| A Perfect Circle – The Hollow Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Since this song came out 2000?ish and Bleach began later?idk, it's kind of interesting to wonder if Kubo Tite and Maynard derived inspiration from the same place. I wonder how they envisioned the same interpretation of a Hollow, and where this Hollow came from. History, probably; but what culture? Is the idea of a Hollow Japanese? Spanish? I've always been curious. Ichigo's Hollow definitely fits this description. Love this song. |

| Usher – Moving Mountains Lyrics | 17 years ago |

It seems to be centered around a pained sense of mistrust. I lost my way He slipped up at one point, and all of the love she carried for him was shifted towards a sense of worry and created a distance between them. It's near impossible to instill a sense of security within her again after he strayed away. No matter how much they might love each other, no matter how much of a past they share, there is a space, a space she can't conquer. To get things exactly back to the way they were would be like moving mountains... It does seem to be the third part of . |

| Tool – Parabola Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Update for me...watching it again and reading into it a bit more, I've realized that the floating ball that multiplies really IS a fertilized embryo growing before his eyes...I like the whole Devo approach, but I really do believe that Parabol is two making love and joining together (conceiving) as Parabola is the growth of the child within the woman (gestation). Though I don't find it to be the only train of thought Maynard was going along with, I do believe it is one. Secondly, after having read into Astral Projection and the chakras, and, yes, looking again at the video, I see the pink and blue eyes (male and female spirit of the man) coming up through him and hitting each chakra by passing one another....I also focused on the chakra in his throat, as the eyes joined, creating his third eye, using all of his mental capacity. Nice. |

| Tool – Maynard's Dick Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Coming from a lady TOOL fan: I do indeed love this song. It is something that turns me on...and attracts me even: "Kinda like the way you're breathing I kinda like the way you keep looking away" I think that every TOOL song has at least more than one meaning...I'm not going to say that any of you are right or wrong, but I do have my own opinion of what it means: Would you like to glide on Slide a mile six inches at a time on Maynard's dick It's an invitation impossible to turn down...If someone asked me, I couldn't say no It's always been a favorite, especially the intensity of his voice. |

| A Perfect Circle – 3 Libras Lyrics | 20 years ago |

brief, yet captivating... in all the ways you have described it here before, I agree with it... but this had more and more of a pull at your heart each time you hear it, depending on what it means to you. for me it is justification for others frustration... many an endless contemplation as to what exactly it means... for now...It will just be music |

Right on Philadelphia Eagles and lethil-intentions: I agree with you both... At first, the meaning of this song didn't matter to me because this was the first song I had heard by A Perfect Circle. I am a big TOOL fan, and have an addiction to Maynard's voice...but this song...I heard just, pure, raw unrelenting vocal...It was an enlightening experience... Then I started listening to the words...and everything was so beautiful, my favorite phrase from the song is: ...to the dead... I don't care what the charts say, that is the most incredible and talented voice ever to be released by the music industry, and the fact that the lyrics actually mean something makes it, yet another one if his incredible masterpieces. I always come here for meaning, and lethil-intentions made it clear enough for me. Yeah I know, the DUI and murder theories are definitely what they're aiming at, seeing as how Thirteenth Step is all about addictions to various substances (definitely Weak And Powerless)...but this song, I liek to think of it as a relationship song. As an American I believe it as my right to interpret songs as they seem to suit me. And I take eveything into consideration. I just can't imagine how anyone could hate on this...anyone who does must listen to country all day or something....(eww). |

| Marilyn Manson – Sweet Dreams (Eurythmics cover) Lyrics | 20 years ago |

masochism is hot to me... I guess I'm just one of those people who wants to be abused... I had never heard this song until I watched House On Haunted Hill and it came up on the credits.... But it really does sound 7,000,000x better than the original, as all MM songs do...the other one just made me think of a black woman dancing, but this one gives me a dark-sexual-truth kind of vision...and, being the BDSM girl that I am, that turns me on....so now I need to hear that song around a BDSM guy like myself... |

