| Blink-182 – Go Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This song has alot of sentimental value to me, because I see it as in a domestic violence situation (like wiseaimee said) and thats the type of place I grew up in. His mother's with a bad guy (dad? boyfriend?) and theres alot of hate from him to her, and his mom is scared to death and she wants to leave, but theres nowhere for her to go. So she had to go back and stay there with the guy. Then at the end Mark is questioning why this is allowed to go on, because all it does is f*ck up the lives of innocent kids in the situation(in the song he references to himself as being in a world of shit), but you have to turn your back on it as that kid, because theres nothing you can do. I almost always cry when listening to this song, as pathetic as that may seem.. | |
| Nine Inch Nails – Ruiner Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Everyone has already summarized my basic thoughts on the lyrics of this song, except you didn't hurt me, nothing can hurt me, you didn't hurt me, nothing can stop me now The Ruiner thought he had power over everyone and that he was sucking life out of all of them by feeding them his lies, but Trent realizes that the Ruiner is just a nobody and that he can't hurt him, and now that he knows this, nothing can stop him(meaning that he is now strong because he knows the truth.) |

| Linkin Park – Easier To Run Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
It's easier to run, Replacing this pain with something numb, It's so much easier to go, Than face all this pain here all alone It's easier to numb yourself and pretend your pain + problems arent there, than to face them when noone is there for you except yourself. Something has been taken, From deep inside of me, A secret I've kept locked away, No one can ever see, Wounds so deep they never show, They never go away, Like moving pictures in my head, For years and years they've played His pain is his secret, because it's pain inside its so deep that nobody can ever see it, and because its emotional pain it never seems to go away. And like a sequence that gets stuck in your mind it just keeps going. If I could change I would, Take back the pain I would, Retrace every wrong move that I made I would, If I could stand up and take the blame I would, I would take all my shame to the grave If he could take back everything that made him hurt so bad, he would, no matter what the cost. Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past, Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have, Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back, And never moving forward so there would never be a past He remembers the things that happened in his past and it brings memories of things he wishes desperately to get rid of. Sometimes he wants to kill himself (letting go and never looking back) and since he would be dead, he wouldnt be moving forward so a past wouldnt be formed. (at least thats what this line means to me, my mom thinks otherwise) Just washing it aside, All of the helplessness inside, pretending I don't feel misplaced, Is so much simpler than change He feels helpless against the pain so he pushes it aside, and pretends that everything is okay, because he feels that pretending the problems arent there is easier than facing them. This is definately one of their best songs, and it holds an extremely strong meaning for me, I felt all too much like this every day growing up with an abusive parent, and now that he's gone this song is kind of like a form of therapy and helps me deal with the past. (now that you all think i'm crazy..) |
