M83 – Graveyard Girl Lyrics 17 years ago
i love how the 80s-esque instrumentation of this song adds to the theme of the archetypal goth girl of the 80s, and the entire genre of pop culture of the 80s in general.

Josiah Leming – One Last Song Lyrics 18 years ago
i think that this song had two major ideas. one having to do with the obviously stated question of salvation, and the other metaphorically addressing "making it" into the music industry and leaving behind what is familiar to you, to pursue a dream/ the unknown. i feel like this makes sense considering the history of the artist.

Guster – Homecoming King Lyrics 18 years ago
i love this song, it is about the person that peaked in high school, and when they leave their comfort zone they are unprepaired for the real life

Elliott Smith – Bled White Lyrics 18 years ago
anatomically, people bleed blood, which is red. the color white is not a single color, but a shade made up of every color. i believe that the use of the color white is used to show the confusion, insecurity, and drug use in smith’s life. the notion if he bleeding white even further solidifies the fact that this confusion has embodied him.

The Hush Sound – Hourglass Lyrics 19 years ago
i believe this is about unavoiding the akward stage after you break up with a bf/gf.

"That’s when the puzzle was finally pieced
We compromised until our bodies siezed
To some we seem like colder creatures well
We were warm until we went to hell"

i imagine that the lines about talk about post break up sex, when the feelings are there, but both individuals are confuised about thir position they hold with eachother.


can it really go back to the way it was before they dated?

The Hush Sound – City Traffic Puzzle Lyrics 19 years ago
"I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold
I don’t want to love you if love is this alone"

obviously this guy is unhappy with happy and unfulfilled with his relationship at the time for what ever reason and is trying to escape it.

Guster – Happier Lyrics 19 years ago
so the singer is singing about "ditching his friends"

"Like your father said, just do what was done unto you"

so now he is going to get his friends back

Guster – Barrel Of A Gun Lyrics 19 years ago
i dont feel like it is entirely about "wanking it"(ok maybe a little bit), but is about the over emphasis that society puts on recognizing movie stars as heros

the movie star gives the singer a false sense of security, and when he realizes that she is mearly a poster on his wall, he is disapointed with her
