Azure Ray – Beautiful Things Can Come from the Dark Lyrics 19 years ago
no, I really like these lyrics. I think it's about her liking a boy who's with someone else and she can tell he's unhappy being with the someone else. and the line 'You could even find love in the arms of someone else’s girl.' I think the 'someone else's girl' is her, saying that she's with someone but she's not that happy either.

I like it. It show's the unhappieness that can be had even when your with someone. The way it feels to be with someone while wanting someone else. The way it feels to want someone who is already someone elses.

kind of reminds me of a relationship I'm trying to start right now, though he's not truly with someone and i'm not truly with anyone either. The same feelings are there.

Rilo Kiley – More Adventurous Lyrics 20 years ago
I agree with "And if I get pregnant I guess I'll just have the baby" being a great lyric. I think it's because, most people I know, myself included, if we were to get pregnant we'd freak thinking what we were going to die. But she says simply, well I guess I'll just have it and hope for the best. Many people have a hard time answering that question, but she makes it seem easy.

My favorite line, by far, is 'let me be loved'. I suppose because I think the very same quite often

Rilo Kiley – My Slumbering Heart Lyrics 20 years ago
what about the end though? It's something like..

My mom she cried about money and time
And how she felt older
And I didn't understand much
She left, I stayed
My dad played in the bar
And I wondered if I loved like him
He would smoke(?) even with food
?? he looked like an eskimo
And we were in Alaska
A year when I had seen more
Imagined a mural of an arctic sea
Where seals and people seemed nicer than me
Where they smoked and talked about the dissapearing ground

I love love love that part, does anyone know where I can find the entirely correct lyrics?

The Spill Canvas – Black Dresses Lyrics 20 years ago
nooo you guys. i think you're all trying to make it mean too much. Like, it's cool if all the losing virginity stuff is how this song relates to you or whatever but its a far stretch to say that you think thats what he was getting at. although i do agree, i can see it being that. I'm thinking it means simply that he's fallen in love, and with love comes a lot of hardships (not knowing if they love you back, heartbrake, etc.) and you don't have to do deal with such things when you're a kid so he feels he must be growing up. and he doesnt know if he's ready for it.. or if he wanted it to be this way. ok the virginity aspect about this had never crossed my mind before but i guess now that i'm thinking about it, it does make a lot of sense but i dont think i *want* it to mean that. I want it to be about losing your innocence entirely, not just by means of sex. but a good song should mean whatever the listener needs it to mean for them. i hope that makes sense

From First to Last – When Flying Feels Like Falling Lyrics 20 years ago
ok there's this poem.. it goes:

falling feels like flying,
until you hit the ground.
and everything is beautiful,
until you take a look around

i have no idea who wrote that, or where it comes from (but i would love to, so if you know please tell, thanx) but the song title reminds me of it so i'm wondering if theres a connection.

Scary Kids Scaring Kids – Bulletproof Lyrics 20 years ago
it's about joining the army. Saying it's almmost like commiting suicide, 'are you bulletproof?' because you're probably gonna get shot and die. and if you don't die well 'cross your fingers', it's just luck.

The Spill Canvas – The Night Will Go As Follows Lyrics 20 years ago
And then I'll say,
"Would you like to go inside?
and forget the world and the rules
by which we are to abide"
And she will say,
"There's nothing I want more"
As we step into the room, turn off the lights and close the door

I love those lyrics. And i think the 'torn up pages' are refering to a diary of sorts, becuz when you write something that makes you happy, like about what you and your lover did all day, you want to go back and read it over and over. And the pages are bound to get torn and dirtyed up a little bit.

Thats what I think it means.

Scary Kids Scaring Kids – Locked In Lyrics 20 years ago
i can't beleive this song has been posted for nearly a year and i am the first poster on it. I think it's amazing. Most of it I guess is pretty obvious to what it means, a lot of it's a message to the masses. "to see between the lines you'd never read" i think that means a lot, like you see the truth when you read between the lines but if you never read the lines in the first place, then how could it possibly be the truth? But at the same time, does it even matter?

