A Static Lullaby – Eager Cannibals Lyrics 16 years ago
I posted these lyrics a while ago, when the album was first released. If i remember correctly, I copied the lyrics directly from the CD booklet.

Anthony Green – Jesus and the Sharp Electric Star Lyrics 17 years ago
Ok, aloha.loves, let's rethink your comment.

Anthony Green has been off drugs since his early Saosin days, possibly before. So, to say he's 'always' high when he writes his songs is a common mistake. Getting off drugs was a big accomplishment for him, so let's give him some credit for that.

Thanks.

Circa Survive – In Fear and Faith Lyrics 17 years ago
Actually, I'm sure if killzone is mocking you, could be sincere. Not that it matters. I see a connection to the book 'House of Leaves' here. I'll only scratch the surface, because I have a feeling I'm wayyyyyyy wayyyyyy wayyyyyyy off, but here goes:

"can we last through the winter. the water's starting to freeze. the only one who remembers. taking the wrong step falling in front of me."

- Reminds me of when Will Navidson enters the hallway despite Karen's wishes. The hallway may very well be the 'winter'.

"congratulations; go home now."

- After Will returns from the depths of the house, Karen tells him she's leaving and taking the kids. Sounds like he sarcastically throws that out at her.

"i never wanted a partner. and i never loved you. now you are free to leave"

- Possibly about how Will and Karen decided it would be best not to be married. Obviously he loved her very much, and she felt the same, but after many of the things that happened (i.e. her adulterations; him entering the unknown of the house, ignoring her wishes of him not to.)

- The rest of the lyrics fit as well, but I could be completely off.

Go easy on me, please.

Circa Survive – The Glorious Nosebleed Lyrics 17 years ago
I agree. Peace.love.whatever, that was un-called-for. If you don't think it's good music, don't come over here. Sorry it's not old-school punk, but it is talent nonetheless. Respect it regardless if you don't like it.

A Static Lullaby – Mechanical Heart Lyrics 17 years ago
This song has a more 'gory' feeling to it than most ASL songs. I'm pretty sure it's not directly speaking of the murders or suicides of this couple, but just refering to it in passing to get across a more hidden meaning. Give me some time, I'll get it. Just need to do a little more research.

By the way, amazing guitar solo.

"They never hit their brakes..."
"There was no time to see..."
"He just ran out in the street..."
"Does anybody know his name?"
"I think I recognize him..."
"He sure as hell paid for that mistake..."

I like this part, but I haven't found it relevent to the song really. Not yet, anyway...

Brand New – Not the Sun Lyrics 17 years ago
Galaxian is right, a lot of band write that way. A lot of songs start out as random lines or poems, and that's sometimes the context they get printed in. It's not uncommon at all.

Jay-Z – Song Cry Lyrics 17 years ago
"aight y u gonna come on like u hard puttin down rap"

It's this kind of thing that makes a lot of people lose respect for rap.

Just to make some sense of what he's trying to say:
"Alright, why do you have to into a rap forum and put down the music that many people love and respect? If it isn't your type of music, don't listen to it or comment on it."

I listen to mostly rock, I play the guitar and bass, but i still have respect for talent. Jay-Z, good music. Don't put it down, that gives rock-listeners a bad name.

A Static Lullaby – The Annexation Of Puerto Rico Lyrics 17 years ago

A Static Lullaby – Contagious Lyrics 17 years ago
Awesome song, one of the better ones on the self-titled, by far.

Could be about a drug-related incident between two people, possibly a couple. ("Convulsing", "The price of wanting more"). Just an opinion, probably way off.

Finch – Dreams Of Psilocybin Lyrics 17 years ago
You can be 'enlightened' to an extent while tripping, but 'finding real knowledge' is a different story. Many artists and musicians have created their best work while on drugs, but that doesn't mean that what they see or feel is 'real'.

