Amanda Palmer – Slide Lyrics | 13 years ago |
These are the lyrics from the version I have. My version is the same as the lyrics from the site. slide a late april day and it's sunny outside and a red little girl's at the top of a slide and an an orange old man at the bottom wants to take her for a ride as she slips and she tumbles the orange man mumbles pennies crash down from the sky and he tells her he'll take her away where it's safe and of course it is a lie she's a third the down and her skirts are yanked up and her little girl cheeks start to wrinkle but her smile is wide and her legs are spread wider her hair growing long and her hips getting larger past getting brighter light growing weaker.... she is halfway down now but the man is impatient shakes change in his pocket he might have to wait but she's coming... she's coming... who are you blaming? they're just playing! that's a good one... who left the playground a good decade before the bell rang? as she starts to draw nearer the view becomes clearer the splinters are painful but she doesn't feel it the pennies were loaded and as they exploded she starts to spin out of control... her eyes are now closing her sleeves are unrolling up past her head and her veins are all showing not that she noticed she's thoroughly focused on one old man who's laughing... who's laughing.... dont' worry i've got you don't worry i've got you the orangeman got you..... |
The Dresden Dolls – The Kill Lyrics | 14 years ago |
The beginning kinda sounds like its about george washington. |
Emilie Autumn – 306 Lyrics | 16 years ago |
to me, it sounds more like she was forced to kill herself, by way of other people doing it, and wanting her to. maybe the thing about the cult that most of you are talking about is it. |
Emilie Autumn – Castle Down Lyrics | 16 years ago |
it sounds like a girl who was verbally/emotionally abused. or was in a relationship with a very possessive guy. |
Emilie Autumn – Gothic Lolita Lyrics | 16 years ago |
emotional murder... not being able to love because you were traumatized... i'm lucky enough to lock it up in my mind so i can love. |
Emilie Autumn – 4 o'Clock Lyrics | 16 years ago |

Evanescence – Hello Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I just read what Amy said it was about. Her sister's death. |
Evanescence – Hello Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I really love this song, its one of my favorites. It seems like the person's childhood friend has died, and they dont want to believe it at first. |
The Dresden Dolls – Glass Slipper Lyrics | 17 years ago |
chivalry is dead. violence means i love you. any attention she'll settle for. sounds like she's either a stripper or hooker or prostitute. but then there comes the part where she's talking about being a living statue so im confused "other girls shower but i give out flowers to curious strangers who throw dollars at my feet" |
The Dresden Dolls – A Night at the Roses Lyrics | 17 years ago |
i think its about a friend of her's who isnt very good but she hasnt the guts to tell them that, but wants too. "you should back out now not a night too soon i’ll still be here when the last poor soul has left the room standing round just like a good friend should smiling as if your songs were good" |
The Dresden Dolls – My Alcoholic Friends Lyrics | 17 years ago |
O.o just noticed most of the ads on the page offer to help with alcoholism. how strange.... And apparently it seems she is an alcoholic and wants to stop, but the bottle's just too enticing... |
The Dresden Dolls – My Alcoholic Friends Lyrics | 17 years ago |
I think this song is talking about she's an alcoholic (duh) and her alcoholic friends are her bottles. I've heard someone describe them that way once. But I might be mistaken. |
