All Time Low – Remembering Sunday Lyrics 17 years ago
The song is about a girl that has a one night stand with the guy singing the song. He felt there was more to it than just sex, perhaps she even led him on to an extent. She pretty much just left him in the cold the morning after and he's been trying to get in touch with her ever since and it's tearing him apart. When the girl sings her part, she explains how terrible she feels for leading him on, having the sex, and abruptly leaving... but also the fact that she's over it, over him, and getting on with her life.

The Used – All That I've Got Lyrics 18 years ago
"I squoze so hard I stopped your heart from beating"

About Bert's dig, this is implying that either:

1. as he saw his dog struck by a vehicle, he ran to its side and embraced the dog as it died

2. maybe hugged the dog after death

3. perhaps the dog was hit, but needed to be put to sleep, so Bert squeezed the dog and embraced it as it was euthanized.

The Used – On My Own Lyrics 19 years ago
actingadam

any person knows that songs are left open for listener interpretation (even if there is a set meaning) any good band or songwriter would say that... and there was no possible way for anyone to know what it actually meant unless hearing it from the band yourself as you said they talked about it on a dvd.. hence the analysis

The Used – On My Own Lyrics 19 years ago
song is about contemplating suicide

a male is standing on top of a building thinking about jumping and sees all the people down below him carrying out their everyday lives, he notes how they are just wasting time, probably stemming from recent sadness, possibly a break-up

as he's thinking about jumping, he feels likes he's on top of the world, because he is so high up and thinks about all the things he wish he had done in his life or had done differently

in the end he realizes he is on his own now, there will be no one to catch his fall or to stop him from doing the unthinkable

My Chemical Romance – Disenchanted Lyrics 19 years ago
I spent my high school career
Spit on and shoved to agree
So I could watch all my heroes
Sell a car on tv
Bring out the old guillotine
We'll show 'em what we all mean.

Can anyone elaborate on the previous lyric? I get the high school part about how you need to go with the flow to be accepted, but i don't get the car salesman on tv or the guillotine part. Is it that he watched like his favorite sports stars go on to be on commercials etc..

Can someone please elaborate, i'd really appreciate it. Also sorry about that first post error.

AFI – Miss Murder Lyrics 19 years ago
I keep thinking of the chorus:

Hey Miss Murder can I
Hey Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

This makes me think of Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, and Elvis Presley.. who's beauty has been preserved by their lives being taken.

Fall Out Boy – XO Lyrics 19 years ago
The title "XO" derives from the following lines:

To the love I left my conscience pressed
Through the keyhole I watched you dress
Kiss and tell
Loose lips sink ships

The preceding lines are meant to be read as if it were a letter, I'm also assuming this song is very persoanl in nature and the events displayed actually happened to one or more of the members, possibly a number of times. Butthe XO is supposed to be ironic, it's something you'd write to your sweetheard (XO hugs and kisses), but instead uses it metaphorically to sign off his one night stand.

Fall Out Boy – XO Lyrics 19 years ago
"I hoped you choked
And crashed your car"
Hey "tear catcher", that's all that you are
And ever were
From the start
I swear, I say
I swear, I say

Tear catcher is referring to how the girl temorarily silenced his tears by telling him what he wants to hear (romance, love, relationship, etc..) That's all she ever was, right from the very beginning. He is now hoping something terrible happens to her, because he had to witness her brag to her friends over the phone saying I swear! I'm telling you, I slept with him! etc.. Now using a play on words from the very same words the girl spoke as he overheard from the keyhole.. he wishes something terrible for her, he swears it.

"I hoped you choked
And crashed your car"
Hey "tear catcher", that's all that you are
And ever were
From the start

Just to add to this meaning once more, the girl was a "tear catcher" because she temporarily silenced the FOB member's tears by telling him what he wants to hear (relationships, love, romance...). The member of FOB is now using a play on words, those same words he overheard her speak to her friend over the cell phone bragging (I swear I slept with him. I'm telling you! etc..). The FOB member is wishing something awful on to her for this, and using those same words she once used as he overheard her, he swears it.

Fall Out Boy – XO Lyrics 19 years ago
I comb the crowd and pick you out
My mouth moves too fast for you to figure it out
It starts eyes closed to fingers crossed
"To I swear, I say"
"To I swear, I say"

(This means he's looking through the crowd for some girl to have sex with. Any girl that goes to a FOB show would be closing their eyes crossing their fingers imagining they hook up with one of the band members, that's how it starts out, but ends up with the girl actually hooking up with one of the members and she's telling all of her friends about it starting with "I swear! I say...")

To hands between legs, to "whatever it takes"
To drinks at the club to the bar
To the keys to your car
To hotel stairs to the emergency exit door

(Whatever it takes for this girl to sleep with one of the band members... it's going down no matter what. One of the band members takes the girl back to his room, of course using an emergency exit or everyone would mob him, because he's famous.)

