Billy Idol – Into the Night Lyrics 8 years ago
There is a verse after "And all the undead souls who walk the night", and it sounds like "they can suck my dick".

Eagles – Long Road Out of Eden Lyrics 9 years ago
I think that Eden is "the garden" full of "flowers" (socialites). I think there's a link between Eden and Hotel California -- a place you cannot leave, even if you try. However, leaving Eden seems possible, but requires a lifetime of experience. Unfortunately, leaving means you're alone: the instruments quitting one by one until t's just a marching snare, which too gives up until it's nothing but a desert wind.

Motörhead – Nightmare/The Dreamtime Lyrics 14 years ago
Here are the backwards phrases:

the opening part isn't actually backwards ;-)

"In a [siggals?] throughout. You poor, stupid, running dogs. Why is it...[that?]..."

"Now tell me about your miserable little lives [lies?]. I do not subscribe to your superstitious, narrow-minded rights [lights?] of paranoia. I, and the people like me, will always prevail. You will never stifle free speech in any country in the world because we [He?] will die for us."

Megadeth – Psychotron Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm pretty sure this is along the same lines as "Psychosocial" by Slipknot.

Gordon Lightfoot – Race Among the Ruins Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't think this song is about a mental illness.

To me, it's just about growing up ("when you wake up") and looking at those around you who haven't yet figured their lives out. Finding love can be hard, especially with mistakes like one night stands ("who by the magic of the moment were mysteriously undone"). Some figure it out sooner than others, and all you can do once you've figured it out is to enjoy it while you're still alive.

I'm not quite sure about the jester and the clown part. Maybe how the clown becomes the jester for other clowns... dunno about that one.

Black Label Society – Blacked Out World Lyrics 16 years ago
This song I have trouble understanding.

I mean, I understand the distorted mirrors part, and how they can lead the depressed to suicide.

But what I do not understand is WHY he says "commit your final suicide". I can't agree with that. I mean, what if some depressed idiotic kid listens to it? Very irresponsible.

And yes, this is very different from songs like "Mass Murder Machine".

Aerosmith – Fallen Angels Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is probably as simple as Steven Tyler seducing some emotionally scarred women into having sex with him.

Fallen angels go to hell.

Damageplan – Moment Of Truth Lyrics 17 years ago
One of Dimebag's finest. For many people, it's too slow. I find it really really powerful and uplifting. It's basically about personal triumph.

Metallica – Devil's Dance Lyrics 18 years ago
I have a different view on this song...

You might call me insane, but who cares..

James says "seeds I plant will grow" and "one day you will see and dare to come down to me" to "dance".

Basically means that all the evil (snake) lyrics he's written are seeds planted in our minds that when bloomed, we will be forced to make a decision; agree, or disagree. If we disagree, who has the balls to face him?

Good riff.

Pantera – 13 Steps To Nowhere Lyrics 18 years ago
let it be known that 11, 12 and 13 are really just bullshit... 10 is the real winner as it's the rictar scale. Giving 110% is just an expression.

Pantera – 13 Steps To Nowhere Lyrics 18 years ago
10 == dime
7 == luck
7/11 == luck beats 10 when drunk (10+1)
12 == always higher than 11
13 == friday the 13th.. aka "weird"... people fear 13.

being weird, or something that should not be, leads to nowhere.

Symphony X – Smoke and Mirrors Lyrics 18 years ago
To me it's about the "machine". We all believe that life is great and everyone is a good perosn, but it's all a lie. Everyone cons each other and steal other's work in order to reach their material desires. Then they turn around and think that no one will do it to them and they're the only ones who think that way. They don't realize that everyone is a magician (using smoke and mirrors to make people disappear, etc).

Children of Bodom – We're Not Gonan Fall Lyrics 18 years ago
The lines:

They have the authority to kill a minority

Black Label Society – Heart of Gold (Neil Young cover) Lyrics 18 years ago
Actually, Zakk changes some of the lyrics in this cover.

The third line is "reflections" and not "expressions".

Towards the end, it sounds as though he says "promise road" instead of "heart of gold" in the chorus.

Guns N' Roses – Knockin' on Heaven's Door Lyrics 19 years ago
To me, it's about the "game". GIving up on "shooting" people with nerves of steel. He's sick of fighting and lieing his ass off just to get a piece of ass or to have a list of untrue friends to call. It feels like he's just asking for death.

Old people like the shade and they avoid the light. Heh, I don't know if it has a serious meaning. I think it's just a song to go along with the movie.

Symphony X – A Fool's Paradise Lyrics 19 years ago
It's basically about how Earth is a paradise for the blind. Constantly destroying ourselves and fighting to survive our hell. And the only way out is to listen to the voice that we hear- our conscience. Unfortunately, we're taught to fear it as insanity.

Creed – Are You Ready? Lyrics 19 years ago
A lot of people told me that they don't like this song because "it's too slow". Well, anyway...

