Blindside – She Shut Your Eyes Lyrics 18 years ago
i think this song is about how something didnt go right with a girl and its hurting him

then i think the morning star or the "sun" part is about how he has to move on and forget about her because theres no point in worrying because he probably wont get her back

Blind Melon – I Wonder Lyrics 18 years ago
i think that first phrase, " All alone the broadening skies
Under the every night I will lie
Scratching claw and grip the rails
Every day my living hell
Oh God you know I've tried..."

is a bit of forshadowing of how drugs screwed his life up.

then the next phrase: "Hey I'd like to daze away to a
Place like no one has known
In a state of mind I could call mine
That only I could own
Where I could hum a tune anytime
I choose, and then there is no such thing as time"

basicly is glorifying drugs and what is good about them and the view he had about before he started or when he just started

then in the next phrase: "Now you see I'm watching everything
I do and they're watching everything I say
Why wont they leave me be?
Why am I even here? I wonder
You leave me wondering"

is basucly saying how he doesnt like how people are telling him to stop doing drugs because its helping him discover himself

and in the next phrase: "
Now in my corner I got the ceiling in my eyes
Arms holding up my knees
And rocking back and forth's my life"

obviously a powerful feeling he is realizing that drugs are a little more extreme than he thought they were, and he is forgeting who he used to be

and in this phrase: "I didn't mean to feel this way
When I walked into the door, Lord
Then they ripped away my memories
And I cant remember who I was before."

again with he didnt mean to feel this way, drugs werent necissarily for him and he cant remember who he was(its not a good feeling)

then in the end "And I only wanted to be 16 and free." he finally remembers who he was before it all started with the drugs and everything and he wants to go back to his past but he cant

i dont know if this is exactly how shannon felt when he wrote this but that is how i feel when i listen to this song and listen to the lyrics because this song relates almost perfectly with me

i started out experimenting and wondering what this whole drug thing was, i tried it out and it was a cool thing to experience at first but then it just started screwing my life up in some points, and i had to realize for myself that the only reason people were watching me and getting mad at me for doing stuff like that is because they cared. and when i "walked in the door" and started using drugs i didnt necassarily mean to feel the way i did.
