The Flaming Lips – Gingerale Afternoon (The Astrology of a Saturday) Lyrics 21 years ago
I hate it when people say this, but...
It's, eh, rather blatantly tied in with drug use. The term "gingerale afternoon" often has to do with acid, he mentions racing through a room, capsules making him dream, etc.

Nevertheless, It's not entirely about drugs by any means. Just an addition.

The Postal Service – Natural Anthem Lyrics 21 years ago
I can't decide if he's writing the anthem to a single person or to the world as a whole. It seems likely that the "you" he is addressing is humanity as a whole; however, the "from real life" line confuses me. The target is difficult to pin down.
There is no doubt that it's a song to unite everyone... some of the specifics remain confusing, though.

Oh, and "when your judgement's on the brink" should allude to that meaning.

Yeah, an open tab is when a bar will allow you to purchase drinks under the bar's credit. Pick up the drink now, pay for it later - a concept which allows somewhat accidental ingestion of rather large quantites of alcohol.
