Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution – It's A Wonderful Life Lyrics 19 years ago
Somehow I find this metaphorical? Like, he's not talking about conventional war. Just... I don't know what, though.

Archie Star – Let's Get Married Lyrics 19 years ago
I think the marriage part can be taken metaphorically or literal. I think them being together is irrational in any sense, but he doesn't care, so he's saying "lets just get married!". as in.. lets just go for it all, forget what everyone else thinks, forget what we SHOULD do. or, yeah, it could be taken straight out and literal.

Relient K – My Girl's Ex-Boyfriend Lyrics 19 years ago
i second what "napasah" said. and i don't see how this can be related to christianity, unless it's used metaphorically, because this song reaalllyy says it out in plain black and white.

Jets to Brazil – You're Having the Time of My Life Lyrics 19 years ago
i agree with half cab. i believe its more his fault, rather than the girls, and now he has remorse and realizes what he did. now she's over it, maybe, which could explain "you're having the time of your life", but he's still hanging around. "i love you much too late" explains a lot too.

Mae – Giving It Away Lyrics 19 years ago
I think it's about a couple in love, and the guy is really insecure about what the girl wants, and he's just telling her he'd be anything she wanted, because without her, hes lost and if he were with any other girl he'd be "giving it away". "giving it away" in the sense that he would merely be acting but, just not FEELING like he does with this girl.

Rilo Kiley – Always Lyrics 19 years ago
i agree with hankpiece.
she just has a bitter tone when she belts "i'll alwaaayys love/want you" almost sarcastically? pushing out the frustration that she feels from his lies and generic-ness

Relient K – Which To Bury, Us Or The Hatchet Lyrics 19 years ago
I think it's very clear what this song is about. I don't think it holds a religious meaning, but it could for you, and thats awesome as well. What I get from it is the all-too-common situation where a couple is broken up, in love, and trying to work things out. I believe Matt is trying and trying to get this girl to forgive him and get her forgiveness but she just won't but it. Perhaps she's making him wait while she makes her decision. And it's just irking him because he's putting in all his effort, and now he is getting sick of it. And thinks she took her demands too far. so now hes sort of given up, but he still loves her, so hes not fully ready to be the one to leave.

The Rocket Summer – Goodbye Waves and Driveways Lyrics 19 years ago
I do think it's self explanatory, and not open to interpretation. It's about a couple thats in love, but they just fight and fight.
"we can be so mad we considered not to exist.
We both know that there’s so much love clenched between our fists."
They think about breaking up because of all these silly arguments and pointless fights, but the fact at the end of the day, is they're in love.
Which is explains in the "Flag" metaphor.

I also love how it starts with "walk away" and end in "don't walk away". definetely reflects the mixed emotions and wantings during an argument.

"we both lose to win"
I love that line so much, and when you fight with a lover, that needs to be kept in mind. You win the fight, yes, but you might lose the ultimate battle. Good stuff.

Something Corporate – You're Gone Lyrics 19 years ago
The whole song sounds like an attempt to get back with her, or at least the wanting to, but then the ever-so-famous "If you don’t like being hurt then please don’t stay", makes me think otherwise. Or at least think that there is more to it than the simple wanting to get back with someone.

Something Corporate – Miss America Lyrics 19 years ago
I'm just going to reflect on one line here.
"I will hold my breath for you till I can't feel it"
I believe that means, he is going to wait and wait until he just can't feel no more.

Something Corporate – I Won't Make You Lyrics 19 years ago
I really like how a lot of people came to the conclusion that it was of a bitter end to a relationship. I agree completely. I think it was his fault. And I believe he's trying to do the right thing now by not forcing her, or putting her through absolute hell just for his 'selfish' desire.

"And it's been hours now
To be here like this
And just to lay you down
And just to taste your lips
And just to keep me up
God I'm tired of sleeping
And just to lay inside you
And just to know this feeling"

Definetely my favorite part. I think he's finally feeling selfless and appreciating everything he can get from her now. Meh, but I don't know.

Ben Gibbard – Couches in Alleys Lyrics 19 years ago
wow, i really like when artists write about books. it becomes really personal, when you've actually read the book yourself too. I should probably pick this "on the road" up.
