Rufus Wainwright – Tiergarten Lyrics 18 years ago
Tiergarten is actually a part of Berlin. And I think the whole song is about his boyfriend, since he's german and they have also lived there for a while.
It really is such a beautiful lovesong and I am still amazed by Rufus' voice.

IAMX – President Lyrics 18 years ago
I think it's about people who don't fit in society. People who don't compromise themselves to be "normal". And about the people who do exactly that. Hide their true selves to fit in. Especially the lines:
Most fall in line
They do the dance
And salute the safest thing
Bought with their lives
Cry and socialize
And throw all the beauty away

IAMX – Naked But Safe Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree. I think he talks about the "chains" of society, that people want you to be a certain way and when you aren't, they try to change you.

IAMX – Spit It Out Lyrics 18 years ago
I think that the line "Don't beg the question when the answer is war" means, that most people are afraid of rejection. When they are in love with somebody, they are afraid of telling him/her because there is the possibilty that they don't return their love.
Sorry for the bad english btw. I'm swiss

Frida Hyvönen – Once I Was A Serene Teenaged Child Lyrics 18 years ago
i think that it's just about a girl who wants to be "grown up" and mature, but then it just goes to fast for her.

I wanna stay up all night, now that I live on my own
I wanna be one of you guys
but I don't want your body so close and dismembered
I don't want your body so close and dismembered
don't take your pants off 'cause I don't want to see it
