My Morning Jacket – I Will Be There When You Die Lyrics | 16 years ago |
i just had a daughter in mid june and i would always sing this song to her even when she was still in me. i don't think ive listened to this song and not cried. |
Lali Puna – Faking The Books Lyrics | 17 years ago |
i feel like this song is about, like a lot of people said, a relationship. but i think its about a passed relationship that you just cant quite get over and youre sitting around lying to yourself about the possibility of it coming together again just to get by on hope. |
Akron/Family – Running, Returning Lyrics | 17 years ago |
you have to have this song all the way up in your headphones. to me, this song is about someone who has had the opportunity to fall deeply in love with someone but they just couldn't let themselves go to get close enough with the person and do things right. |
The Shins – Gone For Good Lyrics | 17 years ago |

Akron/Family – I'll Be on the Water Lyrics | 17 years ago |
ah, the beauty of realizing you love someone, not quite knowing if they love you the same. "if you have to stay. ill be on the water. catching the next wave. you can meet me where it breaks." the wait and anticipation of finally getting the person you want. |
Pedro the Lion – Rapture Lyrics | 18 years ago |
it honestly doesn't matter whether you're disappointed in david's songwriting in this song because it's not for you. it's for him and from him. keep that in mind. where you get off thinking you're "disappointed" in him is way beyond me. write your own damn songs. to me, "gideon is in the drawer", like said before, refers to the bibles played in the night stand drawers of most hotel rooms. i think it's almost saying that while he's committing adultery, him knowing the bible is right there, in the drawer, means that he's doing something he knows he isn't supposed to but the lust is so strong that he can't help it. |
Pedro the Lion – The Longest Winter Lyrics | 18 years ago |
i think this song is about someone who had fallen in love in the past and got hurt and so used to feeling so numb to the world- to protect themselves. so when it comes to meeting the one person they're supposed to be with, that feels so right, they're too scared to try it. and by saying: "Then the longest winter is on her way You called her without knowing it But now it's too late" once they realized they didn't want to be lonely and without that person anymore it was too late. and like dmb2135 said, winter is depressing because it is usually associated with lonliness. so in this song, winter is a metaphor for lonliness. |
Mirah – Lucky Little Shark Lyrics | 18 years ago |
if this isn't the perfect, hopeful "im so in love with you" song, than i don't know what is |
Mirah – Don't Die In Me Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I full heartedly agree with you, nineagain. Well, for the most part. I definiately percieve this song to be about love but in a different sense than you. I see this song as someone who is so in love with someone that that person could do whatever they wanted and even though it would hurt them and break them apart they don't want them to leave because they're apart them. "All the things that got cracked When I felt like you lied to me And all the million mistakes And the kicks in the face But i don't want you to die in me So when you say what you want That you need what you got Don't forget to be kind to me I don't want you to die in me " I think, to me, what's being said here is that when all is said and done and you're done throwing your words at me and lying and i'm done forgiving whatever it is you do, I will always love you and want to me with you no matter what and not to leave me because you're apart of me. |
