| Straylight Run – Mistakes We Knew We Were Making Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
to me, this song refers to a relationship that two people got themselves into and while they were starting it they knew it was wrong (for whatever reason, maybe one of them had someone else, or it was a friends ex or something)... so they go through wiht everything only for it all to blow up in their faces... they knew it was a mistake but they made it anyway. so they realize that they were wrong and they are only tormenting themselves by wondering how much better things would have been if they didnt bother with it. they accept that they made a mistake and have to learn to live with it. the song talks about all the mistakes we make in relationships. everyone goes wrong so many times and makes so many mistakes and so many bad decisions... until, one day, we finally find the right person. and we need to learn to forgive ourselves for what we did. we can't change the past and we cant change whats been done. we have to accept our own imperfections and move on. |

| Damien Rice – I Remember Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| i believe this song is a story being told from two different perspectives... lisa sings from within the relationship, she talks about how it began and remembers it fondly, and then expresses later that she needs him there and she can't believe what shes found and how lucky she is to have found it... and nothing can destroy her happiness... except maybe the end of them. damien then comes in and is telling the story from the end of the relationship. he's heartbroken and in his first verse is explaining the ways he's been trying to get over her- meaningless nights with different girls, trying hopelessly to find the joy he had before. then he is yelling at her and expressing all the pain he is going through and asking her what it is she wants... maybe if he gives her that thing, she'll take him back... or maybe he believes she is putting him through all this pain because he did something, and he needs to rectify it... | |