Armor for Sleep – A Quick Little Flight Lyrics 21 years ago
I like these lyrics.. I haven't heard the song yet though. What it means, um.. the pretending to fly aboe the trees and seeing them all waving back and smiling.. wanting things to be happy, if they're smiling and waving they must be happy. And he sees all the people fast asleep so, maybe they have to be asleep for things to be good. And then at the end, can you see me happy? Can your freinds see it too? Or can you not even see me at all? I dunno... but i like it for sure

It's about finding out who you are.

A Thorn for Every Heart – Things Aren't So Beautiful Now (Part I) Lyrics 21 years ago
I think this song is about 'him' having some kind of problem that's constantly making him go to the hospital. Like maybe a drug problem? And when he says 'everything I see repeats over and over' I think that's what means he has been at the hospital before. I think he feels bad because he's bringin 'her' into these situations so often. Like an abusive husband or... WOW maybe this is about him being abusive and maybe the 'repeats over and over' is how he's been there so many times taking care of her at a hospital.

She's been advised
But nothings right
All the things he's done have come to destroy their lives ---- She knows how he is but still comes back, the things he's done (hurting her) he realizes are fucking things up.

Why she still comes to stay with me.. (I'll forget.) ---- He doesn't know why she still comes back to him

(Is he okay?..)
(I'm sorry for killing you over this..) ---- I think he's gone too far this time and people are wondering if he's gonna be alright cuz he looks rather guilty...

WOW.. I dont know if thats what it is but oddly enough, tonight that's just completely to a T what i think it means.

A Thorn for Every Heart – A Street Car Named Desire Lyrics 21 years ago
I think, it's obvious he's missing someone when he talks about 'waiting for the phone to ring' and he says he sitting next to the phone so maybe he feels he's been waiting too long.

'I sing this song to you' he wants who ever he's talking about to know how he feels, and I guess he wasn't the right person for who he's talking about 'I'm sorry i wasn't what you're looking for' And 'you just don't get it', possibly, means that he thinks he IS the right person, they just can't see that. 'life is always better after the fall', life is gonna be better now for him, and could be for who he's talking about if this person would just give it the chance.

'peices are raing down on me' , could be that 'peices' are the realizations of whats happened and thats where 'after all you've done to me' comes from. Now he sees what's really going on (the realizations) so 'won't wait, i can't beleive in...anything at all' is showing how possibly he can't beleive what he's realizing or that he can't beleive in this person ever really coming back/beleive in them changing for the better. 'after all the pain you've caused..' he knows the horrible thing's this person has caused, most likely for him, but he still can't help but feel for them, and he still has hope. I think he hates that.

'...strange that you don't seen to feel the same way', he's waiting for life to get better and he thinks, shouldn't you be too? 'write me off, bury me and leave me for dead' he wants to be forgotten, or possible to prove the he can take it. 'open wide, eat your words and choke on regrets' he heopes they realize what they've done too him.

the last lines i think mean he wants you to see what the worst can look like, and he's willing to be your everything, and he wants you o have everything, but he's hopefull 'set up and ready to fall'

thats just what i think.. i LOVE atfeh!! but isn't is a thorn FOR every heart, kids?

Saves the Day – Sell My Old Clothes, I'm Off to Heaven Lyrics 21 years ago
I have nothing to really add on what I think the song means that hasn't already been said but... I only read half of these comments and saw that there's a lot of you that don't know what the title means? Well, I think it means

'sell my old clothes'
old clothes are usually used and worn, and selling means getting rid of them so - forget what I've done - or possibly - get rid of everything that will remind you of me

'I'm off to heaven'
He's leaving.. and heaven is supposed to be a good place so - he's leaving to a better place

I don't know, thats just what I take it to mean

Elefant – Misfit Lyrics 21 years ago
I literally just hours ago found out about this band and I'm in love. I think this song is about like trying to get someone to completely open up to you. Telling them you're gonna be there for them no matter what there story is.
