| Soundgarden – Black Rain Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
If I could, Hawk my love Could I trade, For your wings To cover me, Unless I fall Half alive, I heard the most Brilliant lie, Sleep is eyes Closed to light, Deaths the mind Wide open... You can't stutter When you're talking with your eyes Like cutting out your tongue to save face Or feeding on the blood That's running from a black rain Cry on Black Rain If I could, Hawk my love Could I trade For your wings To cover me, Unless I fall Sleep is eyes, Closed to light Death's the mind, Wide open. Directly from the Box Set Lyric sheet... |

great lyrics. regarding the stacks of magazines... "Magazine stacks and broken backs Are what you get for piling stacks Beneath your treasure chest You wonder why you're under stress" i think he's saying that all you get from living for money and material things is useless shit (magazines stacks) and broken backs (from working too hard), resulting in being very stressed and confused about the meaning of your seemingly wasted life. |

| Pink Floyd – Take Up Thy Stethoscope and Walk Lyrics | 17 years ago |

my interpretation... I'm in bed, aching head gold is lead choke on bread underfed gold is lead jesus bled pain is red dark doom he seems to be talking about dark times here, perhaps suffering from depression. the person doesn't appreciate the great things in life, hence.. gold is lead, dark doom gruel ghouls, greasy spoons used spoons, June Bloom this part seems to be about the transition out of that depressive episode, going from something horrible like gruel ghouls to june bloom. metaphorically, the flowers are coming out finally! music seems to help the pain seems to contemplate the brain Doctor kindly tell your wife that I'm alive flowers thrive realise realise realise! music can help one get through tough times. as for the doctor tell your wife line... i think its just a way of saying don't worry about me anymore i've figured things out, i've realized i need to appreciate life now instead of worrying and dwelling on the bad things. to me, the title, "take up thy stethoscope and walk," has the same type of meaning too: stop looking for problems within yourself (take up thy stethoscope), get up and live your life (walk) because its a beautiful thing |

| Soundgarden – Mailman Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| A quote from Chris Cornell in concert back in 94... "This next song, its meaning is about killing your boss, it's called mailman. its about coming to work early one morning cause you have a special agenda and your going to shoot him in the fucking head." | |
