Cradle of Filth – Serpent Tongue Lyrics 18 years ago
I also believe this is about Lucifer tempting Eve, and luring her to taste the forbidden fruit.
It makes sense.
I mean, on the album, Carrion follows this song, and it's about Adam and Eve's banishment from Eden. :-)

Cradle of Filth – Gilded Cunt Lyrics 18 years ago
Although I tried to see how some of you thought this song was about the Pope, I also read the response Dani had on the song, so my initial reasoning was (for once) correct. :-)
Seeing that the literal definition of "Cunt" is; a strong and dominating woman-it only makes sense that the song is about a female. I would also assume that since the song portrays the woman in a negative light, he is also using the word "cunt" as an insult as well.

Utada Hikaru – Light (Hikari) Lyrics 18 years ago
Hey. I happen to like both Hikari and Simple and Clean.
They're pretty darn catchy. :-)
Don't really know how Hikki relates to COF though...

Evanescence – Heart-Shaped Box (Nirvana cover) Lyrics 18 years ago
While I am an Evanescence fan, I agree with the most part of you, this song (in my opinion) is not as good as the original.
Amy's voice kind of cracks in parts of the song and it sounds kind of...terrible. Her voice sounds really forced and nasal at times. It's like she was trying to hard to make it sound really emotional, and it doesn't work at all.

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Gravity Lyrics 18 years ago
I think in general it's about life being difficult, dragging a person down-where they never feel successful or good enough.

Dani has actually said before that this song was about the second-coming of an apocolyptic goddess or creature of some sort.

Fall Out Boy – Pretty in Punk Lyrics 18 years ago
FAG is not a synonym for "a bad band"
Believe it or not.
Whether you like them or not is your own opinion...But,
Fall Out Boy are one of the most honest bands out there today.
And they are the nicest guys you'll ever meet.
Not only do they make music just to be making music, they do a damn good job at it.
I've never heard anyone sing as well as Patrick, and no one can touch Pete's witty sarcasm.
Joe and Andy play their instruments like nobody's business, and even though they may not be the best ever, they do an amazing job with the talents they've got.
I don't think FOB is shitty or overrated.
I think they deserve every bit of positive attention they get, and I hope they continue to make music and only get bigger.
I will not, however, suggest that your opinion is wrong-seeing that it is an OPINION.
I just wonder why you'd look up a "shitty" band that you hate so much, just to call them fags and make yourself look like a dumbass... ^_^


*interesting fact: FOB did NOT pick out their own name, a fan did back in the day. The guys liked it, stuck with it, and did not know it was a reference to The Simpsons until later on...*
Just thought everyone needed to know that.

submissions
Fall Out Boy – Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends Lyrics 18 years ago
Yes, this is definitely about what many people have already said....(other bands selling out and how FOB will never do it).
And while I agree that it does SEEM like FOB have sold out, they have most definitely not.
I'm sure that being a signed band makes them HAVE to do certain things so the label can get money, it doesn't mean the band themselves are up for being so commercial...(They can't help it if their songs are catchy!)
As for being on MTV(and stupid MTV shows such as TRL), I bet FOB had a blast doing that. It doesn't mean they've sold out...I mean, if you and your band had a chance to go on TRL and branch out to a wider fanbase(even if it made you "mainstream," and have a fun time in New York) wouldn't you?

Evanescence – Broken (Seether feat. Amy Lee) Lyrics 18 years ago
This song is definitely amazing.
I can't believe anyone would think Amy Lee's voice sucks...
Eh, but that's your own opinion, buddy.
With or without "the Ames" ^_^
This song is brilliant.

submissions
Evanescence – Whisper Lyrics 18 years ago
Wow, lots of great interpretations!
^.^
Mine is a little odd, I think this song could also be interpreted as a person having vivid nightmares. This could make some bit of sense, because Amy has admitted to having extremely terrifying nightmares as a child.

"catch me as i fall
say you're here and it's all over now
speaking to the atmosphere
no one's here and i fall into myself
this truth drives me into madness
i know i can stop the pain if i will it all away"

This part makes me think that she's seeking a parent or someone she trusts to "save her" from the "monsters" in her dream, but no one's there, and she must comfort herself.

"don't turn away
(don't give in to the pain)
don't try to hide
(though they're screaming your name)
don't close your eyes
(god knows what lies behind them)
don't turn out the light
(never sleep, never die)"

This sounds like she's trying to keep herself awake so she won't be haunted by her nightmares...

Perhaps she's dreaming of dying and she's afraid that she'll die in her sleep? Who knows.
I guess every Evanescence song is what you make it out to be... :)

submissions
Evanescence – Bring Me To Life Lyrics 18 years ago
*Adds to my previous comment*
Interesting fact; Amy wrote this song after a random guy walked up to her and asked her "Are you happy?"
Knowing she in fact. was not happy, wrote the line "How can you see into my eyes like open doors...."
She thought it was odd that he, being a complete stranger, could pretty much read her, while her friends/family sitting with her thought she was just fine.

