Fucked Up – Inivisible Leader Lyrics 15 years ago
"Take the pick and drive it into the soil,
Dig without hands until we find the oil,
Marching forward faith obscures what's wrong,
For at the end of the day the lamb and the goat are still fused as one."

Lamb of god, and the goat, symbol of satan?

Fucked Up – David Comes To Life Lyrics 15 years ago
To me, this seems like a song about taking drugs as a shortcut to a higher conscience. It makes sense, Damian Abraham is straight edge as far as I know.

Fucked Up – Black Albino Bones Lyrics 15 years ago
Black albinos are hunted by other africans for their purported magical properties. Which, of course, is bogus. The singer is straight edge, so I guess the lyrics are about chasing "fake highs".

Compare the song to David Comes To Life, which could be interpreted as a story about a man who uses drugs as a shortcut to a higher conscience.

Fucked Up – I Hate Summer Lyrics 15 years ago
"The DSM-IV notes SADs as “specifiers”, seasonal patterns that can occur within major depressive or bipolar disorders. Sufferers of summer SAD may experience some or all of the following symptoms during the spring and summer months:

Depression, feelings of hopelessness
Loss of interest and/or enjoyment in activities
Anxiety
Insomnia
Feelings of irritability
Feelings of agitation
Poor appetite
Weight loss
Increased sex drive
Suicidal thoughts and feelings"


Not everyone loves the summer.
Me, I have a hard time trying to adjust, to me summer is usually 50% anxiety, 50% exhilaration.
But, overall, I'm rather scared than bored. Bring summer on!

Totally awesome song though.

Animal Collective – Lion in a Coma Lyrics 17 years ago
I agree with the idea that it could be about bipolar disorder, some lines could describe the alternating racing thoughts and "empty mind" that bipolars can suffer, and some lines could be interpreted as description of the ways one copes with the disease, it's ups and downs. Some parts could deal with being in a band, and what to dedicate oneself to.

I love the chorus, "this wilderness that's up in my head, this wilderness needs to get right out of my clothes and get into my bedroom!". When too much is going on, it's hard to get to sleep, but oh man sleeping is soo goood.

Frank Black – Pie In The Sky Lyrics 17 years ago
Eight minutes, isn't that the time it takes for the light from the sun to travel to earth? four years, maybe our closest other star is four light years away?

Peeerhaps, song is about us being really far from everything else in the universe.

The Jesus and Mary Chain – Never Understand Lyrics 18 years ago
"The sun comes up another day begins
And I don't even worry about the state I'm in
Head so heavy and I'm looking thin
But when the sun goes down I wanna start again"


I hate to say this cliché, but it seems to be about drugs or some other kind of self-abusive behavior.

of Montreal – Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse Lyrics 18 years ago
Chemicals, don't strangle my pen
Chemicals, don't make me sick again

Chemicals, don't flatten my mind
Chemicals, don't mess me up this time

SSRI's, I.E. antidepressants, can make you less anxious, but sometimes at the cost of things like inspiration, imagination, intiative...

Håkan Hellström – Känn Ingen Sorg För Mig Göteborg Lyrics 18 years ago
Kom förresten tänka på att arsenik i små doser är uppiggande, här lite info saxat från http://erik.progressivit.se/arsenik.htm

"'Makoria' och olika dialektala varianter var i gamla tider en folklig benämning på arsenik. Det kommer naturligtvis av mercurium, en mera etablerad benämning, som dock också använts för kvicksilveroxid, ett ämne som knappast förekom i det gamla bondesamhället. Frans G Bengtsson skriver att ännu några generationer tillbaka torde fattighusen ha gått miste om mycket folk genom att yngre anförvanter satte sin lit till 'makoria' - 'vitt i kaffet' - så länge detta utan besvär stod att få av förste bäste gårdfarihandlare. Det har sagts att det funnits gammalt folk som knappt vågade äta - de mindes hur de själva gjort en gång. Att knallarna marknadsförde arsenik lär ha berott på att det gavs till hästar för att få dem att se feta, blanka och livliga ut."

Håkan Hellström – Känn Ingen Sorg För Mig Göteborg Lyrics 18 years ago
Uppe på fem, kan det inte bara vara så att han menar en uppräkning, han blev pigg igen på fem sekunder?

Teorin kring femmanhuset tror jag inte en sekund på.

Vem/vad singoalla är vill jag också gärna veta.