| Tool – Parabola Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This is definitely one of their best songs (Parabol and Parabola together) and One of my goals in life is to see them play this live in concert. I have all of their music videos, some of the live ones too, but by far, the last two minutes of this video make Tool who they are, it just makes so much sense, the guy even gets a third eye (another one of their good songs). If you haven't seen it, and you love Tool, this is worth wasting your time trying to see it. Yes, FlyingAnts from he first page really has this down right, his definition of this song is what I'm going with, I'm even getting a hoodie made with the last 2 lines of this song and his definition on it. Kick ass. Maynard really does seem to be into this song, his emphasis on [Celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing] proves the definition further. It's about the difficulty and the reward of not living entirely in the past and/or the future. Making a great song to live by. The last two lines have become my favorite lines out of any song I've ever heard, and the Instrumental End is great. This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality Embrace this moment, remember: we are eternal, all this pain is an illusion. I used to think he said immortality, and that didn't quite make sense, so I looked up the lyrics and was like "Ooo..." , but once I got past that, yes, there's nothing I would change about this song, I don't think anyone would change this song matter of factly. Take Maynard's words to heart All this pain IS an illusion... |

| Tool – Eon Blue Apocalypse Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I can't believe there is only one page for this song, this is the best pre-requisite to The Patient they could have made. It is so beautiful, it does make me think of space the first 30 seconds or so, but that isn't my overall impression. I agree with hobitt420 on this: "Eon = A long period of time Blue = A color offten associated with serenity, plainness, boredom Apocalypse = The end. Long Boring End, perhaps what the fate of humanity will become if something doesn't change." If you guys are diehard fans like me, I hope to see you there on their next tour. This has got to be one if the highest anticipated albums in the rock industry. We have been waiting a long time. Does anyone else think they can top Lateralus? I hope they can. Oh well, I'll love it anyways. Still, one of their best instrumental songs. |

| System of a Down – Spiders Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
BEFORE!!! you know I will be waiting all awake... Definitely, as many of you have said, by far one of SOAD's best...I can't get over how beautiful everything comes together...Serj's voice blends so perfectly with the riffs...and the background whispers make it soothing yet unsettling. (Great Combination) The Video...wow. One of their best videos in my opinion, solely because it's alot more fabricated, dark, and imaginary than most of their other videos, because their videos like Toxicity and Chop Suey just show them playing half the time, which isn't bad, but still, Spiders video and song together... awesome. The video also remonds me of a Tool video in some ways, not that the two are very much alike, or should be compared, but the video is similar to Aenima and Stinkfist. I agree with surveillance, all SOAD songs tell us something we didn't know or notice about the government, they would never talk about a girl and her dreams...what amazes me is the fact that they're making music about government yet it sounds so beautiful. I think they make it this way on purpose... they code the music with metaphors and pretty words, so you first get into the instrumental aspect of the songs, then once you know them all and you're awaiting another album, you get curious and decide to discover the meanings, and once you do, you're so hooked on SOAD that you don't doubt it for a second. But then that makes me wonder...isn't that exactly what our government does? make themselves look so good so that we end up believeing whatever they throw at us? I don't know. All I do know is that SOAD is right for telling us to open our eyes, and keep close watch on whatever or whomever it is we are supposed to be entrusting our lives in.... |

| Crossfade – Cold Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Everyone's Right. This has been a song that all of you have been able to put to use in your own lives, to make up with someone, or to bring to realization your own fears about yourself. When it comes to what it means to me, I'm not quite sure if it's talking about me or someone who was close to me. I first heard the song in January when my boyfriend came upstairs with me to my computer and had me download it. I heard it, and from that moment I loved it (most songs for me are an acquired taste). He just started singing it like he was born to know this song. I wondered for a while if he was trying to tell me something. But he wanted to play this song with his band and everything. I even took him to a Chevelle concert with Crossfade also playing, he loved it. It's not his favorite band or anything, but he did love this song. He broke up with me almost two weeks later (March 23), after a year and a half together...and sometimes I wonder if maybe this song (what it means) was why. Was I supposed to be sorry? Was he supposed to be sorry? I'm still not sure. I think it was him though. I would never try to shut him out. I miss him alot...I don't think I should, because he's definitely not looking to rekindle our relationship. Yeah I have cutting problems like alot of you guys, but I don't think that contributed to our split. It did intensify his absence though. And, if it was my fault, please accept my apologies I never meant to be so cold... |

