| Alessia Cara – Here Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
This seems to be about being stuck in a limbo of one's own making. She is stuck at a party and, as some sort of display of loyalty, she stays, even though she despises everything going on around her. Apparently, her suitors are not viable paramours for her because she's so high and mighty. But in the end, she's the one sitting there all alone. I guess she got the last laugh.... indeed. At once, there is a conflict, but no real climax as she just sits, waiting for her friends, who are somewhere else, apparently detained or otherwise occupied. In the end, there doesn't appear to be any development for her or her situation. So, this song is essentially a long whine. |

| Lole y Manuel – Y Tu Mira Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| The word Apartame is actually Aguantarme, which translates to "I can't take it" or "I can't stand it." Otherwise, the translation is immaculate. Thank you. | |
| Frank Ocean – Pyramids Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| You're definitely onto something.... I like the archetypal imagery of her being bitten by the phallic asp, and how he just seems disillusioned with her now. It's about an old love he used to harbor for women, but how it has now faded into simple exploitation. | |
| Frank Ocean – Pyramids Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
This song seems to be about how his former "Queen", Cleopatra, has been ruined. She was his idol, but then he found her "laying down with Sampson." He says "The jewel of Africa What good is a jewel that ain't still precious?" And then his view of women has changed forever. Until now, his Cleopatra works at a strip club, he pimps her for money. He is unemployed and she pays his bills. She has sex with him, but she doesn't love him anymore, because he doesn't pay her. What a conundrum... |

| Midnight Juggernauts – Aurora Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Sorry Songmeaning1, but your interpretation is a stretch. This song seems to be about humanity hiding out from the destruction that has blasted the world. And it's happening ON EARTH. Oh Sun Shines its light On the streets again No alien planet is going to have the Sun shining on its streets, is it? Time stands still But years pass by This seems to be about a space ship contemplating the rise of mankind from the ashes of a once glorious society. Aliens have nothing to do with our destruction. At least, the lyrics don't seem to indicate it. Here we come Flags will fly again So we run Through the fires again But to what end will we again aspire? Destruction again? |

| Midnight Juggernauts – So Many Frequencies Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| The problem with this interpretation is that the song has two voices. The one that sings the regular stanzas and the one that sings the chorus. The chorus singer may not be human at all, but rather, a machine. It's tone is higher. Maybe a probe? | |
| Midnight Juggernauts – Nine Lives Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song is cryptic. If I apply the theme from the rest of the album--The end of the world--this doesn't clarify the meaning of this song for me. It could be that the speaker in this is actually a machine, a spaceship, that is headed on a crash course for the sun because it has ceased to communicate with earth. "I've carved my crash course straight through to hell I've broken bones, I've had my spells It fuels my cyclone heart so" And "This world don't mean a thing to me Without those songs you sing to me Those feline eyes are all I see It fuels my cyclone heart so" It seems like the spaceship is without meaning without code from earth. What trips me up is the mention of "feline eyes." Could it be some sort of eclipse? |

| Midnight Juggernauts – Tombstone Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I don't think Songmeaning1's interpretation is entirely correct. Drawing from the songs alone, it sounds like the album has to do with the destruction of mankind, but not necessarily by alien hands. The lyrics of this song are spoken as if through some technological vocoder, as if an advanced society came upon some object and couldn't tell what it was. They determine that it is a Tombstone. The end of human civilization. I fail to see where aliens have anything to do with this. They have not been mentioned in any of the songs on the album. |

| Midnight Juggernauts – Twenty Thousand Leagues Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song seems to be about someone in a space ship, possibly a satellite or space station. He seems to be trying to contact the people on earth, but there is no one. His days are spent trying to communicate with someone on earth. Watching over Dropped from above So far, so good Falling under Deep down below So far, so good This seems to suggest passage of time in his space capsule as the earth spins below. But all is well with him up above. Maybe this has something to do with God or a higher power? He is the alpha and the Omega, watching from above and it was good. |

| Midnight Juggernauts – Road To Recovery Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Quite a stretch there. The song says nothing about finding another home. In fact, the lyrics say otherwise: "Stars in the sky they will guide you back home Float as the night forms a path of its own Follow the lights they will guide you back home" How can stars in the sky guide you back home on an alien world? This song is about picking up the ashes of a destroyed civilization. It is full of hope. "Laugh as we run from the world we once knew Songs we once sung they will come back to you Wait for the sun as it comes into view" This seems to be about the clearing up of the sky from the "hell in the sky" from an earlier song. Maybe this is about nuclear destruction of the planet and how it will eventually recover and we will survive? |

| Midnight Juggernauts – Dystopia Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I don't think the album is about alien invasion so much as the end of the world. The Song "Shadows" may hold the answer, but I almost think the singer is talking about the Shadows in our own souls, rather than some invading force of aliens. But I could be wrong. | |

More Armageddon theme here. I especially like the line: It's the question that we left in the past |
|
| Midnight Juggernauts – Into The Galaxy Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| This is obviously a continuation of the Armageddon theme contained in other songs on the album. But who is G.L.O.R.I.A.? And why is her (or its) name spelled out? Does G.L.O.R.I.A. stand for something else? | |
| Midnight Juggernauts – Ending of an Era Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Just listening to this song and not knowing any background, it is obviously a song about the end of the world. The list of things they sing about are the common stuff of our day to day existence. Then come the sirens and "hell reigns above." It is a forecast for Armageddon. Whether the end is brought because of nuclear proliferation, alien invasion, or the return of Jesus Christ is not made clear. One thing is clear, that we see the end approaching because the narrator says toward the end: "the statement, the warning, the sirens, we set 'em off." | |
| The Notorious B.I.G. – Notorious B.I.G. Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Puff and Li'l Kim really detract from the quality of what would otherwise be another B.I.G. masterpiece. P. Diddy was never a good rapper, and Li'l Kim's delivery is looser than her old, beat up cooch. | |

| The Notorious B.I.G. – Dead Wrong Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is truly a masterpiece of rap. And Eminem's portion, though a bit jarring, is a severe intrusion on Biggie's flow that does not take away or in any way devolve the intensity of the song. If anything, it lends itself well to the theme, which seems to be about exploitation of those who are weak and an indictment of the self for perpetrating the vile acts. The chorus is deliberately ambiguous and seems to almost be asking a question, rather than making a statement. One is ultimately left with the question: are the weak or the strong more important to the speaker? For if we are to make the decision, he has already made up his mind that we are "dead wrong." | |

| Dark! | |
| The Bug – Poison Dart Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song seems to be about a woman who is manipulative and dangerous. Though, she doesn't believe in outright violence, because she doesn't carry a gun--it will get her in trouble. She is, however, a "poison dart" because of her intelligence, and boys and girls should not misconstrue her lack of weaponry as softness. | |
| Amy Winehouse – Back To Black Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Is this song about heroine addiction (black tar) caused by the emotional distress of a failed relationship? The video seems almost like an Opium dream sequence or something. Quite beautiful. | |
| Amy Winehouse – (There Is) No Greater Love Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| These lyrics are really amateurish for Amy Winehouse. But her voice more than makes up for the simplicity of this song. It's really one of the most beautiful songs on the entire Frank album. | |
| Amy Winehouse – You Sent Me Flying Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Sounds like she's got a crush on a younger man who doesn't really return her admiration. | |
