| Cute Is What We Aim For – Lyrical Lies Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
You’re moving but not aware Your’re drowsy without a care Except keeping your whites behind your lids And your lids are your best canvas I can only imagine what your painting I really love this part and what it means to me is that the girl he's so much in love with is so fucking unaware of it. She's living her life never knowing he cares about her so much. And to me, this girl is pre-occupied with something/someone else. She doesn't give a shit about anything else hence, 'drowsy without a care EXCEPT...' when she keeps her eyes closed (she doesn't see what's in front of her and is dreaming about something/someone else). I think the body and the mattress is a metaphor saying how she actually likes being beside him even though she is thinking about someone else and 'your makeup on my pillow...' actually means she's comfortable being her real self around him. No paintings, no fronting, no lies... |

| Azure Ray – Sleep Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I can't believe I had to wait for Devil Wears Prada to have found out about Azure Ray. This song totally blows me away! If someone ever asks me how to describe beauty, I shall tell them about this song. It really is SO beautiful that I simply am at a loss for words to describe it. | |
| Jack's Mannequin – Last Straw Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Oh when he's singing about JFK's wife, I'm thinking he's actually singing about himself and JFK is actually the girl 'running around' with others while he's hopeless and waiting... | |

I'm horrible at histories so I had absolutely no clue about the whole JFK thing but ironically it is my favourite part of the whole song and the keyboard solo that follows up. Thanks to you guys who gave me a little history lesson ha! But is this really a song about a long-distance relationship? "And I scratched these words into a black notebook I wrote your name on top, I knew you'd never look" This part implies to me that he's in love with this girl who doesn't think about him the same way. Maybe like a friend, just like how he sings about her going out with other guys. God I know the feeling so well because I have done and felt exact to those lyrics... About the JFK thing, though it may be true about the whole cheat-on-her thing and yet his wife was still waiting for him; to me it feels more like he's singing about her Hope and Faith in him that he still loves her. Beautiful, beautiful song. Did I mention the keyboard solo? Friggin' awesome. |

| The Beautiful Mistake – Wide Eyes Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| This is such a beautiful song. I love it how as the song ends, he sings "And I walked away from you..." expressing his deep regret that he actually walked away from God before. This song actually scares me sometimes because I used to know God, but I've "walked away". | |

Alright, I've listened to this song for a countless number of times. My best friend introduced this song to me and at first, I wasn't really into it but then something about it just captivated me. From what I’ve gathered, this song is about a guy who is so in love with a girl who isn’t being true to herself. Here goes: The first verse sings about how he’s far away from home, far away from her, and how much it hurts. I’m not sure about the fear part but I think it means he’s putting up a front but it’s slowly coming off. He gets more and more afraid that he won’t ever see her again, and that fear is soaking into his charade he puts on to pretend that he's ok. He knows the girl he loves wants a beautiful ending, to live happily ever after, just like in the movies but everyone knows that’s fake. Therefore, these dreams of her’s leave her feeling empty. “Cover me when I’m shivering Cause its cold like winter in upstate You've torn the warmth of my everyday world Away from the homecoming I don’t anticipate” He’s not too keen on seeing her again (at the same time, he needs to if he ever dreams of another chance) because she had left him in a cold world of pain and this may repeat itself if he sees her and tries again. “Cross your heart you're a liar girl Fold your hand and walk away While I lie awake How I drug this mind to get some sleep unsuccessfully” This is the part where I believe he refers to the girl lying to herself and not to him. She actually really loves him but refuses to accept it and this causes him sleepless nights where he keeps on thinking about her and how they should be together. “Watching you die alone would make you the girl of my dreams” I’m not too sure about this part but I believe he hopes that she won’t ever find someone else… “But instead the radio marches parades at 4am These anthems of hopeless heartache Serve as a timeline of my life until I fail” Songs of heartbreak are the soundtrack to this guy’s life until he fails. I’m thinking he doesn’t want to give up on her so he’s singing how he’ll always be broken-hearted until he gets her or until it’s impossible to get her. “In slow motion I watch you now cut the sail” She doesn’t want anything to do with him anymore and so he sees her ‘cutting the sail’, cutting him off her life. He’s now lost for he has lost his sail that helps navigate the way. “As she coward with sound behind the walls that surround this. Let go, will you feel it this time? Could there ever be that moment? The one where I owe you my life” This is my favourite part. I believe its talking about how this girl is so afraid of her true feelings for this guy that she hides behind a wall. He wants her to let go, break the walls, and maybe she might feel him this time. He’s hoping for that moment when she’s no longer afraid and hoping she’ll feel the exact same way he does, just like the time he saw her and she made him feel alive. Whew! Oh yeah, this song rocks. |
