Animal Collective – Winter Wonder Land Lyrics	17 years ago
I think at the end: "Then don't believe you're dying." is really "I won't tell you that you're dying."

The Clientele – Since K Got Over Me Lyrics	17 years ago
I always thought this song was about Ketamine and depression too. It can totally mean more than that, but I think there's where it comes from.

Belle & Sebastian – The State I Am In Lyrics	17 years ago
This is my favorite Belle and Sebastian song. I love all they've done, but this early song just hits me like no other song ever has.

Elliott Smith – Alameda Lyrics	17 years ago
I love how he references his other songs in his writing. Such as "the fix is in" from his old band Heatmiser.

Elliott Smith – Pictures of Me Lyrics

17 years ago

To me, this songs about continuing to do drugs in hopes that it's gonna help, but it really doesn't. "I'm not surprised at all and really, why should I be? See nothing wrong" represents to me the feeling of even though he knows he should quit the drugs, he still does them and after a while doesn't even think about the fact that he continues to use and justifies it anyway, even though deep down he know that it doesn't help. Such a true song that hits me every time I hear it.
