| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Road Trippin' Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I like the line "these smiling eyes are just a mirror for [the sun]" To me, it's an alternate way of looking at the value we place on ourselves as individuals. We look out from our eyes and see the world as though we were the center of it, and as though the world revolves around us. We are the main character in the story. But in this, our eyes are so much more insignificant. Simply mirrors for the sun. It's humbling- but not debasing. I think the intent is not to say that we are worthless, but to say that we are small. Juxtaposed with the rest of the song, we need to let go because we are small and not significant, and must make the most of what we have. For them, it is hitting the surf. For another, it might be devotion to ones family, or religion, or the environment, or cooking if they love that- but do what is important to you, and remember your eyes are just a mirror for the sun. |

I think it's about drugs. Because every song is about drugs. |

| Audioslave – Like a Stone Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Well, I take it to be a guy, so obsessed with someone dead, that he is just waiting for his own death. He doesn't care about religion, who is right or anything, just that he meets this person (most likely a girl?) again in an afterlife. Waiting "in your house" could easily mean that he's just... I don't know how to say it... staying with her? Room by room, he's going through all of their past together. No idea what the bit about the sky and ground means. |

| Our Lady Peace – Not Enough Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This is my favorite song, and it's by my favorite band. I love the way every piece of music just goes together perfectly... sometimes I just listen to the music and let the lyrics fade into the background like any other instrument. It sounds like he's talking about a change in a person. Like, this person is climbing over a new obstacle. Maybe it's depression, or disease, or hard times, but they're changing and he's trying to be there but I guess "it's not enough" because it's not something that is in his hands. |

Where did you hear that, derberts? Anyways, cool enough info, if it's true. One of my favorite songs on this CD. Awesome. |

| Pulse Ultra – Despot Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Aye, this song really kicks ass. Too bad practically no one knows about it. It's the only thing I've heard by Pulse Ultra. | |
| The Tragically Hip – Ahead By A Century Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
This song rocks, man. So few people know about them here in America, but it seems like if they do, they love the Hip. Anyways, I get this being about nostalgia (I love it), but what does anything thing "I tilted your cloud, you tilted my hand" means? |

This song does kick a lot of ass. I'll try to discern the missing lyrics a little later. Maybe. |

| Trapt – Headstrong Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Er... so, here's the breakdown. This song is just another song about angst. Typical. BUT, I like it. So what if it's not a philosophical enlightenment? It's MUSIC. What counts is that it's enjoyable. Now, if you don't like the meaning, oh well. If you don't like the music, don't post. And people shouldn't tell other people to "go get an education" when they can't fuckin' spell "interpretation" right. |

| The Goo Goo Dolls – Dizzy Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| I like this song... do you think I'd like the CD? I usually like bands along the lines of Incubus, Our Lady Peace, Red Hot Chili Peppers... do you think this CD would be a good deal for me, then? Maybe I'll buy it if it is. | |
| Lostprophets – Last Summer Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Yeah... everyone basically has it right. Maybe my favorite song on the CD. It's very sad, especially "And watch the fire as it slowly burns away" I think almost everyone knows that feeling, just watching a fire, sitting, and it's very strong. |

Sweet song, the whole album rocks. I think it's true, it's about media. And it's not just America, either. Really, the media may play a bigger and more poisonous role in general in America, but it's got a hold on every modernized country. And if it's not the media, it's something else. We cling to things to make us dumber :) |

| Breaking Benjamin – So Cold Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
First off, it's "wise men wonder while strong men die" not "while stuck in time" I love this song, makes me think of someone, but here's what I get out of it. This seems to be almost apocalyptic, sort of like... false heroes, but they don't have it in them. But I like to think of it more as metaphoric- our world, right now. How most people are so empty, stupid, not real. Pawns of society, so to speak. The hollow heroes are people who could have been real, but failed to survive as their own person. My favorite line is "You're so cold but you feel alive" It's awesome. I think that in this world, where so many of us are untrue to ourselves (sorry to turn this into a philosophy) and the only real way to get ahead is to shove all that down... he's the real person, and he loves a girl, and this girl has been pretending to be part of society for so long that she's cold, just like it... but he knows she's alive, or real, and he wants to rip her away from the world she's in (in this land of make-believe, dead and dry), and make her show him how she's not that invincible and unemotional robot that society is (show me how defenseless you really are). The strong men dying means like, the person who lives for himself (you know, like Emerson) can't live in our world because it's too hard, so they 'die'. The wise men wondering part... well... what do wise men do but wonder? :P Anyways, I just love this song. I hope people got what I was saying... :) |
