Boom Bip – The Matter Lyrics 18 years ago
this sounds like someone trying to convince themselves that they aren't tied down. the statements that she doesn't believe in the power of love, the wisdom or stone, a God, or the mind are her own attempts at talking herself out of becoming attached to someone, or explaining why she's leaving. the first 8 lines

"I know it makes you feel sad
Then you look at me that way
Your hands hold on the railing
As we glide across the bay

With everything uncertain
It's easy to defend
But we do not talk of feelings
And you know I can't pretend"
appear to be about her finally telling someone she's leaving them. she loves him/her, but she's a free spirit of sorts, and she can't pretend that she doesn't long for that non-tied down-ness.

"I listen to you breathing
Its steady and its slow
We lie close to the ceiling
I think of children in our home

But the quiet in the quarters
Stirs me from the thought
I might leave tommorow
To feel the joy of a new start"
this suggests that despite her obvious love of this person, and wanting a lasting relationship and a life with them, she then remembers she can still have a different life/experience. that appeals more to her.

"In the morning many seabirds
On the icy wind arive
Never crowding their companions
Against the blinding sky they dive"
this also eludes to her wanting to be free, not crowded as she goes through life, with or with out this person.

I'm not sure about that last part about missing the morning tide.

The Panic Channel – Bloody Mary Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about Marijuana. It really fits if you read the lyrics. Bloody Mary could be the drug itself or the seller. It adresses how dependent people become to the drug, and how the seller or the drug know the user will be back.

Copeland – You Have My Attention Lyrics 19 years ago
This song is about a boy letting a girl know that he sees her. That she has his attention. Maybe they were friends first, and he's now noticing that she wants to be more. She isn't straightforward about it, but he knows something's different about their relationship.

When it says "Speak but a whisper, I’ll hear a sermon" he's meaning that he sees the little hints she's putting out there. Maybe OVER-analyzing things?

"Just do your best to hear me, It’s all you can do. I’ll sing along, the whole night through" Mabye her only way of knowing he feels the same is to pick up on little clues because he too is not being straightforward about his feelings.

"Quiet now, your voice seems miles away, Yet somehow, I hear your song resound A little bit softer each day" Could it be that this is him telling her that he's noticing little by little that she's different in the way she acts around him? She's becoming someone else to him so the "old" her is fading away?
