| Bloc Party – Signs Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
i think it's autobiographical, or part of a series of songs that fit together about the loss of someone to cancer, see also "biko".
i also think it's about the grief that comes after a death, and about being in denial. |

| Bloc Party – Mercury Lyrics

it's a horoscope.
"my mercury's in retrograde, this is not the time the time to start a new love, this is not the time the time to sign a lease."
it reads like a horoscope you get in a trashy magazine.
AND IT'S BRILLIANT. |

| Mirah – Don't Die In Me Lyrics
| 18 years ago

the best metaphor in this song, for me, has got to be
"Now here's an apple with a tougher skin
While you've got your pretty scales and fins"
the first bit is like, how, since hes left shes grown up and got stronger, whilst the second bit eludes to how now he is single again aka. another fish in the sea..
or at least, thats what i think. |

i dont think this ones autobiographical.
samson is, i think.
this one she may have got from her own experiences, but the point is its a kick arse song with an upbeat tune... and a dark underbelly. |

I love the
"Live the dream
Live the dream
Live the dream like the 80's never happened
People are afraid, are afraid to merge on the freeway
Disappear here"
its modern britian, how our parents fought for equality and a safe place for our children to live... and we have ignored this, to just fuck it all up again. obviously great and SO true. |

| Bloc Party – Sunday Lyrics

|
its about love isnt it?? when its all stripped down and pure and private, and it feels like there's just you two people in the whole wide world... the line "I'll love you in the morning" is so heart-wrenching, and i cant fully explain. Its NOT like "I'll only love you in the morning" it's like "I'll still love you in the morning"... and if a love lasts one night, it lasts a whole lifetime. |

omg!! the oc...ARRGH. its a GREAT show, but just not worthy of this song....
it's the song that chronologues all of my relationships really. "I still feel you and the taste of cigarettes" reminds me of the person Im with now, and how that a certain smell or taste takes me back with them... also "just tell me its tearing you apart, just tell me you cannot sleep" Is beautiful.. wanting to be confided in, wanting that person to open up and trust you, but not really getting much. being so, so, so in love you'd do anything. |

to "mbthegreat" dont comment songs that are fab like that. whatever happened to if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it?? meanie.
its about having regrets. because everyone who says they dont is a liar. everyone regrets. and its about being trapped in a sort of blank modern existence.. with wantin to escape to simpilar times and a simpliar existence. "if i could do it again, i'd climb more trees, I'd pick and eat more wild blackberries" is one of the best lyrics on the album. its about wanting to escape, and regretting. its about modern britian, basically. |

this is the best Libertines song. the best line has to be "your like a journalist the way you can cut and paste and twist; your awful" its got to be about love... and the raw tradgedy of some love. love so hopeless and futile, and heartbreaking... and bitter resentment, and hate, but still love. which is what makes it so perfect, the fact he resigned himself to love her, and knows she loves someone else, and the fact he has failed. and how, at the end he doesnt really care what she does anymore, because he knows its hopeless. wonderful |

my fave bloc party song. it describes every guilty romance perfectly- you love someone too much to let them go, even tho they wear you down and drive you insane, you love them more than anything. perfect. |
