| Nickelback – Because Of You Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Hands on the mirror --trying to balance yourself, looking at what you've become Can't get much clearer -- you can't understand, you can't see though your tears Can't make this all go away -- you can't escape, can't get rid of the pain Now that you're bleeding -- you cut yourself You stare at the ceiling -- looking up, away from yourself Watch as it all fades away: -- you feel the "relief "set in From what you do --cutting Because of you --your own fault You know I can be there -- have someone there for you It's time that you call -- you can call anytime, before it gets to far I swore not to come -- fed up with all of this But I'm here after all -- still care I know by the look that I see In your eyes --[self explainitory] I won't stand around and I won't watch you die -- can't let you do this to yourself, have to try to help From what you do Because of you What becomes of... Now that you did this You ask for forgiveness -- you feel guilty for what you did to yourself Doctor could you be my priest? -- ? You say you're mistaken But look what you've taken --you knew exactly what you were doing Your life flashed -- near death? You laugh through your teeth --your acting like you're happy when you're not From what you do Because of you You know I can be there It's time that you call I swore not to come But I'm here after all I know by the look that I see In your eyes I won't stand around and I won't watch you die From what you do Because of you What becomes of... From what you do! Hands on the mirror Can't get much clearer Can't make this all go away Now that you're bleeding You stare at the ceiling Watch as it all fades away: From what you do Because of you You know I can be there It's time that you call I swore not to come But I'm here after all I know by the look that I see In your eyes I won't stand around and I won't watch you die From what you do Because of you What becomes of... |

| Lonestar – Not a Day Goes By Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| To me, its this guy who I love so much, and I can't stop thinking about but I can'y be with because he's not ready. I have all the memories of us together that I look back on everyday. I've liked this guy since I met him and that was almost a year ago, now all I can think of is him. I'm still right here waiting for him to feel ready and it doesn't go away. As much as he knows I love him, he has no idea how I feel. | |

| That's my opinion...everyone has their own way of interpreting..i respect all of it and I can see where you're coming from. | |

Evanescence (as told by Amy lee in an interview with Muchmusic) is not a christian band, however amy, as well as maybe the other members clearly are. My interpertation is not suicide, not all people who cut themselves want to die, just to have control over at leats one kind of pain in their life. - i tried to kill the pain (she tries to make the pain go away by cutting) but only brought more (the cutting brings more stress, having to hide the scars, having people find out and get all disappointed and shit... and of course the stress of trying to break the habit before it goes too far) i lay dying (maybe not literal, slowly wasting away over something she cant control?.. the cutting is controllable so it's not from that) and i'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal (after she cuts she snaps back to reality and realises what she has done, she regrets it and is perhaps betraying a promise to someone close to her or even herslef that she would stop cutting) i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming (again with metaphorical dying, asking for forgiveness for what shes done, bleeding is a given, she screams either from the cutting or the reasons she cuts) am i too lost to be saved (has she gone too far to come back) am i too lost? my God my tourniquet (only God can stop her from going to far) return to me salvation ( she asks again for God to get her out of this, help her break the habit) do you remember me (she begins to wonder if God even cares, why he lets her do this to herself) lost for so long (she has been doing this a long time, she barely knows herself anymore) will you be on the other side (if she takes it to the next level and kills herself, will she find God again, will she go to heaven or hell?) or will you forget me i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming am i too lost to be saved am i too lost? my God my tourniquet return to me salvation my wounds cry for the grave (her scars make her seem suicidal, her arms and wrists seem like they are begging and waiting for her to cut again and take the next step) my soul cries for deliverance (she needs to find God again) will i be denied Christ (will God forgive what she has done?) tourniquet ( will God stop the bleeding?) my suicide (or will it go to far....?) |

This is such a good song, and I agree...theres hardly any comments and they are sucha great band. I have the ONLY comment on I'll Cry Tomorrow, which is my favourite song by Cauterize. I also like the way he switched the "with" and "without" in the first and last stanzas. "Just when the wounds start healing you're there to break me open. Watch the blood spill. I'm getting used to this. I'll clean it in the morning." really hits home for me. I think of it as, just when you think shits gettin better something fucks it all up again, its like a neverending circle of issues. lol. |

I think that this song is from the point of view of someone who is ina relationship that just isn't working. As much as they want it to work, they are beinging to lose faith and are "giving up too easy" because they "don't have the strength to fight" at the moment, most likely because they are sick of fighting over the same things to try to save the relationship. they have finally realised theres really nothing more they can do to save it. Definatley my favourite song by Cauterize. |
