Minus the Bear – The Fix Lyrics 16 years ago
i kind of agree with boyslikebullets. but it may be about sex in a pool, that's just not the only thing. but i do think it's about lust and letting go and just doing what your body wants to, haha. but there's more to living.. than just like, worry. he's saying to live in the moment.

The Honorary Title – Stay Away Lyrics 16 years ago
“about the romantic dynamic between two individuals when one person has more emotionally invested than the other,”

i love this song
it's amazing.

Manchester Orchestra – Golden Ticket Lyrics 17 years ago
i agree that it's about someone who drank too much and lost a relationship that was important to them, and i guess it does seem like it's from a father talking to their kid. "How I wish that you’d sold me on all of those big goads" - he wishes that he'd been able to be convinced on how to be "a good father, not a careless liar."

i love when he says, "am i really that old, ignorant or too slow," and the very last line too.

submissions
Manchester Orchestra – I Can Barely Breathe Lyrics 17 years ago
"someone's got the answers,
but i'd rather think there's nothing to be found"


this is incredible.

i love when he says, "so when you see me falling backwards down the wall that says i'm still alive.." just the way he says it.

Gregory and the Hawk – The Bolder Thing to Do Lyrics 17 years ago
i love meredith. her songs are so honest and stinging and i think that they're things that so many girls can relate to, put to music. she's amazing. and i agree with the people that have said a lot of her songs seem like they're about unrequited love//being used by a guy.

submissions
Daphne Loves Derby – Are Two Chords Not Enough, Dear? Lyrics 17 years ago
I think it's about that too ^ like.. they made this huge sacrifice, and really, it was kind of for nothing, or for a disappointment? Like everything seemed better before they actually got to it. I don't know
But it's a really good song, and I like how he repeats "we gave our lives to learn how to fly on our own" later in the CD.

submissions
Maria Taylor – Clean Getaway Lyrics 17 years ago
the part where she says, "And there were friends.../
They looked just like my own/With no face, no name, no voice i know"

i've been wondering. do you think she's saying that she doesn't really know her friends?

this song is amazing, i keep listening to it on repeat.

submissions
Maria Taylor – Lost Time Lyrics 17 years ago
i agree. this is a lot better than conor's new work haha.
and it's better than 11:11!
i love it so much.

her lyrics are better, more mature, and idk. her music is just different but in a very good way.

anyways. i think maybe runrunrun is right, and i love the last part: "we lost some time, now we're making it up."

Bright Eyes – Lime Tree Lyrics 17 years ago
fuck. this song's lyrics are amazing. really. i thought this album was a disappointment. mostly, i don't like it, even though i've only listened to it once through. but some of his lyrics, i read them, and i'm like, damn, conor still has it.

"Don't be so amazing or I'll miss you too much" ah, that line kills me, along with some others-"I felt naseous with the truth" that i can just relate w/ too much.

submissions
Bright Eyes – Classic Cars Lyrics 17 years ago
shit, this song is really amazingly written. it kind of reminds me of "take it easy (love nothing)" just because, i guess, i always thought that was an older woman too. i don't remember if he says that in the lyrics, but i got that from it, and this seems like this is too - "She said I kissed her different, that all the men her age were mean"

submissions
Bright Eyes – Make a Plan to Love Me Lyrics 17 years ago
yeah, i think this is conor asking someone that's kind of materialistic, kind of unappreciative, like, could you fit me into your plans? and like, could you make time for me?

Daphne Loves Derby – How's It Going to End? Lyrics 17 years ago

Azure Ray – November Lyrics 17 years ago
"And then I'll cry so hard to these sad songs
And the words still ring once here, now gone
And they echo through my head everyday"

that always happens to me. i see something or someone and they remind me of a lyric, or a sad lyric. sometimes this song.

i think this is the perfect song to listen to while laying on your bed in dim light and just taking it all of the way in and probably crying. this song really makes me cry. sometimes i can't listen to it because it's too sad, and it makes me reflective, and i don't always want to be reminded of this stuff. but it's so amazing.

