Ingrid Michaelson – You and I Lyrics 14 years ago
Oh man.
5 of my friends sang this at our graduation assembly.
It was amazing.
Half our year was in tears.
It's just about hope and the future.

Seether – Love Her Lyrics 15 years ago
the references to paying and what not are making me lean toward the prostitute interpretation..
it almost sounds as if he's fallen in love with a prostitute, and he's stunned at the darkness she's got on the inside.
Then she kills herself...
And he's left with the thought that the only way she'd ever let anyone in would be if they paid her, because she'd never believe anyone would want her for anything else.

Rise Against – Savior Lyrics 15 years ago
hmm. my boyfriend dumped me, stayed with me for the whole night..
His phone alarm woke us both up at like 6:30 am, with this song..
I'm too tired to find the irony in this.

Seether – Walk Away From The Sun Lyrics 15 years ago
My favourite off the album.
For some reason I've always been happy with not knowing what its about.
I just like how it makes me feel
And the line... "Walk away from the sun and kill everyone"
Just love the imagery.

The Offspring – Gone Away Lyrics 15 years ago
I lost my best friend last year to terminal illness.
Last night my boyfriend got me to listen to this.
He was saying that he hates it when songwriters just bullshit about things they haven't experienced.
That's what makes this such a good song.
He feels every word.
Poor guy.

Matchbox Twenty – You Won't Be Mine Lyrics 16 years ago
Everytime I hear this song, I seem to find a new layer to it.
It's probably been said countless times [I can't be bothered reading] but...
I think its about a girl who is so... everything... and he knows it- but she's been lying, and obviously stuffed up her chance with him.
And he's saying that when she realises what she's been doing she's going to be "strong, rich, in love" and she'll carry on [perhaps saying that she could easily find someone else]
But at the same time, she won't be his.
And by the sounds of things, he was the most important thing.
Now it's gone.

Chilling. I love it.

Phil Collins – In The Air Tonight Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't know what this song is about. When I was writing this I was going through a divorce. And the only thing I can say about it is that it's obviously in anger. It's the angry side, or the bitter side of a separation. So what makes it even more comical is when I hear these stories which started many years ago, particularly in America, of someone come up to me and say, 'Did you really see someone drowning?' I said, 'No, wrong'. And then every time I go back to America the story gets Chinese whispers, it gets more and more elaborate. It's so frustrating, 'cos this is one song out of all the songs probably that I've ever written that I really don't know what it's about, you know."

Matchbox Twenty – Last Beautiful Girl Lyrics 16 years ago
Interesting.
I could say all this about a certain guy at the moment..
And change the world "girl"
...
Wow. That's pretty much exactly him, actually.

It's got a kinda "You Won't Be Mine" type meaning to it...
They're much the same.
Basically, she's screwed him around, and he knows he can do better, and she probably could get anyone, but if she turns around and wants him back, his answer is "Not if you were the last beautiful girl in the world"
As in, its too late, you've really stuffed up this time.

Yeah. I can relate.

Tabitha's Secret – The Only One Lyrics 17 years ago
*Happy Sigh*
It's beautiful.
And I'm the first to comment! Whoop!
I think it's about him being paranoid that she might be cheating on him, or that she may not care about him as much as she used to.
She's annoyed because he doesn't trust her.
So he's trying to justify his reasons- "I only wanted..." trying to make himself sound more innocent.

Love the song.
Especially the part where the music gets heavier and more up-beat...
Dude... I can totally relate. Paranoia is a bitch!

Mudvayne – Happy? Lyrics 17 years ago
This is just one big metaphore really...
Someones just tearing him apart and he's wondering if theyre just doing it for their own amusement
Hence
"Does it make you happy now?"
He can feel them inside him, trying to tear their way out through the skin..
Hence
"I feel you on the inside, biting through and stinging"

Awesome song.

