| Death Cab for Cutie РAll Is Full of Love (Bj̦rk cover) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Ok this is my interpretation of the meaning behind this song, which is influenced by a girl I know who has shut herself off from love because of being hurt in the past and this reminds me of her so here goes: ("You'll be given love You'll be taken care of You'll be given love You have to trust it") This is a song to give hope to those who think that love is not real and that it will never happen to them. Whether you want to believe it or not, love is real, it is all around us every day, you will experience it, you just have to have faith. ("Maybe not from the sources You have poured yours Maybe not from the direction You are staring at Twist your head around It's all around you All is full of love All around you") Love may not come from the person you have poured your heart and soul to, and maybe not the person you are expecting love to come from, but look around you, look at the people in your life, your close friends, your family, it is everywhere, its out there. ("All is full of love You just ain't receiving Your phone is off the hook Your doors are all shut (All is full of love) In any language All is full of love") If you close yourself off, of course it will be impossible to find, open up, and you will find love. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – The Sound of Settling Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think like most that this song is about a guy who isnt able to really be outgoing and talk to many girls so he holds back. Later in life he is able to sit back and think about what wouldve happened if he wouldve taken advantage of every opportunity he had to say something or do something instead of holding back strictly because he was afraid to. Could he have found someone else? Would he be happier in life? Instead he chose to stay quiet and settle (this is the sound of settling) for the life he had due to him living in fear of acting on those impulses that he held back. He has a hunger for more, he wants to know what more is out there for him. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – Someday You Will Be Loved Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I agree with Our Hearts Desire. This seems more like an end to a one night stand. He is offering some kind of reassurance with his note though, "Someday you will be loved". She may feel used and broken after their one night fling but one day she will find someone who will make her forget about any bad relations/relationships with anyone else. And she will truly know what it is like to be in love with someone. Although she has not met this person yet, she will someday. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – Title and Registration Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
IMO the glove compartment is NOT a metaphor for his heart, i think the surgery on his heart in the video is just to get the idea across that the memories and such that are brought up from what he finds in the glove box break his heart, bringing back old memories of someone who is no longer in his life ("And all I find are souvenirs from better times Before the gleam of your taillights fading east To find yourself a better life") And although neither of them were to blame for the way their relationship ended he is stuck where he goes from the feeling of disappointment of the end of his relationship to feeling regret for things he possibly couldve changed that wouldve kept it from ending. ("There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade And now that it's gone, it's like it wasn't there at all And here I rest where disappointment and regret collide") |

This is a GREAT song, I think pretty much everyone has had a relationship that they felt like this in. I know ive had a couple. Its one of those things where in the beginning you feel real into it and then you realize that you dont really have any feelings for this person. Its just something there and then that you dont want to give up. Hence the ("So when you'd ask, "Is something wrong?" I'd think, "You're damn right there is But we can't talk about it now No, we can't talk about it now") part. He feels kind of guilty about how he feels nothing for her, yet she apparently really cares about him, yet he is not willing to give up the relationship simply because he would rather be in a meaningless relationship than not be in one at all. And when it finally ends, he will go along with the typical recovery process although he has nothing to recover from, while she does. ("So one last touch and then you'll go And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more But it was vile, and it was cheap") Thats just how I see it. |

I don’t know if any of you guys caught how this seems like a song from two different perspectives, like this part would be one person in the relationship: “Don't be so scared we will not lead you on Like you've been doing for weeks. Your selfish, and I'm sorry When I'm gone you'll be going nowhere fast, nowhere fast, nowhere fast. Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you? Cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me, Near death, last breath, and barely hanging on. Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?” And this would be the second persons perspective: “Don't be so scared to take a second for reflecion, to take a leave of absence to see what your made of. So I'm "selfish" and you're "sorry". When I'm gone you'll be going nowhere fast. So who's "selfish" and who's "sorry"? Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you? Cause I wouldn't believe you if you said the same to me, Near death, last breath, and barely hanging on. Would you believe me if I said I didn't need you?” Cause of how the first section says “your selfish, and im sorry”, and the second part says “so im selfish and you’re sorry”. Makes it seem like this song is supposed to represent two peoples perspectives in a relationship. Maybe its just me, meh. I really don’t know how to really break this song down into a meaning though, just pointing out something I noticed. |

