Absolutely amazing song, can't think what it's about though. Sounds really dark.

Foo Fighters – The Sign Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree that it's about love, just he's saying that he'll do whatever she wants, she just has to say when.

This song is ace, hell it would probably be a great single.

Red Hot Chili Peppers – My Lovely Man Lyrics 18 years ago
This is one of my top 5 Chili Pepper songs. Reading these lyrics almost brings me to tears, this part especially:

"In my room
I'm all alone
Waiting for you
To get home

Listen to Roberta Flack
But I know you won't come back"

One of the saddest songs ever. RIP Hillel :(

Queens of the Stone Age – Mosquito Song Lyrics 18 years ago
i get the image of some kind of weird posh mansion in the middle of some creepy woods, where weird cultists eat people alive, but they give them something to numb the pain, so that the victims can see themselves being eaten alive at some dinner table or something, but they're restrained so they can't do anything about it...

hey that might be a good idea for a movie or something!

Foo Fighters – Walking After You Lyrics 18 years ago
Stalker song! Obsessed with a girl, though he probably thinks he just wants to look out for her, he's really stalking her.

Also it sounds like someone actually trying to get someone to get back with them.

"I cannot be without you, matter of fact" - obvious
"Weren't you adored" - sort of like a rhetorical question, saying that he adored her and treated her well

Foo Fighters – Everlong Lyrics 18 years ago
About Dave's divorce, amazing song, haunting. Real good. Obviously he's sad that the relationship has ended, he's going through his memories of the good times, blah blah. He wants to savour every moment with the girl, "Breathe out, so I can breathe you in, hold you in" shows that much. But it's pretty easy to figure out what it's about anyway, I think.

Or maybe they got drunk and fucked and Dave got delusions that they'd get back together.

Foo Fighters – February Stars Lyrics 18 years ago
This is the perfect song to setup Everlong, it just makes Everlong sound even prettier and heartbreaking.

I think this song is about that his girl that he loved just dumped him and he's just really down in the dumps to the point where he just feels like he's only hanging on by a thread. He wants to be hopeful with the whole 'temporary scars' thing, saying he won't be feeling like shit forever, but he's still pretty sad. Poor guy :(

Foo Fighters – The Colour And The Shape Lyrics 18 years ago
this is one of my fave tunes, it totally shoulda been on the album. seems like he's pissed at someone and wants to kick their ass.

Foo Fighters – See You Lyrics 18 years ago
I think this is about that he got into an argument with his girlfriend and, maybe she doesn't want to hear from him, but he still feels happy when he sees her. Maybe the argument was about him eyeing up someone else, and he's just trying to convince her that she's the one for him, or something.

Foo Fighters – Hey, Johnny Park! Lyrics 18 years ago
I think it's about a relationship, if he's just quit that relationship in Monkey Wrench, then he wants to get back again in this song.

The whole "Your eyes still remind me of angels that hover above" suggests that he still has feelings for her and they probably get back together again by the time My Poor Brain starts.

Foo Fighters – Monkey Wrench Lyrics 18 years ago
Yeah me too, seems like he keeps getting used or blamed or something, and he's pissed off about it and he just decided he's not gonna let it happen anymore.

Foo Fighters – My Hero Lyrics 18 years ago
Dave has said it's about normal everyday heroes but I think it's kinda to do with Kurt on a subconscious level. Not totally about him though, I don't think Dave was thinking "Oh this song is totally about Kurt" while he was writing it. He's said before that he writes something that, at the time, he has no idea what it's about, and then he realises that it was about something afterall.

Weird, eh?

Foo Fighters – Up In Arms Lyrics 18 years ago
Sounds like he's really happy about getting back with someone he really likes.

"Always coming back, I cannot forget you girl" - sounds like he's been going back a lot of times.

Foo Fighters – Enough Space Lyrics 18 years ago
I can very vaguely relate this to his marriage. Maybe he just feels that they aren't getting enough 'alone time.' He just wants to 'put her on his ceiling' so to speak, keep her to himself.

Foo Fighters – Doll Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree that it's to do with his divorce, but I think it's mainly about the stage where he really wants to commit to her, but he doesn't realise he's doing it prematurely, hence the shitty relationship.

The "I'll meet you there" line suggests to me that he's gonna meet with her and talk about the fact he wants to commit to her, or whatever.

Foo Fighters – Wind Up Lyrics 18 years ago
"My only promise is that I'll never tell
Keep you at a distance from the things that I felt
I'll bite the bullet take the beating until
I take it all back anyway what was I supposed to say?"

I love this part. Reminds me of trouble I was having with a girl who said she liked me, then turned bitchy. That line summed up exactly how I felt at the time. I think it probably means something similar to how Dave felt too. He's pissed off at the girl pretty much, for being a bitch and it's just a real headfuck for him.

Foo Fighters – My Poor Brain Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree with what you guys say about the handshake line. It pretty much sums up the whole song. The guy and the girl used to be together, now they're not, and when he sees her he's not sure whether he should just shake her hand (try to be just a friend) or fuck her (try to get back together), and it gets to him, he feels like he's getting stuck, makes him a bit crazy, hence the title 'My Poor Brain.'

I think that the actual music of the song shows his emotions flaring up and down too, the chorus is loud, the verses are soft (mainly).

Foo Fighters – New Way Home Lyrics 18 years ago
This is basically about how Dave is over the whole divorce now, he's not scared to move on. He's also getting kinda nostalgic, thinking about his past in general too.

I love it when he sings:
"If you can manage me
I'll try to manage you
but lately that's all I ever do"

It just gives some insight as to how his marriage was at that point they broke up, but he was convinced that he loved her and he wanted her back.

"I'll never tell you the secrets I'm holding
I love this leash that holds me when
i try to run away"