To the love, I left my conscience pressed
Between the pages of the Bible in the drawer
"What did it ever do for me" I say (I say, I say, I say)
It never calls me when I'm down
Love never wanted me
But I took it anyway
Put your ear to the speaker
And choose love or sympathy
But never both
Love never wanted me

(There's always a bible in every hotel room drawer, this is just reference to instead of reading the bible, he's having sex with a random and metaphorically placing his conscience within the pages of the bible, because his conscience and the bible never ever helped him when he was depressed or heartbroke, but sex temporarily removes htese feeling for a moment. He feels he does not need his conscience especially now that he's sleeping with a random and he knows it's not love, but just goes with it anyhow. The love and sympathy part has to do with the one night stand... how the sex is temporarily curing emotions of heartbreak, perhaps from a former girlfriend, it's never love and sympathy.. it's either done with trying to create a new love, even though it won't work, or it's a sad pathetic one night stand.. never both.)

"I hoped you choked
And crashed your car"
Hey "tear catcher", that's all that you are
And ever were
From the start
I swear, I say
I swear, I say

(He hopes something awful happens to this one night stand, because he wanted it to be more than just sex, but realizes that's all it was, he gave in to sex to maybe start a relationship, but the girl just ends up bragging about sleeping with a member of FOB.)


To the love I left my conscience pressed
Through the keyhole I watched you dress
Kiss and tell
Loose lips sink ships

(He's expressing the following lines to the girl he had the one night stand with at the hotel. Ironically calling her a "love", which is what it was supposed to turn out to be, but she just ended up using him for bragging rights. He stuck around and watched her through the keyhole, before he had to go off somewhere, this is assuming after the sex and probably after they exchanged cell numbers, etc. He's just sticking around, because he's just been lovestruck, he wants to observe her and she how she takes it, all he wants to see is a glimmer of happiness or a bright smile when she awakes. However, this does not happen, she get dressed as he's peeking through the keyhole and immediately starts dialing her friends on the phone to tell them all she just slept with a member of Fall Out Boy. Loose lips is referring to the telephone calls she is making to her friends to brag and can also be seen as loose lips, she'll kiss around or do anything to get what she wants. Her loose lips sinked the member of Fall Out Boy's metahporical ship, because he thought a relationship may have come out of this one night stand.)

Hawthorne Heights – Niki FM Lyrics 19 years ago
Besides the band's song meaning, it obviously doesn't match up with their music video. So here's some interpretation of that:

Stalkerish: He stands outside of her window, just watching the girl he is in love with, even though he can't have her, he wants to keep a watchful eye on her at all times. The radio keeps him company.

Famous: Maybe this girl didn't give JT the time of day, but now that he's famous, he's kind of rubbing it in her face by mentally saying: "hey, you didn't want me before, but check me and my band out now, we're on the radio, we're famous, you could of had me". JT saluting the radio up outside of her window is just like rubbing it in.

Hawthorne Heights – Decembers Lyrics 19 years ago
i orignally thought this song was about some sort of breakup or separation, but this is what i'm thinking now...

the their and they that is mentioned throughout the song is the girl's parents. the boy and girl are in love, but might be moving too fast for the parents to hand and he wants to make it last.. moving too fast in the instance of staying out late and such..

he mentions if only they were all alone, this could be to the parents of the girl, because the parents have had each other for a considerable amount of time i'm sssuming, but if only they were alone they could understand their situation... OR it could be to all the lovers out there, if only they were all alone they could understand separation.

My Chemical Romance – I Never Told You What I Do For a Living Lyrics 21 years ago
This song is about a man trying to bring his girlfriend back from the dead... for those of you who don't know, his girlfriend died, he makes a pact with the devil, and the devil tells the man to bring him the corpses of 1,000 evil men to resurrect his girlfriend.

Now from what I understand of this song, he kills the 1,000 people and finally is able to see his girlfriend again. They love again, laugh again, and they dance together... but as they dance together, authorities arrive, because the man is wanted for 1,000 murders. The authorities fire two shots, striking each of them in the back of their head and they both die together... and to the man, it's better of that way.

or

The title kind of gives me another perspective, perhaps the man has started another relationship with another girl, just for the sake of adding another name to his 1,000. He never told her what he does for a living, so he intends on killing this girl. He tells her it isn't for money or fame, it's only for the bodies that he claims. And he could only go so far with this girl until it was time to bury her. Before he plans the muder of this girl, he spends one fine evening with her and dances, but unexpectedly, authorities arrive and just fire at anything that moves and ended up killing the two. The man then says it's better of this way, because he can finally see his girlfriend in the afterlife.
