| Metric – Black Sheep Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
pretty sure a lot of it is metaphor. i'd say it's about a complicated friendship.. one of them has pretty low self esteem and the other is there to kind of pick up the pieces and show them somebody cares. chorus explains it. 'send you my love on a wire, lift you up every time everyone pulls away from you' think of it like the friend is trying to make a romantic move on somebody, but they get shot down, the person pulls away, and you have to 'lift up' thier spirits. at the same time your friend has so much pride that they never admit to any of this kind of situation. 'Now that the truth is just a rule that you can bend You crack the whip, shape-shift and trick, the past again' and just continues to try and look cool 'got balls of steel, got an automobile..' |

| The Dillinger Escape Plan – Milk Lizard Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
"My thick tongue hangs down low to the ground Licking up the sweat coming off of her heels" I don't think this line relates to a foot fetish. I think it's more to do with him lusting after her and because she's leading him on he's hot on her tail.. licking up the sweat from her heels is like.. he's kinda following behind but it's just a more interesting and visual way of saying it. |

"hope for the hopeless coming undone." "she is a cold fucking SNAP but she is not the end." |
|
| Gallows – In the Belly of a Shark Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i think it's just about thinking about all the other guys that would try to hit on a woman that you're interested. when he talks about being cold and dark int he belly of the shark i think maybe he doesn't like his jealousy and the belly of the shark is his mind? convincing her to come in too would be proving to her that she likes him too. in the end he decided that he'll try and wipe out the competition. |
|
| Chiodos – Lexington (Joey Pea-Pot With A Monkey Face) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
..it's pretty clear to me that it's a bit more sinister than a lot of you guys think. he loves the girl, she doesn't love him.. but he's physically not going to let her go. he plans to take her captive because he doesn't care that she wants to leave. 'let them say what they please, you won't be leaving my arms, ever. even if you want me to let go. even if you say the things that make me want lose you.' second verse sounds like he tells her that he will love her forever but she pretty much laughs at the idea of being in love with him. i hear the bridge's first line as being 'Screaming from the sight of me.' |
|
| Gallows – The Vulture (Acts I & II) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
'you will be remembered, no-one will speak your name' makes sense to me.. the way i see the song is it's about someone who works with a dictator (like Adolf Hitler or similar) so that line is about infamy and he'll be remembered for his horrible acts..so people won't speak the name because of that? could be about Josef Mengele the so called Angel of Death. try looking at it this way way, when you work for the father (Führer) your sin is never saved (too vile an act) you carry the net (rounding up minorities) and he holds the spade (to bury them) you will drag the lakes (own the land) and he will rob the graves (disrespect the dead) Cursed are the places you have been You lead us there and forced us in (death camps) Take the girls to become the daughters (he expiramented on children, called them his own) If the horses wont drink drown them in the water. ('you can lead a horse to water but can't make it drink', kill those who don't accept your beliefs or do what you say) just my view on it. |
|
| The Dillinger Escape Plan – The Mullet Burden Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i would have said it's about a heroin addict. ya know how before shooting up ya have to slap your veins to get the blood flowing. 'now cringe to slap the wrist' also the whole 'i wonder if you would, i would if you could' suggests to me it's about trying to quit and not being able to. 'please just a small taste of the offer unrefused' to me sounds like begging for one more hit when they would never need to beg because a dealer is only to happy to provide. 'the nonexistent won't care when you fail to wake', the friends they lost won't know or care when they overdose. just my reading. |
|
| The Fall of Troy – Macaulay McCulkin Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i can see how ya mean, lol. both very creepy and perverted lyrics by frantic screamo-ish bands. Denver however is more abstract and is less about stalking and more about kidnapping a minor and running away with her, thinking she loves him. this is the darkest side of unrequited love. |
|
| Circle Takes the Square – A Crater to Cough In Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
just a couple of things i think i might mention. the lead singer, Drew, is a pisces, hence the 'path that every pisces craves', this song is written from his perspective in this sense. also, IF the path that they walk upon, the collection of points the rain has drawn, is in fact a body of water, then that means they are walking on a path of water, which kinda links back to all the biblical references in 'same shade as concrete' with references to slaves, sinking at sea, ones burial and so i on, i think the song in general is about trying to overcome inner torment (sinking feelings) on a journey of self discovery. fits with the theme of the album. also, yes the album is circular, the wistling, the intro to this song (and it's main melody) and the end chant on 'interview at the ruins' are all the same melody. also it contains numerous passages of circular lyrics, again like the chant on interview at the ruins but also in this song in the section containing 'to our grave, dragged and bound, to the tomb, by a scavengers tooth, by our mane' |
|
| Crystal Castles – Courtship Dating Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
to me the song is about entrapment in a relationship. the girl burns her hands and shows her freinds to make the guy seem like he's abusive. the words 'Make you participate' go hand in hand witht the line 'Need you to procreate'. the verses to me are about her thinking about him. 'how do i feel for the? you smell great, diseased' |