I sense high tension amongst you youngsters Both of you came to this particular post because you liked this song, just leave it at that. Whether you share common interest or knowledge in other bands is not the reason to post here. If you want to hate on Metallica, post on Metallica. And as to not be a hypocrite myself, I think this is an awesome song by Blink 182. I can relate it to some of my own relationships, and that's good enough for me. |

| Chevelle – Point #1 Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I bet he has alot of ex girlfriends, too. I saw them at House of Blues, Myrtle Beach, SC on March 10 and there was this girl who came on stage to hug him before they started, during a break, and after, and she was "all up ons". She was pretty, but seemed so desperate. I bet all of his girlfriends are like that....I'd do the same thing most likely if I had a chance with Pete Loeffler...moan...hot...and talented....beautiful voice...I bet he has an even better O face...O...no wonder he has so many ex-girlfriends. Incredible song. I am one of those Chevelle ultimate fan people, not worship, just my favorite band, I have all of their music...the ironic thing is though, This was their first big hit song, and it ended up being the very last song I ever heard from them. Just makes me appreciate it more....I can't wait for the next album. If they can top the first three, maybe I will worship them. And I agree with EstiloPanama on the meaning, some of the songs are about ex girlfriends, some are about Christ, I think it's about Christ. |

| System of a Down – B.Y.O.B. Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I have all of their CD's and love every song. I know that they have always been about bashing government, but it was never a big reason I listened to the music. I just love to dance real hard, slam dance, and headbang during the fast parts, and grind someone during the slow ones...and moreover, just to admire the work they did to make such fuckin awesome kick-ass music. Reading the discussions for all the songs makes me understand the political points they make, and it helps me appreciate them more. You guys have basically done a good job on explaining it, and if I thought long enough, I probably would have come to that conclusion too. This song is really great, and I love watching the video, downloading it now in fact. Guys look at me funny when I get caught up in SOAD's music, kind of surprised, and greatly intrigued, because when I get into one of their songs, I do whatever comes natural, without thinking about it. And it usually seems to work. They usually join in, whether it be singing, dancing, headbanging, or just plain horniness. I think music has some kind of aphrodisiac-ish effect on me. I hope I'm not the only girl out there who does, because if there aren't then I'm just plain creepy. Great song still, but what pisses me off is that I can't make the la-la-la sound fast enough to be in beat with the music. I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I'm going to work at it until I get it. |

| Tool – The Patient Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I completely agree with Philidelphia and Hedonbass on this one.This is the first Tool song that really got me into the band, and therefore my favorite, I am on my way to loving them all, but it's coming slowly, and knowing that I need to be patient and wait it out is indeed tedious, but still worthwhile. I did see it as waiting and being patient while your significant other prepares to take it to the next level with you, and I still do. But once your life changes and you're single again, you might take it as waiting on the other person to come back to you, asking: Is this a test? It has to be, otherwise I can't go on of course, that phase only lasts a short period of time, then, if you listen to the song again, and you've given up on their reciprocation, it moves on to be the subject of whether or not you even want to continue living and loving like you did before: If there were no desire to heal The damaged and broken met along This tedious path I've chosen here I certainly would've walked away By now OK, you're still here obviously, and you haven't walked away yet, so now it starts over again. You become close to someone again and ask yourself the same question you did however long before: I must keep reminding myself of this... If there were no rewards to reap loving embrace to see me through This tedious path I've chosen here I certainly would've walked away By now It's something you continue to do, because there is some benefit from it, rewards if you like, and it's probably something you need, which is why you've done it before I know that most likely didn't go along well with the Tool theme, but it seems to be somewhat logical. Definitely a Gorgeous song. If they were to make an MJK Limited Edition Dictionary/Thesaurus, and you looked up any/all of the words: beautiful, perfect, breathtaking, awesome, Deep, Insightful, or just Plain SiCk, you would find "The Patient". Without a doubt. |

