Underoath – You're Ever So Inviting Lyrics 19 years ago
uh, but they did change? their lyrics are entirely better. their scream is so much heavier/deeper, resembling the likes of throwdown and norma jean, and their music isn't as contrite and repetitive as before. they have definitely matured. maybe now that their music isn't so prepubescent-friendly there won't be those annoying girls getting in the way at every show.

The Receiving End Of Sirens – Flee The Factory Lyrics 20 years ago
It clearly isn't just about robots, all their songs have something deeper than just the words and the title clearly gives that indication. He uses words like "skin" and "veins" to show the relationship between humanity and figurative robot. Robots don't have pulses that reverberate (although their power source could be seen as that) nor a malleable shell, they are usually built tough. And he also says conductive, which goes along with comingclean's analysis of experiences molding the person.

Thrice – That Hideous Strength Lyrics 20 years ago
"He knows that if we dont get in line and get our faith where it needs to be, and "end" is comming. Listen to him people!"

lol those are the exact opposite thoughts of Dustin. I'm not saying I know his thoughts, but every other of his lyrics suggest his faith is his and his only, and he's not forcing or suggesting anything else to anyone else.

Atomship – agent orange Lyrics 20 years ago
Either what "theotherness" said is correct, or maybe they censored it to poke fun at how censored America is...

Thrice – Don't Tell And We Won't Ask Lyrics 20 years ago
It's easy to interpret this as abortion, but if you take all the lyrics there's no way he wasn't conveying our blindness in following the government and politics. The first four lines depict this very evidently:

paint the target
we don't need no evidence
flood the market
we do it all in self defense

Give us a target and tell us to shoot, we don't need any reason or evidence. They're threatening us, so we'll attack them first.

System of a Down – Chop Suey! Lyrics 20 years ago
What JofaGuht sums it up for me. It fits pretty much every part of the song. I don't think this one is about drugs. That would be a little farfetched for the lyrics.

Silent Drive – The Punch Lyrics 21 years ago
This is about a couple of people who did something apparently illegal and now have guilty conscience (much like The Raven.) They escaped, but now they can't do exactly what they had wanted because they almost got caught. They can't choose what happens, but they can choose the paths that get them there. This has some of my favorite lyrics of SD.

Silent Drive – The Professional Lyrics 21 years ago
This is pretty easy to analyze. Someone did something to the narrator (that apparently is bad/humiliating) and the narrator is rotting away planning revenge.

Silent Drive – Rooftops Lyrics 21 years ago
At first it sounds like some guys in jail who are refusing to admit they are guilty, but their friends sold them out and got them incarcerated. Then it says the piece about the black eyes, which makes me think that they became prison-bitches or something. Then on the last paragraph it seems like it's about some guy who's too afraid to do anything while his friends are having fun.

Silent Drive – Henpecked Lyrics 21 years ago
You would have never taken all this weight off your back
If I knew the time I wasted
I saw you reaching out for help this time
Keep those eyes up so I can see them
'Cause I'm throwing out the biggest right
This time we've just run out of reasons

It's time to fight
You always wanted to see more
When you were all I wanted you for
It's time to fight
When I believed those unbelievable eyes
And that smile that turned me red

Wait stop, who the hell are you?
We are the fabulous, the mythical two
Can't stop us this time
No stopping us this time
We're just blindly driving lives again
Until we crash
Until one of us bends

It's time to fight
You always wanted to see more
When you were all I wanted you for

We claimed to make our dreams come true
We're going to do it now
By colouring each one and other black and blue
We claimed to make our dreams come true
We're going to do it now
by colouring until it stops

Let's get ready to rumble!

[can't make out what he says here]

We're ripe tonight
We're going to stop this timeline
We're ripe tonight
We're going to stop this timeline now


I think this is about a couple that had been together for a long time and decided to have sex, but it wasn't all it was cracked up to be.

Silent Drive – Davey Crockett Lyrics 21 years ago
I'm afraid to close my eyes
Afraid to hear phones ringing just to realise
The words on the other side
Your first sigh might break my heart
And we don't have the technology to fix something like this
These words on the other side
These words will break my heart
And I have been dreaming for years
About these imposters, they're trying to pose like you
Since bright smiles and eyes and hands like these
are not that easy to confuse
And believe me when I've tried to replace the things I lose
With bright smiles and eyes and hands like these
I'm not that easy to confuse
And believe me when I've tried to replace the things I lose
with words so easily fail
with words so easily fail


I think the above is more correct. I think it's about someone replacing someone they used to love, or someone that died.

Silent Drive – Banana Rejection Lyrics 21 years ago
I can't figure out that last part. This is what I have decrypted:

And I won't smile, I'll blow this kiss away
And no one stops the wind
Let's stop this useless laugh of uncomfortable silence
And swallow that this is not how love's supposed to follow
And I know things won't be fine until we cut the line and stop these feelings

Come one get what's yours
"Kick me, come on kick me with fucking feeling"
We'll stay right here and will love suffice?
And nothing lasts forever
Like the summer when love fell together
You fought, you smashed three times as excuses flood those streets that night

So you wish you could be right this time
All the falsities would fall behind
But you lost what you won, and thats just fine.
So you paint the picture, draw the line
But the beauty can't be cropped this time

And it turns your insides out and lose your mind
and thought you're coming home, and you're welcome (YOU)




I think it's about a couple that fell in love, but love isn't enough to keep them together. Over time they grew apart and it's not worth being together anymore.

Silent Drive – 4/16 Lyrics 21 years ago
Silent Drive is great. I'm friends with the drummer, Dave Joyal. I went and saw them play in Charlotte about a month ago. Good stuff.

I think this song is about either leaving people you know, such as graduation, or how you want something to go the way you planned it, and everything went wrong. You can cry about it, mourn, whatever, but the best way to deal with it is to smile every time you think about it and think about the good impact you had on the people you knew.

Thrice – Hoods On Peregrine Lyrics 21 years ago
I have something for Thricefold:

Although I do agree with the fact that schooling is on the decline (in comparison to recent years) it is still far from pointless. Many people are learning things in, say, Calculus. They most likely will never have to use it again, and ask why they should learn it. The truth is that in learning that you expand your brain and allow other information to be stored. It works much like muscles. The more you work them, the more powerful they get. School is also a good place to open someone up socially... as well as close them.

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
- Mark Twain

As for the song, antisocialkatie pretty much summed it up. I love how they used the term "barons" to describe the government.
