| Taylor Swift – Long Live Lyrics | 15 years ago |

This song absolutely makes me think of graduating high school. The crowds in stands went wild We were the kings and the queens And they read off our names It just totally makes me think of the sensation when your name gets called and you walk across the stage to get your diploma. For that one little moment, you and all of your friends, no matter how rebellious or how studious or how cool or unpopular you were, your little "band of thieves in ripped up jeans go to rule the world" just for that one special moment. It was the end of a decade But the start of an age At least for me, I just graduated in 2010, and those words absolutely 100% described how I felt about everything; the end of a decade, the end of an entire chapter of my life, but at the same time something completely new and unknown and exciting coming up. The night you danced like you knew our lives Would never be the same Makes me think of my grad night- we had our graduation ceremony, and then we all got on a bus and went to an all night party, the last time that our entire class would be together- ever. I think we all knew that the next time we all saw each other all of our lives would be different. When they point to the pictures Please tell them my name Tell them how the crowds went wild Tell them how I hope they shine I love this part of the song. To me, at least, this song is about graduating. Overall, I think it's about the sensation of leaving everyone you grew up with, fought dragons with, moved mountains with. But I think at a deeper level it's about that one special person- that highschool sweetheart or whatever. And while you both realize that life is moving on, you're making that promise to each other to always remember the awesome and inspiring times that you had together. You want to immortalize everything that you two accomplished together. It all may be ending right now, but someday your accomplishments will be remembered. |

| The All-American Rejects – Breakin' Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I think this song is simply about a guy who finds out his girlfriend has been cheating on him. He has clearly been hurt like this before, and reaches the conclusion that falling in love only leads to having your heart get broken. When he says "breakin's what your heart is for," he is not necessarily saying that he wishes that the girl gets her heart broken; instead, he is simply saying that he has figured out that love isn't really all that it's cracked up to be. It's a wonderful song to listen to when you feel like someone has broken your heart. | |

This song is amazing. The descriptions have pretty much hit the nail on the head. 'Pure' is such a great way to describe this. Golden is such a perfect word. Such an unused word. I feel, however, that this song may be about a girl who the writer likes or loves, trying to describe how he feels about her. We've been talkin' about a feeling, We both know inside but couldn't find the words I couldn't write this verse, I've seldom been so sure, About anything before so perfect. He feels that he is golden, he's been looking for that word, and it's as if he read something, or ran into that word, and realized that this word is perfect to describe this feeling. |