| Deftones – Minerva Lyrics | 20 years ago |

Perfect analyzation, Pariah. Once you read the meaning, and listen to the song more and more, that becomes ever so clear. I, being a young woman now, listen to this song and the appreciation that some men have for these kinds of women, and it drives me in a way to someday be one of them. I now try to work to that goal, and theink every woman should, to make greater this appreciation. Of course, I do just like to listen to the song, because when I do, I get all numb... |

| Deftones – Change (In the House of Flies) Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
One of Deftones's best, in my eyes. I'm a growing Deftones fan, planning on getting all of their CD's as soon as I'm not a broke bitch. I've been dowloading everything so far (not exactly supporting the band), and I want to actually get the albums themselves. But any-dang-way, This song is, as most of you also believe, a song about a friend's substance abuse. it is most definitely linked to drug and/or alcohol abuse, because the music video reveals Chino in a trashed room with beer cans and liquor bottles; I haven't seen any drugs yet...because I'm dowloading the video, and so far that's all I got. I do agree with most of what the rest of you have posted, and it does help to know the meaning, but I think I'll just kick back and let this beautiful white noise creep up on my ears. (probably not the most beautiful poetry, but that is how i see it) |

| Slipknot – Vermilion, Pt. 2 Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
as many other songs i've posted for...i can become embodied in everything that it is, without it being anything I'm pretty much conviced my all the posts from vermilion that it's a stalker song, so i wont mess with that. I had been listening to vermilion for about a month before i knew about "Part 2." When i found out there was a vermilion part 2 i was like "shit. I wish i had known that sooner." It makes the pair of songs so perfect in every way: to follow up a heavy metal with a soft acoustic is genious...it is beautiful, just art at it's best. To my surprise, Slipknot pulled it off...and they did it better than anyone else could...if anyone else ever has. ...the chorus suggests that this girl is an addiction for him, he's trying to quit, trying to resist temptation to have her, because the only way he could have her would be wrong. It's hard to shut away feelings like that...really heard. |

| Fuel – Hemorrhage (In My Hands) Lyrics | 20 years ago |

|
| Fuel – Hemorrhage (In My Hands) Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
for all of my intentional purposes, this song represents relationship desperation...definite desperation... even if it's about his grandmother... once his girlfriend/wife leaves him he is so hurt; and now that he realizes he can't have her back...he wants to be with her so badly: And I wanted You turned away You don't remember But I do You never even tried The fact that she didn't try to mend the relationship hurts the most. It truly does. Don't fall away And leave love bleeding in my hands In my hands again She leaves their relationship in his hands: he's the only one in pain, the only one who still loves the other. Their love is not just bleeding IN his hands, it's bleeding FROM his hands. The song is about desperation, his desperation for her love, but the song doesn't leave me to believe that he's gotten over it yet. I become embodied in this song when it plays, now more so because it brings me to my knees in pain and tears for the desperation of someone i was with, wanting them so badly, wanting them to return the feelings THAT I CAN'T SHAKE OFF...THAT I CAN'T LET GO OF....no matter how much it still hurts me to do so... DESPERATION for RECIPROCATION |

| Staind – Outside Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
i agree with deadwish... it is most definitely about longing for the person you had, and hating yourself for doing so. Logic: If they don't want you, what's the point? You know that fact to be true, but you can't bring yourself to let it go... it becomes a battle and argument within yourself over what course of action to take...to let all of the time and energy you spent on that pseron be wasted and forgotten...or try your damn best to convince them to reconsider you.... right now i'm stuck in between those two choices... i miss him so so much, and i feel like all the pain and emotion that i've put into this relationship has been mudshoveled right up my own ass, while i have to accept it... it sucks to love love is a madwakk insayne poker game....the more you spend the more you lose. |

