Tune-Yards – FIYA Lyrics 15 years ago
when a girl feels so alone
what a tease to throw a bone
should've just stayed at home
when a girl feels so alone

why'd you think i'd put out your fire?
why'd you think i'd put out your fire?
don't you know i breathe in fire?
breathe out fire?

what if my own skin makes my skin crawl?
what if my own flesh is suburban sprawl?
what happened between us makes sense if i'm nothing
you are all
if i am nothing at all

why'd you think i'd put out your fire?
why'd you think i'd put out your fire?
don't you know i breathe in fire?
breathe out fire?

you are always on my mind (x4)

they are dying outside, they are dying outside and you lied

i am not beautiful
i am not beautiful
i am in bloom as the world goes underground
and i am not beautiful
and i am not magic yet
but i am in bloom at the end of the world

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy – What's Missing Lyrics 17 years ago
could be, but im pretty sure its "under sail". as the expressions to 'pull the anchor' or to 'set sail' mean to start something (not necessarily a journey on a boat), 'under sail' means to be in motion.

Modest Mouse – Little Motel Lyrics 19 years ago
it is definitely a breakup song... but i dont think they are waiting for love or death, well maybe death, but not literal death-- death of a relationship. i think they are both waiting to forget. i see this in the very firrst verse:
"I hope that you like it in your little motel
and I hope that the suite sleeps and suits you well
well I can see it as time and a sight through smell and
thats why its nice to be by yourself"
specifically the last line, so they are waiting for it to be nice to be without the other. you know that shitty feeling after a breakup, where you know that it just wont work, even though you want it to? and you just have to wait it out til you can forget about them/ happy to be with out them? thats what i think this song is about.
in the last verse he says:
"before we had made a wish
that we would be missed
If one another just did not exist"
they are both wishing that the other didnt exist, but at the same time they want the other to miss them when they arent together, cuz you feel better if you know that they miss you as much as yuo miss them.

cool song, but i still think the greatest break up song ever is she ionizes and atomizes

Modest Mouse – We've Got Everything Lyrics 19 years ago
i think he is being extremely sarcastic, saying that we have an explanation for everything, know how everything works, how the world turns etc etc. so he is saying that since we "know everything" there is nothing left to learn so we might as well push our car into the sea or pass out drunk in a car.... i see this as a very sarcastic song saying basically, yeah well, "science is shit". (props to tenserock on the quote)

i also think its a statement to the fans claiming they "sold out". great way to kick off a phenomonal album

Modest Mouse – People as Places as People Lyrics 19 years ago
definitely my fav song on the new album (which kicks ass by the way)... i cant find anything in the song relating it to a romantic break-up, i see it more of a searching for a sense of self, which goes along with his restlessness. perhaps you could link it to a breakup, but there is a much larger theme here. i hate to say that its just another soul-searching song for issac, because its not-- this song is different, brock is a changed man, he hints that he has found himself in the last line.
