Sufjan Stevens – All for Myself Lyrics 15 years ago
Carolyn Stern is my friend who doesn't like The Age of Adz very much. That post was a way to praise the album, and spite her at the same time.

Freelance Whales – Generator ^ First Floor Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm really surprised I'm only the second comment on this song, it's simply amazing.

I always just get the feeling of two people running around, just enjoying each others presence and being in love.

or maybe the picture is not the only memory they have but the best memory they have together.

Guster – Jesus On The Radio Lyrics 16 years ago
I think that the person narrating was on a road trip with his Girl Friend/friend (why else would they be up at 5am and Jesus music is the only type of music on the radio at 5am). and the other person takes a picture of him in the yellow bucket seats of the car.
The two people fall apart and separate and the only real memory of them together is the picture.
The other person wants to rebuild their relationship but looking back on that picture, the narrator realizes that he is a much different person now then he was before and as a result he doesn't think that they can get back together because the other person has not changed themselves.

The Format – She Doesn't Get It Lyrics 17 years ago
I always finding myself thinking of things that are usually really far off from what the song means but I what I get from this song is...

A guy is dating this girl and she gets a promotion or something so she has to move away

"You're crying, let's make a toast She says she's leaving on a Sunday"

he has been in a long distance relationship before and he was the only one who ended up getting hurt from it, so he is going to breakup with her but he falls in love with her so he doesn't,

The Format – I'm Ready, I Am Lyrics 17 years ago
I feel that this is about two people that are starting to move on to new stages of their life and are relizing that the other person may not be the right person for them... and as much as they try to make it work they are not meant for each other and have to part in order to move on with their lives.

The Format – I'm Ready, I Am Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is about two people moving to new stages in their lives and they are starting to relize that even though as much as they want to stay together and make it work... they are just different people and need to move on even if they are scared they need to find who they really are.

The Goo Goo Dolls – Black Balloon Lyrics 17 years ago
I am almost positive this song is about abortion...

"Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees"

(Baby's black balloon usually a babies ballon is either pink or blue but it's a black balloon because it's mourning the dead)

"A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
THAT WAS YOUR WOMB"


I don't want to spend 2 hours typing this so your going to have to figure it out for yourself but if you look at everything it makes since.

(I do think that the first verse is the talking to the mom and the second is to the aborted baby)

Something Corporate – Me And The Moon Lyrics 17 years ago
Yes... I realize I was the last comment on this song but, I just thought of something else (that always seems to happen right after I post one) This probably doesn't make any sence to anyone else but oh well...

I think that her husband is abusive (like I last posted) and I think that he is on drugs... The wife used to be a crackhead like the husband but ever since she had her daughter she is trying to stay clean...Her husband on the other hand is trying to break her and make her relaps

"But what do you say we go for a ride?
What do you say we get high?
But I'm so tired of days that feel like the night"
This is what he says to her to try and make her go back to her old ways. But she can't take the abuse and the punishment any more so... she shoots him.

Oh yeah and the part where it says "There's no tears, cause he's not here" means that he's high.

Well, thats my newest interpratation of this song. I don't know if it makes sence to any else but this is just the story I think about when I hear this.

Something Corporate – Me And The Moon Lyrics 17 years ago
I always think of a women who is abused by her husband even though it says... "No one's so sure if her crime had a reason"... I still think so whether it was neglect or physical abuse (maybe he was cheating on her), I the part about being a butterfly is about her earning her freedom and flying away...

"It's me and the moon," she says
I got no trouble with that
But i am a butterfly, you wouldn't let me die
"It's me and the moon," she says

I think that this part is that she always found comfort in the moon when her husband was neglecting her.

I just think that this is a great song with a really cool but creepy meaning. (How some people would do anything to feel free)

The Fray – Heaven Forbid Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this is a song about someone with a drinking problem... The singer is talking to them, The part where it says " Heaven forbid you end up
Alone and don't know why
Hold on tight, wait for tomorrow,
You'll be alright."

It's saying that you should know about your drinking problem and thats why this person is alone... I think they were driving and they hit someone when they were drunk.... "Out of this one
Don't know how to get you out of this one,
Don't know how to get you out of this one,
Don't know how to get you out of this one,
Don't know how to get you out of this one"

He doesn't know how he is going to fix this and what he can do to help...

The Shins – Caring Is Creepy Lyrics 17 years ago
I think the first verse is about him finding out that his girlfriend is cheating on him... "i think i'll go home and mull this over
before i cram it down my throat
at long last it's crashed, the colossal mass
has broken up into bits in my moat."

I think that, that part is saying that he needs to go home and think about what he just found out.

The rest of the song seems to me as if he is trying to go on without her and is hiding that he really misses her from everyone.
"i never got cold wearing nothing in the snow."

I think that is saying that he has locked away his feelings and has become so used to not showing emotion that he loses them.

Kevin Devine – You're Trailing Yourself Lyrics 17 years ago
I don't know why I always think of this but everytime I hear this I think of a girl and she has been with this guy for a while and she finds out he has a family and children, (The first verse is her being really mad and keying his car and contemplating calling him or something like that... After that happens a few weeks later her life is falling apart and Kevin is her friend telling her how she is now and what will happen

Basically, I think its about losing your self... (but thats what I think about most of the songs on this CD)

Kevin Devine – Brooklyn Boy Lyrics 17 years ago
your silver tongue it masks your hungry hate
while your haggard heart whispers through its cracking cage
you still can change, you have to know, you still can change
I know, I know, for now I wanna be this way


haggard heart whispers through its cracking cage

I think that means that he is starting to realize that his lifestyle is wrong and that he needs help... he is starting to be able to hear what he heart is truely saying, The cage around it is cracking away.

When he says that knows that he can still change means that he knows he needs help but he is procrastinating getting help

Jack's Mannequin – Kill The Messenger Lyrics 18 years ago
I think that this song is sung by someone on their deathbed singing to the person they love,
In the song when he mentions his nightmares, he means that he has been dreaming of dying and having to leave her behind.
" Kill the messenger I swear it's not me It's just someone I used to know" means that he used to be a bad person but now he has changed.
When he says "And get to church 'Cause you're a good girl" I think that means that he wants to see her in heaven with him when she dies... "And I never told you that" means that he never told her how he loved her.
When he says that " I'm gonna send a little rain to pour down on you Rain that makes the flowers bloom" it means that it will be sad when he is gone but it will be good for her to move on.
- well thats what I think the song means
