| 3 Doors Down – Be Somebody Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This song is right how I am just now. i'm leaving home in september to go to uni, and i'm feeling like I can't wait to get out, be my own person rather than who my parents want me to be. I'm pushing at the boundaries because I'm not a child any more - they need to trust me to make my own decisions and live my life 'the best way that i can'. | |
| Tom McRae – 2nd Law Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| hmm yeah sometimes i feel just like this. like it would solve every problem just to drift away and watch it all from a distance. remove myself to somewhere peaceful and view my life with detachment | |
| Tom McRae – The Boy with the Bubblegun Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
i love the two lines "If words could kill I'd spell out your name" and "If songs could kill this one's for you" he's reached the end of his tether with this person - it's kind of scary how much hate comes across in the lyrics. but also frustration - he can't do anything and he can do as much damage as a boy with a bubblegun. he wishes that songs and words could kill (and we all breathe a sigh of relief that they can't...) |

| Tom McRae – Draw Down The Stars Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
i think those couple of lines... "This fluorescent night will divide us And dissolve to a flickering screen " are so beautiful. they're the type ofwords that give you a picture in front of your eyes as you read them |

| Delirious? – Deeper Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| this so sums up me and God. i come off a week away or back from soul survivor thinking "YES! i'm going to go full on for God" and i mess up and think it's not worth it any more. but our father's always waiting to catch us: " Hold me in your arms, Just like any father would ". he believes in us and will give us the strength and power to go out and live for him again, no matter what we do. | |
| Delirious? – August 30th Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| do you reckon it's the day he became a Christian? he talks of " this love that saved me " and of "the chance to live again". i always wondered why that particular date was the title, and that's the only reason i can come up with. | |
| Delirious? – Bliss Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
It seems like he's talking to two separate people. He's talking to god for the first 4 lines, the first 2 lines of the 2nd verse and the last 4 lines of the song. And then to a friend who doesn't believe in God for the rest of the song. It's about trusting in your faith even when others around you say it's a load of rubbish. He says that he's torn between longing for God (lonely when it's you i miss) and feeling nuts for believing in something he can't see (crazy when i dream like this). But then he meets God and thinks, "yeah this is for real" and it's 'bliss' even when his friend tells him he's wrong, he says that he's 'not backing down' and he won't 'bow down to you'. I love the next couple of lines: "If I'm right then you are wrong If I'm wrong then I really lived And if I die with no reward Then I know I had peace cos I carried the sword " If he's right, and God exists, then his friend is wrong. Even if his friend is right and there's no God, then he still lived an amazing life because he was fighting for God 'I carried the sword'. Even if there's nothing at the end of it, he lived full out for God and got peace as a result. But then he ends the song by saying he loves God and won't go back on his decision to follow Jesus. Choice made; now the life to live. |

| Delirious? – Every Little Thing Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This song always makes me think of a very precious friend who has severe depression. She's not a Christian, and just has no hope. So often she feels like there's nowhere to turn -" When it's all falling down on you Your're crying out but you're breaking in two" And this song just makes me want to pray that 'every little thing's gonna be alright'. I know it will. Someday she won't be afraid or trapped - she'll be loved and safe and she'll know it. But til then I've got to try and carry her like she's carried me in the past. |
