| Rihanna – Russian Roulette Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I believe this is a metaphor for her abusive relationship with chris brown.. it feels like this, i do know.. i have been in an abusive relationship and u contemplate suicide because u feel trapped like theres no way out.. u walk on eggshells..u do anything for the abuser in hopes he won't abuse u anymore. | |
| Cavo – My Little Secret Lyrics | 16 years ago |

| Train – Hey, Soul Sister Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| soulmates met in dreams or as many artists believe..out of body experiences. and we have many soulmates for many different purposes in each life. the title makes me think of the terms.. twin souls just my far out there take on the lyrics. plus this song is about the same person from drops of jupiter. i had this username before that older song was even released. my ruling planet is venus. | |
| Evans Blue – Cold (But I'm Still Here) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| don't you hate when you are haunted.. i'm still haunted by my ex who basically threw me out of his apartment one night and after i drove off...that was it... 2 1/2 years so much we went through together... and i was always there for him... ALWAYS! When his new friends turned on him and when his family rejected or judged him, i was the one picking up the pieces. then one day he met his WoW goddess online and threw me away. and no matter how far I've moved...how hard I've tried...who I've dated...it doesn't matter he's still haunting my dreams and thoughts. He threw me away for new ppl he met that moved in next door to him that were addicts...and he met the next door neighbors friend who was a gamer like him, and he tossed me into the garbage. not a week after he basically said he still was in love with me. but yea...darklyangelic...i feel you on that. | |
| Cold – It Happens All The Time Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| everytime i hear this song... james c. k. i think of you :( although we both moved on almost a year ago... my dreams of you will not let me let go... and i do try... and constantly remind myself how you hurt and betrayed me, but i still can't get this feeling out of my system that you only did that to set me free. and let me believe that... i can go on easier that way. if you ever in your lifetime read this, know i will always love you. you were the true and my first adult love... i will someday find a way to move on COMPLETELY... at this moment you are not just in my heart, but you are embedded in my soul. remember when i was your blue eyed angel... i never will forget. | |
| Trapt – Who's Going Home With You Tonight Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| how about a couple that dated and it wasn't working as a relationship... so they decided to be more of a friends w/benefits, but he has feelings and won't admit it and continues playing hard.. maybe she wasn't always this way, but after getting hurt and burned so many times, she finally decided to say "fuck it" to relationships and treat men they way they've always treated her... that's how i take it... advice to men... if you care, don't play games w/our minds and hearts and play tough asses and maybe then you might get the girl | |

| REO Speedwagon – Time For Me To Fly Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I tend to think the jealousy part could also mean how sometimes you are involved with someone who is just plain jealous of you, not of you being with someone else, just jealous you had it a little better growing up, that you are maybe a little more educated, or at least interested in educating yourself and being a better person... so many of my exes... | |

| Nickelback – Far Away Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| What I wouldn't give for this to be how my exfiance felt? I left, he emotionally withdrawn..sometimes emotionally abusive, all he knew...and it was no bfd after I left...he got some skank pregnant just 2 months later! all the years, the time, effort, and things we went thru, times we shared...didn't mean a damn thing. | |
| Breaking Benjamin – I Will Not Bow Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I agree with your interpretation and with what the song says.. I feel that way..people are too ruthless and cruel and I will never give in or give up. Just live my life my way for me and always take what I believe is the higher road, but again, I will never give in or give up on my life because the trend is to be ruthless these days. | |
| Breaking Benjamin – I Will Not Bow Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i love it! heard it for the first time last night on my way home... | |
| Godsmack – Serenity Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I think this song is about connecting with our higher selves or god in effort to free ourselves from the ego and material/physical pains of this life... to find peace in knowing there is more than just this life... and if we try to free our minds and see our lives thru the eyes god would see us... then we may feel comfort and that peace... this is very hard to do and yes you need to be able to meditate, but it does help free you from stress and other burdens you may be going through... or you could just get stoned... lol | |

| Evanescence – Lose Control Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
she is later saying if she treats him like an object and just uses him she may destroy him. to me, i think flowers in the dust simply means, skip the romance, make it only about sex. |
|
| Taylor Swift – White Horse Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| All I can say is the part where she says she had to leave the small town... that's my story, I left my hometown of 28 years... mostly because it was over with him and for 6 months after I moved away he played this game with me as if we were going to eventually get back together but all along it was just a game and i closed the door literally and said THAT'S IT I AM DONE. | |

