Silverstein – Vices Lyrics 16 years ago
haha thank you both for answering my question that i didnt have to ask =)
this song is one of my favorites on the CD.
The title alone is brilliant.. arent we all a victim of one vice or another,
but the best lines i think
"I'm not coming home tonight,
i'd rather sleep on the street.
Im not coming home to you,
I WONT SLEEP WITH THE DEVIL"

its something i couldnt put into words my self but wish i could, because when i heard it i knew it was perfect.
someone is obviously poisenous to your happiness and well being because they are destroying your trust and love. this girl is so obviously cheating on him, and hes finally starting to deal with that realization wich hes possibly been avoiding all along.
hes gonna cope by drinking and trying to forget her...
but he wins in the end just because he'd rahter sleep on the streets than go home to her.
shes a life ruiner.

Silverstein – American Dream Lyrics 16 years ago
This song came across weird to me at first because of the title..
but the way the song starts is perfect, and how it all slows down to get quit for shane to sing is brilliant..

this song could be about two people clearly in love and about to get married,
but there are so many things that the guy is keeping in, that he never says,,
and it builds up and builds up until it comes out but nothing ever gets fixed or solved..
they just keep going back and forth, but he wont let it go, assuming thats what all these scars that wont heal and cuts that wont close are really refering to his relationship that he is still in but suffering from.

Silverstein – The End Lyrics 16 years ago
this is something new for silverstein, this duet with "lights"
she's really good btw.
but its a side of shane and the band i havent seen, alot softer and its actually probably the closest to a love song that they have had to date.

it just seems like even though they are trying to say they are "unlovable", they are both still fighting to love each other.

its really sweet, but just like the title...its the end,

New Found Glory – 47 Lyrics 16 years ago
one of the best songs on the cd right after "right were we left off"

its about a guy thats trying to get with this girl and she obviously has alot of feelings for him as well but she keeps shifting because of someone else that she cant let go of.
and possibly that she simply has a hard time trusting him.
so shes avoiding his calls, because she doesnt know what she wants...

the chorus is the cutest part though
"its not time to let go,
this is not how its supposed to end in my mind, my baby"

soo cute.<3

Rufio – Tears Lyrics 16 years ago
oh rufio,,, how you you console me in my time of need :D

its pretty self explanatory. but a sad song about how he knows they are seperating and hes truly going to miss her, and genuinly loves her.

somethings you cant find the words to say and thats where he's saying tears come in.

ahh rufio come baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack :(

New Found Glory – Right Where We Left Off Lyrics 16 years ago
well, first of all this cd is amazing (they never dissapoint me)
and second this is one of the best songs on the album,
its perfect..

its about someone whos generally giving you mixed signals but primarily killing you because they are blinding your good senses... you should get away from them but you care for them too much. and i think that most people want to be on the same page with others so that they dont have to say or do certain things...that it will be kind of an unspoken agreement.
so maybe he means that he understands that nothing good is going to come out of the situation (like a descent relationship or anything meaninfull) and that he just wants to pick up where they left off and not make a big issue out of the fact that shes screwing him...
its just something he doesnt want to make a big deal about because then once again reality sets in for him everytime the conversation comes up....why cant we?

does that make sense?
hope so..

Anthony Green – Drug Dealer Lyrics 17 years ago
hhahahahaa this song had like the funniest smart ass comments by far.
the songs about salads and idiots were by far my fav.

this song is probably legitimatley about a drug dealer

just like stonehearted man is metephorical i think that this song is too, but i think its only half//
cuz overall im sure he really does have a drug dealer in real life, but they provide him with alot more than drugs.

submissions
Anthony Green – Slowing Down Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is one of the best on avalon.
i think its abouta dying relationship and one person in the relationship is living in the past,
he is just wishing she would stop because its dragging them down and making it harder to try and make things work.
and overall he just never wanted things to become the way they have between the two,
but he knows if it doesnt end now that she is going to end up hating him, or they will end up hating each other.
and they have become these two people that they never used to be, if they dont leave each other they will never be able to salvage anything from the relationship.
its really sad but i think its just really knowing your boundaries, what you can and cannot take, and when you should call it a day, and take what you can from what you've learned.
a bittersweet lesson that everyone has to learn eventually.

