The Killers – Midnight Show Lyrics 20 years ago
but then again it doesnt mean the the other translations and this whole imagined scene is what brandon was writing about in this song, but i like this place cuz it triggers your mind to imagine, which is always good for thinking. This translation seems more realistic than him mudering a girl, unless he intended on just making a fictional story. I take this song as a real expierence in his life, UNLESS he and his band ARE in fact killers, which seems crazy, and i dont even know them.

The Killers – Midnight Show Lyrics 20 years ago
murder? I think you guys are fucking crazy, i just take it as like a love related song about a guy and this well known girl (by him) going out on a night with the intent of getting the lust going.


"If you can keep a secret
I got a blanket in the back seat of my mind
And a little place that sits beneath the sky" --a blanket and a little place that sits beneath the sky, in other words, a spot beneath the sky where they can get under the covers at.


"You got a real short skirt
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah yeah" This one obviously implies a sexual craving.


"We were just in time
Let me take a little more off your mind" ---have just arrived at the midnight show, wanna drink, you can even say in order to relax.


"Somewhere in the back said
We were just a good thing
We were such a good thing"----"were", as in no longer together.

"Oh crashing time can't hide a guilty girl"---"crashing time", when the depression starts to kick in after the use of drugs, hence the alchohol, and the guilt for what she knows is going to end up happening after the show caused by the fact that they're no longer boyfriend/girlfriend, so those kind of feelings (sexual) would be wroung to have then, atleast for some.


K, now the whole "if you can keep a secret, well babby you can keep a secret" confuses me,, why would she want to keep...HM, maybe she wants to keep the fact they slept together again a secret from brandon's and the girl's inner circle.?

not sure about that last part, but it defenitely keeps consistency with the other translations.

Maybe the chords are difficult to play too?, adding complexity to the intrumental, making it that much better.

Kittie – Immortal Lyrics 20 years ago
Im not saying there trying to show off, but maybe this is just a demonstration of their skill, they get play soft, they can play LOUD, and the this instrumental is to just point THAT out so that their fame continues to grow, hence the songs title, immortal, maybe that their band is.

Opeth – Benighted Lyrics 20 years ago
taking comfort in knowing that you dont know the kind of person you are anymore as a result of a lost of faith. Hence the repetition of "come into this night". I think "come into this night" means "come into this darkness", and in darkness we have no sight, we cant see/percieve "our true selves", who we are, Of course, only if you had a lack of enlightenment would you not know the kind of person you are. Thats what i think anyway.

Mindless Self Indulgence – 1989 Lyrics 20 years ago
Rock my white shoes polo tie
The next big thing for 5 years running---talking of themselves.

It's not your turn
It's not your turn....yet---directed to pretentious bands. Its not your turn to make it big yet.

Back off you little shit
Gnawing at my fists
"I see they breed you by the boatload"---they=record companys


My body's not even cold
My act is just getting old---he says body but maybe hes speaking of the same old cold hearted , unable to feel anything but pain" lyrics most bands sing about, including the "real" ones, i know. This is what i got from this part.

I think hes talking about those fake image bands that companys "mold" to portray whatever kind of music there supposedly making, punk, metal, whatever. "dress up bands".