Thrice – Atlantic Lyrics 18 years ago
I'm pretty sure Wackdee nailed it everyone. I don't see heaven, God, Jesus, whatever in these lyrics. You have to remember, Thrice in NOT a Christian band, despite the fact that some of their songs involve religion. Therefore not EVERY FUCKING SONG THEY WRITE INVOLVES RELIGION AND I'M STARTING TO GET A LITTLE ANGRY THAT 90% OF THE PEOPLE POSTING HERE THINK THAT THEY'RE POSTING ON THE FUCKING GOSPEL PAGE. Thank you. Oh, and for information, I happen to be religious and i DO go to church, so I'm not just hating on religion.

Alexisonfire – No Transitory Lyrics 18 years ago
transitory -

fleeting, existing only a short time, short-lived.

just look into the title a little bit, it's not completely irrelevent to the meaning of the song. i have a strong feeling this song isn't about self-mutilation.

Alexisonfire – Control Lyrics 18 years ago
This burden's not a heavy one
But I assure you, it's present
-opening the song with this confuses me. usually when you write a song, it's backed with a lot of emotion, but this line, to me, means that there is a problem, just not a big one. like a thorn in your side, always there, but never a big problem.

You say that you're in control
You say that you are
-people with problems (drugs or eating disorders, like a few other people mentioned) almost always say they're in control of it.
I can't think of a time
When you looked less alive
-obviously this problem is taking a toll on this person's health
You said, "Wait until light, my dear"
Just wait until light
-like someone else stated, they're just pushing off the solution to the problem, whatever that problem may be.
One more day will go by
-pushed off the solution again
Maybe today you should try
-self-explanatory
Look past the mirror and find
Look past the mirror
-people who have eating disorders have one major enemy, mirrors.
That there's something inside
Something more to your life
-than being so vain as to think you need to lose weight/use drugs
My words won't heal you now
My words won't heal
It is you who decides
It is you who decides
-this person has to help themselves, noone else can do it for them

Believe that you are just fine
Believe that you are
-sarcasm, maybe?
You'll feel so alive
You'll feel so alive
-more sarcasm?
Be what you are now (be what you are)
Be what you are
-stop trying to be something you're not (a drug abuser, not skinny enough?)
Do not keep it inside
-let your feelings out
That hate will not subside
-the hate you have for yourself won't leave until you let it
Be what you are now (be what you are)
Be what you are
Do not keep it inside
That hate will not subside

Or im just full of shit.

Alexisonfire – Side Walk When She Walks Lyrics 18 years ago
Dressed to kill, you look so right
-'dressed to kill' usually refers to a girl dressing in a provacative manner
I am drunk with lust tonight
-it's obvious he thinks she looks good
Your wounds are opening wide
-she might possibly be coming out of a serious relationship....
And they might be just my size
-...and he's trying to jump in and fill that void (wound), if only just for a night

Now I'm afraid of open water
-here it seems like he's also coming out of a relationship and is afraid to be alone for the first time
But I often bathe in sin
-but he seems to be sleeping around, playing the field
Let's be honest, you know you shouldn't bother
-he knows that it's a bad idea for her to be with him after all this has happened to both of them
'Cuz with me, it's impossible to win
-because he is going to use her, possible for more 'bathing in sin'

There was always
Warmth between us
-umm... maybe they have known each other previously
There was always
Warmth between us

Just my take on it. I could be completely off seeing as i didn't write the song and noone can be sure what he's thinking as he's writing.

-trippin off DXM and the end of the song ("..and this feels like -heaven") almost go hand-in-hand. it trips me out everytime.

