| Keane – Can't Stop Now Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
To me, this song is an embodiment of some of my thoughts lately. At the minute, I'm living in the same town, same house, that I always have done, around the same sort of people from the last few years. Recently I took a trip to a university for an open day and it's not becoming more apparent that the people and places I know and love here won't be with me every second until the end of everything. Maybe I won't lose contact so much with some more than others, but really it's unrealistic to say that I'll be around them forever, a potentially heartbreaking realisation. Even with this realisation though, I can't slow down for anyone if I'm to go on to be who I want to be. This is what this means to me today. |

I've been listening to this song a lot lately and I decided to try and work out the meaning; I never thought I'd die alone [He's realising that nobody really cared for him, or at least thinks it] I laughed the loudest who'd have known? [Not sure about this line, it might be about him laughing at either himself, or rejection by his peers.] I traced the cord back to the wall No wonder it was never plugged in at all [Despite having methods of contact available, there was no way people would use them to get to him] I took my time, I hurried up The choice was mine I didn't think enough [Related to Nirvana's 'Come as You Are'. Not so sure about this line.] I'm too depressed to go on You'll be sorry when I'm gone [People neglecting him so much makes him just want to die, and all the people will regret the neglecting, because he will have killed himself because of them.] I never conquered, rarely came [Vulgar as it is, I think it might mean came as in cum, as the person it was written about described himself as a nerd and a geek.] 16 just held such better days Days when I still felt alive [As things go, when we get older, it feels less and less like life when people treat you like shit.] We couldn't wait to get outside The world was wide, too late to try The tour was over, We'd survived I couldnt wait til I got home To pass the time in my room alone [The excitement of growing up, but then in the end, he just wants to be alone in his room, away from the world who ignores him.] I never thought I'd die alone Another six months I'll be unknown [Saying how when he's killed himself and he initial disaster has passed, nobody will remember him.] Give all my things to my friends You'll never set foot in my room again You'll close it off, board it up [Talking to his parents about giving away all his things. Not much more analysis I can make here.] Remember the time I spilled the cup Of apple juice in the hall Please tell mom this is not her fault [The only thing I can think of here, is that it's not his mum's fault that he's going to kill himself.] I never conquered, rarely came 16 just held such better days Days when I still felt alive We couldn't wait to get outside The world was wide, too late to try The tour was over, We'd survived I couldnt wait til I got home To pass the time in my room alone [Same chorus as last time.] I never conquered, rarely came Tomorrow just holds such better days [This line makes me think that he's saying the days after his death will be the better ones for him, because he won't have all of the world that he hates there.] Days when I can still feel alive When I cant wait to get outside [After he's gone, he won't have the world to make him even more dead (not literally speaking, as he's going to kill himself, but while he's still got a bit of his feeling alive left, he's going to end his life) so he's going to 'get outside' of existence and life.] The world is wide, the time goes by [Saying that time just goes on, in his hell.] The tour is over, I survived I can't wait 'til I get home To pass the time in my room alone [Although the real person killed himself in the family garage, passing the time in his room alone could refer to him killing himself, or just staying in his room away from everyone.] Again, this is just my take on it. |

Wrathful I'm hacking the organs are minched Minching the flesh of the stiff Imagine the body parts when served on a plate. Prepared by sick culinary... |

| Feeder – Frequency Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think this song's about their old drummer Jon. The love being philial way. "You've got to know I think about you every day You're lying awake on top of sivler clouds Sending love back down" It's hard not to think about a loved one who has died, especially of suicide. Might be wrong but that's what I think. |

| Feeder – Bitter Glass Lyrics | 18 years ago |

This is obviously wrong, but I can interpret it as a two-sided song about being cheated on and left. "Apologies of past" being the cheater apologizing for their wrong. The chorus, from the point of view of the other half - feeling as if life is over and not worth living. "The thought of never knowing Would kill me just the same A solitary blossom Reminders of a friend" Never knowing that they had cheated would be horrible. Reminders of a friend implying that they don't talk anymore. "Your voluntary loving" Voluntary things can often be given up somewhere down the line. I.e. when something better comes along. That's just my spin on it from when it happened to me. |

| Necrophagist – Foul Body Autopsy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The line "strewn with papillae and pores" is so hard to get right. My band are covering this song some time soon. I'm playing drums and doing verse 2 vocals. Also helping out on the chorus vocals. Gonna be fuckin' sweet. Meaning-wise, I think it's about pretending to be a pathologist as suggested before. Amazing song. | |
| Necrophagist – To Breathe In A Casket Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I think this is something to do with someone wakingup inside a coffin, trying to get out. I think it has something to do with a ang he may have pissed off. Fuck knows | |
| Nevermore – Evolution 169 Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| the number 169 used to appear so commonly in my life. I only just heard this song the other day and in a way I can relate to it. I think it's like Exertus' idea. Bloody amazing song. | |
| CKY – Chinese Freestyle Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I think this song's about a Chinese person who owns a restaurant. | |
| R.E.M. – The Wrong Child Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Continuing the idea of a disabled child or even adult, "Tell me what it's like to go outside, I've never been" could be about never being able to just walk around on his own 2 legs and play with the other children and they stare at him but he's happy with how he is. | |
| R.E.M. – The Outsiders Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| All the people that categorize people and put them in boxes or groups and exclude them from what they want to be a reality eventually have an army of people waiting to bring them down fro their injustice. "I am not afraid" perhaps not being afraid to stand up to the ignorant stereotyping bastards | |
| R.E.M. – It's the End of the World as We Know It Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| "It's time I had some time alone" makes me think of a break-up. At the same time I think it's just about the world progressing, technologically, medically and just in general and how there's the possibility that we'll end up destroying ourselves. Don't really know though lol. | |

| It's about someone experiencing panic attacks. I had one recently and this just sums it up. Amazing song. | |

| Slipknot – People = Shit Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Just take a look around. Cars, roads, buildings, fires, killing, slavery, rape, sexism, racism, hatred, nuclear weapons, blah blah. We are all shit and there's no way to escape being shit. | |

| If I concentrate on this like 100% I can sort of trip without drug use lol. This song is INCREDIBLE! | |
| R.E.M. – World Leader Pretend Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I listen to this song when I feel like hating myself. Like after a break-up I'll put this song on cos I think about how much of a dick I've made myself then I'm usually ok. Amazing song though, has deep meaning to me. | |
