Death Cab for Cutie – What Sarah Said Lyrics 20 years ago
People have been talking about the "prayer to father time" line quite a bit but i think it means something different. I thinks its saying the same thing as "If you want to hera God laugh, tell him your plans". We humans can make all the plans we want but we can't make them come true. Like a prayer-God answers all of them but sometimes the answer is no. sorry thats kind of confusing.
i think every english teacher i had in school would love this. he used so much description, you can see it in your head (just like the teacher used to say to do in stories). and the description is raw- "that reeked of piss and 409"
I think that in addition to what everybody has said about the love part-staying even though it hurts in the end-this talks about true unconditional love. you hair all falls out and i still love you kinda stuff. not just that the ppl are still there for you but that they love you through it all. I think the question at the end is less "who loves you?" and more "are those ppl that love you unconditional?" i feel like its an inspiration to keep looking for the best kind of love thats out there.
This is a sad song but somehow, i dont want to cry during it. I dont think we're supposed to. I think we're supposed to feel inspired.
does anybody know if Sarah was the person dying or some one else?
does anybody else think he says sarah funny?

something that ive always noticed about this is the "but" at the start of "but im thinking of waht srah said" as in. every1 else is lifting their heads b/c theyve been thinking of the nurses message. Theyre thinking about death. In my head, ppl all around ben looking up but him still staring at the ground lost in his own thoughts. He's thinking about the love he has with the dying person and good things about them while everyone else is thinking about that moment and the death
ive rambled for a long time now and none of that is worded in a way that anybody else can understand so ill stop now. This song is genius. its the best written song ive ever heard

Relient K – Forward Motion Lyrics 20 years ago
You know i really dont think that the specific lyrics in this mean anything in particular like in some songs. like 'evicted' doesnt really mean condemned or anything. i think this whole song would mean just as much if i said "forward motion is hard" over and over. i dont think i would love it as much if it was like that tho

Relient K – Apathetic Way to Be Lyrics 20 years ago
Yeah Id say you got it Ondistantshores. the part about everybody thinking that everybody else is apathetic is exactly what ive always thought. i think its funny that youre the 1st person to talk about the apathy in this song considering thats what its all about.

Something Corporate – Konstantine Lyrics 20 years ago
This is the most beautiful song ever written. nothing compares...
the whole "k" thing. if his g/f's name was krystal, that name was originally and usually is spelled with a c. just like the word confusion.
w/o going through each line in this song and analyzing it, which believe me ive done, i'll just say that I think it's about a 1st love that they thought might be forever, but broke up b/c he showed her his weakness and that didnt fit into her plans and then she found out the breaking up doesnt stop how you feel about some one. Now theyre both trying to live but they find that when you've love some one and try to return to your life before the w/o them, youre basically not living at all so they keep trying to be friends. I think the end is how he sees the future, not how it necessairly ended up. Basicaly-they break up and cant get over each other.

Brand New – The No Seatbelt Song Lyrics 20 years ago
I always thought this was about still having feelings for some one after they broke up,but i have noticed all the biblical references and they make sense, but what about the "we're wrecking....for days" part? How could that be a relationship with God? And if he shot the pilot, wouldnt that be shooting God? maybe I'm bringing too much of my own relationship with God into this...

Bush – Glycerine Lyrics 20 years ago
I'm not a big bush fan but this is my absolute favorite song. The only song prettier than it is Konstantine by soco. I'm not sure what it means but from kinda putting other people stuff together- if glycerine is a clear, odorless tasteless liquid then
"it might just be clear simple and plain
that's just fine
that's just one of my names "
could mean that he is glycerine. He is clear, plain nothing.
maybe hes saying thats what he became without her

Gratitude – Drive Away Lyrics 20 years ago

I heard a rumor that this is about his daughter, but parts of it dont make sense then. Its really sad if it is

Pete Yorn – Lose You Lyrics 20 years ago
I think this is about Pete ending a budding relationship before it gets serious enough to hurt him. He knows that eventually he and this girl will have to seperate, possibly so that he can work on one of those problems that he has to work out on his own. He knows if they get closer, she'll end up falling into whatever that problem is and so he wants to end it before that happens to her and before he gets attached. he's apparently done this before and even though this girl could mean a lot to him she becomes just "another thign"
