| Seabound – Hooked Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"never been so close to an earthquake" scared for my life or really angry, or confused "rain is sweeter than the spring water fountain" there are still good things in life because water is refreshing :) "If I ever find a way I'll claim another life" i want to restart life as a different person, choose a different path in life, the road not taken "If I ever find a way I'll halt the turn of time" i want to freeze time to treasure every moment and learn everything there is to learn and be able to understand every person's situations, feelings, and motives. |

| Diary of Dreams – Stimulation Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I love this song. My favorite line is "Bodies simply gliding" because it's so ghostly, haunting, and abstract at the same time. If you combine this with the previous line - "Lunatics find no conclusion", we see the lunatics are gliding - things may seem to make sense to them until their fractured reasoning results in them crashing into a logical barrier - a contradiction - the conclusion. "Fingertips touch so many bodies Motionless accepted Lips regret so many kisses Whispered words just as well" Not sure what this is about, perhaps some perverted hypothetical relationship in which he is accepted and understood. He doesn't want the relationship to exit the hypothetical and enter reality because he fears he will just regret it because a real person wouldn't understand him. "Mistaken seem my careful moves Misunderstood my choice of words Psycho-logically seen I prefer this kind of stimulation" Depressingly, normal interaction results in misunderstandings and confusion, so he wants communicate on a higher level - perhaps where thoughts, states of mind, and intentions are observed directly, so he can make sure others understand him. |

This is one of my favorite songs by this artist. "I called you sinners I was wrong" The song starts by provoking the horrible emotion you get when you insult or blame others for things they didn't do. "Inaccurate intention Should have said you're sorry Might have reduced the conflict" When trying to figure out what another person is trying to say, I often tend to only consider what they mean literally, or else I get lost in a web of analogies and references and misinterpret what they're trying to mean. Sometimes people misinterpret what I say because they apply some idiom to my words that I'm not familiar with. "God's creation To put your blame on God's creation To turn away from" The chorus means different things depending on how I feel. When I am angry, the music provide a fun rush of emotion. When I'm upset and just want to find someone else to blame, the lyrics in the chorus lets me have an excuse to blame a creator and makes me feel like a burden has been removed, lifting my spirit. When I'm happy I don't feel like I need a creator, so I want to turn away from him. "Respect instead of affection Disclaim that I am one of you" Most of the time I just don't want to be a part of any group of people because I usually can't stand being around most people. "Can I fall down from the stars? Can I rise up from hell?" These lines provide imagery of falling downward though the night sky and "falling" upward from fires/deepness, at the same time, which is really weird and cool. As for meaning, I see the "stars" as abstractions, fantasies, associations, make believe, etc, because, like stars, these things can be beautiful, interesting, timeless, stationary, compared to the real world, but often are of little use in doing work or solving everyday problems. The speaker wants to "fall down from the stars," meaning he wants to find his way back to reality or wake up from the daydream. And to me "hell" in this case means the burden of everyday life - work, cleaning, etc. It also gives me a mental image of fire which is like the changing, undefinable, randomness of everyday life - impossible to work with, calculate, or understand. Unlike stars, fire is temporary - gone before you know it. The speaker wants to "rise up from hell" meaning he wants to rise above hell-ish boring menial labor of only learning the technical or specific things of the world that will become obsolete and do more important things with his life, and learn concepts and values that will be true for all of time. |
