Bright Eyes – Nothing Gets Crossed Out Lyrics 18 years ago
i feel like this song has a lot of references to "catcher in the rye"

first of all, "my head's a carousel of pictures..."
in the book he takes his little sister to a carousel in a park.

"Yeah, I know I should be brave
But I'm just too afraid of all this change"
Holden is deathly afraid of change. he's only comfortable in places he knows will never change.


"Guess I'll just keep moving
Someday maybe I'll get to where I'm going"
Holden always seems to be wandering around.


what do you guys thinkkk?!

Bright Eyes – A Line Allows Progress, a Circle Does Not Lyrics 18 years ago
"try to name one thing you like, you used to have such a longer list"

I'm thinking this part is a Reference to Catcher in the Rye.
cause in the book Holden's sister Phoebe was trying to get Holden to name one thing he liked.
...and he couldn't.

ammmmazing song.

Brand New – Okay I Believe You, but My Tommy Gun Don't Lyrics 19 years ago
"Oh, my tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart
And it's all from watching TV
and from speeding up my breathing"

So i'm pretty sure this whole song is about TBS and mocking them.
the part i put in quotes is saying that all Taking Back Sunday's lyrics either are about sex or things they see on TV or movies, like the monologue from Beautiful Girls in "greatest romances of the 20th century"

Don't get me wrong, i love TBS... they're amazing.

Bright Eyes – We Are Nowhere and It's Now Lyrics 19 years ago
If you hate the taste of wine
Why do you drink it until you're blind?
And if you swear that there's no truth and who cares
How come you say it like you're right?

Why are you scared to dream of God
When it's salvation that you want?
You see stars that clear have been dead for years
But the idea just lives on

...the ironies of life.

Dashboard Confessional – Several Ways To Die Trying Lyrics 19 years ago
i bought this CD, and loved the other songs, but never really gave this one a chance until about a month ago. this song always started off so...not boring...but not pulling you in to listen to it.

and now that i've listened to it, it's become one of my favorite dashboard songs. it's SUCH a good song. really.

Dashboard Confessional – Slow Decay Lyrics 19 years ago
And I’m hear alive
With sattelites
And Friday nights
And no one to judge me
Or the things that I’ve done at all
So how could I live with that?

He might mean here that the people he killed are being judged for all the things they've done, by God. He's saying that he's alive and he doesn't have to suffer for any of his actions (killing other people) or any of the things he's done throughout his life, when the people he killed have to go through the ultimate judgement before Christ.

maybe??

Dashboard Confessional – Stolen Lyrics 19 years ago
I love this song. It reminds me of the summer ending, and you've just fallen in love with everything about summer.

"...another sun soaked season fades away...
You have stolen my heart"

I'm in love with this song. it's so great. i think the best part of it is when he says, "i'm done feeling like a skeleton, no more sleepwalking dead..." it's just great.

Dashboard Confessional – Reason To Believe Lyrics 19 years ago
This song really reminds me of running.

"My capillaries scream there's nothing left to feed on.
My body needs a reason to cross that line.
Will you carry me there one more time?"

So maybe it's about running?
