moist – Kill For You Lyrics 17 years ago
i think this is about trying so hard to be with someone who acts like they want to be with you but in turn they really dont. you'd do anything for this person, but they dont do anything in return and act as though there was never anything 'promised' between the both of you.

Indigenous – Things We Do Lyrics 19 years ago
hes thinking back on times he's had with a girl that bring him happiness. things went wrong between them and they are both, in a way, comfortable where they are at now. he thinks things should have never gotten to this point and wishes he could go back to where they were but cant at the same time.

Mark Lanegan – The River Rise Lyrics 19 years ago
he's comparing the river to a girl that he had feelings for. she continues to drift away from him (the river rise, she's a mile high) and he cant get through to her to show his feelings to her and there is nothing else he can do but cry.

moist – Dogs Lyrics 20 years ago
sounds like he's on his way to look for the girl that he longs for. even though she hurts him when hes got other things to deal with(I can't believe while these dogs are at the door, honey
You came to take apart what's left of me), she gets the best of him over and over again, though he cliams she hasnt at the end of each refrain.

The Moody Blues – Your Wildest Dreams Lyrics 20 years ago
jbaronde and TasChiBandGirl hit it right on the head. he remembers the great times he once had with a girl. he remembers intricate things about when he was with this girl. he remembers music from the times he was with her and often wonders where she is now and if she still thinks about him too. man can i relate to this one, as cheesy as that sounds.

Screaming Trees – Dollar Bill Lyrics 20 years ago
it seems this song is about him being torn between his girlfriend or staying with his mom. he chooses moving away with his girl and he hurts his mom. "goodbye mama, we've taken this too far" "i dont want to hurt ya" lead me to believe its about that. this song holds precious memories for me, not dealing with the lyrics, but just memories of what was going on in my life when i first heard this song.

Matthew Sweet – Time Capsule Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is obviously about him thinking back on days he had with a girl while they both were into eachother. Time has passed and they have grown apart, and he keeps those good times as a "time capsule" of when they loved eachother. He says "lets dig it up.." because he wants to relive those days.

Failure – Stuck On You Lyrics 20 years ago
its a metaphore using music about a girl he cant get out of his head. images and movies keep playing over and over in his head from when he was with her. when he was in the car with her or at the bar or everytime he's on the phone he remembers talking with her.

Temple of the Dog – Say Hello 2 Heaven Lyrics 20 years ago
although not about Layne Staley of Alice in Chains, this song could almost be about him after his passing in 2002. Its a sad, yet comforting song dedicated to Andrew Wood, but can be for anyone really.

Jerry Cantrell – Siddhartha Lyrics 20 years ago
i looked up the word siddhartha online and it has something to do with the buddist religion. Siddhartha apparently lived through the good and bad things in life. Jerry is writing about how he has experienced the good and bad in life. "Happiness and black both known, much learned" He states how he his experience has taught him lessons in life. He uses him as inspiration and looks for a better day ahead. This is a great song to listen to when times are rough whether it be relationship trouble or any general life problems.

Teenage Fanclub – The Concept Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is telling a story of a girl he once loved, but treated bad. he is saying how he didnt mean to treat her bad, but you get a sense in this song that its too late. the end guitar solo is so moving, you know right away how he is feeling when he wrote this song. the emotional outpour is amazing in the last half of this song.

submissions
moist – Believe Me Lyrics 20 years ago
i see the suicide meaning in it. could it be becuase of someone whom he loved, but doesnt love him back? so to forget her, he burns the pictures and notes he's wrote to her to try to forget, but cant so he thinks of suicide as the final solution to get her out of his head.

Alice in Chains – Down In A Hole Lyrics 20 years ago
THIS IS NOT ABOUT DRUGS. this was written by Cantrell about a girl. and the album Dirt was not all about Layne's drug problem. There are relationship songs, a vietnam song and a song for Andy Wood of Mother Love Bone. Why must people always automatically throw alice in chains's songs as "drug songs?"

Alice in Chains – Head Creeps Lyrics 20 years ago
this is what i love about aic music. the meanings can take on different things. its genious. i'm sure you guys are right on in the most part, but i see this as another relationship song or an attempt at one. it sounds to me like a girl leading him on only to slide him to the side and slap him in his face again. its driving him crazy and he wants to get away(one day my plane leaves), but he is like her puppet on a string. he realizes that he is at her command.

