Circa Survive – We're All Thieves Lyrics 18 years ago
I might as well explain what this song means to me.


To Me, its about a person laying in bed awaiting there lover to return home from out with another lover.


This is assuming the line is "I wake, just to feel the weight" -- meaning shes crawling back into bed with him.


"Your face is light and cocaine white one message beating through" -- thats her face when she is trying to tell him what she has been doing...her message being the one where she admits to fucking around.


""smoke's filled the air and i'm struggling to breathe
let them be calm so i finally can sleep everything you intended to say
don't go back on your words
you always said you'd tell me first"


the "smoke" is the words out of her mouth. It makes it hard for him to breathe learning his wife/significant other is fucking someone else. The line you always said you'd tell me first is in reference to being honest with one another and being a partnership.


The ending supports this theory as well.


Thoughts?

Circa Survive – On Letting Go Lyrics 18 years ago
Hmm. Thats not at all how I follow this song. Ready?


This song is about realizing god doesnt exist. Its not about the new testiment, unless it is by saying its not true. Lemme explain.


"For your futures sake...I've got some advice i'd advise you to take...dont keep betting well its gotta light me up sometime" --- that is refering to religion. You cant keep betting that its going to make you a better person or something by you attending. You lost your turn.

"All I wanted to be was one of your children" one of the biggest give aways...because even though he realizes god doesn't exist he always wanted him to...he wanted to believe he would be one of his children...but he has come to terms with the fact that he cannot be a child to a unexisting father.


Some other lines to support my theory.


"Wash Off Your Handcuffs" Reference to religion/beliving in god. Being "tied down" to the religion.


"Know the hidden messages you hear, they arent real, you tricked you mind to feel" --- BEST LINE EVER. That is in part the reason I myself am not religious. here they explain to you that "faith" is nothing more then you tricking your mind to feel something that isnt there. So you have purpose to your life. BRILLIANT LINE.




"We are unrelated" -- meaning we are not gods children. Since god says we're all related, we're all from adam and eve.