| State of Shock – Money Honey Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| how about when you had money and a family's business and your guy was so in love with you, wanted to marry you, but as soon as your dad died from heart failure and your mom became disabled from a stroke and the business AND money was gone, the ass decides it's too much and doesn't love you anymore and leaves. I wasn't the spoiled one, he was... he only wanted to be with me for money. Do you agree? | |
| Kanye West – Heartless Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I'm kinda feeling both those songs. I've been burned 3 times now by a guy I've been with on and off for 2 1/2 years. He was madly in love with me, then started playing games with during a time I lost my dad to heart failure, my mom nearly died from a stroke directly after and we lost our family home. The money ran out and he went from wanting to marry me and have a nice wedding during the holidays to leaving me and downgrading our relationship to a no label fling in which he started using me for sex and money... finally cut ties with him and moved, changed my number, etc. He is a heartless fucker. |

| i'm a woman who's being treated this way by my boyfriend right now... and don't understand how someone can just turn their feelings off and on the way he has :-( I gave up so much for him and now he doesn't even want me to give him the love he begged for in the beginning... wtf?! | |
| Hinder – Get Stoned Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| lots of fighting in the relationship... so they get stoned and it all seems okay or they are oblivious to why they were fighting cuz they're too high and they have sex... she's still pissed off at him but her inhibitions are gone due to weed so the sex is awesome... been there and sorta there in my current relationship once again... minus the weed but still... and yea... guys i've been involved with tend to love me more and want me more when i am not sober... maybe i need to always be high or drunk who knows... this song totally reminds me of the last few months i was with my exhusband... he got stoned all the time and i would get pissed because i wanted "normal" and for him to quit, but then i would be so stressed out from the arguing and smoke some too... then we'd fight and have sex.. how sado maschistic of me | |
| Atomship – withered Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I still say serial killer stalker :p it just has this kinda psycho sound to it, neither calming or depressing... but just my opinion. Sorry, it's just my opinion. | |
| Course of Nature – Caught In The Sun Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Oh and BTW... after all that time with this guy, we got married only to have him leave me and file for divorce just 8 months later. So, I shoulda listened to my gut instincts about him, he was living with another girl only 2 months after leaving me. But in case anyone is wondering... after several crappy relationships on the rebound after my divorce, I think, well know I have finally found my soulmate. And believe it or not, I have talked with him about certain times in our lives and he was going through a very trying time at the same time I had been going through what I call a spiritual awakening. We have both had very similar dreams about what seems to be a past life. No I'm not crazy and neither is he... It's no crazier than believing in god or Jesus, etc. These are just our "religious" or shall I say spiritual beliefs. Organized religions suck in my opinion. I believe in following your gut on these kind of things, not a book. But anyhoo... is there anyone else that believes this song could be about soulmates and that kind of thing. Not soulmates like at match.com where they match you up with someone just like you. Anyway, that song is such a touching song... | |
| Course of Nature – Caught In The Sun Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| This song is so ironic for me. When this song first came out I was at a point in my life where I had been with someone for nearly 10 years and was wondering where it was going and if we were going to get married and so on. Well, I got the vibe from him he didn't want to be with me, but he kept telling me to trust him that if he didn't want to be with me he wouldn't be. I kept wondering, did I miss my soulmate or something. Had he died or did I miss my chance with him? I was very depressed and started to go though this discovering my own spirituality and belief system. I do believe in soulmates, reincarnation and the like. And when I heard this song for the first time and every time since I get chills from it because of a dream I had before I ever heard it. In my dream I was searching for my soulmate and I came to see someone and the sun kept getting in my eyes when I tried to see his face and then I woke up. Kinda a weird coincidence that not long after that dream this song started playing on the radio. Talk about getting chills... I still get them everytime I hear this song... | |
| Atomship – withered Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I think this song sounds kinda creepy... like he's obsessed with her. And the not breathing part about the girl in his room??? So there's a dead girl in his room. Everywhere I find lyrics on this song they say what is posted here. For some reason I thought he was saying "sultan smile" and "lay right down, die dreaming of you." And sultan smile has been used in other places before... go google it. I believe it means to be a devious or wicked or maybe even seductive smile. I think it also makes more sense for the song. Because from the way he says it's 2 in the morning and his eyes are wide open and mentions a girl not breathing in his bedroom... well it just sounds obsessive and creepy... like a serial killing stalker or something. Just my opinion... | |
| Evanescence – Good Enough Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| You are entitled to your opinion, but this song shouldn't be overanalyzed by someone who's been in or read about crappy toxic relationships. This is about finally being able to let go and be yourself in a relationship because you finally found a person that accepts you for you. Too many times someone does "anything" for someone for the wrong reasons which is bad, but that's not what this songs about or at least it doesn't seem bad to me. If and when you do find a good person and have a healthy relationship there is nothing wrong with sacrifice. You do have to give a little for the other person to let them be happy too. That's what I believe she means by "I can't say no to you." She finally feels safe in her own skin, safe enough to be herself and therefore good enough. A relationship where this is not a mutual thing would be a negative relationship. Hopefully, by her saying she feels good enough, this is saying it's a mutual thing. Okay.. I'm going to stop before I go on and on and overanalyze it myself. BTW, this is a song I really want played at my wedding or reception to my fiance. | |