| Lodger – 24h Candy Machine Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
it's very basic. not about drugs or hookers. it's just about the idea of a woman that you can basicaly have sex with with no strings or comitment. sugar free. watch the 'one eyed films' filmclip for it. |
|
| Anberlin – Cadence Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
this song would be improved 10 fold if it did'nt have the overtly religeous chorus and that. i mean, i'm fine with christian bands in theory but i'd prefer it was kept like an undertone. this is probably the most obviously christian anberlin song i've heard. ..and musicaly cool, but lyricaly it's a turn off. |
|
| Drop Dead, Gorgeous – It Sounded Like An Accident Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
there was another killing where he cleaned the wounds after he stabbed the girl, makes me wonder if this song isnt so much about this one murder but a few of them. also i wanna express my thoughts that the website for the mystery kinda sucks. the photos they have of the victims wound's are inconsistant with the writing and the pictures showing where the wounds were meant to be..and they all have emo hair that nobody would have had in the late 70's..it's just unconvincing is all, and it woulda been easy enough to fix that. |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – Shine Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i believe the shine reference is to diamonds, cos a 'clouded' diamond is menat to be worth less than a clear one which makes sense in terms of this song. so basicaly it's like someones tell him he's like a clouded diamond. that he aint worth shit and that he's fuckin boring. |
|
| Helloween – Dr. Stein Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| seems to me to be about a doctor who clones people he wants to have sex with..his assistant for starters.. | |
| SikTh – Bland Street Bloom Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i like how they add some extra words in their sentances that make em harder to say. like when they say 'Like stuffing a turkey' it's actualy more like 'Like stuffing in the turkey' |
|
| Nickelback – Figured You Out Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
..the white stains on the dress are cum. the long lines and powder on nose is coke. theres a mix of sex and drug refferenses. plus coke wouldnt stain. and i'm pretty sure it's written satyricaly. i.e. the singer doesnt actualy mean all this, it's a story about someone else. so..yer..stfu noobz? |
|
| Kittie – Career Suicide Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
yeah, i think it's about talena but it seems to be in a regative light, and i think the suicide thing is more metaphorical than that. instead of 'social suicide' it's 'career suicide' meaning that she did something to make her unpopular in her career, I E the band. they say she was a slow learner. |

| Drop Dead, Gorgeous – Girl, Are You On Your... Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
lol, obviously it's about the streets running red with blood dude. in fact, the 'Highlight this valley' line sounds completely off to me, i always thought he was saying 'run red, red with blood, with blood, red with blood'. it's not rape i don't think. just sounds like he had sex with her, she blead and he fealt realy bad and guilty about it. i mean, it's stupid to say that they wouldnt write a song 'about just sex', millions of songs are about 'just sex'. |

| Strapping Young Lad – Zen Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| i get the impression that most of this album is based around relationships between men and women. this song seems to be an inward reflection of some thoughts he has. this thinking is inclusive of the partner, hence all the changes in singular and plural, from 'way I'm feeling' to 'way we're feeling' and stuff. | |
| Lamb of God – An Extra Nail For Your Coffin Lyrics | 18 years ago |

