Motion City Soundtrack – Boombox Generation Lyrics	18 years ago
this song talks about the fickle media just strings along one band at a time, and they will come and go. But the message is to say what you want to say, not what will get you famous because either way, fame or no, the important thing is you were honest to yourself. ~the leaky sink of sentiment

Motion City Soundtrack – Perfect Teeth Lyrics

18 years ago

fond memories of youth... being irresponsible and careless... lots of songs on the album can be characterized this way. References to the beastie boys and drug use are described as good memories, but should be left in the past. He realizes that his past was not as perfect as he once thought it was, that in reality his past friends didnt love him as mich as he thought and everyone was just in the same place at the same time. In this way he is grateful that he has moved on, but will always remember fondly the times when they had "perfect teeth the way they are." ~the leaky sink of sentiment

18 years ago

so they meet accidentaly and he remembers this fondly... but they didnt have passion and it was purely physical, "skin skin please let me in." so she left him in tears, because he wanted to know who whe was but she never let him in. She comes back to him but they only pick up where they left off, and the relationship falls apart again. She was his favorite accident nonethe less. ~the leaky sink of sentiment

Motion City Soundtrack – Indoor Living Lyrics

18 years ago

this song is about a guy whose glory days are in the past, and has long since fallen off the radar. He sees himself as a worthless individual who could never live up to anyone's expectations, and so he stays home or wherever he is comfortable so he'll never experience that failure. If he doesn't know failure he can't complain. So dont take him out or make him try, he would only let you down is what hes saying. its a sad sad song. ~the leaky sink of sentiment

Motion City Soundtrack – The Future Freaks Me Out Lyrics

18 years ago

Betty is a girl stuck in her youth... drinking and wasting time and being young and enjoying that part of life. However, he feels like they are alone in this stupor, without purpose or direction. yet he still chooses to waste his time with her because he loves her, even though she doesn't love him nearly enough. But he still has ambition to make something out of life and to reach beyond his limitations, and take control. In the process he loses Betty, who doesn't love him enough to grow up wioth him. The slow part at the end is him calling back to Betty to come join him in real life, a future he is scared to face alone. But he realizes in the end she can never join him, that he must face the future on his own, so fuck it. ~the leaky sink of sentiment

Motion City Soundtrack – Shiver Lyrics	18 years ago
this song is about a shiver from a broken heart... a girl continuously teases him, making him think the action is real. But she always leaves him out to dry, so he can never actually discover who she really is. But as time goes on he realizes i just wants to be a part of her life like she has always been a part of his. -the leaky sink of sentiment

Motion City Soundtrack – Cambridge Lyrics	18 years ago
the song is about some sort of a car wreck, in a cold place. either in a cold minnesota or cold UK. it speaks about sadness being universal, because everyone has their shitstorm to deal with. he talks about it from the long hospital stay during which only people with ample time visited him, not including the girl who made him believe he would pull through. -the leaky sink of sentiment