Thursday – Love Has Led Us Astray Lyrics 17 years ago

Anthony Green – Stone Hearted Man Lyrics 17 years ago
seriously why the fuck does everyone do anything BUT comment on what the song means??

srsly thanks hanna405 for actually attempting to interpret it and not just giving me information on nostradomous and whether or not its his new band or not...

any ways,,,this song is pretty self explanatory but i think its him basicaly saying that his addictions make it easier to deal with all the shit that comes his way and that even though its easier because of being stoned all the time...that he cant
always be that way, he has to attempt to feel and attempt to get through situations without his addictions.
i think its like a bittersweet advantage that he gets when hes struggling with these addictions..
" they say what doesnt kill the soul will make it harder but you cant be a stonehearted man"

its okay to protect yourself, as a matter of fact its pretty much a necesity in order to avoid people taking advantage and huting you but dont let it consume you to where you lose your heart and compassion.
finding balance

Name Taken – I Quit My Scene Lyrics 17 years ago
I love the begginning of this song probably the most

"its what you want and who you are, that has always been two very different things"

that alone tells me that the relationship couldnt work because of the fact that this girl can never be what both he wants or she wants completely.
that is somoething that can never change.
its about a failing relationship that has taken alot out of both of them, but overall the guy is so sad to see it fall apart because of all the fighting and stress that has been put into it to make it work.
and in the end the person he see's in her is not the person that he is fighting to keep all along...
which goes back to the beggining and saying that basically shes never gonna be that person that he wants.

its actually really sad.
but its about growing up and growing out of a relationship that you cared very much for

Pierce the Veil – The Cheap Bouquet Lyrics 17 years ago

Taking Back Sunday – The Blue Channel Lyrics 17 years ago
Cheating of course.
awww old tbs. these were the days.
this was their best album, hands down, (although it was like a whole different band) but still
this song is about cheating, teen angst, and how even though they both know shes cheating...
he still waits for her call, and still cant get over it.

Death Cab for Cutie – Someday You Will Be Loved Lyrics 17 years ago
in a twisted kind of way its sweet.
like a guy could just leave you and be a dick,
but is like... maybe an easy cop out, but at the same time saying...
i know one day your gonna forget about me and find someone who can really love you like you have never been loved
and even better than you could ever imagine me to love you.

its really sweet, and clever.
It makes me smile everytime i hear it, overall its a really sweet love song that represents heartbreak and hope at the same time

Bayside – Dear Tragedy Lyrics 17 years ago
one of the best bayside songs. bitterness, hatred, and all.

this song is about a person that has hurt you and sucked out everything great about love for you.
they continuously played games and dragged you along like a puppet on a string.
and you just want them to know how that made you feel, what that did to you...
He would rather be alone than ever have to go through that again.. ever have to feel that shitty and taken advantage of.
theres no excuse for the actions that were done in complete spite...

I think a part of it is him kicking himself for allowing this person into his life and letting them hurt him so much.
and yet he still finds himself giving her the benefit of the doubt by constantly going back and forth on whether to keep sentimental items or even thinking about the person in the first place, or mostly hateing himself for even letting them know that they have gotten to him THAT much.


and its really great how he starts out with "her friends and family should have taught her more about love"
i think thats relevant for alot of people.
Overall its a bitter song. but its soo true.