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Slide Lyrics 18 years ago
This does sound like some sort of sexual abuse...
But I agree with a lot of the comments before mine, it can be about aging and the older you get, your youth and innocence are taken from you...
I guess it can mean whatever you'd like...
I think the only reason the sexual abuse stands out to me is because I actually knew this lady who, when she was younger, would leave during recess with a man who offered her pennies for sex. Weird.

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Girl Anachronism Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree with what someone said before, this is definitely a "joke." of some sort.
It's about Amanda being born a day sooner than planned, and joking about how she feels out of time and doesn't fit in.

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Coin-Operated Boy Lyrics 18 years ago
I do NOT think this is about a sex toy at all.
It's kind of a light-hearted way of expressing loneliness.
Like someone had said earlier, all of the person's relationships go wrong, so they're kind of making up a way they can be in a relationship without all the added "drama."
But you can tell throughout the song that the person's still hung up on that one person who hurt them so much...

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Half Jack Lyrics 18 years ago
Wow, I don't think Amanda is transgendered, but you never know. ^.^
I definitely agree with what someone has said before, this song is about her not being able to get rid of her father.
No matter how much she hates him or how little she knows him, he's always there.
He's a part of her and she hates it.

submissions
The Dresden Dolls – Bad Habit Lyrics 18 years ago
I think the "sappy songs about sex and cheating..." part just adds to the light-heartedness of the song.
Like, screw all those boring and overplayed songs about sex and things like that, I'm going to be different and write about biting my nails! ^_^
Or those songs could make her bite the skin around her nails while listening to them.
Hmmm....Who knows.

Cradle of Filth – Satanic Mantra Lyrics 18 years ago
Cradle of Filth is a band with amazing lyrics(whether they be "black metal" or mainstream "pop."), whether anyone likes the sound or not is their own opinion...But the lyrics are highly intelligent and they make you think. Just because the word "Satan" happens to be in a few songs, does not mean they are worshippers of Satan at all. Every song has an amazing story packed with emotion. To say the band and the music sucks only because they're "scary" and "Satanic" is just crazy. Every COF album pretty much sticks to a theme, and this happens to fit very well with the theme of Midian(which happens to be one of their greatest albums...in my opinion). For a person to put themself in a bubble and stereotype this band would make them a complete moron.

Cradle of Filth – A Gothic Romance (Red Roses for the Devil's Whore) Lyrics 18 years ago
Yes. I officially change my original assumptions.
I definitely think this is about Erzebet Bathory.
Her being the "original vampire" and everything.
Drinking blood and perhaps killing the person in the end.

Fall Out Boy – Grenade Jumper Lyrics 19 years ago
For all the people out there with confusion as to what this song is about, let me clear it up for you...
This song is about if Fall Out Boy ever got famous, they'd remember where they came from and who their real friends are... "Hey Chris, you were our only friend..." That's the person they know they can trust through all the fame and success... There ya go.

HIM – Join Me In Death Lyrics 19 years ago
Thank you Diet Punk Rock for clearing that up for all the IDIOTS who for some reason, have a problem with Ville Valo! Anyway, to further comment on the song, I think this is about (duh) a couple who have nothing but each other, and in order to stay that way, they want to commit suicide and be with each other "in death." Very romantic, yet very sad since this song is close to my heart. Yet, I agree, you can't have love without death... They go hand in hand.

Evanescence – Hello Lyrics 19 years ago
I agree that there's definitely a bunch of themes. Death being the main theme to Amy. It's mostly about a denial of any event and then the realization that what has happened is real and you must accept it and move on. It can be about anything you want, really...

Evanescence – Bring Me To Life Lyrics 19 years ago
skwerl518, I like your interpretation and how the song fits so closely with your beliefs, as it does with my totally different beliefs. Anyway, in response to LaDiablo's comment, I do agree that only letting a child listen to music someone considers positive, christian music is a bit sheltering... Of course, it all depends on how old the child is. It's always good to instill your own values in a child early on skwerl518, but eventually, they will hear something that may be different or in your eyes, inappropriate, and you should be prepared to handle that. I think instead of only allwing this "positive" music, as your daughter gets older, introduce her to different varieties of music so she can make her own choice with music and she can find her own meaning within the songs...

Cradle of Filth – Bathory Aria: Benighted Like Usher/A Murder of Ravens in Fugue/Eyes That Witnessed Madness Lyrics 19 years ago
EerieOompaLoompa, you're the moron... People who are rich may seem like they have everything, but the things that you may want the most cannot be bought. Elizabeth Bathory wanted eternal youth. Her vision to remain youthful blinded her from seeing any wrong in her actions... I'm sure she didn't want to be that way, she was inflicted with seizures throughout her life, which could've contributed to her actions.
By the way, I'm not a "goth," I just see humanity as it is, not as everyone thinks and pretends it should be. People are not always peaceful and considerate of others... As for the song, I think it is beautiful. The lyrics are poetry, a fine example of English literature. I don't think COF or anyone who considers this song beautiful should be shot, I think you should for your lack of properly reading the lyrics and your ignorance that blinds you from seeing and accepting people as they truly are, not just the good, but also the dark, primitive feelings that lurk inside us... The very subjects that COF make famous everyday.
