Anberlin – Paperthin Hymn Lyrics 20 years ago
When your only friends are hotel rooms
Hands are distant lullabies
If I could turn around I would tonight

^ when your friends are just temporary and won’t be there forever giving/care/support are hardly given and this person obviously wants this to change

These roads never seemed so long
Since your paper heart stopped beating leaving me suddenly alone
Will daybreak ever come?

^ obstacles in life have never been so long and since this person’s significant other stopped having feelings for this person in all of a sudden this person feels as if life is ending

Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands

^ this person is thinking what are they going to do without each other. This person wants another chance to be with his/her significant other even though it could fall apart so easily again

I thought you said forever
Over and over
A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion
These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of violins become my only friends

^ this person thinks about how his/her significant other said they wanted to be together forever and reminded them frequently and now he/she can’t sleep because he/she keeps thinking about what she/he said. Pity is his/her only friend now

August evenings
Bring solemn warnings
To remember
to kiss the ones you love goodnight

^ now nights just remind him/her of how they would spend them together and they just make him/her sad

You never know what temporal days may bring
So Laugh, love, live free, and sing
When life is in discord
Praise ye the Lord

^ you never what is going to happen so take a chance and when there are problems just have faith

Snow Patrol – Whatever's Left Lyrics 20 years ago
okay this song is so not about sex in my eyes, but whatever. everyone has their own persecptive in music based on past experiences in life. so yea think is what i think this song is about.

"It's a feeling I've had many times before
I can't hold the fort so don't give me more
I struggle and sweat when I'm wide awake
When I know I'm fine, I'm not used to fine"
^^^ okay so person 1 get a revided feeling of love and person 1 knows how love feels and doesn't want anymore because person is scared of falling in lvoe again... this time scared of falling in love with person 2

"It's the same thing again
But it could become a problem if
We don't deal with it now
And you blast off in another rant"
^^^person 1 wants to tell person 2 where person 1's emotions stand to see if the feeling is mutual, but is afraid of person 2 becoming mad like if person 1 is doubting their relationship and things will like.. die or mess up and not be the same

"I've not opened my mouth
Can you read my mind so easily"
^^^ so person 1 decides not to say anything and is hoping person 2 gives a sign that person 1 loves them back... mutality.. you know?

"As the madness sets in
You must know that I'll follow you""
^^^person 1 is going crazy not knowing and tells person 2 how where the emotions stand, but want person 2 to know that person 2 lvoes person 1 no matter what and if jsut saying.. you know?

"A sudden movement and a broken limb
The patches are there to show where I'm hit"
^^^ things turned out having person 2 get mad at person 1. now either A. person 2 rejected person 1 or B. person 2 got mad for doubting anything.

"My fault is it now well that's news to me"
^^^ person 1 feels as if it's person 1's fault for this to happen, but doesn't naturally feel like that. person 1 is informed (like how the news informs you of everyday life etc.) see ::well that's news to me::

"Curled and joyless we try once again"
^^^ curled stands for not open hearted anymore and you have to work your way open to let your love out. joyless stands for no more passion of the first romance. we try once again is pretty self explanatory. well actually no. it could mean two things from the viewer's eye. either a. they both moved onto a new person to love or b. they try they relationship over again to not have it messed up and get the feelings mutaly balanced.




and there you go.

Breaking Benjamin – Firefly Lyrics 20 years ago
i think this song is about someone who finally gets who they want after trying so hard. he/she had to break them away from who they really are and bring them into "their world". after this person got them he/she finds out who this person really is. he/she thought he/she could handle their problems and issues, but then he/she realizes what they got themselves into. this person isn't really who he/she thought she/he was. this person won't change.

"You're a lot like them
But I cut your line"
he/she took her/him from their "world"


"Firefly
Could you shine your light
Now I know your ways
'cause they're just like mine"
him/her wanting her/him to "shine their light" like a firefly lights up... comprende? to make sure that it's there


"Take my hand
We'll be off and then
We'll come back again
To a different land
Now I like this way
You can go away"
him/her asking her/him to come with them into their "world"

"Bring me your enemies
Lay them before me
And walk away"
him/her thinking they can take on hers/his problems/issues


"Fuck you firefly
Have you lost your light
"Now I hate your ways
'cause they're just like mine
So you lost my friend
Such a sorry end
And I don't know why
So I choke and smile"
he/she realize who this person really is and how they didn't change when he/she took her/him out of their world when he/she thought her/him could

Everclear – The New York Times Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is about a guy who moved on from a girl, but he still kept his eyes on her like watching and protecting her and finds out how she is through his own sources. the reason that they are in differnt worlds is because
"this eye for an eye thing
it has gone too far"
they did it in vengence like the saying an eye for me eye and the part
"i don't know anyone who does not hurt inside
i would like to believe that we can learn from this
and maybe some day
make things right"
that means that they should stop the vengence and just get along
