Blink-182 – I Miss You Lyrics 19 years ago
this song describes the agony a person feels when they are away from the one they love. no words are deep enough to convey their pain, and they wanna die... because without the other person life has no meaning.
he's haunted by thoughts of her, and in his mind he replays the words she said to him once; thats why he cant let her go... cos she left him in doubt somehow (the angel from my nightmare)... he's torn by confusion

Jimmy Eat World – Polaris Lyrics 19 years ago
this song strikes me as the situation of two people that got themselves into something they should have never touched. it could be anything, perhaps drugs (''do you really want the sugar pill''), or prostitution maybe (''as i'm sure your kiss remains employed), but it never says for sure. what is clear is that they loved eachother, and that over time they were torn apart by the situation. he feels alone, abandoned, and deprived of love while she gets deeper into whatever they were doing... thus he says:

''are you happy where youre standing still,
do you really want the sugar pill?''

with 'sugar pill' representing the temptation, the risk, the thrill... whatever.
in the end he loses her, and he regrets what happened... its ''killing everything in'' him. perhaps her/their addiction took her life, and thats why he says:

''i feel that when i'm old
i'll look at you and know
the world was beautiful''

also... ''you say that love goes anywhere...''
could be representative of whats beyond death, which is where he lost her, and therefore he says that in his ''darkest time, its just enough to know its there''... as a comfort that somewhere beyond the thread still exists, and that shes not forever gone