| Staind – It's Been Awhile Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Even if it is a cocaine addiction song, i take it as fucking up my relationship with my boyfriend... My BF and i got together a long time ago (for someone my age it was a LONG time) a year and a half actually, and it was just casual for a couple of months but after a while it became something important in my life...when i first got caught and hospitalized for cutting, he was there, and even though he didn't understand what i was doing or why i did it, being with him made it better. he left me for Oregon the entire summer (04) (we're in SC), and even though I knew he would be back, it tore me up, so bad...to not have him there, not even speak to him twice the whole summer. i cut so badly while he was gone, and to this day he does not know how much he affects my self harm...he finally came back *FINALLY!* and the world was at peace...and the more we went out, the more attached i became. every now and then when family problems arose (and believe me they did) i would cut some, but always came back to him. about January, he got a little distant, in some strange way, and we had our close moments, but he was so wound up in his band and track and football that we talked less, but were still close. we never had an argument (that bothered me), but i had a feeling that was because he was holding something back. once it hit that mindset in march i got into cutting again, and its bad... not too long afterward, he left me stone cold one day, and even if it doesn't sound like something really special here, it was for me, in so many ways, and the world which was wound around him fell apart, completely. i die every time i see a couple or hear his name or see him or his friends, moslty because there are things i could have said, ways we could talk this over....we could still talk it over now, but he thinks that there's nothing to be done....he will not work at all on this relationship. it's been two weeks, it feels so strange...i've tried to confront him about it but he just smiles at me and is like "good times, good times"....it makes him seem so empty and absent of feeling. I want to talk to him again, and tell him everything i've always wanted him to know, even if he wont be with me again. I would do anything for that guy, i want him to see that... i know this is a discussion of the song but i needed to say it...i think about this song when i think about this situation, if that justifies it. until then...i feel as if it's been awhile since i've done anything, without him any enjoyment is bittersweet, mostly bitter though. Bret, wherever you are, please hear me out, don't shut me out. |

| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Scar Tissue Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
you guys are completely right about isolation and loneliness, but as i saw on the first page with one of the first responses, this song now hits me as self harm, masochism, cutting, whatever you would like to call it... Scar tissue that i wish you saw (it may be "the" instead of "that", but i prefer "that") he's in a relationship with a girl, and he wants her to see what he does to himself, it's something he hopes would happen on its own, but hasn't. I can relate, as I have always wanted my ex-boyfirend to see mine. He just doesn't notice, or either just doesn't ask. When did this song come out? '00? '01? i don't know, but i never knew or cared about its meaning at all, i just loved listening to it....but now...i can relate completely, and the fact that i can, hurts. it is an isolation, and to love someone but be separate on some levels can be torturous. Blood loss in a bathroom stall Cannot count how many times I've done that... its kind of like someone taking a quick drag, only taking it a different way. I know most of you say cutters are psychotic, but unless you've experienced it first-hand, you can't quite understand what it means to us. definitely one of my favorite peppers songs, definitely a favorite, period. I'm even listening to it now. it is so beautiful, lyrically and aurally. Please be open to every meaning of a song. it just opens it up in so many new ways. |

| Slipknot – Vermilion Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
i agree with pixie and jessie the fact that she isnt real can be taken into so many different contexts, and both of your reasons make sense to me in my experience, the one thing i want most is what i can't have, or at least won't have me anymore. i agree with the fact that you completely love the person, and they say they do, but then it turns out they didn't truly love you that much. To be left there to obsess over the matter can be so torturous to a person. I won't let this build up inside of me |

| Deftones – Knife Party Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I know everyone here has just ridiculed all cutters for their wrist thing, and I mean, rightly so....but it really does matter for those who have experienced it first hand. I really like the other takes one this song....i never thought of those but they are really sensible...(like in seriously), women do take advantage of weak men (not all women). ....But whatever one particular person was feeling (at the time they analyzed the song) is the reason for their unique opinion on it. Whether it be women, parties, or their own self injury. ....I really see the cutting aspect...I don't find too many songs on the subject (not like heartbreak or drugs, or loooooove), and so i kind of want it to be about cutting.... I’m the new king I taste the queen the cutter tastes his/her own blood, or imagines tasting it at least: calling him the king puts him/her in control of the amount of bleeding, the queen is powerless compaered to him/her. The phrase is important because it gives the motive They cut because it's one of the few things THEY CAN CONTROL COMPLETELY |

