The Black Dahlia Murder – A Vulgar Picture Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't know if I'm the only one, but I'm just not hearing some of the things here.
Commonly with bands, the lyrics will be written and printed but in the recording the singer will change a word here and there.
I think that's what happened here, because certain parts of this just don't sound like what's written down, at all.
They're small little corrections here and there, but in the actual recording I hear:

Now the funeral grounds are at last awash
With the blackness of this frigid autumn night
I lurked into the graveyard with pick and spade in tow
This night shall birth forth our reckoning
Hell's jaws, now open wide

A stare to pierce six feet of soil
A love beyond this mortal coil

As though you never left my side,
I hold your stiffened body so close to me
For years I've lived in a dream
Awake, I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride-to-be

I can barely suppress my elation!
My blood is racing as I strike the lid
A quick pry of the casket reveals her body, paralyzed
How long I've waited for this moment,
To thrust my fingers deep inside!

Now you will live the song of the deceased
The ones whose souls will never rest in peace!

The throes of necromantic lust infest my mind
Cries of my precious frozen angel beckon from inside

I feel alive! For once I'm feeling so alive
My skin is crawling,
I'm completed on this resurrection night

This night reveals a morbid truth
Love's bounds post-mortally removed

As though you never left my side,
I hold your stiffened body so close to me
For years I've lived in a dream
Awake, I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride-to-be

In rapture my mind is lured by my own knife
To join this fragile being who sleeps below
The reflection of a razor reveals the moon so perfectly
Along my impatient veins its steel does graze
With the kiss of suicide!

I feel no pain as I lay with my lover and bride
The silk lining now stained with my offering
I embrace the end of my now worthless life

Lil' Wayne – One Night Only Lyrics 17 years ago
The RIGHT lyrics:



[Girl]

I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, you really don't have the time

You've got only night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only
One night only
One night only, that's

[Lil Wayne]

And when they see me, they see three, baby
She marks her calendar
Reschedule every plan
She knows when I'm coming
She's more than a fan
She got my tour dates
She also got a man
But even homie gotta understand
She got...

[Girl]

One night only
One night only

[Lil Wayne]

And no one gon' take it from her
Nothing's gon' make her miss it
And when I'm gone, she'll miss it
But she'll never forget that

[Girl]

One night only
One night only, that's

[Lil Wayne]

Next day, another city
She's never comin' with me
I'm nothin' more than memories
Memories she keep forever
She always dream about me
Wish she could sleep forever
She get her fit together
She get her shit together
After my concert
She wanna get together
I get her on my bus
We chill and sit together
She has no curfew
I can take the bitch wherever
Come off a bit respectful
I'm on a different level
I got her feelin' special
Then she remember she got...

[Girl]

One night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only
One night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only

[Lil Wayne]

But I can make you love me forever
Baby, I can make you love me forever
Yeah

Now all the hoes hate her
The dudes wan' date her
Her nigga saw her leave
She deal with him later
Right now she with the greatest
I'm even homie's favorite
How could he even blame her?
She doin' him a favor
She let that nigga love her
She let that nigga save her
But when I come she let a nigga take her, take her for...

[Girl]

One night only
One night only

[Lil Wayne]

Tell him that shit on roam
That nigga goin' in labor

[Girl]

One night only, that's

[Lil Wayne]

These niggas hate the game
But they can't bite the lay up
Then she go home to him
He sicker than a patient
He waitin' at the table
No breakfast at the table
He ask her where she been
She say "Stop trippin', it was..."

[Girl]

One night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only
One night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only

[Lil Wayne]

But I can make you love me forever
I can make you love me forever

Them older bitches jealous
Say she's a groupie whore
But every women in this world was you before
See, everybody wished upon that superstar
But when it come true, how true you are
You got your...

[Girl]

One night only
One night only

[Lil Wayne]

See, I can't be her man
And she can't be my girl
Oh, but we fuck like it's the end of the world
And we got...

[Girl]

One night only
One night only, that's

[Lil Wayne]

I got a wife she knows
My wife ain't on the road
When she come to my room
She take off all her clothes
Say "Anything goes"
Tomorrow same clothes
We prob'ly order movies
We prob'ly lay together
But we can't stay together
That's when I gotta tell her

[Girl]

I have no doubt that I could love you forever
The only trouble is, you really don't have the time

You've got one night only
One night only, that's
One night only
One night only...

