of Montreal – So Begins Our Alabee Lyrics	19 years ago
auria being in there definitely bothers the crap out of me, since it is not a word (as far as i've discovered in my many attempts to put my mind at ease) and i'm almost certain he didn't mean aria. otherwise, the song is amazing.

Panic! at the Disco – The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage Lyrics	19 years ago
i think that when he says "i'm the narrator and this is just a prologue" he is just telling everyone up front that these songs are influenced by the books. i haven't read survivor so i don't get any of those references, but when he says "so we'll pick back up on that on another page" it's referring to choke

Sleater-Kinney – Jumpers Lyrics	19 years ago
"i'm not a bird, i'm not a plane" - i don't think this line is a statement about not being able to fly, i think it is just the things a jumper may be mistaken for from afar. the classic "it's a bird? it's a plane? oh, it's a girl committing suicide"

Sleater-Kinney – Call The Doctor Lyrics

19 years ago

i think it's not just about not conforming.. it's about not conforming to gerneral expectations in love and conventional realationships.. in other words, it's about how you're treated when you're gay. "this is love and you can't make it in a formula" also lines like "your life is good for one thing/you're messing with what's sacred" sounds like it is about how women are told all they're good for is marriage and making homes and how gay marriage messes with the "sacred" aspects of marriage

Xiu Xiu – Bunny Gamer (B) Lyrics	19 years ago
i guess i'm the only one that sees it this way, but i interpret "bunny gamer" to mean bunny as in bunny and gamer as in hunter. in that case, to me, the symbol would represent someone who pursues any sort of relationship no matter how small or unimportant it is to them, like a hunter who bothers to kill squirrels and bunnys. eh?

Rilo Kiley – Science vs. Romance Lyrics

20 years ago

or is zeroes and ones about binary code? that's what i assumed.. i don't think the song is about one particular thing. it's the brain/heart theme, general themes of wearing out as you go on, giving up romantic thoughts for the facts of reality. i also don't think god is the only thing she's referring to when she says she believed in a lot more, i think she just means there are a lot of dreams we give up on, includings things as complex as gods and ghosts or as simple as.. happiness.
