@[maryxus:30643] this is such an amazing post.. Great job! My only two things are: is it corner toward? I definitely hear corner but I'm not sure if forever fits, and then the "happy one" - should it be happy boy? I swear I can hear boy.
You put so much thought and effort into your interpretation. Thank you! And I can absolutely see the abortion meaning. |

| Cursive – Driftwood: A Fairy Tale Lyrics
| 15 years ago

I don't agree that the relationship's end was due to the guy's "fakeness" and "lies." I think it's about a guy who is so worn out from failed relationships, then the girl comes along and sweeps him off his feet - she doesn't seem like all the rest. She represents hope for good love. However, little does he know that she, too, has had many failed relationships (sounds like because she's been lied to a lot or mistreated). She has a hard time believing he won't turn out like the rest, so she calls his love a lie and puts him through tests, trying to make sure his love is real. He tries and tries to prove to her he means it, but it exhausts him and he eventually has to give up because there's only so much a person can do - this turns him into that "liar," but it's inevitable when only one person is all in. So, yet again, it's another failed relationship. After so many bad relationships, he gives up on love - hardens up, and becomes apathetic and hopeless. The end.
Basically, it's just like a girl who always accuses a new bf of doing something bad, because she's had many bad experiences in the past. The guy will eventually tire of trying to prove himself to her, and just give up, thus creating a cycle of jaded people that no longer see true love as something possible. |

| Camera Obscura – Tears for Affairs Lyrics
| 15 years ago

I'm thinking that the song is being sung from "the other woman's" perspective. She feels stupid/silly for falling for a guy that was taken, when she so clearly understood that "affairs never win." That's why he comes in during the chorus to say he didn't want to say goodbye - maybe he has a wife? kids? or just simply can't get out of a relationship because too many eyes are on him. She is his "dirty secret" from the second stanza. At first, I was in denial of her being the one he's cheating with, but it's still sad, I suppose. Who knows why he cheated or why he can't just be with this girl. |

I think it's beautiful that she can still remember and appreciate the love between her and her first love, despite him leaving her. Most people become bitter, question the love they felt, and just overall want to forget the joy so they can move on. It makes the song so sad and so sweet. |

why not just have an open mind about this song? i love the softness of it because i can appreciate his beautiful voice and relate to the lyrics, no matter how simplified they may be. just knowing that this band has MANY other great songs is good enough for me. |

My Chemical Romance sucks hard. However, this song is decent enough to attract me. I blame it on the video because the singer makes the BEST sad faces and he's pretty cute in make-up. Same with the pretty girl. ..Aside from that, I find it hard to beleive that this is about his grandmother. The girl in the video is his age which leads me to think it's his dead girlfriend/friend. ..and it also sounds like she pulled that famous emo-suicide. "we are the very hurt you sold" & "like a blade you stain" yeasurefine. it could be FOR his grandma? but definatly not ABOUT her. |

To me, the song is about a girl who realizes that she's growing up. The butterfly represents the child ...careless and free and the dog represents what she is becoming. "She roll back down..with a little tear in her eye. she had to try." translates- she misses the comfort of childhood. |

this song really sends me for a spin. i understand the whole getting away from it all scenario, but "i dressed you in her clothes" O_o
my half-assed assumption: somebody broke his heart and he needs to get away from the pain so he takes this girl (maybe she admired him or she just came into his life) and pretends that she's his past love because with her, it's new and beautiful...like most beginnings are. so in a way, he forces her to kiss his booboos away. |

I thought this song was oh so beautiful the 1st time I heard it, but ever since I read Canda's comment it's just a million times more perfect. I'm so in love with this song's depth. So thank you for explaining it Canda! :) |

"It's only right.." and "It's only me" are the parts that get to me. Her voice is so damn beautiful.
But so yea, the song kicks ass. Talks about guys who lose their lovely because they want other lovelies then want the original lovely again because just cant seem to get a grip on what it actually means to love a person truly. |

I doubt Stevie Nicks would create a song based on a character without so much character. Surely it's deeper than that.
But anyways, I dont like the song per say, but I like the lyrics because of how helplessly and regetfully isolated this girl is. Its kind of like me. Oh and my name is Miranda, too. =) |

tehe. I'm the 1st one to post. Awsome.
The song is cool. It's about a chick who is constantly confused about her Mr.Man's love for her because one minute he treats her like the cherry atop an ice cream then the next like crap. However she sticks with him because she loves the good moments. Yay. |

what in the world? .."i wish stevie nicks was my mom" ?!
such a character you are :D.
i'm in love with fleetwood mac and especially their beautiful gypsy-dancing woman so of course i like this song. that and the idea that she wants so bad for the relationship to be something better than it is expresses everybody's eventual desire for their own relationship. love it. <3 |

SENORgracioso -
I dont think it's about sex after marriage. I mean, it's a good thought to think, but why would he say "I came here expecting next to nothing, so thank you for being that kind of girl." ? ...after getting married it's no longer taboo, so you dont have to be a certain "kind" of girl anymore. |

crazy fucks and their song titles.
the song is simply magnifying a perfect night. i assume he's trying to get us into the whole situation...which works, actually. it's nice to imagine being with someone you possibly love and loves you back all the meanwhile being in a car that travels faster than your very feet with the cool breeze blowing your face and the tipsy all-is-well drunkeness in your system. |

I thought for awhile that the lyrics were more "Your love is a verve.." either way, it is about "making love." I think it's a fantastically beautiful song and I'm glad it's not the typical asstittiessexassmoretits type of song. Instead of stating that he met a girl at a party and fucked her, he goes deeper into the romantic connection they have. I sincerely wish I was this guy's tractor beam destination. |
