The Butterfly Effect – Aisles of White Lyrics 16 years ago
Pretty sure this song is about being in a relationship that means alot to you, then suddenly you meet another person who you fall in love with, and not really knowing quite how to feel or what to do.

Think of the song name, aisles of white, if you were in a completely white room full of pure white aisles you wouldn't be able to tell where the aisles are, you would keep bumping into them. It's a really intelligent take on flying blind, in one way it has juxtaposition in that instead of stumbling around in the dark (black) you are in a pure white room, nothing is restricting your eyesight but your own perception, so it is exactly the same.

I'll just analyze a few paragraphs to show you what I mean

"Don't fall we could have had it all
Another breath your taking
Slow rise your love is suicide
This heart is slowly breaking"

He is telling himself that the love he is with is perfect, he would happily live his life with this person (We could have had it all) But he is feeling suffocated by this person's love, at the same time feeling immensity guilty that he is having feeling with another woman. The situation is causing him emotional pain.

"They're calling me from heaven
To walk towards the light"

This could easily be thought as the afterlife calling for him, but I think it's a reference to his conscious telling him to do the right thing (You do the right thing, you will be rewarded)

"Hey wait this time it's not too late
To stop this ship from sinking
Don't go so much you didn't know
It's never what you're thinking"

This is a hard one, has he gone and stuffed his relationship, then told himself 'it's not too late' to get with the other woman, he would not loose everything. He stops the other woman from getting away and spills his guts about how he fells about her. With a sinister ending that implies that he gets with this new woman and begins eyeing off other women, but telling his new love that her suspicions have no ground.

Another possibility is that he stops himself from going to this other person, and stops this relationship falling apart. In the last moments he admits that he felt this way about another woman before his love leaves him, but assures her that nothing ever happened between them, it wasn't what she was thinking.

"I've waited for something
Waited for someone to arrive
I've waited for something
Waited for this day to arrive"

Again this could support the other theoretical branches of the story, he waited for the day to arrive that he would find one love, and he found something else, something that would stop him searching for another woman. Or maybe he is looking back on how he searched for someone else for so long, until the day came he realized that he had her all along, then stuffed it, he knew the day was coming when everything would fall apart, so perhaps in this case he was waiting with apprehension

Manowar – Heart Of Steel Lyrics 18 years ago
I love manowar, they always make me laugh god damn there lyrics are funny, and don't forget the leather *shudders* lmfao. anyway, this song is about standing up for what you believe in, especially against someone else whose beliefs are wrong (in manowars eyes anyway) standing up to people who 'cut each others throats' meaning people who talk down to others or betray each other. 'burn the bridge behind you' you will go all the way for what you believe in. not exactly sure whay he rides a comet though...odd man that joey...odd

R.E.M. – Lotus Lyrics 18 years ago
to me this song has always ment something interviening in your life (especially someone) then falling into depression, only to be helped up again and taking it in your stride (let is rain rain rain, bring my happy back again). "eating the lotus" symbolizes never wanting to leave (odyseiuss) that happy place you return to. i know im probably completely wrong but thats just what i have always thought. love this song so much
