This is easily one of the saddest songs I've ever heard. My favorite by Sparta. |

| Minus the Bear – Electric Rainbow Lyrics

This is probably my favorite MTB song behind Houston. Why this was not on PoI, I don't know, but it makes me want to kick their record label. Think how good of a single that this COULD be, but I'm glad it'll stay in obscurity. |

All I know is that this song sounds like it could've been a Deloused b-side, which is fine with me. 3:28 and onwards until the chorus is one of the most amazing things my ears have ever heard. |

The live jam they do on this song is phenomenal. Anyway, probably my favorite song off the album. |

| The Mars Volta – Metatron Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
|
Metatron means "lesser Tetragrammaton", just for a little bit of backstory. Other than that, the second prechorus ('In the dead plot you dream in...') is one of the most powerfully performed moments in any song if you ask me. |

| Shai Hulud – Given Flight by Demon's Wings Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
"I am prepared to fight humanity every day
For the rest of my life"
The whole song gives me chills, but that line makes me shiver. I sense a bit of optimism in this song, as the writer continues to struggle to live his life even amongst the negative feedback of others. A truly uplifting song for me. |

| At the Drive-In – Cosmonaut Lyrics

|
What the HELL is Jim screaming in the second chorus? People tell me it's "engage" but I think he's yelling "you're gay" or something else. Hard to figure out. |

what the fuck? how does this song have no comments?
behind decoys like curves, this is my favorite hopesfall song. the build up to the end of this song gives me chills every time (in bending down to the world, lived it all and the earth will follow through) |

This song makes me so very sad, but it's written so beautifully. The harmonies are perfect. Everything a Minus song should be. Probably my favorite on the album behind This Ain't A Surfin Movie. |

the bridge of this song is one of the trippiest things minus has written to date. i always feel like i'm floating outside of my head when it comes on, aha. |

The tapping section in this song is incredible, even though it's probably the simplest part of the whole song. Best song on Manipulator. |

plain and simple; the story of the world of drugs you get entered into as a musician and the choice of abusing them. |

I hated everything Saddle Creek ever put out until I heard the second half of this song. I haven't heard lyrics capture a moment like that in so long. Bravo, Tim Kasher. |

| Sparta – La Cerca Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
Sparta's most underrated song. Incredible live, the lyrics are incredibly written; a lot of great lines. "I want to be welcomed not just tolerated"
But the last lines of the song makes me think that the song is about not letting social norms or other such invisible barriers keep you from achieving what you want. |

I had no idea if I was seeing the same band or not when Erak played this last show I saw them at. Very different and a very good sound, I like this song. |

| As Tall as Lions – Ghost of York Lyrics

Incredible song. I think it's definitely about losing the one you love that's passed away and you swear you continue to see them around because your life was so attached to theirs. |

this is my favorite song of all time. no other song has captured having to seperate from someone so closely. where you have to drive around in the same town you fell in love with them in without them and remember that they're not with you, and how you can't exist in the same place without them. |
