Amazing song. Very powerful lyrics. "This is my favorite place, so I hope that I don't last here too long." "Only one way out the door, it's too risky. Someone might not see me, be careful.." |

| Sound Team – Movie Monster Lyrics | 17 years ago |

I could be totally off on this one but to me this song is about the US government and the fear of terrorism with the movie monster being terrorists. __________________________________ Something tells me There's no hurry We should all just keep on walking They had us going for a while there, But now it isn't working ............................................................... At first we were scared out of our minds and the mere mention of terrorism and the American people would agree to anything. But now it isn't working. _______________________________ They didn't want the world to know the movie monster was mechanical. ................................................................ If we realized that terrorists like Osama Bin Laden were actually mechanical caricatures created by us and that these perfectly created movie villains weren't what they are made out to be the government would not be able to take rights and increase our empire. ________________________________ Everyone already knows the monster was mechanical; Just one of those awkward times, You shrug 'cause you guess so, Something you already know. ............................................................... People have figured it out, we know that this monster is mechanical and that it's being used as a ploy, yet we just shrug it off because we feel powerless. _______________________________ When did that feather in your cap turn into a black eye, my friend? I'm gonna be there when you go down. Diamonds turn back into coals whenever they die. We'll run into less and less old friends. ............................................................. Patriotism (the feather in the cap) is getting us called (the black eye) and causing us to fall both morally and financially in the eyes of the world. I believe the last line speaks for itself, as we continue "We'll run into less and less old friends." _________________________________ The music blasting clears my head and I forget the things you said to me, Something you already know, Something you would always say to me. ..................................................................... But things don't get better because we just let the music rush over us and forget all of the lies promises our politicians have made. __________________________________ Something you already know, Something you would always say to me. ................................................................... Our forgetfulness is precisely what the politicians depend on. It's what allows them to continuously repeat the same promises fabrications. __________________________________ Again I could be completely off but it's still interesting to think of the song this way especially because theirs so much seemingly direct references to it. |

| Noah and the Whale – 2 Bodies 1 Heart Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| "felt hard" is supposed to be "fell apart". It comes from the idea in Plato's Symposium that lovers were originally one body with four arms and four legs, but were split into two by Zeus. This idea can also be seen in the song "The Origin Of Love" >http://www.songmeanings.net/lyric.php?lid=68462 | |
