| Alkaline Trio – Sleepyhead Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| It honestly sounds like somebody going through heroin withdrawal, maybe someone he was seeing/dating? People I knew who have had heroin problems mention lack of sex drive, this song has undertones of sex (bedroom eyes) so maybe he's talking about somebody he had dated that went through heroin withdrawal and got their sex drive back, meaning they were getting passed the "sickness" that comes with withdrawal. Just my take. But I have no doubts its about drugs. | |
| Joyce Manor – Constant Headache Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
I highly doubt this was the intention but I couldn't help thinking of it this way. What if the lyrics we're meant to be taken from the point of view of a pet, like a pet dog specifically? It sounds silly but the whole first verse could relate to a dog's owners coming home from the bar being noisy so he/she hides behind the couch, like animals do. And the title "Constant Headache" may even refer to a dog who just seems to be in everybody's way, an annoyance maybe, but to sleep and have the owners praise the pet anyway.."you said such nice things about me, I felt guilty and cheap." Also, most noticeably, "your love was foreign to me (human love/interaction), it made me think maybe human's not such a bad thing to be." Again, the lyrical content is most likely not anything close but it does make sense and definitely a fun way to look at it. |

| Alkaline Trio – I'm Dying Tomorrow Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| It couldnt be about suicide. People dont commit suicide that often if their life has been good up until then. By saying "did I do it right?" means what someone said earlier...if he died tomorrow, he wanted to know if he lived his life right up until then. | |