Didn’t I find you? Didn’t I find you?


god, that's amazing. i love this cd.

Ronnie Day – My Only Friend Lyrics 17 years ago
you guys are right when you say that it's about him. he said before he played it that "this is a song i wrote for myself" haha. it was cute and this song is really good but-
"His room smells like crying" that is funny to me. what does crying smell like? but the rest of the song makes up for it haha.

Ronnie Day – Lived, Learned, Loved, And Lost Lyrics 17 years ago
i saw him ronnie live the other night and this song is really sad because of the lyrics but also because right before he played it [acoustic, by the way, which was amazing], he told us about how he went to CA to record his album and then when he came back his girlfriend of 3 years was with someone else.

Kevin Devine – Country Sky Glow Lyrics 17 years ago
ou carry the beach in your way too short hair
that you shaved off last week

this could be my favorite song by him. ALL of the lines are quotable.

Owen – That Mouth Lyrics 17 years ago
i think it means.. they were having an affair, they used to have a lot of sex, and she was uninhibited, so that's why he says the line "i have my doubts you kiss your mother with that mouth." and then either they broke up, or just stopped having sex, and now they're being just friends. and he wanted her to break up with her boyfriend but "it's becoming more and more clear that your vampire boyfriend isn't going anywhere." - she has no intention of breaking up with her boyfriend.

submissions
Kevin Devine – You'll Only End Up Joining Them Lyrics 17 years ago
this song's meaning is amazing. i think kevin's really familiar with this subject, because of how his dad died-and i think it probably just made him drink and do drugs even more.
it's really sad, but really good. and it just makes the song mean more.

submissions

submissions
Kevin Devine – Me & My Friends Lyrics 17 years ago
i love this song-
" me and my friends
we don't encourage discipline
or really much of anything.
we do our drugs 'till we're lit up.
tell ourselves that this is love.
but it's never added up
and it will never be enough.

it's the same corner booth,
the same smith street bar,
the same sour mouths,
and the same empty arms.
forever and ever our lives
on a loop.

it's the same dollar draft,
the same whiskey words,
the same hanging heart,
and the same old scorched earth.
we're further and further
away from the truth.

i wanna stop it.
i wanna stop it.
i wanna stop it.
but it's the only life i know how to live

we make a mess of what matters
give our good grace away
we try to drink the clock backwards
and pretend like nothing’s changed

but you think i’m a liar, but you think i’m a fake
and i think you’re a coward, but it’s not what i say
i call you my brother, and you call me the same

i wanna stop it.
i wanna stop it.
i wanna stop it.
but it's the only life i know how to live

let the smear words spill out of the sides of our mouths
go be my ghost and i’ll go be yours
but tonight brother, pour me one more
oh tonight brother pour me one
yeah tonight i’ll just cut you one more
yeah tonight i’ll just cut you one more"

it's like he hates the hypocrisy of everything, but he doesn't say anything about it because it's all he's ever known.

Kevin Devine – Just Stay Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this. when he says, "you started practicing? I never got the note" it's sarcastic and makes me laugh.

and when he says, "she says it's pretty but you hate yourself! I can hear it clear as day!" I love when he starts to scream.

this song is great.

Bright Eyes – Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and to Be Loved) Lyrics 17 years ago
I could never ever pick a favorite bright eyes song, but at one point, this one may have been it.

I listened to it in the car with my mom
when he said, "I'm not angry, it happens-
you just can't do it again" and everything;
she cried.

amazing. amazing amazing.

The Good Life – Inmates Lyrics 17 years ago
stinging.

"Now you’re the wolf in second-hand clothing
I’m the sheep in a pleated skirt
It’s an awkward form of payback
But if it works for you it works
It’s that I recognize your off-white lies
Still, I lie beside you, and that’s what really hurts"