| Evanescence – The Last Song I'm Wasting on You Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| this song sounds literally like what i went through with my abusive ex. i was good as gold to him and he beat me and the last time i let it happen he tried to kill me and i actually found my way out the door and decided NO MORE... i always wondered how abusers, like him, can say they love you then try to beat you and then try to kill you as they almost all eventually do. i could never have done what he did to me to someone i loved. | |
| Bette Midler – Wind Beneath My Wings Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| This is a great song to be played at a funeral service. My dad just passed last Saturday, he always wanted this song played, so we played it for him. I really wish I could have sang it for him instead, but I was just too tore up over his loss and my mom really needed me there with her. | |
| Avenged Sevenfold – Seize The Day Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is beautiful... it does remind me a lot of gnr both november rain and dont cry... i loved gnr back in those days... loved those songs... right when those gnr albums came out a good friend of mine (an ex actually) really was into them and he died in a car accident a few monts later and they were played at his visitation/funeral. Beautiful song, reminds me of how I'm feeling in current relationship, eveything seems so perfect for us, I keep thinking something is going to go wrong and how hard it would be if I lost him. I know I'm not going to lose him by him just leaving me, things are too good, but what if something happens to him. I've lost alot of people in my lifetime, that's why I try and never take my time with him for granted. I love him and thank god he's in my life and will live everyday as if it's our last. | |

| Sarah McLachlan – Do What You Have To Do Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Also, I would like to add that the part of the song where she says "deep within I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you," well to me that reminds me of this one time a couple of months ago where I had said to my ex, sometimes I wonder what I'm here for, is there any meaning to my life, and he answered back that he believe I was sent here on this earth just for him, to help him through all his struggles and nothing else. That really freaked me out when he said that, but it made me feel even worse about myself. It made me feel as though he thought I was useless if not just for him. It almost sounded romantic the first few times he said he thought I was an angel sent from heaven for him, but now I see he was sick for really believing that I could only exist for him. | |
| Sarah McLachlan – Do What You Have To Do Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I relate to this song in that I was in a very abusive relationship. And even though he was very abusive there was just something there, some kind of connection that made it so hard to say goodbye. It finally ended last month when he nearly beat me to death. I finally said ENOUGH! I had him arrested for the 2nd time and that was it. I'm done. But although I know I can never be with him again because he could really hurt me or even kill me, I still am finding it hard to let go. There were good memories. I did love him. I loved him so much that I tried to help him through his problems, but only he can do that now. And now that it's over, and he's gone and in jail, there are still nights that I get to missing him and the good times we shared. I see him everywhere I look. He haunts me. Sometimes I see him when things were good, but then sometimes I see him when he was in a rage and I'm glad he's gone. But I still am finding it so hard to let it go, to let him go. I know I can't be with him, but it's just so hard to let go. So, I am doing what I have to do to get through this. I'm going to therapy for all my mixed emotions and I'm taking back my life. | |
| Chevelle – Closure Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I agree with SoakedinMercury. I, too, am going through a similar thing in my life, trying to find myself. It took many bad relationships and this last one mainly where I was in a violently abusive relationship and he almost killed me. I had him arrested for the 2nd time for beating me up, but this time he nearly killed me and I realize I had to not only move on from him, but move on with my life. Now I'm trying to find closure because even though he hurt me on so many different levels, I still find myself missing him, but I know we can never be again because he would only do it again, if not kill me the next time. So, I'm struggling with moving on and in so much pain, but I know eventually I will be a much stronger person for it. I know that I need to have my own identity and not keep getting into relationships that hurt me or stall me from figuring out who I am and what I'm passionate about. | |
| Adema – Promises Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Well, for me this song means a lot. I just got out of a really abusive relationship, where this guy would go off on me verbally and physically and I would put up with it because he was always "sorry" and promised to stop and get help. Thing is, he never was really serious about changing. He'd go to therapy and bullshit the therapist and me, then we'd leave and he'd go right back to the same behavior and wouldn't try to change anything. So, the 3rd time is the charm, he beat the crap out of me one night, just 2 weeks ago in fact, he busted my head open and nearly killed me. He went back to jail for the 3rd time and he's going to be there for quite a while and I am not going to fall for his "pity" me routine and endless promises ever again!! I hope he enjoys being treated like the abused little bitch for a change while he's in jail. | |

