Brand New – Degausser Lyrics 15 years ago
Alright, this one will probably sound a lot different to what I've been reading so far. Jesse actually stated this at one of their gigs I went to.
He told us that the song was about a parasite, similar to Spinochordodes tellinii, which eats its way in to grasshoppers and produces a toxin that forces them to crawl out in to the open so that they are eaten by birds.
I can definitely see this in the lyrics with its many suicidal tones. To me the song is from the grasshopper's point of view, going delusional and eventually being taken away by the bird in the last verse
'Well you're my favorite bird and when you sing
I really do wish that you'd wear my ring
No matter what they say, I am still the king
Now the storm is coming, the storm is coming in'

Something With Numbers – Apple of the Eye (Lay me down) Lyrics 19 years ago
Note that Tim (the backup singer) sings the first word that Jake (lead singer) sings on the next line. I forgot to chuck that in.

ie:
(Perfect)
Perfect distraction pale flesh
(Silver)
Silver armor covering death

Something With Numbers – Apple of the Eye (Lay me down) Lyrics 19 years ago
Wow, could those lyrics be any more off? Heh
Anyway, heres the ones from the actual booklet:

Softly and slowly gently in vain
The window is open its pouring rain
Thunder and lightning a heated night
Sneaky intentions but certain delight
A lesson to learn failure denied
Reason uncertain I'm leaving tonight
Promise refusal deflection degrade
Bottle desire liquid pain

Lay me down I'm listening,
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that
Tell me now I'm begging
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that

Perfect distraction pale flesh
Silver armor covering death
Boyish desire needless pain
Fire is fire light as day

Lay me down I'm listening,
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that
Tell me now I'm begging
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that

Give me the right of opinion
Just give me a go
Swallow your pride and stop thinking
Give me a go
Give me the right of opinion
Just give me a go
Swallow your pride and stop thinking
Give me a go

Lay me down I'm listening,
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that
Tell me now I'm begging
I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that

I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that

I've already seen a true romance
And it don't look like that
