Yellowcard – Keeper Lyrics 13 years ago
Exactly the way I feel about this song too. Most of my relationships turn out like this too, so I've lived the song as well, many times.

Love the song either way, though!!

3 Doors Down – Who Are You Lyrics 15 years ago
This song perfectly describes the situation/relationship I'm in right now. And it really saddens me to say that because I never thought I would feel like this. Or that he'd be the type to say this about. =/ But I guess you can't deny the truth.

Awesome song though, I love 3DD so much.

10 Years – So long, good-bye Lyrics 16 years ago
I listened to this song more closely recently and realized how this song fits perfectly for the movie, The Butterfly Effect. How he keeps trying to go back and change things so that they might end up together, but every time it goes horribly wrong. And at the very end of the movie they see each other again and are passing each other by like strangers. It just hit me right when I heard that line. :)

I love the overall meaning behind the song.. it's sad but sweet at the same time.

Daughtry – Learn My Lesson Lyrics 16 years ago
This is one of my favorite songs on the new album! Probably because I can relate to every word in it. It's about not really learning from your own mistakes. He's saying that he should have known better but he still makes the same decisions, knowing that it is going to cause that same pain that he knows all too well from previous experiences. And he ultimately hasn't learned a thing even throughout everything that he has been through.

"Tonight the sunset means so much
The one thing that you know, you never touch
Like the feeling, the real thing
I reach out for the sweet dream..."

I think in those lines, he realizes that he can have so much more than what he's putting himself through. And he truly wants to believe that, but something keeps drawing him back to "running right back for more [pain]."

The Fray – Never Say Never Lyrics 16 years ago
Well I believe I have to "jump on the bandwagon" as well here. Although with me, it's situation that has already passed and now I'm with that guy who's always been there for me, if even in the distance while I was figuring out what I truly felt. Yet it went on for about 5 years of us just doing what is mentioned in the first 2 lines of this song.. but I think that time of "pulling-apart-and-coming-together-again-and-again" made it that much sweeter and more romantic when we actually did get together, never to pull apart again. :)

So yes, as someone who has had things work out in this way, just do as the song says and never let this person go and definitely never say never... you never know what will happen in the end! ;)

Céline Dion – Next Plane Out Lyrics 16 years ago
I love this song. It has a new meaning to me now because I've recently gotten into a long distance relationship (of about 1500 miles) and I feel like this ALL the time. I wish I could just take the next plane out to see him. It's difficult, and some days are definitely harder than others, but it's worth it in the end. :)

Seether – Walk Away From The Sun Lyrics 16 years ago
I agree with you, Dan772, about the whole not-liking-that-people-think-it's-about-drugs thing.

My favorite lyric outta the song is "This smile is so hard to wear..." maybe because I can relate to it so well. There are many times where I've had to fake a smile when it seems like my world is falling apart.. and it's hard to wear, but I'd rather not burden the people I know with my problems.

Sister Hazel – The World Inside My Head Lyrics 16 years ago
I always thought it was "I feel better when I paint my days with purple SEAS and left-out greys" as opposed to the normal blue seas.. since the next line talks about "strange is just a different point of view." It's like he's saying dare to be different.. don't worry about what other people think if you do something outta-the-norm. :) At least that's what I get out of this song. I love it, and the message that it sends.

Shinedown – Carried Away Lyrics 17 years ago
This song affects me in a personal way because there is a traumatic experience in my past that I haven't yet fully recovered from. I've moved on from it, but the memories still linger in the back of my mind at times.

Anyway.. I think the song is about the process of getting over an experience that overpowers the person in a way that they get "carried away" with their emotions revolving around that period. Brent is telling that person to not let it overcome him/her. He's trying to get through to the person by letting them know that he's there and willing to help in any way he can, even though she is shutting him out ("in my arms you pushed aside"). And by saying "you can't blame yourself for the world's mistakes" he's saying that she shouldn't blame herself for the often-cruel nature of people. (IE: whoever hurt her in the first place) "There's times and things you can never change, don't get so carried away": Simply put, you shouldn't dwell on things that you have no possible chance of changing.. all you can do is let it go.

That's my take on it. This song always comforts me when I feel overpowered by the emotions and memories from that experience. I just love the lyrics.. it's so sweet and reassuring.. there's a guy like this who I've pushed away for quite some time and this song reminds me so much of him and what he says to me all the time.

Shinedown – Breaking Inside Lyrics 17 years ago
^^ I have to totally agree with the above statement. Shinedown is completely amazing :D This song is my favorite off of the new album because I can relate to it in an extremely personal way. (err, everything except the cigarette reference, since I don't smoke =P)

but yes... BUY THE ALBUM!!

Skillet – Falling Inside the Black Lyrics 17 years ago
^^ yes the correct name is "Falling Inside the Black"
Someone needs to report that.

I love this song because I can relate to it so well, especially right now. The first 2 lines are what really drew me in. and of course, the music is just simply awesome.

