The Format – I'm Ready, I Am Lyrics 17 years ago
Maybe I'm crazy or it's the fact this is happening to me now, but I think it's about leaving school. At least, that's what this is to me:

"I fooled the crowd when i made it sound like I was more than ready." Going to college or the real world.


"I'm trying to find truth in words in rhymes and notes in all the things I wish I wrote." Yearbooks, etc., before you leave and head in separate directions.

"Don't write a word cause i wont reply and I'm not bitter, no,
it's just I've past that point in my life." Growing up.

each night it ends too soon.
you dont hold me like you used to
and your eyes look like theyve seen too much cause
its always some excuse--
too tired, too obtuse.
you look so far removed.
this time i fear im losing losing you.

m nicotine.
im a cash machine.
im the color green
and you should have seen
the looks i just received.

i need a reason to let go.
an intervention, a lullaby.
something to cure me,
please believe me.

I know it's more of a stretch to apply it to the second half of the song, but still.

Fictional – Dream of God Lyrics 18 years ago
I really like Fictional's music. The instrumental music.

However, I don't see very much meaning in their lyrics at all. It's like reading an eleven year old's angsty poetry. The lyrics don't match the natural rhythm of the song, and all it is is "state the obvious" emotions, no depth at all. It's so hard to find any meaning in that.

Death Cab for Cutie – Title and Registration Lyrics 18 years ago
The same thing happened to me as havenx8. All of the stages of my relationship with my now ex, who I was in love with, can be described with one of their songs. And this is where I am with it now.

It's ironic. I listened to the lyrics and not just the song today for the first time and started sobbing. When I got home, the prom pictures his mother sent and a letter, platonic as hell, were in the mailbox. It's easier to deal with when he isn't around, but when something comes up I'm not expecting, it hurts.

I imagine Gibbard must have felt like I do now.

Death Cab for Cutie – Passenger Seat Lyrics 18 years ago
This song gives me chills.

It reminds me dead of this one time, my boyfriend was driving him and I back to the house. It had been snowing, so everything was clear and beautiful and you could see the stars. I was wearing his jacket, and I was babbling next to him about little things - like how my town probably wasn't going to get any snow and I was so glad I could see it or how I wasn't shy around his friends at dinner. He was genuinely listening and responding and he'd look over every so often. Everything outside was so quiet. It was perfect, and I was so happy, not in an excited, loud kind of way. But in a comfortable, quiet sort of way. I hope you guys know what I mean, because I can't explain it.

That's what this song is to me.

Does anyone know where the reference Wicked's talking about it? I've read the book and a friend mentioned it, too, but I haven't seen it yet.

Beborn Beton – New Born King Lyrics 19 years ago
To me it's about the second coming and how bad humanity's become since Jesus first came. The beginning description even fits, before I even heard the whole thing it sounded like what I always thought of the setting of Nazareth.

Great song.
