Beach House – Auburn and Ivory Lyrics 11 years ago
I believe this could be wayyy far off but I just had the thought of it.

It could be interpreted as a woman looking back unto her old self as a girl. a girl who was very depressed and got her sadness out through writing(white page turns to gold in the lights)
maybe because i struggled with a deep depression that was healed through things like art(among others) and it reminds me of this story.

since it never talks of death i think the reference is in 'auburn and ivory'
reddish-brownish and white to put more simply.
red is the blood, white is the skin or the paper.
i come to this far out conclusion because of the way in which the song is set up around this auburn and ivory, is titled such, and the subtle way she hints at the character being subdued.
she hints at this through "white light she stood so still"
"holding her bones by the fire"
to me those both in complex ways elicit thoughts of a subdued child. when are children still? when they are scared or not right.
also who 'holds their bones by the fire'
this alone elicits a sense of being far away from the body that requires warmth. even more so it gives a sense of not wanting to be there.

also all the use of white just screams innocence or purity. of course pages are white but she intentionally put that in there.
also 'wanting her one sacrifice' also sounds like a possible death/suicide reference.
all in all, this song, subtly, so so so subtly, sounds like a metaphorically journey through your old mind that was once terribly depressed. and it's not really your mind but you see one or two situations that had deep meaning to you.
'warming her eyes to the sea'
'writing a letter she sails'

anywho..

Fleetwood Mac – Dreams Lyrics 12 years ago
This is so stupid. It's Stevie's fault in your eyes but what i can see that you fail to realize is that the first one to step away from their, what you call being ' soul mates from the get go' was Lindsey being the first to cheat with groupies.
I fail to realize how this is her fault. It sounds as if he's allowed to give into temptation because he did it with the right people, people who didn't matter. But because she cheated(after he did first) with someone close to them, that was the one thing that really fucked it up.
wow i think your a very stubborn and stupid guy. i wonder why girls break your heart. you just don't get it.