Alice in Chains – Frogs Lyrics 20 years ago
this to me is about a friend that you trust that goes and does things behind your back, yet at the same time tries to help you with stuff you know hes doing to you.
"Are you like me, confused
All included but you"

he pretends to be know how your feeling when he is purposly feeding you lies.

submissions
Alice in Chains – Put You Down Lyrics 20 years ago
this is obviously about a girl he cant stop thinking about.

"Heartbreaker, feelin' alright" -definatly a girl, not drugs.

"Honey I don't need you
I just can't put you down" -again, NOT DRUGS

not every alice in chains song is about drugs. they dealt with everyday problems aside from drugs just like all of us.

Fleetwood Mac – Man Of The World Lyrics 21 years ago
this is about being a man who has everything he could want except the love and companionship of a woman.

Alice in Chains – Again Lyrics 21 years ago
i this this could be interpreted as someone he calls his friend that is stealing his woman away from him and this song represents the pissed off/hurtful feelings that is felt. this line makes me think its about that: "you're weak will wont help her heal her heart."

Chris Cornell – Seasons Lyrics 21 years ago
its about not being able to tell the person you like your true feelings. you get lost behind the words you want to say to them and time just keeps on rolling by all the while you cant say what you want to say. he is constantly being reminded of his lonliness(naked floor is cold as hell.......it reminds me)

Alice in Chains – Confusion Lyrics 21 years ago
this is about the head games men and women play with eachother. how no one ever gets ahead in doing so because one person is always hurting or confused in some way but will always crawl back to them.

Alice in Chains – Lying Season Lyrics 21 years ago
Its about being amongst a group of liars and how they are there to decieve and confuse when all he is trying to do is move along. But he's stuck sifting through all the shit talk people keep feeding him and its always on his mind trying to deal with it.

Alice in Chains – Right Turn Lyrics 21 years ago
I think this song is about how we're always looking for that special someone but its so damn hard. He says that he's depressed about the whole situation and wants to leave the place but its pointless cause he'll still be thinking about her. He mentions how he thinks she is dealing with the same thing and how it aint right that they should both be going through this personal pain and anguish. This is where the song shows its full meaning...the end part, i believe he is saying that after trying to hook up with this girl again, he realizes that he was only drunk or high and she was really only playing with him when he thought something meaningful was between them. So now he's left looking like the fool for going after her. He gambles on calling her, but she totally blows him off and he falls flat on his face and into the fire.

Alice in Chains – Am I Inside Lyrics 21 years ago
Another song I can relate to so much. To me, its about not having someone plain and simple. You may keep telling yourself that you're better off free, but in the tough times you realize that it sucks. "black is all i feel so this is what it feels like to be free." Layne wrote the lyrics to this one himself and one of the deepest parts to the song is this line: "Surrounded by empty souls, artificial courage used. And because so, once was mine
I walk this maze alone." I think what he is saying here is since he doesnt have anyone, he's always with his friends who are just out to have fun and get laid and have no intentions of looking for that special somone, yet he is. And since he is the only one in the group who is really hurting, he has no one to talk to about it so he has to pretend like it doesnt bother him(artificial courage) but its really killing him and he has to deal with it on his own(walk the maze alone).
Another great line is this "Chaos and hate shadow me, pain it fills me up. Only one thing makes me feel, missing better half of me" I think Layne is saying that all this pain is causing him to become a bitter man and the only thing left that could make him feel at ease is having a girl(his better half).

Like I said, very meaningful song to me.

Alice in Chains – Sea Of Sorrow Lyrics 21 years ago
I think this song deals with a break up or coming to ones senses that they will no longer try with this particular girl. He's saying that he knew that she was trouble from the start "mind of destructive taste, i chose to walk amongst the waste that was your heart" but still got involved and was/is paying the price in pain. He's saying that its such a shame that a girl can get in his head and do that to him "as my castle crumbles with time...i think of you......such a crime." He says how she enjoys putting him through this kind of pain. "lines cut across my face, while you laugh at my discrace, i'll never know, how far to go, to reach that place" and how he cannot ever think of what to do to make it better. But, in the upside to this song, he gets back at her by just simply smiling at her when she argues and shows her that he wont be lead into her games any more "you opened fire....and your mark was true....aim my smilin skull at you....i live tomorrow.....you i'll not follow, as you wallow in a sea of sorrow"

I have dealt with a few women like this. It was all about head games and nothing is better than pushing back when some psycho girl tries to get in your head. That is why such the long response to this song. I can relate 100%