Bayside – Half A Life Lyrics 17 years ago
"i dont think ill ever understand, how a cowardly cat can call himself a man"

this band def. has a piece of my heart.
they know just where to hit to make you feel and understand all their lyrics.
anthony reminds me of jesse lacey as far as lyrical genius is concerned.

the song brings up bitterness between old friends.. or maybe not so much friends...but i think its just about someone whos a serious asshole and who doesnt care to look at himself and the decisions he is making that are affecting others negativley
i dont know it just makes you thik... that things are not always as they seem...
if people are putting on a show...then they are most likely not happy or being true to themselves.

Silverstein – Worlds Apart Lyrics 17 years ago
in the begginning of the song when they play live, they always play a skit where the girl is telling him that she has been cheating on him and that shes leaving him..
its actually pretty fucked up.

they are worlds apart.

New Found Glory – Vegas Lyrics 17 years ago
yea really... i agree with all the "detatchment" comments.
its true like sometimes you just wonder,, whats this all for?

serious especially because most of the time it ends up being a bunch of bullshit.

the dark side of the cute relationship pretty much.

New Found Glory – If You Don't Love Me Lyrics 17 years ago
really? no comments?
this is one of the best songs on the tip of the iceberg cd.

obviously its about someone whos treating you like crap..and is in a way leading you on.
they keep messing with your emotions and your too in love with them or infatuated to notice.

they are tired of begging the other person to feel the same way.

so at the end he finally decides to burn that bridge and cut ties because he's not gonna beg for them to love him anymore
if they dont..

the lyrics are pretty simple to understand.

"oh, the secrets you keep...
all the secrets you keep,
so can i ask you about the sleepless nights, the cold shoulders never returning phone calls, constantly questioning our chemistry, the look i'm used to you having, you hold back all you feel, and i expect this to come back to me."

Thursday – Understanding In A Car Crash Lyrics 17 years ago
This song reminds me of appreciation of our lives.

"I dont want to feel this way forever"

it makes me think of not wanting to feel stuck in this world of regret forever..
its like all the things you would have done different if you had another chance.,
thursday has a captivating way of doing that..just making you think outside of the box and how you can
appreciate the small things so much more than we do.

"broken windows open locks remind me of the youth we lost"

that line makes me sad,, its like sometimes we forget, and it takes something huge to remind us of the life we live and the impact it should have on us

The Early November – Sunday Drive Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is sad.
you get such a perfect picture in your head of them driving and having this talk...
you know "the talk" where its like you know its all ending and its heartbreaking..
but you dont really want it all to be over..
its like, you are so sad to see this person you love not happy with you, and you think how could they be so happy without me when i feel so hopeless without them?

and after this whole discussion, things are never going to be the same.. its unfortionate but sometimes its really impossible to avoid no matter how much you dont want it to be that way

The Early November – I Want To Hear You Sad Lyrics 17 years ago
i want to hear you sad is such a great name for a song.

..i think its exactly what its called,, bitterness and all..
i want to hear you sad, and lonley and needing me for once,, i get it..
its like this relationship is definitly doomed and theres really not much that can be done,,
but its continuously dragged out to no returned.
you realize your better off without them if it means not putting up with their crap,,,
and for once you want to hear them sad..

this song always makes me so patient.
its about a failed relationship at best, its so sweet as well as sad.

Boys Night Out – Hold On Tightly, Let Go Lightly Lyrics 17 years ago
oohhh mann..

im gonn say,,

this song is about a good friend who loves you enough to promise to be the last one there for you..
they are a really realy loyal friend that would do anything for you.

it sounds like a specific event but realy it comes down to the fact that we all suffer personally tradgedies...and it sometimes seems impossible to overcome,, but theres not much that can be done but have that loyal person be ther for you

Thursday – This Side Of Brightness Lyrics 17 years ago
its so short, but theres so much meaning even in just the first two lines.

it may be about geoffs friends but in a general sense i think that this song is a little reminder of how hard
it may be to just get through a day sometimes and how hopeless it may feel..
but thats part of life for everyone,,and he is recognizing that through the lyrics..
which in an ironic way should make us all a little more relateable to each other.

we should definitly have more compassion for each other..

but yea this song delivers that message

the best way i think he's ever described an emotion..
"I sewed it up Stitched all these dead end streets
Into the sewn up seams of my heartstrings unwind(unwound)"



AMAZING SERIOUSLY!

