move just one fingernail/ I'd scratch your name on the back of my hand/ So I would never forget you again."
I love that part. That's how I feel sometimes. If I wasn't feeling so dead sometimes I would tell people how I felt about them. |

| Saves the Day – Driving In The Dark Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
yeah, In Reverie is a beautiful album. You didn't honestly believe that STD wouldn't change throughout all these years. It would have been very sad if they didn't.
anyway, I think this song is either about God or about having faith in politicians. But I really think it's about God. He refers to wars and working to earn a living and just stuff that's going on today. And then he says "But i'm driving in the dark towards you/ Not stopping 'till I catch the sunlight in my eyes." I mean, that's what people basically do when they believe in God. |

I think Chris is singing this song to himself, and I think he's telling himself not to complain about feeling sad or going crazy ("the monkey will bite") because everyone eventually does. |

| The Elected – Greetings in Braille Lyrics

|
|
wow, I can't believe that no one has posted anything about any of the songs. I love the Elected. Their music is definitely something I don't listen to everyday. And I love Blake's lyrics. I guess living here on Earth is kinda like reading in Braille; you're feeling your way through something without really "seeing." |

what? anyway. this song is beautiful. I love the guitar in this song. I think that the song says that if you don't want to experience love, then there's no reason in living. You'll just be here "in vain." |

| Pedro the Lion – Bad Diary Days Lyrics

it's quite funny how some people say "you don't know what emo is or where it originated." It's so subjective. It's kind of like saying that this is "moral" and this isn't. Everyone thinks differently and that's why no one will ever know exactly what emo is.
and yes, this is MY opinion, so please don't disregard it or say its wrong. Just defend yours. |

I think this song has something to do with ruining beauty...like catching a butterfly for a collection or something...how we selfishly destroy a beautiful thing for our own needs. I dunno... |

| Sunny Day Real Estate – Grendel Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
|
"Grendel" is such a great book. You can't just read "Beowulf." Grendel will definitely distort your point of view on heroes and stuff. It's sad how just because the warriors didn't understand Grendel, they hated him. That idea connects to read life, too. When we don't understand something, we fear it and hate it. I guess that's what this songs about: trying to find acceptance amongst people who don't understand you. You'll just eventually destroy yourself in the process. |

| Saves the Day – The Art Of Misplacing Firearms Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
|
I think the title means that if he knew where his firearms were, he'd use them on his friend. Like, he never knows where they are, thus it becomes an art. And I guess since he always misplaces his firearms, he can't defend himself physically against people who deceive him, you know? |

haha, "fucken dead." I don't know why that made me laugh. Anyway, this song is so beautiful, and the little guitar solo is, my opinion, all the emotion the song needs. but, yeah, I have to admit that chris' voice was better the way it was, but I can honestly live with him singing the way he sings now. it's not too bad. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – All Is Full of Love (Björk cover) Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
I think that there's two ways to interpret this song:
1) you think you're not receiving enough love when it is really all your fault for being so reserved: "your phone is off the hook, your doors are shut." So this song is hopeful, explaining that love IS out there, you just have to look for it.
2) Or maybe this song is meant to be sarcastic. I know that sometimes when I listen to this song, I cry because I find the words to be so untrue. It's as i'm singing the song hoping the words will come true but by the song's end, I know that they're not. |

im sure that harcorepunkforeal wasn't serious...im sure that he's trying to start pandemonium here. And if you are serious, hardcorepunkforeal, I respect your opinion. But please don't call me or anybody else who likes saves the day "pussys." I think you're one, not that you like Blink182, but that you randomly disparage people for their musical tastes. Why don't you become less provincial? |

this song is so beautiful. A lot of people hate the In Reverie album and they say it isn't saves the day and whatnot but..when you think about it, its soo saves the day...the music is still pervaded with awe-inspiring beauty. And chris is so happy right now. shouldn't we be happy for him? |
