JamisonParker – Dead To The World Lyrics 19 years ago
i really love the part where they say

"I hate hate the way you look at me
where's the pills for that thing that you call
"sweepin' me off my feet"
it's girls like you that keep open graves
for boys like me
that keep themselves locked up for days."

I get the impression that this song is about a breakup that basically left him "dead to the world", because he's locked up in his room thinking about what could have/should have been.

Lorene Drive – So Easy Lyrics 19 years ago
"And the things to make you go away" ---> "anything to make you go away"

"what used to be so easy" ---> "it used to be so easy"

"All the time and time again" ---> "all over, time and time again"


Great song, great power, great energy.

Underoath – I'm Content With Losing Lyrics 19 years ago
A few corrections...

Like I said
Leave your baggage at the back door
I'm leaving you
The way I think it should be
We're always
Pulling into spaces that we can't back out of
Starting fights
We can't talk our way out of them

How does it feel to be on the receiving end of this one?

I'm half way there and it's all on me
This is what I get for wanting more
This is the way it has to be
Dancing on all these changes
So I'll walk around with this rope in my hands
So I'll tie it around and around
I'll tie me down

I'll fantasize of being manic
And leaving us behind
In your eyes
You were the one that tried

Acceptance is what holds us dear
And you my dear are the one I fear tonight
We'll try just one more time

This is the moment that we all live for
Are you ready? Are you ready?

I'm half way there and it's all on me,
This is what I get for wanting more, for wanting more.
Is this the way its got to be,
Dancing on all these changes
So I walk around with this rope in my hand, rope in my hand
So I'll tie it around, and around, and around,
I'll tie me down

You can't see past my waving hands,
Just running away again
You can't see past my waving hands...


You think so loud it hurts my ears
I want to know how to get through this
Without choking
I can't feel you
You're too far from me

I'm half way there and it's all on me .



Amazing song. That's all I can say.

The Number Twelve Looks Like You – My Sharona (The Knack cover) Lyrics 19 years ago
This song makes me want to get up and dance like a madman.
I especially love the part when they say,
"Never gonna stop, give it up.
Such a dirty mind. I always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind."
Its effing redonkulous in the best way possible. LOVE this cover.

Regina Spektor – Samson Lyrics 19 years ago
I agree with mcm527 and xx-georgina-xx.
When I first heard this song, I thought it was about a man who developped cancer after they first met, hence the "your hair was long when we first met".

"Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the bible didnt mention us
The bible didnt mention us, not even once."

This tells me that at some point get was diagnosed with cancer, lost his hair because of treatment, etc etc., yet he still managed to enjoy the simple things in life (the line "he ate a slice of wonderbread" makes me think that) .
Perhaps the verse about how he came to her bed and told her that she was beautiful and her hair was red means he was glad he could go through the pain of dealing with cancer instead of her. The bit about how the history books and bible didn't mention them could mean that she believes that there are so many tragic stories like hers that never get put out there, that never get heard. But if you ask me, this song did JUST that. :]
Beautiful song. Moved me to tears.