To me, this song is about moving on with your life. Mr Seeker is a man looking for love. The lead singer of Creed is married and has children, hence "human clay". Humans were created from clay according to Buddhist beliefs.

As for the Mr Hero bit, I think it means that everyone analyzes (under the microscope) heroes since everyone wants to be one. After everyone screws them over, the only thing left is their family.

Great song. And no, it's not too slow. Slow songs are harder to write, anyway.

Black Label Society – What's In You Lyrics 19 years ago
I think it's about how people might think Zakk is crazy- like Manson was after hearing the Beatles' song "Helter Skelter"- because he feels the apocalypse is near.

Black Label Society – Too Tough To Die Lyrics 19 years ago
True strength comes from believing that you can never be God, and not fearing death because you know where you'll end up- if you lived right, that is.

Black Label Society – Been a Long Time Lyrics 19 years ago
As I'm writing this comment, Mafia is their most recent album, and it is the most up-beat in their discography. So, I think this song means it's been a long time since he's felt proud and truly happy.

Black Label Society – The Blessed Hellride Lyrics 19 years ago
I dunno if "high" refers to being high off drugs or not. Maybe it just means sitting on a high horse of arrogance.

You can never be more of a lowlife when you think you're above everyone.

Steve Vai – For the Love of God Lyrics 19 years ago
If you watch the video, you'd see that the song's about all the horrible things the human race has wrongly done to deserve God's love.

However, in the video, the end line is changed to "We may be human, but we are still animals."

Really, the meaning is the same. Not matter how hard we try to better ourselves with actions and beliefs, we are still animals. And no matter how hard we try to believe or disbelieve in a higher power, we always walk the line and run in circles.

I just realized something else. He's putting down the retards of the society, and just when they might say "what the fuck do you know??", he whips out a solo and says "that's right, I'm a genious". Awesome :)

Megadeth – Symphony of Destruction Lyrics 20 years ago
I agree it's about the Antichrist. I don't really care if Mustaine said it means something else, because sometimes they say that to hide the true meaning. That way, those who deserve to know the true meaning, discover it themselves. Believe what you want, though.

Metallica – Invisible Kid Lyrics 20 years ago
I can relate to the kid in this story a lot. I'm guessing it's about Kirk because guitarists (like myself) are often quiet and somewhat anti-social at times. But we have confidence and can light up a room when we want to... with or without our instruments.

The kid's invisible because no one notices him. He was probably outcasted and has since learned to love the silence, much like an old man would.

"Got stuck where he did" - stunted his personality growth at the age he became invisible, but don't confuse that with maturity

"Inward he's grown" - he knows himself

"Suspicious of your touch" - paranoid because he trusts no one, probably cuz he sees through their lies (not a game player)... I doubt it has to do with child abuse

submissions
Megadeth – Victory Lyrics 20 years ago
It's not nonsense. He's talking about the history of Megadeth and his "victory" that came with it.

He's talking to US, not Metallica.

He's telling us that while he is the image of success in the eyes who don't know what life is about. He is rich and famous, but he isn't a victory. He's saying that he's really lost because he's doing heroin.

Sarcasm, people! Learn it.

Megadeth – 99 Ways To Die Lyrics 20 years ago
It's a joke. 99 bottles of beer on the wall... 99 ways to die.

"If I see the morning hours,
I'll have one more yesterday.
Take life from tomorrow,
Cause I've burned out my today.
If I get up to the top I know,
I'll just go back downhill."

Hungover morning, and another one tomorrow. Alcoholism.

Megadeth – A Secret Place Lyrics 20 years ago
He may also be talking about schizophrenia when he says "I hear them shout". He went inside his head to his secret place and he probably started hearing voices, maybe eventually becoming visual hallucinations. Now they won't go away.

The personalities created with schizophrenia are really just pieces of yourself. Dave must've found his lost soul by realizing that he'd broken himself.

That's what I got from the song, anyway.

Pantera – By Demons Be Driven Lyrics 20 years ago
Heh, Phil is religious. Notice how the next track on this album has the line "Mad at God"? Also, Read the lyrics to "Floods".

The lyrics:

"With decline in mind
End not far"

- means if you don't believe in God, hell awaits..

"We're left hanging alone here
He pulls us from nails
Shatters our bones
Leaving us crippled and strewn
Boiling my corpse in the blood of his children"

- what hell is like

"Praying for his god to prevail
Burying us with loved ones
To sleep with shelled children of the sixth dimension"

- believing in God will save you and send you to the dimension of Truth (6th dimension).. in other words, you'll know the truth.. "the truth will set you free" sound familiar?

Pantera has many mentions of God in their songs. Don't just look at the song titles. Most metal is, in fact, Christian. Open your eyes. If you don't like it, listen to rap.

Pantera – Psycho Holiday Lyrics 20 years ago
This song's about psychopaths, of the insensitive pathological liar kind. The guys who are quick to make fun of someone in a serious manner, then rant on about a trip he took to another country and had "one woman here another there". They tell everyone this story and can't tell the difference between strangers and their best friends because they betray everyone.