| Chevelle – Get Some Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
I know that it's about american idol...no i didn't know that before i read the responses you guys put down, but i still think it has more meaning intended than what you guys have told me... no i dont know what it means, please dont cuss me out for my hypocrisy. it's just that chevelle writes, plays, and performs some pretty incredible music, i mean they are my absolute favorite band ever, and i think they would at least have had some more important underlying meaning than american idol, i mean seriously. But in defense of the american idol explanation, i can totally understand that that is one of the meanings, because these people have no business using everyone else's music to help them succeed. |

| Chevelle – Forfeit Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Another one of my favorite chevelle songs, just the little opening interlude before the words is mindblowing, and you guys are right, their emotions are real. I find a certain beauty in them, because they are spoken so eloquently. Pete makes magic with his mouth, and puts that magic into my ears where it stays in perfect condition until the next time i hear the song. i hope they play this at the concert too. I'm so excited! | |
| Chevelle – Family System Lyrics | 21 years ago |

I'm going to the concert this thursday Hells Yeah! Duh they're brothers, if the song is titled family system, obviously, this one's going to be about him and his brothers, just like another know it all. I'm not saying all of their songs are that easy to read, because i know theyre not, but these two are. Yes they are incredible opening songs, i hope they play all of their music at the concert, i am sooo sooo psyched, i makes me wet just to think about it. i think i might throw a pair of panties on stage with my number on it, just for them. Oh that is a good idea, definite way to have unwanted ppl call your house Brittany (I won't complain if Chevelle actually calls my house though) |

| Tool – Lateralus Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| OK, as far as the meaning of the title, the lateralus is a muscle that you cant stand without. This song is the title track of an album that was released after a five year battle with Tool's recording company, and the band definitely needed the album to keep its phenominal career going. The song itself represents growing as a band and the experiences of making music for about a decade. | |

its my pinion7 man! you don't have a lot to say, but you say it so damn right! I think this will be my last entry for tonight... redline, pinion, and crazyfrontman are all right, painfully right. I won't add anything to the interperetations, they are perfect as they are. I have done this an innumerable amount of times. I is an involuntary habit to me now. I am very limber, so in the beginning of the song(those first two bigg riffs, or whatever they're called), i bend my back over backwards, and raise my arms back up with me as i return to my original state to repeat it a second time. When the blood rushes to my head and back, i exhale all of the lies and breathe in the truth, just in time to hear the song. I just thought i'd share that. Pete makes some deep and poignantly beautiful statements in Comfortable Liar. They start out as words on paper, then become part of an electric, bass, and drum triangle. When he sings it's over(not to rip off the Deftones Minerva, which is incredible by the way) . The way his voice changes throughout puts absolute emphasis on just the right lines. More ear sex for you (if you don't get it, just read my response in Chevelle-Breach Birth). I wish i could just have an ear orgy with these guys, even if they're brothers (incest!) I am so, so tired, but i wish i could keep on going. i think i will finish up on all the other chevelle songs tomorrow. you should read my responses in the other ones. Brittany says good-bye, for she is one odd cookie. |