Armor for Sleep – Kind Of Perfect Lyrics 17 years ago
i also agree with rllngstn72...thats actually spot on..

we all experience it sometime..it sucks cuz thats just how you feel about some people..

even if the feeling isnt mutual..or even if it means holding on to something that is hurting you.

Thursday – Autumn Leaves Revisited Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is nothing short of perfect.

"there must be somewhere that ciggarettes burn through the night,
and the leaves dont abandon their trees to the light,
the skies always clear and the summer never ends,
wont you take me there?"

i know this song is about death because at a show in 06 thursday played it and said,
this song is a lullaby that we sing when someone close to us is going to pass away...

it symbolizes death and i think it sums up all the senses in life..like i draw up such a specific picture in my mind when i hear this song that i only wish that i could put it into a picture i could see... i relfect back on memories in life and places that i will probably reflecet on in death..

It's sad but true..we all want to imagine that theres somewhere so much better that we will go when its over..

somewhere where theres no pain, no hurt, no judgement, and overall hapiness that we could never imagine.

its such a beatiful song.

New Found Glory – Singled Out Lyrics 17 years ago
i think its simply about friends who have turned on you and you would have/ did do anything for them
it just feels shitty to know you lose friends over such bullshit.
but i think thats what the song centers on....

betrayl, and lies.
someone who hurts you and finally you walk away from them...
but when the time comes that they need you, your not gonna be there for them.

"why'd you have to go and make me say these things about you"
"why'd you have to turn around after all that we've been through"

New Found Glory – It's Not Your Fault Lyrics 17 years ago
it sounds like one of those premature first relationships where those feelings are so pure and innocent...
like those butterflies and rapid heart beats you get when you meet someone you really like.

i love the beggining....

"it was a cold california, even in the summer"

its such a perfect song for young love.

New Found Glory – The Story So Far Lyrics 17 years ago
Oh Man...

way back to freshman year,
this song is about meeting a person that you hit it off with from the beginning,,,someone that you just talked
to for hours and you relate to so well,
realizing that youve been looking too hard and not paying enough attention to the simple things you love about
meeting a great person.
but finding it and being afraid that somehow you'll mess up a great thing you have found..

it really just goes back to those high school crush feelings,,,
innocence basically =)

Silverstein – Call It Karma Lyrics 17 years ago
This song can mean alot of differnt things, but I'm gonna say that its universal for the most part but suggests
that it could be about a relationship.

Its like, this person you care about continues to hurt you, and even though you know that you need to get away from
them its difficult to do them because they are a long time friend and someone you obviously care about.
Love is blinding you and your suffering because you continue stay in this situation fearing to let go.

and its weird because the whole bridge could be a sarcastic sly against the person, but i really think that its
ultimately not...

i think that the person who continues to get hurt finally realizes that as hard as it is to let go,,he's not going
to make it harder by being bitter about the situation.
so reflecting on memories and good times they have had he lets it go with "honor and no regrets"

but at the same time its saying karma is going to come back around and your going to have to live with what you did

Great Great lyrics, and so relateable (sp)

Thursday – A Hole In The World Lyrics 17 years ago
this song has to be one of the most influencial and thought provoking from thursday.
really, everythings so true.. from the view of life to love.
overall they both go hand in hand but thursday just has a way of making you think,
its kind of sad when you think about it, but its inspirational at the same time.
we have to kind of learn to pick ourselves back up,,even though sometimes the quest for happiness seems hopeless
and never ending.
and sometimes becoming consumed by our daily lives, hurt, and pain can make us blind to what we should appreciate.
I truly beleive that it is about hope overall, and learning to live each day with it.
and possibly learning to love better, and learn to appreciate.

