| Evanescence – Haunted Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Ben based the song off a story he wrote, I think about a little girl who walked into a haunted house, she was trapped for the rest of her life, could never find her way out, followed, beat and raped by a man, or something along those lines. | |
| Evanescence – Weight of the World Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is about pressure from fans and the media. If anyone hasn't noticed ny now, in the past few years, you see so many girls running around with long black hair, tripp pants and armwarmers, singing and playing piano, etc. Amy has become an icon for so many teenagers, and now she feels pressured to do everything right, because she knows she's being watched. Also, her music and style has changed from the previous album, and she doesn't want to maintain her old image. Feels like the weight of the world (all the pressure from the fans and media, along with family and personal issues, is a lot on her back) like God in heaven gave me a turn (God gave her a purpose to change the lives of these people) don't cling to me, I swear I can't fix you (She doesn't want these people to cling to her like she's a god and depend on her, quote "Don't cling to me, I don't have the answers!" She isn't a god, she can't fix everyone) still in the dark, can you fix me? (This might mean that she's asking God to fix her from what she's become, or asking the fans to help her in return) freefall, freefall, all through life If you love me, then let go of me (This could be directed to anyone. To her fans, her family, ex lovers, God. If they love her, they have to realize she's human, and can fend for herself. She isn't a frail little doll) I wont be held down by who I used to be (She won't feel pressured to maintain the image she set up for herself, she's changing) she's nothing to me Feels like the weight of the world like all my screaming has gone unheard (Fans worship her and love her, but can't hear her 'screaming'. They can't fix her problems like she's fixed theirs) and oh I know you don't believe in me safe in the dark, how can you see? (How can all these people claim to love her, when they don't know what she's going through?) freefall, freefall, all through life If you love me, then let go of me I wont be held down by who I used to be |

quiffporn, go somewhere else and rant. btw, slayer sucks. 'walking in the air' is such a beautiful song, espeacially when driving in new england (:P). I think it's about a dream, or ghosts flying to heaven. |

| Nightwish – While Your Lips Are Still Red Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I think this song is about first love, and to tell someone you love them before they're gone. I've learned this lesson in my life. 'Kiss while your lips are still red', tell someone you love them before they die, before they're gone. It's about young love and first love, simply as that. | |
| Within Temptation – Forgiven Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Sharon herself told me what the song means when I met her in Philadelphia. She said in her circle of friends, a father lost his child, and she wrote the song from his point of view. | |
