Radiohead – Reckoner Lyrics 16 years ago
well i reckon (teehee, no pun intended) that the reason he sings it that way is so that it can speak to you, the way you want to hear it, rather than the lyrics refering to a specific event in a specific person's life. that's just my opinion, anyways, i still don't understand some of the lines!

Tim Minchin – Drowned Lyrics 16 years ago
I love this song, it is not Tim Minchin's usual comic style but it is truely one of the most beautiful songs ever written! I think what he is trying to convey is that his love for this woman is one of those infuriatingly frustrating things. Maybe he is saying that he can not get enough of her when he talks about the "symphony on mute" and "last breath of salty air." And when he writes "an overused metaphor" he is saying she cannot be summed up literally, only in metaphors which he tries using too often. But generally he feels he loves her too much, so much he feels he is "drowned" in his love for her. When he sings "there's no point in turning round" and "there's no point trying to find dry land" he is saying he can not even try to stop loving her and he will only keep loving her more. That is my take on it anyways. I know what you mean MISSILE, it is wrong that more people are not listening to this!!! Anyways, thanks for reading this if you got to the end!! lol XxX

Muse – Hyper Chondriac Music Lyrics 16 years ago
i really like this song, i like hyper music too. that one has a sense of anger about it while this one is just sadness. they are almost identical lyrically and the basic tune is the same. it just shows how the same thing happening can have different consequences.
yet i still don't understand the actual lyrics yet, anyone explain? X

Sia – Sweet Potato Lyrics 16 years ago
i think it's about people who have seen each other at the train station every day or something, and then one of them makes a move but they already know eachoother like the back of the hand because of the way they appear on the train.

Sia – You Have Been Loved Lyrics 16 years ago
i think it's someone telling their friend that he does really love her in the chorus, and the verses are how the friend feels about him. does that make sense? oh well.

Sia – Broken Biscuit Lyrics 16 years ago
i think she's been abused and she's scared it's going to happen again. Sia doesn't do a lot of ornaments as she normally does, which makes it seem softer. such a beautiful song

Muse – Blackout Lyrics 17 years ago
i think this is an old man talking on his death bed. in the first verse to his wife, in the second to his children/grandchildren. the last to everyone including himself, saying your never old enough to die or to understand life.
this song is my favourite song of all time and always will be

Evanescence – Breathe No More Lyrics 17 years ago
"I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my souls on the other side."
she feels empty because of self hatred


"Oh the little pieces falling, shatter"
she feels broken


"To sharp to put back together.
To small to matter,"
she is so broken inside that she feels she can't be fixed


"But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces"
but she is still broken and it still hurts


"Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child."
she takes a breath believing that it might help, but her spirit (you) won't drink from happiness


"Lie to me,
Convince me that I've been sick forever."
a part of her is telling her that she has always been like this, but another is telling her that this pain is because of something


"And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better."
the pain will make sense when she hurts no more


"Between myself and my reflection.
I just can't help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love."
she is trying to work out whether her boyfriend/husband preferes her or her reflection


"And I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no more."
she has cut herself to commit suicide and she is lying there bleeding and then she breathes no more

Evanescence – Lithium Lyrics 17 years ago
Lithium- don't want to lock me up inside
lithium- don't want to forget how it feels without
lithium- I want to stay in love with my sorrow
oh but God I want to let it go
she is saying that she loves her sadness, it inspires her, but it also hols her back. she wants to let it go, but she feels she won't be her anymore.

I can't hold on to me
wonder what's wrong with me
she keeps changing who she is and she doesnt know why she loves the pain inside of her so much.

Don't want to let it lay me down this time
she doesnt want it to hold her back again

drown my will to fly
stop making me want my sadness to go

here in the darkness I know myself
when i'm sad, i know who i am

can't break free until I let it go
let me go
i can't be free till i'm happy

this is about someone who is very sad/depressed.

tried to kill my pain
But only brought more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regrets and betrayal
this is sayig how the person was in pain and tried to kill the pain by SI, but that only brought more pain, emotional and physical.

I'm dying
Praying
Bleeding
And screaming

Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

My god, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
this is saying that god was her tourinquet when she was hurting and now she SI her tourniquet is her god. she wants to just have god now, to see the light.

My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied?
Christ
Tourniquet
My suicide

Evanescence – Understanding (Can't Wash It All Away) Lyrics 17 years ago
i think the intro is about us knowing the meaning of life or death. but the reason we think we dont know it is because it is too bad or scary. which is why we are naturally scared of death, we only develope a resistance to that fear through living.

The pain that grips you
-->
Shame we hide our eyes
is saying that our lives are filled with fear and pain and shame, so we hide away.

Please don't be afraid
-->
Screaming in our hearts
i think amy lee is talking as life, maybe it is saying that life has fallen in love with death. and that life is the darkeness and death is the light at the end of the tunnel

Can't wash it all away
-->
Can't scratch it all away
this is the truth that life and death, though they are in love can nevver be together.

at the end when it says 'i'll die if you do' she is saying that she loves him so much that she would end all life just to be with him.

Superchick – Courage Lyrics 18 years ago
this song is about anorexia
"I told another lie today,
and I got through this day,
no one saw through my games."
is like a diary or a prayer.
"Then someone tells me how good I look
and for a moment
For a moment I am happy
But when I'm alone
No one hears me cry"
this is showing how what people say, do, know means so much more to someone with an eating disorder.
The chorus is like a prayer or a letter, saying that she may be better but she still lapses sometimes and she's not ready to do it alone yet.
"I don't know the first time I felt unbeautiful
The day I chose not to eat
What I do know is how I changed my life forever
I know I should know better"
this part is about her not knowing what happened, she doesnt know when she fist felt the need to stop eating, she just knows its changed her life forever.
"There are days when I'm okay
And for a moment
For a moment I find hope
But there are days when I'm not okay
And I need your help
So I'm letting go"
This is about how she is still battling the feelings of "unbeautifulness"
"You should know you're not on your own
These secrets are walls that keep us alone
I don't know when but what I know now
Together we'll make it through somehow"
This is like the moral of the song, i feel, she is saying that the fact she kept it to herself only made things worse.

Blink-182 – Adam's Song Lyrics 18 years ago
This is a song based on a suicide note of a guy called Adam who blink 182 went to school with. He was bullied and neglected by everyone, including his parents and school teachers. When he says 'remember the time that I spilled the cup, of apple juice in the hall, please tell mom this is not her fault' he means it's not the times when she told him off that is why he is going to do this. I find this song very comforting. I know what it is like to want to die because of bullying. ):

Kelly Clarkson – Addicted Lyrics 18 years ago
I always thought this song was about self injury. like she can't stop thinking about doing it until she's doing it. or maybe anorexia, when she says 'It's like I can't breathe, Without you inside of me.'

Bright Eyes – Sunrise, Sunset Lyrics 38 years ago
the end of the song, when he says "where are you Arienette" always reminds me of the end of being john malkovich when he cries that he misses her... i don't know why.... very emotive
