| James Blunt – Goodbye My Lover Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| although, i'm rather late on the responses...i'd have to say that this song is definitely about a lover passing away. i listened to this song almost everyday after my bestfriend/ex-boyfriend passed and it made perfect sense to me. it's strange to see what this song means to everyone else. i've felt every single emotion of this song. i hope no one else ever has to. | |
| Damien Rice – Cannonball Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| this song was played at my best friend austin's funeral. if you look at it in that sense, it works that way too. just a different twist to the love/affair theories. | |
| Dashboard Confessional – Dusk and Summer Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I've read the theory about this song being about death. I'm not totally disregarding that but I saw it as something else. I see it as this innocent boy that finds himself falling for a girl that has way more life expierience than he does. Excess baggage, if you will. She's been hurt and that's why she's cynical with the "no one here can live together, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer". I didn't take that so literal as to actually meaning being alive but more as that summer, like every season, is temporary. She couldn't commit and although they had their good times...he knew it couldn't never work or last. Chris is so talented and even his simple lyrics have a huge impact on me. This was me and my ex-boyfriend's song so it's interesting to read everyone's take on it. |
