Stars – Petit Mort Lyrics	17 years ago
I didn't realize that "Le Petit Mort" had been submitted before I did this, but on the Arts&Crafts Sampler Vol.3 I got with my BSS shirt, it says it's "Petit Mort" and I heard the lyrics a bit differently. Either way! This song is definitely about the big O.

Sufjan Stevens – Casimir Pulaski Day Lyrics

17 years ago

fuck. i didn't get to finish! hahaha. anyways. the girl has always been plagued with a certain illness and at this point in time where it's reaching it's peak, he's also finding her more beautiful and not just the little girl he grew up with. and he puts his hopes, prayers, and faith into God to heal her, but it ultimately is to no avail. on and on and on. like everyone else, i think this is about not understanding God's doing, should there be one, or being temperamental with him/her/it.

Sufjan Stevens – Casimir Pulaski Day Lyrics

17 years ago

i haven't taken the time to file through all the meanings people have posted, so i'm sorry if this is repetitive but this is the imagery/meaning i get from the song. two young teenagers who have essentially grown up together, thusly growing close. maybe the boy has been a little less "privleged" than the girl, but that has never been an issue that they couldn't look beyond, though maybe their parents couldn't say the same.

Death Cab for Cutie – Pictures in an Exhibition Lyrics	18 years ago
i heard the version of this on "you can play these songs with chords" first, and after hearing it on "something about airplanes" i've decided the former is a better version. the lyric "these polyurethane people with their glass hearts" really makes the song for me.

Keane – Hamburg Song Lyrics	18 years ago
i whole heartedly agree with bloc party. but i'd like to add that it seems like she is taking advantage of everything he's offering her, and giving nothing in return. i love the simplicity of this song, especially the intro with the accordian, organ? i can't tell. and the purity of his voice is amazing.

Nightmare Of You – The Studded Cinctures Lyrics	18 years ago
this sort of seems like a diss song to me. "he whips the mic in an ardent way" the song just screams taking back sunday to me.
