The White Stripes – The Denial Twist Lyrics 18 years ago
and i think a lot of the song is about being strong in a relationship. don't vicitimize yourself or be weak, cause you have just as much control as the other person does and if you exercise that control then it will minimize the problems the other person is causing in the relationship.

The White Stripes – The Denial Twist Lyrics 18 years ago
i think the first verse is about how theres something more behind an action, like a kiss and dancing and holding hands isn't just physical, theres supposed to be feeling behind it.

Neil Young – The Painter Lyrics 18 years ago
i think its about a painter who put a lot of time and focus into her work. and its saying that life is long and of course you're going to have lots of dreams and interests but in order to actually make a dream come true and be successful and happy you have to focus. not like its bad to be a dreamer, its kinda saying that everyone is a dreamer, you just have to focus and follow a dream so you don't get lost and confused.
does that make sense?

Tal Bachman – If You Sleep Lyrics 18 years ago
yeah, I think the same thing. "gleaming cars, covered faces, teary eyes, hallowed places (the grave), grass and granite stone" = perfect imagery of a funeral.
a great person that you love is dying, and youre in the hospital (disinfected rooms and hallways) worrying and worrying as the person lays on their death bed, and you don't want them to die ("won't let the fates succeed"). "whispered bits of conversation, unaffected orderlies"- basically your alone in the hospital worrying and the only interaction you have with others are the short talks w the doctor and the people that work at the hospital who aren't upset like you are cause theyre around dying people all the time and this person isnt any more important than the others.
the chorus is saying that if you die you will at at peace, so I'm not crying for you, I'm crying for myself because Ive lost you, but if youre at peace then i will be at peace too.
and "why should I hope to make it through? Cause if you sleep, Ill sleep too" could kinda mean two different things:
he's either asking himself why he should have any hope at all, and then answering: because if you're at peace after death then I will be ok.
or
he's saying he shouldn't even hope to make it through this awful process cause if she dies then he will die.

Regina Spektor – Samson Lyrics 18 years ago
i think this is about a past relationship and him having long hair when they met and she cut it means that he was a certain person when they started their relationship and throughout the relationship he changed, because of her and the relationship itself. and the "dull scissors" i think represents it being a long relationship and not a sudden change because cutting hair with dull scissors would take a long time. also, i think him eating a slice of wonderbread shows that hes a simple guy.