| Red Hot Chili Peppers – Purple Stain Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| you're all fuckin weird. i cant see a single reference to a chick with red or purple hair. and yeah, a lot of it doesnt have anything to do with either topcs discussed, like the aligator bit, but the first verse is obviosly about (to be graffic) sticking your finger into a womans pussy, pulling it out and having your finger covered in period blood. simple enough to read. | |
| Ween – Transdermal Celebration Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| umm..it's basicaly word salad...i mean, the words like not an ounce of sense, and far from drug use, i think they're basicaly attempting to use big words and sound smart to people who don't know what the words mean, but they look like idiots when people findout that a celebration cannot be transdermal. | |
| Cannibal Corpse – Blood Drenched Execution Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
imprisonedthought - I agree with Jbrask, you are wrong on so much of your speel. "People dont go up in arms and want a horror movie banned when it contains gore scenes," you couldnt be more wrong in fact, people get up in arms over horror movies over thier gory scenes, to the extent of them being banned in certain countries. films like Cannibal Holocoust, GuineaPig 2: flower of flesh and blood are just a couple international titles that are banned for showing extreme emulated violent acts such as cannibalism, impalement and various forms of mutilation. |

|
easy, 'Frantic Disembowelment'. "intestines removed by violent thrusts, the innards removed, disecting the guts, tearing through the skin and muscle" "frenzied hacking, morals lacking, eviscorate, life is gone before my eyes." Brutal. |
|
| Cannibal Corpse – Orgasm Through Torture Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
if you don't wanna read lyrics like this, perhaps you should have typed 'cannibal corpse' into your search bar? think of that? what did you expect to get? sunshine lollypops? nope, i reckon ya did'nt, i reckon ya probably searched it because you wanted to see something gross for the sake of bagging it. weak. |
|
| Cannibal Corpse – Severed Penis Blowjobs Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
ya know what. i have doupts that this is a cannibal corpse song, it's not written like one at all. it basicaly is telling a reworded section of some of the lyrics to 'orgasm through torture' and is titled it seems a lot like 'severed head stoning'. also it says 'I smell the decay' but obviously if the person is not even dead there should be no decay to smell. fake? |
|
| Cannibal Corpse – Severed Head Stoning Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| personaly, i doupt you could play this song, or sing it. and i found it quite catchy, sure it's less brutal a story than some of thier others, but oh well, good solo. | |
| Strapping Young Lad – Shitstorm Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| lol, the symptoms of bipolar are very rarely rage. if that were true devin would have probably never even made or written alian because he would have been so low he couldnt function properly, the other half the time he'd be happy as hell and not in the mood to write this stuff. | |
| Strapping Young Lad – Far Beyond Metal Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
verses: 'out in the prow of the necro lord, you're a fucking asshole. one time and i'm out of control, yeah you fucking suck. hey! out in the prowl of an alley way, you're a fucking pussy. one time and i'm outa control, yeah you fucking suck shit!" |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – Velvet Kevorkian Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
my copie of this song doesnt have these lyrics, from what i can hear it seems to say... "HEY! can you beleave this shit people!? all i need is your sin and this mind/you singing this line, and i will get by. fuck sleep. fuck value. yes. yes. but you can never look back because we'll never get a second chance We're not people who can take the presure (live dev sings 'but you can never get a second chance because you are all fucking ugly, you mean it, i mean it, fuck you!') are you listening? are you? fuck yeah! a new time has come ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls; WELCOME THE FUCK HOME!' |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – AAA Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i reckon it's a bit about Dev's youth. right from the beggining it references him in his teens. it sounds like he was with a bad crowd (which he also makes a mention of in 'Detox' with the line 'with the wrong people'), the village idiots and so he was marked ad a hopeless case. he begins to rebell, he 'wants a word with the master' to to tell the people in charge to fuck off, because nobody fucks with him. devy got a taste of some dark shit, i'm thinking drugs. he could have quit them easily, but he kept using them so it never worked out that way. i think it's got stuff in comen with the song Detox, which i assume is about trying to give up a drug useage, like herion via a detox method, and this is the precurser. |
|
| Imogen Heap – Hide and Seek Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
somehow people seem to miss that it's actualy about george bush and the war on terror, but in particular, september 11th. dust falling, people in gasping in the street thinking 'this cant be happening' and george bush saying 'lets go to war, this is for our own good!' but oily stains begin to appear and she doesnt beleive in his claims. you all suck. not every dong is about relationship breakdown. |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – Possessions Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
cha, about having babies. quite obvious and also can be heard when watching the documentary on the making of 'Alien'. the female choir singing 'god damn i need IT' talking about her needing sex, which then changes to 'god damn i need TO' need to concieve. this then changes again to 'god damn WE NEED TO'. this change to 'we' is used in another song of the album in 'we ride' in the bit where he says "I know I have my issues, and WE know YOU have YOURS!" also, the sample at the begining of 'Love?' says 'there's no external way to tell when a woman is ready to concieve'. |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – Thalamus Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
along with most of the other songs off Alien. this song is about women in relationships. 'Close your eyes and believe Believe that the garden is all that you need Believe you must bow to your knees' beleave that all you need is a ralationship and that you must do anything to keep your woman, even bow to your knees. don't beleave it? try listening to 'Love?', 'We Ride' and 'Possessions' off of Alien. also the Thalamus is one of two parts of the human brain that is responsable for aggressive behavior. thus furthering the relationship thing. one of the couple, the thalamus. creating aggression. |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – Skeksis Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
if you think about it. the formula presented in this song equals: Metal. metal. the music that 'controls' an awkward sole and 'draws' people into it. colour, relating to the numbers (mathimatical equations of music), thus relates to SOUND, sound made with influence of WAR and SEX, to create a FORM, which aplied to HEARING creates ALL GOD VIBRATION. the complexity of strapping in itself, is 'a multiverse in just one thing'. the skeksis reference is linked to the obvious sarcasm through imitation of people devin dislikes. this is where strappings comedy comes in. the skeksis are evil and misunderstanding fools, cretins, short haired and frail, and they're into math and science. the uhru (the good side) are good, peacefull, singing, long heared, instroment playing dudes that draw symbols everywhere...metalheads? |
|
| Frank Zappa – Are You Hung Up Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| the introduction has to do with the theme of the album. it's an anti psychadelic drug statement. portraying a bunch of babling, surreal idiots asking meaningless questions to eachother. | |
| Strapping Young Lad – We Ride Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
these quotes are then punctuated with a 'put it in gear mutharfuckargh' to asselerate the words in hostility even further. tonight we ride is more about 'tonight we ride onward to hell', nothing about cars. idiots. |
|
| Strapping Young Lad – We Ride Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
are you all fucking insane or just stupid? it's serious although most strapping songs have a hint of humour. it's a reflection of his partner and some of the shit she says to him. she obviously has said stuff like "i'ts not my fault, i was raised this way", to which dev says "yes, you are a product of that environment. but change is always there if you want it" and the stuff about relationships is all obvious quotes of her (stereotypical as they are). there is a trend on this album to outline negatives in female life partners, in songs like 'love?' and 'possession' |

