| Anberlin – (*Fin) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i lovee this song so much.. its been a long time sense i've found a song that can draw me in like Fin does and can remain so captivating for practically 9 minutes. Just mindblowing! I love everyone's views on this song but i think it also has another satirical meaning everyone's missing... The first part of the song: "Tommy you're left behind Something you'll mean everything right before you die But if you gain the world You've already lost four little souls from your life Widows and orphans aren't hard to find Their home is in daddy who's saving you random tonight Where's your drink? And would hurry and kill you Sympathy's better than having to tell you the truth" I think this part is about an alchoholic who has lost everyone / thing in his life and just wants it to end.. therefore consuming his grief through his drink wish it would kill him because even if he was to rise above his problems his love ones are already gone.... (or something to that extent.. i also get a slight feeling that the loss of "four little souls" could be 1) from a court order. he lost his children because of his drinking addiction or 2) his drinking somehow caused the death of them. dunno, i'm kind of bad a interpretting lyrics =/) then there is this part that really stands out: "Billy, don't you understand? Timothy stood as long as he could and now You made his faith disappear More like a magician And less like a man of the cloth We're not questioning God Just those he chose to carry on his cross We'll grow better, you'll see Just all of us, the lost causes" I believe this part is dealing with the ongoing struggle with homosexuality. These two men are struggling with their own personal love, faith, and trust in each other. It seems to me as if they are trying to keep their beliefs in God alive, but find that hard because the members of the church or the ones Jesus has taken in for salvation by the wording of the lyrics are all against their love.. I'm not quite sure if Anberlin is trying to make suicide a factor here, but it is obvious that the couple stopped their relationship together. well, at least, those are my thoughts :) |

"this song is obviously about akon being a femminest and how he believes women are more than just objects to be looked at, used, and thrown out in the gutter...not. " rightly said, i don't understand how some people can listen to this music x_x |

| Don't Look Down – Can You Hear Me? Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is amazing, and is my number one played song on my ipod. For me, the song is about a person trapped in the norm and the ongoing cycle of everyday life. This person goes on living unnoticed by the people who once meant the world to him or her. The lyrics as a whole are pretty selfexplanitory, but still.. i've lost track of the amount of times i've wanted to shout "can you hear me?" outloud to the people i thought meant everything to me. Hah, "Just a face in the crowd" seems to describe the way I feel perfectly. I mean, surely I'm not the only one who can go to school put on this huge happy act to please "the friends" and every desperate sign of help thats thrown out to them is casted away without second thought? I don't know, bad day sorry for that tangent but sadly i'm sure other people can relate to the emotional ignorance of others. |