| Trapt – Victim Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I'm not trying to be picky just thought I'd post the correct lyrics. These are the lyrics out of the CD liner: Let me play I've been dying to let you in It's all I want to be So wont you take it from me I wonder why the less I get the more I give It's all I want to be So wont you take it from me I want your eyes I want your eyes on me I want your eyes I want your eyes on me I want your eyes I want your eyes to see I want someone to notice me I want to be your new victim I want to be your new victim No regrets... even if it's all I get It's all I want to be So wont you take it from me It still hurts It's never easy to forget Do I want to be, well you never asked me I want your eyes I want your eyes on me I want your eyes I want your eyes on me I want your eyes I want your eyes to see I want you to notice me I want to be your new victim I want to be your new victim I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here I'm right here So come and get me! So come and get me! I want to be your new victim I want to be your new victim I want to be your new victim I want to be your new victim I'm not really sure what this song means, other than what the words say. |
|
| Sarah McLachlan – Good Enough Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I have always thought this song is from a woman's point of view to another woman... not in a lesbian/gay way, but as a friend. Many women in abusive relationships have always depended on a man for their support and self esteem and acceptance when all they needed to do is reach out to a friend for that support. I think women or anyone in an abusive relationship for that matter, they're in this cycle that they go from one abusive relationship to another when they need time to themselves to heal and during this time they can lean on family and friends for support instead of fall back into the same old pattern. I can see a woman telling another woman, hey, I'm your friend, I'm here for you, and YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH!! YOU DON'T NEED HIM TO VALIDATE YOU!! LEAN ON ME, WITHOUT ANY JUDGEMENT. You get my point. I just think too many people take friendships for granted. Why can't there be a "love" song to a friend? It doesn't have to be that kind of a love song to still be a song about platonic love for another person. This is just a song from one person to another telling them they are more than good enough and deserve to be treated better. JMO... | |
| Evanescence – Imaginary (Fallen version) Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I've always wondered if perhaps, dreams are reality and "reality" is the dream that we all need to wake from. The "real" world seems more insane these days then my dreams. But anyway, this song reminds me so much of myself when I have gone through depression. I would escape to my dreams a lot, then I would write about my dreams. Whether you think that is insane or not, it really was theraputic and helped me with my depression to write about them. | |
| Evanescence – October Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This could be about a relationship with god (regardles of religion). Or it could be about a relationship with a controlling/abusive man who thinks he is god. Either way, it sounds like she has given up who she is for this god/man. She's let him break her into thinking she cannot live without him and how he is the only one that is there for her when she needs someone. That's just my take on the lyrics, to be honest, I have never actually heard this, I will see if my boyfriend who is a big Evanescence fan has it. I may have to hear it too to really get the meaning. Sounds like another beautiful song by them though. | |
| Saliva – Always Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I know this song probably has a different meaning, but I get the feeling that the first part of it is from the guys perspective and the last is from the girls perspective. The girl's starting when it says I see the blood all over your hands and does it make you feel like a man. That's just my opinion. And Drugly I can relate to what you're saying, it's been 3 years this month that my ex filed for divorce. Just walked out and never talked to me about why. 8 years together, but just 8 months of marriage, go figure. I'm pretty bitter about love now and don't think I could ever open up again with anyone else. Our's was a pretty emotionally abusive relationship too, but he could do no wrong, I asked him if we could get couseling, go to church together, whatever it would be to sort our feelings out and he said nope. Even after years in a relationship together, the 1st year of marriage can be pretty tough, but he didn't even stick around that long. Basically, he was cheating, I mean it took him 30 days to move in with another girl, but he told me a couple of times after that, that he would love me til the day he died. Whatever... he always tried to make me sound like the mixed up and crazy one to my family and his friends, well I think he was the one with big issues, and even HIS friends said that. See, told ya I am still bitter over it, but at least I'm not in denial about it all like I had been for 2 years. Sorry for getting personal... once I start, it's hard to make me stop... | |
| Chevelle – Emotional Drought Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| What makes me mad is this website is about what a song means to "you," and many people on here want to tell people that it can't be this and it can't be that. Well... maybe not... not to you. The way I take it, many or most songwriters take from whats going on in society or around them. I just believe Chevelle, along with many other artists have written lyrics about society today. And yes that includes the US government and society in general. | |
| Chevelle – Another Know It All Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Well, this is songmeanings.net. And I do see some political reference myself and sorry if you do not, it's all how we connect with it. And I believe brothers doesn't necessarily mean siblings. Brothers can be a metaphor. Humankind, or in the US maybe it's your nieghbor... who knows? That is how I interpret many songs. Many Artists like to use metaphors for things. But that's just my opinion. I think it's about forcing people into thinking one way, his way, with the use of force. Maybe its just how this society is trying to take us back, instead of moving forward. I find that in a lot of the songs on this album. | |
