Auf Der Maur – Skin Receiver Lyrics

21 years ago

This song may be about bullying and people using someone they've never seen before as their new puppet to torment. It says she needs to try and avoid them "avoid the eye of contact." It says there's nothing you can really do to stop them from hurting that person, but that it cruses them. It also says that anyone's capable of hurting, "the brew's in all of you" This is my favorite song by Auf Der Maur. It's very good and moving.

Hooverphonic – Green Lyrics	21 years ago
I think that this song may be more about men and women in general more than a specific man and woman. I think that it means guys often take control and women have less a decision as far as what to do, that they just have to be patient and try and understand what a man is trying to do. And that it's always better for a man. Even if I disagree with this, it's still a great and a very extreme song.

PJ Harvey – Joy Lyrics	21 years ago
I think this song may be about a woman who's born with a disability or sickness of some kind and she can't leave her house. She's not alowed to leave and see the world and the people. When she says "I've been believing in nothing since I was born, it never was a question" it suggests that she hasn't changed much since she was born which supports my theory.

PJ Harvey – Big Exit Lyrics	21 years ago
I also think that this song is about suicide. When she says "...all trying to do something no one else has done" it reminds me so much of my friend always getting angry when you do things she does or she likes...she yells at people for it and I can relate to wanting to kill yourself over it.

PJ Harvey – Down By The Water Lyrics	21 years ago
This song is about how a woman who finds her daughter under a bridge. She had just lost her virginity and she's no longer the little girl her mother had known. She takes her home as an adult and the fish represent how she wishes she could have her little girl back.

PJ Harvey – The Garden Lyrics

This song is obviously about two men...one of them desparately wants somebody, anybody. Another comes to him, they kiss, and he's gone the next morning. It's about the desparate one being taken advantage of 'cause it says "I will give you gold and mountains if you stay a while with me" and "they kissed and the sun rose, he walked a little further, and he found he was alone." He was taken advantage of and ended up worse off than at the beginning of the song. It's a great song and very meaningful to me.
