| Iron & Wine – Sodom, South Georgia Lyrics | 18 years ago |

Speculating on religious beliefs based on lyrics is irrelevant? Uh, I must beg to differ. How is looking for hidden meaning in art foolish? I thought that was the whole purpose of this site. An artist's lyrics, especially with someone as talented as Sam Beam, are most often the clearest window into their soul. And I don't care who disagrees with me..people can always speculate on something but there is no way to know for a fact what someone else means by something unless they explain it. |

| Iron & Wine – Sodom, South Georgia Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"And in my opinion, he realizes the reality of life and that there isnt a true God, because what kind of God would let people die?" This is a stupid statement. People live and people die, it's the way of life. Death makes way for the new life, as in this song - the same day his father dies his baby is born. To say that God does not exist because people die is just plain ridiculous. I think that Sam believes in the existence of God but that God is either not active in his or anyone's life and simply watches everything or simply doesn't care about the people of the world. Sam is a lyrical mastermind; no one else can really know for sure the deep meaning of his words. |

| Cassino – boomerang Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I'm breaking up, for the gravity's won before it snaps where the warm blood runs cause it will flood our bodies soon flood this hotel room oh blue collar ruins the rags I wear I closed the vents come and claim the air and I hope the ceiling gives in since you got a hold of it and skinned it for the look of me I've got everything coming back, a boomerang of lead baby, I've got it bad "but I can't empty the bed", she said the creature that roams the street at night will bite me straight in half these sinking shoes will sink me soon so hold me up til my feet sink through and who dares, such a giant leap where a giant's sleeping I hear it breathing, I hear it up above sick in the attic with my digital love and I fear the ceiling's rising since you got a hold of it and skinned it for the sound of me the creature that's eating this street at night is clawing at my back |

| Cassino – The Old Year Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
She leaps higher than the scale and then falls like iron and screaming air right down in front of me I don't know how it came to this, I'm so scarred up with cigarettes, cigarettes and leaks but I know I'll always stay posessed like some preacher to a crucifix if you drive your nails into me we're sitting on the floor in a pile trading our arms for some wings of harm and I am goddamned been blown from the hinge and now I can barely stand oh Jaelyn I can, I can feel you like the wind the beatings that rotation brings has us bedding down on anything but as our shrinking lives collide and ring the sound is beautiful and lean I never planned to live like this, empty vaults, a rolling kiss oh I never plan on anything sitting on the floor in a smile I'm tearing apart like poverty art and you are God sent I fear it's getting close to the end I can feel it in the warm ailing wind she says "I don't want to think about that cause I am married to imaginary friends" so come on, come on in |

| Cassino – Lolita Lyrics | 18 years ago |

Lolita, she's got the songs of sirens, she's got it all painted so humbly over the bathroom wall but the porcelain drips and she breaks up so quick and now I'm left with the bastard of the ambassador's lips Lolita, I love her, she's perfect all over built like a bridge made of four leaf clovers throwing winks to a monster that keeps them forever to have in pockets and lockets that will float as she drowns I know that it's almost over but it keeps starting over I know this beautiful belle that rings just for money as the sound moves her body and I hope they treat you well cause there are no words that can save us now Lolita on fire, I'm feeling so old and tired but her eyes are unfrozen, filled with admire she sells like liquor as the planet gets thicker it gets so much heavier the closer we stand and I know that music is over but it keeps starting over that's how it goes so come on, come around my new engine of love watch it roll over, watch it move the ground Lolita, they found her with love all around her tied to a vial full of life's cheapest eyeliner |
