| Avenged Sevenfold – Beast and the Harlot Lyrics | 20 years ago |

1) I agree that thinking clean vocals is selling out is retarded. Yes it changed their sound but it was absolutely necessary because of his surgery, no other reason. And I think their new sound is beautiful, especially the harmony and how clear his voice is. 2) Regardless of no screaming, the drums and guitars still kick ass big time. 3) The lyrics remind me of Cradle of Filth material, and I like. |

| What makes me wonder about this song is the Native American chanting in this song. What tribe(s) is it from? | |

I agree with WickEd_Z. I think of this song as loving someone so much that, whether or not you could be with them, you would set yourself aside to wait until they could be yours. It reminds me of my best friend. I love him more than anything and I have for years. No matter who else comes into my life, I could never stop loving him. |

| Tool – Pushit Lyrics | 20 years ago |

And I swear instead of "Even as I tear your fucking throat away" it's "As I throw your fucking throne away" ...which would be once again denying a deity belief in it and therefore negate its existence, thus "killing" it. |

Wow... Sex, abusive relationships, premature ejaculation, schizophrenia... maybe I'm completely wrong. I interpret this song more as an issue with religion, or the concept of a god. The mellow interlude in this song is wonderful too, I might add. "But you're Pushing and shoving me You still love me and you pushit on me" Taught that God "loves" us and yet religion and the concept of a god is "pushed" onto us, pressured by society and by family morals and values to believe in something. "Take care not to make me enter 'cause if I do we both may disappear" A discussion with the deity where Maynard may be acknowledging a problem with the concept of existence. Take care not to let him reach enlightenment on the same level, to become divine and break the border of divinity to join his "god" - because then that would negate all existence in the fact that God is not all-powerful. Something like this "Slipping back into the gap again I'm alive when you're touching me, Alive when you're shoving me down" He "exists" when he can feel the presence of the deity, he is shown his existence when God slams him down by fate or whatever is causing him strife. "But i'd trade it all For just a little bit of Piece of mind" He'd trade religion to be able to think for himself and not be confined by the laws and taboos of a religion. "Saw that gap again today As you were begging me to stay Managed to push myself away, And you, as well" I think this means something like he saw where religion fails while he was also being forced to obey his "religion" but he manages to distance himself from religion and in doing so diminishes his obedience and belief in this "god." If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay," He thinks that he may lose himself in something that is organized for him to believe in, not something he designed through personal experiences and beliefs... "You minimize my movement anyway," ...constricting him through commandments as to what he should believe (as religion dictates)... and not think for himself, but live for that god. "There's no love in fear" To fear God is not to love him. It is to be afraid of a mental deity, to fear his power over all of you and, in essence, to fear for yourself. "God" does not rule by love, but by fear for your soul. "Survival is my only friend Terrified of what may come" The only thing that commands you is yourself, so Maynard knows that his own survival is what really matters. It also sounds like he is terrified of what comes after death because he doesn't know. Or doesn't like what he sees. "...as I tear your fucking throat away But it will end no other way" He has to detach from this religion and its god that demands of him in order to save himself from organized religion and its brainwashing. To deny the idea of a god is pretty much to kill it, and perhaps its existence on this realm. or i'm way off. |

| Dashboard Confessional – Hands Down Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I think this is about a couple who have sex and are sneaky about it. "The words are hushed let's not get busted Just lay entwined here, undiscovered Safe in here from all the stupid questions "Hey did you get some?"... Man, that is so dumb Stay quiet, stay near, stay close they can't hear So we can get some" - Getting some hence sex, safe in here etc. hence being secretive about it. "And I knew that you meant it" - Sincerity. |

| Ahh, high school or college... partying... experiencing a social life with friends and having fun. Best memories ever. | |
| Maroon 5 – Sweetest Goodbye Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I think this song has to do with two lovers who live far away from each other. "Where you are seems to be as far as an eternity" - Sounds like long-distance and missing someone "I’ll never leave you behind or treat you unkind, I know you understand" - Sounds like good friends "And with a tear in my eye give me the sweetest goodbye that I ever did receive." - Two people parting ways, maybe to go home. "Pushing forward and arching back Bring me closer to heart attack" - I think this is about the physical motions of sex, and the heart attack could be approaching orgasm. "Say goodbye and just fly away" - Leaving on a jet plane? "When you get home there must be Someplace here that only you and I could go So I can show you how I feel" - Showing how they feel in a secluded place sounds like sex. |
