hammainthetrees - jesse's brother went to war, this, like 03, is basically an anti war song.

Cold – When Angels Fly Away Lyrics 18 years ago
i agree with coheed-cambria, it could be a soldier. he's getting so confused about why people can be so cruel in the world, and he gets so confused that he begins to think he can see "her" being hurt too. and everything keeps reminding him of "her". so he promises to make it back.

Mew – Apocalypso Lyrics 18 years ago
its weird!! i mean, read the lyrics... best i can get out of it is theres some girl he just cant understand, he's trying to read her from the way she looks (hence her "care-lines thumbed it up", i.e. palm readin), but theyre just "dancing, dancing", and he kind of accepts that he'll never understand her. ever.

I really dont understand it. any ideas, anyone?

but i love it. :D

Bloc Party – Blue Light Lyrics 18 years ago
found this through the oc :) amazing song!!!

to me its about how there was this amazing relationship, and he loved her, but nearly didnt notice, then just as he was realising he loved her she broke up with him, and he cant bear the thought of her out there without him... he wants her to tell him its at least tearing her apart, that she cannot sleep... he wants to know he meant something to her. he's trying to tell her to come back, because love will walk her home safe every night, but loneliness wont.

and he still loves her... she's still the bluest light.

Embrace (UK) – Keeping Lyrics 18 years ago
try telling this guy it is better to have loved and lost...

he's still in love with her but he knows he'll never be over her and hes tried and tried but nothing fills up this gap thats left in his heart. so hes going to run away cos he cant face staying in the same place with her.

Embrace (UK) – Looking as You Are Lyrics 18 years ago
dang. that has really ruined the song for me. to me it was about how he loved this girl and she left him, but while she was with him it was wonderful and she saved him... and hes wondering how she did it and still looked so beautiful. cant believe its about plastic surgery!! lol

Embrace (UK) – Wish 'Em All Away Lyrics 18 years ago
i can't believe no-one has commented!! this is the best track on the album.

to me it makes the most sense if you apply it to him singing to his child, he's trying to protect the child from everything, even the devils in his dreams.

but it can equally apply to anyone you love completely - you want to keep them safe from any harm.

Thirteen Senses – Automatic Lyrics 18 years ago
he's cold inside. but she's even colder. and he can see their whole life ahead of him laid out in a line, knowing automatically the choices he has to make, and knwoing that he will make them. there is no choice. this is the way the world works.

Bell X1 – Bound for Boston Hill Lyrics 18 years ago
for me this is all about feeling empty and soulless. feeling completely alone and knowing nothing you do matters... "no headline hits happen here".

its like he's feeling so alone that he has to go somewhere to hide from his loneliness, he has to go "out into pitch black ... deep into the throat of the countryside". doesn't seem to make much sense but it's how loneliness always makes me feel.

Bell X1 – In Every Sunflower Lyrics 18 years ago
stunningly beautiful song. reminds me of an ex... it was so painful i can't describe, but nothing would make me go back and unlive that.

I wouldn't swap the pain
For never knowing you
I wouldn't swap the pain
'Cos it was worth it for the view

Frou Frou – Maddening Shroud Lyrics 18 years ago
carries on from "let go" in imagery etc., although this one is more like the response to let go.

so the person who "let go" has been sung to is saying, yeah, sometime i like to get away, but actually it feels like hell. this person is trying to express how they feel about life, but they find it really hard. so instead it just ends with "i've got a good mind to throw it all away..."

The Magic Numbers – Forever Lost Lyrics 18 years ago
Listen to the lyrics - to be going through a breakup maybe makes it easier to see. But to me this whole album is clearly more sad than happy, This song especially brings it out - it's a lot about a breakup.

The Magic Numbers – I See You, You See Me Lyrics 18 years ago
It's all about how relationships, or one relationship, go downhill, and you stop listening to what the other person really thinks and it's like you're on self-destruct.

"This is not what I’m like; this not what I do. " - you realise you're in the wrong, but you still do it.

"I wanna tell you that I’ll never love anyone else
You wanna tell me that you’re better off by yourself
But darling when I see you, you see me." - theyre deliberately misunderstanding each other, and they recognise this in each other.

But too late, they realise "I think I’m falling for you."

Such a sad song!!!

Frou Frou – Psychobabble Lyrics 18 years ago
to me this is about a girl who's in love with one guy and she's in a relationship with him, but she keeps getting the feeling its not going right, e.g.

"Now, I've had it up to here
Don't ever try that again" - showing she knows him and what he's trying to do

"You couldn't be more wrong, darling
I never gave out these signs
You misunderstand all meaning
Snap out of it
I'm not falling for this one" - the darling showing she's trying to be nice, but failing, and she's in a really big argument with him.

And at the same time, combined into the song, is her conversation with this other guy whos coming onto her a lot too much for comfort

" How did you get this number?
I can't get my head 'round you
Of course you're not coming over" - she's really scared of all the attention, its been a long time since someone has really loved her like that

So most of the song is her yelling at/talking to one of these guys, then in some bits she's suddenly talking to herself;

"If love is surrender
Then whose war is it anyway?"

Then at the end she realises she is "torn in two" and feels so utterly helpless...

"Do just what I tell you
And no one will get hurt
Don't come any closer
'Cause I dunno how long I can hold my heart in two

So, what do we do now?
What do we do now?
What do we do now?
What do we do now?" - she's telling both of them to back off because she doesnt understand herself anymore.

--------------------------

Maybe this is just me - its where I was at the time I first heard the song anyway.
