| Also, I hear "unstitch that shit I've sold" | |
| The Antlers – Putting the Dog to Sleep Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| It is, I agree. | |
| The Antlers – Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
According to psychology, if you have dreams about your teeth falling out, those dreams are somehow related to sex, or wanting sex. "You and I divorce, but not devout Every night my teeth are falling out" I think the song is about him still wanting a sexual relationship with his ex-wife/girlfriend. |

| mewithoutYou – Orange Spider Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I don't know why, but this reminds me of a Beatles song for some reason.. | |
| Guster – Ruby Falls Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| The song is obviously about suicide, or a suicide. More specifically, about splitting your wrists. Hence Ruby Falls. | |
| Envy on the Coast – The Gift of Paralysis Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Could this band rip-off Glassjaw any more? | |
| Coldplay – Yes Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| When I first heard the last two minutes, I thought my itunes skipped to a My Bloody Valentine song. | |
| Bon Iver – Skinny Love Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Song of the year. | |
| Billy Joel – Goodnight Saigon Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I saw him play this at MSG and cried my fucking eyes out like a little baby. One of the best moments of my life. | |
| Arcade Fire – My Body Is a Cage Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Our bodies are cages that keep our souls from dancing/returning with our higher selves/the creator/God. Only our minds can set us free. We are living in an age that is less and lass aware of this as the days go on. | |
| Say Anything – Died a Jew Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song gives me douche-chills. What the fuck happened to this band. | |
| The Mars Volta – Vermicide Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"Bare them sevens, three to a pall" 777 is an important number in Qabbala. If you read "777 And Other Qabbalistic Writings" by Aleister Crowley, a lot of this song, and other TMV lyrics become clearer. |

| The Mars Volta – Tetragrammaton Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"In the end they just gagged me to make him come out." http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/01/30/romania.exorcism.ap/index.html This is the story the song is based on. |
|
| The Mars Volta – Tetragrammaton Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"Rusbel" is a Spanish name which is mostly given to girls with reddish hair. Which leads me to believe this song is connected with Meccamputechre: "Under those locks of dirty red hair..." |
|
| Thrice – Come All You Weary Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This band TOTALLY fucking jumped the shark. Awful new sound, overbearing, in your face Christian lyrics. We get it, Mark. You're better than all of us because you're a Christian that can sing and play guitar. You smug fuck. Way to completely alienate and get rid of 90% of your fan base. | |
| Death Cab for Cutie – I Will Possess Your Heart Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Very dark and mature song. I hope the rest of the album is like this. | |
| A Perfect Circle – Pet Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums" Anyone who says this song is just about drugs is an obtuse idiot. FUCK THE NEW WORLD ORDER! |

| Flawless. | |
| Coheed and Cambria – Gravemakers and Gunslingers Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"We’ll keep marching to the top of this tower." This song/album makes it very clear that Claudio is heavily influenced by Stephen King's Dark Tower series. Which is definitely not a bad thing. I could totally see Roland and his Ka-tet kicking some ass to this song. |
|
| Tool – Vicarious Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Maynard is basically saying "you look at me like I'm a monster for what I sing about, how I dress, etc...but look at what you zombies all view as entertainment, news, etc" | |
| Tool – Disgustipated Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
The first part is Maynard basically saying "fuck you" to vegetarians. The second part is indeed a story that was left on Maynard's answering machine by his landlord. I think it even says this in the album liner notes, but Maynard has confirmed this multiple times both live and in interviews. |
|
| Tool – Reflection Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
jHe's actually talking about the moon. Keeping with the Hermetic theme of the album, Hermes Trimestigus said that the Sun is the father, and the moon is the mother. The moon/mother is comforting him and without her, he'd be nothing. Anyway. This song is about destroying your ego in order to spiritually transcend. We're all stuck in our 3D ego consciousness, and we cannot transcend until we "crucify the ego" |
|
| Tool – Lateralus Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"As above, so below" This is the Hermetic principle of correspondence. All seven of the Hermetic principles are used within various mystery schools (Thelema, Theosophy, etc). The one thing all these schools have in common, in relation to the Hermetic principles, is the necessity of the death of the ego in order to transcend and grow spiritually. That's what this whole album, this song especially, seems to be saying. |

| The Mars Volta – Goliath Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"hold your heavy burden in a pocket full of drink that I’ve drunk spit the remnants in your direction this is the closest to any kingdom that you will come" "that night I remember what you slipped in my glass we came rewinding when I foamed at the mouth and now my shape is kept the rain it can't hide wash the pain from this hex is it so permanent" All references to the Jonestown massacre. By the way, it was raining on the day of the mass suicides. Hence the talk of the rain not being able to wash the vex away. I still think "Goliath" is some form of Jim Jones. Having used Ouija boards before, I've been in contact with spirits who claim they are everyone from Hitler to Abraham Lincoln. Did Jim Jones really contact them through the Soothsayer or was it just a spirit misleading and lying to them? Who knows. |

| The gold standard is rising. The flood is coming. 2012. | |
| Klaxons – 4 Horsemen Of 2012 Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The Mayan Long count Calendar actually ends on December 21st 2012, which converted to our current Gregorian standard is actually some time in October, 2011 (I forget the actual date). The Maya never predicted that this would be the end of the world, rather the last stage in man's evolution of consciousness, wherein we enter the galactic cycle. It's also interesting to note that on this date our solar system will be alligned with the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way, for the first time in millions of years. Some say the world will end, some say we will enter a new dimension, some say our consciousness will evolve. Either way, big changes are in store, and soon. | |