| Chevelle – Closure Lyrics | 21 years ago |

Just to start off...ever since I found this site (i.e., 3 days ago), I have had NO SLEEP. Its 1:04 AM right now, and I still cant stop with the discussions. When I had not yet found someone with the Point #1 cd ,I burned it, i know, shame on me:(, and This Type of Thinking wasn't out yet, i would sit in my room and ditch parties and other fun teenage things just to listen to this song, over and over and over and over and over and over.....until I was sure I could make it out of the house without it getting it stuck in my head and forgetting half the words. In fact I'm listening to it right now, as I do all chevelle songs when I discuss them, and everyone else has hit the meaning of Pete's "closure" on the head. I won't even get into that. This song makes closure in my relationships possible. I knew what he meant, and if and whenever I can't let go, I play the one and only "Closure". I just set it on repeat and don't leave the room for hours. It makes me cry, but I'm stronger when I leave the room. The bad news is you can get carried away, as with all sad-but-truthful music. When the problems of life became too much for me to handle (not my relationships, other problems), I would use this song to cut. It just brought on a certain feeling whenever I wanted to release, or "rupture" my pain. During the stanzas, i would cut it hard, then during the chorus I would let it bleed. It would drip along with the beat, and it brought on a sense of my own closure, for EVERYTHING. I held my breath till I ruptured, an artery that is, and yeah I got in serious trouble for it. That last major day of cutting was on March 7 of last year (it happened to be on my birthday of all days). I guess to subconsciously face myself, I'm going to the Chevelle concert on March 10th of this year (next Thursday actually). If they play this song, I WILL be PSYCHED, most definitely. I still cut a little every few months or so, but it's silent when I do it, as to not associate these guys with my problem. I still love the song. But that's not my detrimental vent anymore. Apparently, I'm bulimic now, and the sad part is, i like it. It is just a substitue for cutting, and i know it's dangerous, but I have only been doing it for a month now, and I will quit. I don't have a problem! Closure may make or break a person. I guess it's just breaking me. Maybe i need to meet Closure halfway, and stop confusing the soul. |

bosefasaurus (love the name by the way) "our own" is in the song, it just flows back into the final chorous, you have to listen for it, it may just sound like a bunch of ooo's and ohh's, but it's there. I can't get over how much i love every single track they make, it's like they make beautiful love for me and i buy the cd's and become a part of this orgy. it's like porn for your ears, only, it's not bad, in fact it's very good. hope i did not offend anyone, chevelle doesnt offer too many sexual references for something like that. Someone is bound to see where i'm coming from. There are just parts of songs that become orgasmic for you, and you can't help but agree with me. it's like they made this song [song(s) in my case] just for you, and only you know about the satisfaction you get from getting lost in it all. None of chevelle's music is profane, vulgar, or negatively sadistic, and it makes me feel more comfortable about enjoying it. Making love to this music would be like sensory overload times 777. it would double the pleasure of the experience, and it would bring the two of you to a new level of understanding of respect (if your partner enjoys music like you do). The new understanding might not be the pinnacle of your relationship, but it would sure help. Plus every time you hear the song, you now have a memory to go with it in addition to your original appreciation. This is one of the many chevelle songs that i just get wet over. others would include (in case you wanna experience chevelle with me): *intro (point #1 cd) Point #1 *family system comfortable liar send the pain below closure the red don't fake this forfeit grab thy hand an evening with el diablo one lonely visitor *the clincher get some vitamin r still running breach birth panic prone tug-o-war to return bend the bracket *until you're reformed yeah i know that's almost all of them. I don't have a problem! I can stop at any time! I'm not addicted! 77777777777777777777777777777777777777777 |

Thank you pinion7 and jollyradar. I think Mr. pinion's startin to grow on me, ive seen your opinions in other chevelle discussions, i like it. I'm glad neither of you see Chevelle as mainly political, because honestly, it would let me down. i like their deepness and Jesus vs. Satan music. my favorite lines are these: And the more we tense up, avoiding pain You'll never learn a thing its bound to mean something really important, i'm just bad and coming to a conclusion of my own in fear of getting it wrong (not a good habit i know). Im headed for more chevelle discussions, hoping to find more from pinion7. TO pinion7: se7en is my absolute favorite number, kind of an obsession for me. Hope it is for you too 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 |

| Chevelle – Another Know It All Lyrics | 21 years ago |

i listen to all of their songs, but this one, i just listen to less, i guess I'm not alone, there aren't many responses on it, but i think i'll add one just cause i can. i can never decifer when a song is about GWB unless they say "this song is about bush alright?" . i like the part about their sibling rivalry. i know how that goes. But my sister acts like she's a know-it-all. That's probably why they titled the song as they did. but I mean, everyone hates on bush just because he's the one in power. America has to blame someone. the one thing we know is that he does screw us over alot, but on the other hand, we could be under the executive power of someone alot worse, like stalin, or an Al-Queda (hope i spelt it right). Dont get mad at me though, I'm not taking Bush's side. |