Senses Fail – Blackout Lyrics 17 years ago
i love this song,.,has to be my favorite on the album other than fireworks at dawn...

but i think they go hand in hand...

like throughout the whole cd he is struggling to move forward and let go...(its a problem everyone clearly has)
and finally this song at the end puts everything in prespective on just how far hes gotten.

like its kinda the "final struggle" in his battle with letting go and sorting out his life and emotional downfalls.

in the end he ends up understanding more than ever...like dude this hurts more than you can imagine and yea
i have to drink to it out of my system... but he does what he needs to...



"I just want to drown you out
With southern poison
If I had a drink
For every goddamn I think
About your pale skin dressed in pink
Then at least I could sleep
If I had a shot
For every goddamn time I thought
About your face and what I’d lost
At least I’d get some sleep"

gotta be the best lines.

Senses Fail – Map the Streets Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is pretty self explanitory,
Its about being prepared for the next time,,,i actually think he is specifically referring to a relationship,
but when he says

"I wish I could find the person that I was
I always thought that I’d be happy if I was loved
But I have nothing left to give
I don’t think I ever did"

i really think that hes talking about all aspects of love in his life (mother, father, girlfriend, friends,) and that he thought that if he had that love he figured he had been missing all along then he would be able to fix himself, but he realizes that he has to love himself before that can even happen, which he obviously is stateing that he doesnt because hes a drunk....

hes just gotta fix himself but if it ever happens again hes gonna be more than ready.

Brand New – Play Crack the Sky Lyrics 17 years ago
just cuz.....
....heres the part of the interview...

MH: Do you have a favorite track off of the new album?

JL: Yeah, actually the last track on it is called, “Play Crack The Sky,” and I recorded it actually about three weeks after we got out of the studio. We went to England and I came back and I had another song and I really wanted to put it on the record, so I went to my friend’s studio around the block from me and I laid it down and it’s my favorite song I’ve ever written in my life. When I listen to it, I can listen to it objectively, it feels like what I was feeling when I wrote it. I think that’s all you can really ask for a song when you’re writing it. It’s definitely my favorite one.

Brand New – Play Crack the Sky Lyrics 17 years ago
I love that it's like 4 yrs later and people are still posting but I think that's just the effect this song has on everyone.

I believe it's about love as a whole and how when we lose love it feels like a disaster & shipwreck. I just think about life when I listen to it. Because overall life has dozens of disasters in store for us but as sad as the song is there is so much beauty in it at the same time . I don't remember who said it but back in the comments someone mentioned that they thought it was about looking back on love and situations and remembering it for what it was but not exactly being in it. I also read in some interview that Jesse said that of all the songs he's written he loves this one the most because no matter how many times he listens to it of still holds it's significance and still feels exactly the same way he did the first time he wrote/recorded it. It's the best metaphor I've heard and it really just stays with you.

Brilliant.

Thursday – War All The Time Lyrics 17 years ago
ponyboy - its hella funny that you said that you think its about the loss of innosence in all of us because when i went to go get the lyrics "a memory of what it felt like to burn on and not just fade away" tattooed on me my artist read it and he kinda smirked and looked up at me....

and i was like what is it??

and he said" i dont know what this means to you but it reminds me of being young and having that innosence and love about life., its really nice"

and this guy didnt even know who thursday was.

and i really get the same exact message from the song. its alot about that and i think its really supposed to bring out the best in our pasts and help us kind of understand.

idk for sure...but i do know this band changed my life.

this song is amazing.

Sugarcult – Back to California Lyrics 17 years ago
" "Back to California" is perhaps the most gut-wrenching track on the album. It chronicles the thoughts one has when returning home to a loved one after a long time away‚ knowing the end of the relationship is inevitable. The excitement of going somewhere as comforting as home is tainted by the pain of reality."
