Muse – Cave Lyrics 21 years ago
Hell yea spuddly, way to make that reference to plato's cave. wut an amazing story.

the theme of plato's cave is that it can be difficult understanding actual reality b/c we get accustomed to thinking that what we see is the only reality there is or that wut we think is reality can be an illusion to people.

and this song "cave" makes several references to plato's story,

"You can see it and you can almost hear it too You can almost taste it,"--- this is how us humans difine wut is reality, by wy using our 5 senses.

"Please close your ears and try to look away"----- in plato's story, a monster propped these people's heads so that they can never move them, hence y the lyrics say, "try to look away" that is why they think that shadows are living creatures, b/c they have never seen the sun b/c their heads are stuck

Modest Mouse – Doin' the Cockroach Lyrics 21 years ago
I was in heaven
I was in hell
Believe in neither
But fear them as well

I think this line is really interesting. b/c so many people including christians some how find it hard to believe this other existance after death, yet they go to church and every week, b/c they r unsure.

its like that kinda with me, its hard to believe sumtimes that there is life after death, but i still try to have morals, like i would never steal, cuz im afraid that what if there really is an eye in the sky.

Modest Mouse – Cowboy Dan Lyrics 21 years ago
i think this song is about isaac. cuz he lives out west, and maybe he's upseet cuz his small town had turned into a city. the title of the album this was on, lonesome crowded west," is another indication of isaacs possible dislike of city life

Pixies – Monkey Gone to Heaven Lyrics 21 years ago
as the songlyrics user "periferal" said---

"Man -- was created on the fifth day of the first "week".
God -- 7 is the biblical number of perfection,
Therefore, the Devil -- 6, as it is one less than 7 and therefore imperfect, but more powerful (one more) than Man (5). "

i want to add that man was not created on the 5th day, they were created on the 6th day. On the 6h day, god also created land animals. on the 5th day, god created the fishes and the birds

Pixies – Monkey Gone to Heaven Lyrics 21 years ago
the numbers have deep meaning. oviously the devill is 6, b/c of 666, and man is 5, just b/c 5 is one of the most important number, b/c any approximations or roundings or any thing anding in 0 is divisable by 5.
God is 7 is the most interesting. In the bible, 7 or anything divisable by 7 is a number for perfection.

god rested on the 7th day after creating earth,

god reminded abraham of their covenant 7 times,

after moses died, josua led the isrealites to the promised land, but a new city was at their holy land so joshua and the isrealites marched around the the walls of Ai 7 times a day for 14 days, and on the 14th day, god caused Ai's walls to crumble

The 14 steps listed in the haggadah,

jacob served laben for 7 years to marry rachel, but got tricked into serving another 7 years,

70 people came with jacob to egypt
and there are plenty more 7 references in the bible.

the number 40 is a lot like 7 also, but 40 is more of a sign of revelation or change, where 7 is just perfection
