Rihanna – Disturbia Lyrics 17 years ago
I didn't read everyone's interpretations, so I don't know if anyone thought this already.

This song to me is about the jealousy, paranoia, doubt, suspicion, depression, insomnia and schizophrenic insanity and the mental darkness that cheating does to a person in a relationship.

Fuck, have you ever been in that state? It's dark. It seriously drove me crazy to the point where I had a psychodiagnostic assessment done because I seriously htought something was wrong with me, so this song of course grabbed me. "What's wrong with me?" and "Why do I feel like this?" are some seriously reocurring questions when you are in this crazed state. "I'm going crazy now."

No more gas in the rig
Can't even get it started
Nothing heard, nothing said
Can't even speak about it
All my life on my head
Don't want to think about it
Feels like I'm going insane
Yeah

(Cheating, relationship has stalled, no discussion about it, the world as you thought it was has been turned upside down, you don't want to think about it but it's all you can think about)

It's a thief in the night
To come and grab you
It can creep up inside you
And consume you
A disease of the mind
It can control you
It's too close for comfort

(This verse captures it all. Tossing and turning in bed, stomache in knots with worry, panic and doubt about the status of your relationship. It eats you inside, deteriorates your rationality, your logic, all your senses, and you see and hear only what you want to hear. Everything is warped and twisted)

Throw on your break lights
We're in the city of wonder
Ain't gonna play nice
Watch out, you might just go under
Better think twice
Your train of thought will be altered
So if you must faulter be wise
Your mind is in disturbia
It's like the darkness is the light
Disturbia
Am I scaring you tonight
Your mind is in disturbia
Ain't used to what you like
Disturbia
Disturbia

(This, in my experience, was trying to drown everything out with drinking, Ecstasy, cocaine, ketamine and hard partying in the club and on the dancefloor. Certainly is the city of wonder, when you're trying to escape, you wanna throw on the breaks and remain in a sweet escape. You start to play mind games, and you could go under deep if you're not careful)

Faded pictures on the wall
It's like they talkin' to me

(Not seeing the same person you knew in the pictures, or in front of you)

Disconnectin' your call
Your phone don't even ring

(Trying to shut them out, but you can't)

I gotta get out
Or figure this shit out
It's too close for comfort

(This song is too close for comfort)

Release me from this curse
I'm trying to remain tame
But I'm struggling
You can't go, go, go
I think I'm going to oh, oh, oh

All I can say, is damn, this song is all about a past experience. Jealousy, lies, secrets and cheating can FUCK YOU UP.

Disturbia!

Wolfmother – Dimension Lyrics 19 years ago
What is all this talk about, "I think this song may be about drugs?" or "I think it's a stoner song." HARRO!!! The damn song is called "Dimension"! Come on people. Purple hazes? Hmmm....

The whole damn album...no, the band is described as stoner or psychedelic rock.

Their music makes me wanna burn one...I don't know if that is a good thing or not...

The Kills – Fried My Little Brains Lyrics 19 years ago
Seriously, SONG MEANINGS people! (But both VV and Miss O rawk!)

Anyway. Yeah, good call Young. Never thought of that one.

Before I even heard the song, I saw the title and immediately thought over drug use. Like, being fried from getting burnt out, or being E-ed out of your head (from Ecstacy, for you unknoweds).

What other drugs was VV into? I know coke can scramble your brains...and the jaw grinding can really take a toll on yout teeth...

Yeah, whichever.

The Raconteurs – Broken Boy Soldier Lyrics 19 years ago
I don't know about any of you guys, but it seems as if our dear Jack seems to have a bit of a fixation with not growing up (not unlike that Michael guy)... illustrated well in this song this Stripes song I love, "the Air Near My Fingers":

Don't you remember?
You told me in December
That a boy is not a man
Until he makes a stand
Will, I'm not a genius
But maybe you'll remember this
I never said I wanted to be a man

See? See? I love that song.

My take on the Racs song is that it's a guy--or a person--who is contemplating their struggle with growing up and letting go of the past,

I'm asking about it by myself...
I'm through ripping myself off...
I'm done ripping myself off...

Then there is the issue with debating whether or not to stay the same or become a man (...Jack?)

I'm child and man and child again...
The toy broken boy soldier...
The boy never gets older...

And maybe finally making a decision to get over one's self and try again,

I'm going back to school today...
But I'm dropping myself off...

Anyway, apparently I talk too much...I should go now.

M.I.A. – 10 Dollar Lyrics 19 years ago
Okay, I could never understand a part of this song--as is often the case when it comes to M.I.A.'s lyrics--but it's the "word" just before the actual lyrics begin. Just before,

"Chinna Girl is a little girl
From a town
That's all ya need to know.

Does she say "herojuana?" Like heroin and marajuana? Or am I just cracked? Is it even English? I doubt it, but she says it a few times throughout the song.

Anyone?
