| Puscifer – Toma Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Toma is a spanish way of saying "To Drink" but it's often used as a euphemism for "suck me off" which is what I generally get from this song. The jilted ex boyfriend is in the space between love and hate for a woman who wronged him. He no longer feels romantic towards her but still wants to redeem his masculinity by dominating her...making her "take what you dish out..." and drink away... | |
| Florence + the Machine – Heavy in Your Arms Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I don't think she wrote this song thinking about some fictional vampire love at all. This song hit right home for me as someone who has struggled with severe depression and almost lost my beloved as a result of it. "I was a heavy heart to carry"...when I was depressed my boyfriend had to soothe me all the time to be more than what is usually asked in a relationship. He was weighed down. "Is it worth the wait all this killing time? Are you strong enough to stand protecting both your heart and mine?" She's asking him if she's worth him waiting for her to come out from under her depression if he can stay this way for a while longer holding both of them up. The betrayer/killer in the crowd is depression. She felt that she is a curse to those that she loves because of she's an emotional drain. "I love you never felt like any blessing. Whisper it like it's a secret uttered to condemn the one who hears it with a heavy heart." The last verse is her redemption. Though she was heavy he never gave up on her. He held her up ("my feet never touched the ground") until she could stand again on her own. I cried when I first heard it. She sings it with such conviction and emotion you know it's her own feelings and not the imagined ones of a silly teen drama movie. The imagery is beautiful and almost has a religious like undertone to it. Simply one of the best songs I've ever heard. |