Matchbox Twenty – Bed Of Lies Lyrics 17 years ago
The thing about Matchbox Twenty is that the songs Rob writes are so easy to relate to.
Everyone has a band that seems to write about them and their lives.
Any breakup.
Any relationship.
Any situation.
Its rather amazing.
I just got Mad Season yesterday.
Pretty sure I'm in love with it.
Anyway- this song is as everyones saying- the relationship is turning into a lie and he doesn't think he can stand it any longer...
But he really wishes he could.

Chris Daughtry – It's Not Over Lyrics 17 years ago
He was on american idol?
I'm glad he didnt win
Coz this song wouldnt be out if he had..

Its wonderful!

I reckon its about a relationship thats about to die...
But he's in such denial
"It's not over..."

Hes saying she means the world to him
And he'd do anything to make things between them right again.

Does such a guy exist??

Matchbox Twenty – Bright Lights Lyrics 17 years ago
It's amazing how their songs can just get to you...
It just ends up feeling as though it was written about you or your current situation.
And the best thing about it, is that you may not be the correct meaning
But all the same you feel like you can relate to it.
[Although, I kinda have to reverse the genders]
To me: it's about being screwed around.
My definition of screwed around:
The guy who you are slowly falling in love with is telling you that he has feelings for you.
Unfortunately he lives on the other side of the city.
He says a relationship MIGHT be possible next year, when you are 16.
He was the one that left.
Not you.
You're scared he's going to meet some amazing girl who will change his life.
Then forget about you.
His whole world is changing.
Yours isn't.
You're stuck where you always have been and nothing is any different.
And you feel lost, because you feel so strongly about him.
But he's keeping you on a thread and all you want is for him to
"Turn himself around and come on home"

The relevance to the song is
That it actually took him moving away for me to realise my feelings for him.
[Some things you can't see, Until it gets too late]
And
That I'm still a part of his life
[She keeps a picture of me etc.]

I know the songs not really about that.. But something very similar. Most of you have hit the nail on the head with your meanings, personal, factual, or otherwise.

12 Stones – Broken Lyrics 17 years ago
Hmm... It kinda irks me when I find out that songs I like are about Jesus or God.
I'm not religious at all.
Athiest, actually.
And I tend to try to find personal meaning for songs.
With songs about christianity etc, I can't find personal meaning..
So I 'll just have to overlook that, and see it shallowly for a song about a girl.
It's an awesome song
No matter what it's about
12 Stones are SOO talented and Paul McCoy is beautiful

Linkin Park – Breaking The Habit Lyrics 17 years ago
I'm not sure if I've commented on this yet.
And it'd be pretty stupid if I hadn't.
I'd like to start by saying
BEST. SONG. EVER.
Meaning:
I don't think it's about drugs.
"You all assume I'm safe here in my room etc."
I think thats self harm
"Breaking the habit"
Could either be referring to ending it all- killing himself... as the video clip would imply.
[best clip ever might i add]
OR
It's implying that he's going to break the habit of hurting himself
"But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean"
Could be the clarity suicidal people often feel before actually killing themselves.

*sigh*
I do love Chester.

I agree that its about extreme hate.
People just fucking you around and bagging you until it gets too much.
Have ye not seen the video?
Hes just at school and copping it from people until he suddenly goes mental.
Its about getting back at them.
Rape could be a metaphor... I dunno.

Evanescence – Thoughtless (Korn cover) Lyrics 17 years ago
John Davis liked the cover.
And yes, Amy is a huge fan of Korn.
For all you tools having a go at them for swearing- does it really matter?
Amy swears in real life- Don't we all?
Why is it suddenly such a problem if she says FUCK in a song?
[and ass, depending on what you reckon it says]
Havent heard the Korn version as of yet, coz I only just heard this one, but I'm about to...
Anyway
Excellent cover.
Amy's amazing no matter what she does
{as is Korn}
Evanescences covers are all great.
Including heartshaped box...
I'm pretty sure I've commented on that one too. Its just so pathetic that all you knobs come to the evanescence lyrics and bitch about them
Why bother? You're only going to get critisized by the actual fans.
Everyones got different taste in music... just deal with it.
Just because you like/dislike a certain band or genre doesnt make you a better person...

Just my 2 cents.