| Interpol – Take You on a Cruise Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
...no. just no. why does everyone assume interpol is about sex and disorders? how about fucking no. i see it as a song that says 'alright, if you want to leave me, thats fine, your problem, because theres nothing like this built today, you'll never see a finer man than me' not in a self centered way, but self confidance and the power to deal with that shit. it's helped me. and the idea that it's about rape? just fuck off. i find thier songs often open to interpretation by the listener. so if your looking for rape...good for you? ugh. |
|
| Eminem – Fack Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
umm..yeah the gerbil thing is nothing to do with south park or richard gere. so called "gerbling" is an actual sex practice, ridiculous as it may seem. this is why references for it come up to often, for example in the beggining of the film 'mall rats'. people should understand that there are a lot of sexual fetishes out there and should not be surprized to hear that some people like rodants in their asses. the song is a joke, not a failure, not a final maddness. i would have thought eminem fans would have noticed the trend eminem likes to follow in a lot of his songs, which is obvious satyrical songs which show by how exadurated, so you actualy think 'role model' is insighting people to tie ropes to thier penis's and jump from trees? no. |
|
| Lamb of God – Redneck Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
in other log songs it talks about "southern drawls' in a negative light. they don't like rednecks. this is just about punkass rednecks who can eat shit. a motherfucking invitation to fuck off and die. the only one you'll ever need because you try my patience. the fact that it has a slight country feel gives it more impact because not only does it encrease the likelyhood that rednecks might like it and listen to it then get the message, but it also improves on country stylings and takes the piss. |
|
| Frank Zappa – Harry, You're A Beast Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
it's not that it sounds like the beatles, it's just that the entire album is specificaly attempting to recreate the exact sounds of hippie music, the drums being a big part of it. a big thing on this album is the use of happy sounding music against lyrics that show a rather more dark scene, for example in this case, drunken rape. |