-that speaking-verse is getting old and outdone though, i feel. -feels as if i'm listening to Good Charlotte-Predictable -when that joel dude starts bitching in his song.

are you kidding me? you fucking idiot. NEVER, EVER compare A Static Lullaby to good charolette. thats like comparing hundred dollar bills to fucking pennies, you peice of shit. and since when did A Static Lullaby ever remind someone of the talentless DMX? you have got to be joking. have you ever actually listened to this song? granted, it's not the same as "...And Don't Forget To Breathe", but it's sure as shit not comparable to sold-out, consumer-tending good charolette, or that damn hood-rat DMX. and if anyone has a problem with me shitting all over DMX or good charolette, please feel free to IM me, send me an email or something and i'll educate you. thank you, kill yourself.

A Static Lullaby – Cash Cowbell Lyrics 18 years ago
it's about feeling like a piece of merchandise as opposed to human. like they can be bought or traded like something in a store. i also think it is 'sleep soundly proposition'. a proposition to help them sleep more soundly as they no longer have to worry about financial problems, for example.

-you should have left me sleeping,
-you should have let me sleep...

i disagree. i think what he means by 'sleeping' is more of keeping him 'out of the know'. she possibly cheated on him with a good friend of his (hence the line "waiting for your legs to close on my best friends"), and if she hadn't let him find out, none of this would have ever happened.

also, in my opinion, this song more refers to her cheating on him than just the break up. it focused more on his revenge, the guilt he feels after his revenge, and then his complete turn-around about the guilt, almost happy. its not focused mainly on one central point, but the situation as a whole.

A Static Lullaby – A Song For A Broken Heart Lyrics 18 years ago
"Take this for what its worth,
"this song my smile,"
-possibly explaining to her that this is exactly how he feels. 'take this for what its worth' telling to to take this literally.

"i write to you from hell my song"
"leaving my foot against the gas"
"and the wall that must have said your name"
(I'll write to you from hell tonight)
-stating that he's writing this song feeling broken and lost, almost as if he's actually writing from hell

"weaken me, for nothing you can say could"
"stop this now, would a noose replace his lips?"
"can a song replace a broken heart? can a song"
"replace a broken love?"
-apparently (maybe not so apparently) SHE has moved on and found somebody else, (possibly a friend of his?) leaving him with a broken heart
“on the beach i remind myself”
“that holding hands is so powerless”
“tonight i dont even have the stars to hold onto”
-like i stated in my first post, im not 100% sure what hes reffering to here, but possibly that by holding her hand he gave total control of his heart to her, and she abused that power by hurting him. looking at the stars would help him get over this feeling, but tonight the stars aren't there

“Paint this red”
-he's possibly 'painting the town red', looking for someone to take this girl's place, hoping that someone new might help him forget her. maybe not 'forget' her, but ease his mind of the situation.

“her picture will remain unbroken she crys tonight”
”i fall in love”
-he has now moved on, and falls in love with someone else

“wipe each tear away with sand paper tonight im not alone”
”i just wanna get your fucking voice out of my head”
-he's not alone tonight, and she's crying. possibly she 'broke his heart' to make him jealous. she might even still want to be with him, but either she fucked up and decided that she didnt need him anymore and realized later that she did, in fact, need him, OR maybe she's just jealous that he's not dwelling on her any longer.

“will i fall within the break? ill watch you fall.”
-he's asking if he'll be the one to take this break badly, or if it'll be her. and the second part 'ill watch you fall' proves that it's, in fact, HER that takes it worse, as SHE'S the one to fall.

just my take on it, i could be off, but thats how i see it.

submissions
A Static Lullaby – A Song For A Broken Heart Lyrics 18 years ago
i wonder what he's referring to with the line about the beach and holding hands. maybe something about how holding hands makes you feel powerless, like you and the girl are on the same wavelength, or maybe that he's giving himself to her completely by holding her hand. something like letting her guide him totally, thus making him powerless? the question mark is there because i could be way off with that.

Haste the Day – All I Have Lyrics 18 years ago
i absolutely agree with a7x. Haste the Day is obviously a religious band, just read the lyrics. its probably even more evident in this song than most of the others. They basically say 'Jesus loves us no matter what we do, no matter how badly we sin' without ever mentioning His name.
