| Bright Eyes – Sunrise, Sunset Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
my fav line : "To the sunrise and the sunset. The master and his servant have exactly the same fate. It’s a sunrise and a sunset. From a cradle to a casket. There ain’t no way to escape. The sunrise and the sunset. Hold your sadness like a puppet, just keep putting on the play." love that line, i love how he sings it so cynical. ive noticed condesending humans need to be told off in a cynical way :| |

| Modest Mouse – Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset Lyrics | 21 years ago |

| Modest Mouse – Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
i think its about judging yourself before others... and when shit happens dont feel sorry for yourself.. thats what i reminds me of "And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more So I blame this town, this job, these friends" lord knows everyone loves shifting the blame onto others... i do it all the time.. i love this song |

| Modest Mouse – Jesus Christ Was an Only Child Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| definatly about how religion is becoming a so comercialized that its pratically so distorted that it has lost all real meaning.. its like religion is just a night of halloween trick-or-treating, free candy anyone? | |
| Modest Mouse – Bukowski Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Great song.. i think its about how a religious type when told "theres no god wake up!!!" points to the fact of his/her sister or second cousin over coming a great peral and it was an "act of god" i think isaac is pointing out, hey if god is so damn mighty, if hes all powerful and all knowing then why 9 times outa 10 do we get screwd over? i think he is saying that this great divine bein is leaking into our culture far to much, where its creating this horrible melting pot of on "great ruler's" own thoughts, and its taking away choice, but when you take original thoughts and choice we all become somthing less then human. | |
| Modest Mouse – Alone Down There Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
"The flies, they all gather around me and you too I don't want you to be alone down there" two people, dead/dying flies gathering around... "The Devil's apprentice he gave me some credit He fed me a line and I'll probably regret it" it is a mortal sin to comit suicide... and if he doesnt want you to be alone down there that means two people going to a "hell" i think its two people commiting suicide together.. reminds me of Join Me by HIM in any case its a super depressing song i think |

I agree with the man on TV It's totally about blind faith. First off the "It was well intentioned but bad advice " This reminds me of when a morman comes to my door and asks me if i have found jesus.. he has the best intensions but in my point of veiw its bad advice. "Open the curtain and let in some sky it's almost half past two, and you can tell by the light Open your window, and let in the atmosphere! Let it breakthrough, oh let breakthrough..." I think its implying that some peoples blind faith is scewing the logical thought like a lack of oxygen, so open the window let in some air. "I was inverted, I mean converted I mean I don't understand." I think this implies that alot of people dont even understand what they are doing and just simply have "blind faith" thats just how i see the song :) |
