Sublime – Angelo Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is so amazing, it reminds me of me and my boyfriend (who is now in prison) b/c we ran away from the law to mexico! but i thought it said "I'm just another brother under the glove" I don't know how you could really verify this but whatever it's still a perfect song.

Built to Spill – Distopian Dream Girl Lyrics 19 years ago
UU this is amazing - "I mean, from my point of view I'm not really even sure if other people exist, so to me, my death would be the end of everything." Amazing.

but to my interpretation

"Can you make it real, make it more than will, more than just feel"
i think he is looking for someone to bring meaning to his life, someone who can make him really live.
The dictionary definition of dystopian spelled with a "y" obviously, is dire or grim... Maybe he means that his dream girl would ultimately be the one who would destroy him? Like if everything about his life was revealed to him through this lover, then he would find out the worst possible things about himself?
I mean I usually find that the things I desire are the worst for me...
or maybe i'm just bored as hell at work and wasting time by reading too deeply into things...

... I like ellipses.

Modest Mouse – One Chance Lyrics 19 years ago
"Didn't mean to laugh,
Didn't know I had.
Didn't know the better part of what you said cuz in your head you are not home.
Didn't get the joke.
Didn't mean to poke another,
Just to save myself from some something something or another one.
Well walk home."

I think this particular part of the song is Isaac regretting all the minor offenses and petty arguments he had with his friends prior to their deaths, like he's frustrated that maybe the last time he saw someone they fought about something meaningless.

Marcy Playground – Opium Lyrics 19 years ago
When I hear Opium I play a scene in my head of this guy blissfully fucked up on opium, mind completely at ease, everything happy and perfect in that gloriously superficial and temporary way only drugs can provide... Then when the "Mom" part comes, it seems to me like in the middle of everything he thinks back to his mother and his childhood, regrets what he's become and feels completely hopeless. When it gets to that part of the song it really takes every bit of my strength to not burst into tears.. maybe I just created that mental slideshow to accompany my thoughts on my own life in relation to that song... but isn't that what interpreting music is all about?
