| Handsome Furs – Sing! Captain Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Plague Park (album this is from) is about the experience of living in the city and the country (big and little places) and how both can be kind of alienating. This song kind of melts those two places together and at the end tries to escape through the figure of the seacaptain, but it aint happening obviously. Also, I think it goes "Sing captain / Sing out loud / Sing, but we're earthbound / Sing captian / Sing out loud / Sing captain / Earthbound |

| Arcade Fire – In the Backseat Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| it's like that though, isn't it? when you're a kid in the backseat you simultaneously feel this comforting sense of security and belonging, but as you watch the wind push the raindrops back past the windscreen and the lights flash past, you come to realise the passing of time. and with that you realise that time brings both maturity for you, and takes away your closest. | |