Seether – Rise Above This Lyrics 18 years ago
Great lyrics... describes exactly how I'm feeling now. I'm finding that alot of the songs on this new album do that.

Oh and one correction with the lyrics, it's not "rise about this now" it is supposed to be "rise about this DOUBT" =)

Three Days Grace – Let It Die Lyrics 18 years ago
I think the meaning of the song is pretty much very clear.

This song perfectly describes almost every relationship that I've been in.. except for the part about not caring about the person... I do care, I just lose the "spark" that kept the fire going in the beginning...it's a curse I inherited from my dad, I've come to realize... =/

but yeah, amazing song.. I love it.

Nickelback – Do This Anymore Lyrics 18 years ago
someone really needs to fix the lyrics of this song. Another mistake that wasn't mentioned... it's "I don't find faith in your *forced* feelings." not "false" feelings.

I love this song.. it reminds me of a past relationship that always seems to come back to haunt me because of my mistake of staying with him because of those "forced feelings." But one day I came to the epiphany of realizing what it says in this song, after wasting 2 and a half years of my life on that jerk.

But I still love the song. ^.^

Savage Garden – Two Beds And A Coffee Machine Lyrics 19 years ago
this song describes what my life would have been like. which is why it always makes me cry, because it brings back a part of my life that I keep trying to forget about, but yet it's always there in the back of my mind. but they are also tears of joy because I got myself out of the situation.

"And the years go by so fast
Wonder how I ever made it through..."

That line right there hits me hard every time I hear it...because there are times when I really don't know how I could have made it through..but the important issue is that I did.

"But there's hope in the darkness
You know you're going to make it..."

Shinedown – I Dare You Lyrics 19 years ago
actually, I think this song is more about inspiration. It's like something is daring you to fail, but that just gives you all the more motivation to succeed...

I can especially relate to this song, because there are times when I have kept the wrong voice alive... and times when I've been wrongfully called a liar and such.. this song always comes to mind during that, because I just hear the "I dare you to...call me a liar" and it just makes me that much more determined to prove otherwise.

Cheap Trick – The Flame Lyrics 19 years ago
I don't see this song as a breakup song at all...I see it as the opposite...as a statement between two people who truly love each other...they're saying that they will always be there for each other...their love will never end.. and through all the ups and downs of life, they'll still be there, going through it together.

The flame could represent the passion of their relationship and their undying love for one another.

Dark New Day – Free Lyrics 19 years ago
I love the lyrics to this song... so meaningful. It totally reminds me of a past relationship that I was stuck in but refused to get out of, because I thought the guy cared for me the same way I cared for him. (which he didn't) I wish I would have heard this song back then because it would have saved me from alot of pain.

Dark New Day – Follow the Sun Down Lyrics 19 years ago
have you ever had a day that was so great that you never wanted to end? that's exactly that this song is talking about... not wanting to go on to tomorrow, just stay in that moment when you're happy and everything's alright..

I love this song... it's got a great feel to it...

I totally agree with you mattezyk :)

Cat Stevens – The Wind Lyrics 20 years ago
I agree wholeheartedly with MusicOfSilence... that line is my absolute favorite of this song... I first heard this song in the movie Almost Famous, and instantly had to find it after hearing it...

the only downside I'd say is that it's so short. But I guess that just goes along with the simple theme of the song :)

3 Doors Down – Live For Today Lyrics 20 years ago
I love this song... the best song about living in the moment, and seeing that everything will work out in the end, no matter what...and how living in the past will only result in you being stuck there for the rest of your life... and possibly missing out on the best part of life, the here and now. :D

3 doors down is just such an amazing band... I loooove their lyrics and music so much.

3 Doors Down – My World Lyrics 20 years ago
yeah along the lines of the previous comment, this song comes off to me as describing how you can't let others walk all over you and how you have to stand up for yourself at times... otherwise the problems of others' is going to drag you down. You have to live your own life.

"There's always someone to blame for the things you do to yourself.
You think that everything that's going wrong is because of someone else.
And you're trapped inside this world you made yourself.
That's not the world I live in, this is not the life for me.
'Cuz my world's bigger than your problems and it's bigger than me."

Those lyrics just speak for itself.. that's my favorite part of the song... basically just saying that you have to deal with the consequences of your own actions, and you should learn to accept that instead of constantly complaining about it or blaming someone else.

Alot of my life can be related to this song.. I have a hard time standing up for myself when it's necessary.. so this song means alot to me. :)

Faktion – Letting You Go Lyrics 20 years ago
yeah um it being about Bob Saget makes no sense at all whatever... but ok.

I think it's just mainly about a couple that has become distanced by something and they feel as if they don't know each other the way they used to. and he doesn't wanna just give up and end things, but he knows deep down inside that he has to.

I love this song, and I can totally relate to it, just about every single relationship I have had, the passion has burned out, and this song completely describes how that feels.