| Between the Trees – Words Lyrics | 19 years ago |

Lyrics corrections: This night, this night’s just like the rest. Thsese same thoughts just runnin’ through my head. Same reckless phrase with a different face. They say, they say that I am worthless, but I’m not listening. I swear, in the end. Round, round they spin like a record now. Same falsehoods built to be broke down. Around and around, I’m falling down, again. Sticks and stones may break my bones; Your words they surely kill, they surely kill. This feels the same. Complications and different situations. I am holding out for love. Is it worth it to die a little each day? All for unseen grace. Sticks and stones may break my bones; Your words they surely kill, they surely kill. Your words they surely kill, they surely kill. Your words are breaking down now. I would say, where I’ve been to where I am, It is worth it; it is grace. When all else fades, you can see it, this place. So now… Round, round they spin like a record now. Same falsehoods built to be broke down. These thoughts were meant to be broke down. (x 12) Sticks and stones may break my bones; Your words they surely kill, they surely kill. Your words they surely kill, they surely kill. Your words are breaking down now. It’s all for her, again. Yeah. |

| INXS – Afterglow Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
My interpretation of the song. “Here I am, lost in the light of the moon that comes through my window Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses It's you and the roses” He is in the “aftermath” of a relationship. He now has to separate his hurtful past(the thorns) from his bright future (the roses). He’s separating what he had with her(the thorns) and what it will be like from that point on (the roses) “Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow Heal me from all this sorrow As I let you go I will find my way when I see your eyes Now I'm living in your afterglow” He tries to move on with his life, but as soon as he comes around her again and lets her back into his life he gets set back to missing her and back into his past. Each time he gets rid of the thought of being with her he goes right back to loving her after seeing her. “Here I am, lost in the ashes of time, but who wants tomorrow? In between the longing to hold you again I'm caught in your shadow, I'm losing control My mind drifts away, we only have today” He is still in love with her and wants it the way it was back when they were together, “who wants tomorrow” when tomorrow means not being with her and yesterday is being in love with her. “Touch me and I will follow in your afterglow Heal me from all this sorrow As I let you go I will find my way I will sacrifice 'til the blinding day when I see your eyes Now I'm living in your afterglow” He still wants to make it all work out and be with her. “When the faith has gone as I let you go, as I let you go” When one day he eventually runs out of faith of them being back together he will be able to let her go. “Bathed in blue, the walls of my memory divide the thorns from the roses It's you who is closest” No matter how much he tries to move on, its always easier to go back to her than to try to move on with his life. |

Great GREAT! Song. The video is touching too. Lyrics correction: Instead of "August evenings Bring solemn warnings To remember to kiss the ones you love goodbye" It should be: "August evenings Bring solemn warnings To remember to kiss the ones you love goodnight" |

| Our Lady Peace – Clumsy Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I think this song is about a friend who has made bad choices, and perhaps has grown apart from you, and you tried helping them but they refused your help all along, but when they finally need your help you sit there and do nothing. | |

| Howie Day – Collide Lyrics | 20 years ago |

This song is such a great song, it really matches the situation im in. " The dawn is breaking A light shining through You're barely waking And I'm tangled up in you" She is just starting to realize how much he cares about her "I'm open, your closed Where I'll follow you'll go I worry I won't see your face Light up again" He tells her how he feels but she does not open up to him like he did to her, and he is scared that she really doesnt care about him and now things will be awkward so he will never see her like he used to "Even the best fall down sometimes Even the wrong words seem to rhyme Out of the doubt that fills my mind I somehow find you and I collide" Even though he doubts that they will actually get together, he thinks they will always be there for each other "I'm quiet you know You make a first impression I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind" She is finally coming out to him, and she is really outgoing, but now maybe he isnt sure if he still feels for her like he used to, and now hes afraid to let anything happen with them because hes unsure "Even the best fall down sometimes Even the stars refuse to shine Out of the back you fall in time Somehow find you and I collide" not really sure how to interpret this part "Don't stop here I lost my place I'm close behind" After he stopped thinking he cared for her so strongly, she realizes she cares and now he has to find where he left off "Even the best fall down sometimes Even the wrong words seem to rhyme Out of the doubt that fills your mind You finally find you and I collide" She finally realizes that they were both in love with each other Unfortunately i havent gotten to the end of the song in my situation, I see it in the near future though =) |

i agree with "yournamehere" this song is really important to me seeings i have been in a situation where this girl im totally in love with is with another guy and has been for over a year and a half. This song is about a guy on the outside feeling that the guy she is with now is not as in love with her as he is(me). "When I showed up and he was there I tried my best to grin and bear" he really wants to do something about the guy but he wont because he knows it will ruin what he has with the girl if he does something rash and illogical. I have had this song on repeat for about an hour and it seems as if it only gets better. |
