José González – Fold Lyrics 18 years ago
First, a quick correction. He says, "I've come a long way to just fall back into line" instead of "fold".

To be honest, I'm not sure what this song is really about. Because of my currant situation, I view it as him getting back into a relationship with his ex, and he wants to make sure he does everything right, and is encouraging her to re-evaluate everything ("Taking time... Turning over every stone").

Also, where he says "Keep both feet on the ground while I change the wings" I think he's saying, "Let's stay grounded at first, but when we fall for each other again, let it be for the right reasons." Does that make sense?

The only part that I'm caught on is after that. "I promise one day I'll be coming around from my cloud to see what it's all about." Throughout the song it seems like he's saying "I need your help" or "Let's work together" and then here he's distant. Maybe metaphorically speaking about trying to keep his heart unattached because he's a little afraid? Who knows...

Elliott Smith – Miss Misery Lyrics 18 years ago
Wow. I was actually looking up the lyrics to this song to confirm what song it was, and wow. It's kind of sad how well this applies to whats going on between my boyfriend and I. We'll see if I do miss him like I say I do :/...

Inara George – Infinity (feat. Bryony Atkinson) Lyrics 18 years ago
This is such a great song! I couldn't find the "official" lyrics for it, so I ended up playing it by ear... It came out better than the other lyrics that I found for it (there were parts where it was all "???"). But anyways, one thing I happened to leave out, is that "Doesn't matter anyway, endless longing anyhow" is repeated twice, the first time with "I get here" underneath, and the second time with "I stay somehow" underneath. Enjoy!

The last verse says it all. I feel like I'm doing that sometimes myself. Kinda sad :/

Psapp – Chapter Lyrics 18 years ago
I think the second verse pretty much tells the whole story.
"Don't make me a chapter/I want to be the whole of the book." She doesn't want to be just a moment or a passing relationship with the guy. She wants to be involved with him till the end.

Other than that, I'm not completely sure about the first verse. Maybe the first line is something she was saying to her boyfriend or whoever, literally, and it got her thinking figuratively about life.

The last verse, I think, is just her saying she doesn't want anything to happen between them.

Lady Sovereign – Love Me or Hate Me Lyrics 19 years ago
I just heard this song... It's great! I'm with mot of the people when I say I'm not usually a fan of rap (and the idea of a chick rapping... Well, I just thought it'd be so much worse), but I really do like this song. I think it's cause she's got a sense of humor and kinda making fun of herself. Anyways, good song!!

Yeah, so this is a good song but I think we need to get some actual lyrics on here, haha...

Muse – Supermassive Black Hole Lyrics 19 years ago
One thing about the lyrics: Matt says moan, not mourn.

Anyways... When I first heard the song, I didn't really like it. Like a lot of other people on here have said, I thought it sounded poppier and less.... Muse-like. But, now that I've listened to it a little more, I really like it. I think that it shows how versatile the band is. Just skipping from this song to Assassin is insane! It's great that they can make a song like this, that's probably more marketable than others, and keep their genius with everything else (not to say that this song in itself isn't genius).

The Cloud Room – We Sleep In the Ocean Lyrics 19 years ago
Ah, this isn't right! At the end of the second verse, it says something like "And we'll sleep in the ocean, drown the water in our skin." I'm thinking that isn't right, but it sounds something like that. And then, of course, the song goes back into the chorus. After that, I think the singer repeats "We could be lost" or something like that...I wish I knew for sure, though...

Beck – Qué Onda Guero Lyrics 20 years ago
Whatever this song says, I love it! But what's with the "Andelay joto?" Does he perhaps mean andele?

Motion City Soundtrack – Cambridge Lyrics 20 years ago
Yeah, I kinda wonder if it has to do with Cambridge MN. Possibly the adolescent drug unit? I dunno, I guess the visitation and stuff made me think of that.

The Shins – Kissing the Lipless Lyrics 20 years ago
I think the first few lines are about sex, too. When he says, "You've got too much to wear on your sleeves" I think he's saying that maybe she wears her heart on her sleeve, and that she's too vulnerable, and that it's his fault. They still love eachother, but in different ways. He loves her, but she only loves him as a friend. Their friendship will never be the same after being together, though, hence the "grey remains of a friendship scarred".

For the second verse, he's obviously talking about how she's (in his eyes) bragging about having a boyfriend who gives her everything she wants. He's probably rich, or better off than James in some way ("gluing tinsel to your crown"). She doesn't like to remember how it was before, because she's trying to forget it. I think when he says "You say you're still in love, if it's true what can be done?" he's being almost sarcastis, saying... "You say that, but where you even in love in the first place?" It's hard for him to leave the moments when they were friends behind, because, like I said, it'll never be the same.

I don't know about the last part, but my guess is... She "tested" her "metal" or, her "toughness" (which, obviously wasn't tough, which is why it's explained as "doe's skin and petals". Both very fragile, or weak, things), to see if she could do something that isn't possible. Like... Make yourself love someone who you view as just a friend. She was dating him, and she wasn't as serious as he was. He wasn't in it for the sweetness of a new relationship, or of just having a companion, he was in it for everything.

I dunno, just a thought, I guess...

I love this song! Its so fun! Ive been to A Rockaway Beach (in MO, near Branson), but unfortunately, not that one.

Muse – New Born Lyrics 20 years ago
I dunno why, but for some reason the lyrics remind me of the matrix. Ya know, when Neo is "New Born" again, and he sees what the world is actually like. "When youve seen too much, too young, soulless is everywhere", would be like... You were "unplugged" from the matrix at a young age, and you realize that the people in the matrix are just computers. Soulless. And the linking could be referred to as showing the world (and yourself) whats real. Heh, I dunno, Imma geek.

The Goo Goo Dolls – Acoustic #3 Lyrics 21 years ago
I agree with kidnapper. I think this song is about how reality, or "the world", sets in, and you think that its impossible to get anywhere with this crazy dream that you have. Its trying to say "Do what your heart tells you, for once. It might make a difference. Dont let the world mess with you."

Phantom Planet – Candle Wax Lyrics 21 years ago
Sounds like a plain ol' normal Joe was with a high-class chick and their relationship was passionate, but something didnt work out. Most likely she thought she was too good for him.

You can attach whatever sentimental value you like to this song, but I pretty much take this band at face value.

Phantom Planet – In Our Darkest Hour Lyrics 21 years ago
I think its fairly obvious what this song means. The title basically explains it. The verses about the cloud and fire are mediphors. You know, the cloud follows you when youre having a bad day? And Johnny Cash fell into a burning ring of fire?

Hoobastank – Disappear Lyrics 21 years ago
I agree with Lightning. I think the pain that hes talking about is loneliness. If there was such an amazing person in your life that -- even if you didnt always like them -- it was hard for you to function without them, then I would be in pain without them too.