A Perfect Circle – The Noose Lyrics 17 years ago
Okay.
This is what I think, and I'm pretty sure it's right because it's seemed obvious to me since I first heard the song and looked over the lyrics.
There are two major theories here:
1. Someone has been born again into a religion.
2. Someone has recovered from drug or alcohol addiction.

Guys, it's both!
Look at the name of the album. The Thirteenth Step.
That clearly shows a link to recovery from alcohol and/or drug addiction, because of the twelve step programs that are out there.
Let's evaluate the twelve step program. The first step they tell you is to acknowledge that there are higher forces than yourself and, inadvertently, ask you to believe in a God (no matter which one).
It's pretty simple.
Religion and rehab programs are linked.

The conclusion:
Someone goes into a twelve step program with an addiction, and while in there he becomes 'cleansed' through the forces and guidance of a higher power. Then when he comes out, he is sober and born again into grace through the program, but now he looks down on others who are not as 'pure' as he is now. Maynard brings that person back to reality by pretty much saying "Well, you're high and mighty now... but don't forget how you got where you are now. Remember who you were and the people you hurt before you got better. You're not perfect, and you're never going to be completely cleansed because you can't erase what you've done to others."

And there you have it.

The Killers – Midnight Show Lyrics 17 years ago
Okay. I have done a lot of investigation and reading about The Murder Trilogy.
So now, once and for all, I will tell you what it is.
This is the correct information.

The order of the songs is as follows:
1. Leave The Bourbon On The Shelf.
2. Midnight Show.
3. Jenny Was A Friend On Mine.

The story goes like this:
First, in Leave The Bourbon On The Shelf, the speaker tells us of a girl named Jenny, whom he is in love with. She is leaving him and he begs her to stay. But she leaves and he then begins drinking away his sorrows. He later sees her with another man and becomes angry and jealous. He decides to kill her.
Second, in Midnight Show, he takes the girl out, tempting her with promises of a good time. He wants her, but he wants to kill her more. He takes her to a secluded area, but then he starts having second thoughts. He pushes those thoughts away. He kills her, then dumps her body in the ocean. Realizing what he's done, he flees the scene.
Third, in Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine, he is being questioned by the police about Jenny's murder. He gives them a fake story of what happened, hoping to get away. While speaking, he thinks about how he actually killed her, but doesn't say it aloud. One of the cops sees the guilt on his face and knows he did it. It ends with him desperately defending himself, knowing he's been caught.

Tori Amos – Caught A Lite Sneeze Lyrics 17 years ago
"Mister Saint John, just bring your son"
There seems to be a bit of confusion and lack of clarity about that line.
I always thought that excerpt was in reference to how God asked Abraham to sacrifice his only son, Isaac, to him as an offering of his love and devotion to God.
So the first part, "Mister Saint John", I think that the 'Mister Saint' was a sort of sarcastic jab, and 'John' is just a generic name for the man that Tori was addressing.
And then the second part, "just bring your son", was like daring him to sacrifice his son for her, show how much he loves her.

So pretty much, I think that part was like her saying "Well, Mister I'm-So-Great, show me how much you love me, what would you do?"

I could be wrong, but I just think that's what it is.

The White Stripes – Jolene (Dolly Parton cover) Lyrics 18 years ago
This song is so amazing.
I think that when it's live it's better than the recording, but they're both great.
Also, I like this cover better than the original Dolly Parton or any other cover.
Because, when live, you can see that Jack puts SOOO much emotion into it.
He's pretty much crying, and his voice is cracking, and it's beautiful.
In addition, most people don't notice this, but he actually goes higher in the song than Dolly, so that showcases his great range.
I just love this song.
Magical.

Escape the Fate – Cellar Door Lyrics 18 years ago
I think most people read a little too deep into lyrics.
Here's my take on it; it's quite literal.

We walked through the doorway
Heard you calling from the hall
To find you in the bedroom
Not breathing at all
I drug your body to the cellar where we lay
The wax, it melts away
I kiss your face.

[He has walked in and found that the woman he loves has committed suicide. He drags her body into the cellar of the house and he lays down there with it. The wax is candles that he's burning. So, that just shows that he was laying there for a long time because the wax is melting away. And he just holds her and kisses her face because he's trying to sort of bring her back.]

Now we are starting to love you more
Your body's on the canvas
I painted on the floor

[This talks about how now that the woman is gone, everyone is seeing the good about her and they are all loving her more because they didn't realize how much they all cared until she was gone. The body on the canvas is just talking about how he's seeing this all artistically. She's the art, and she's on the canvas that is the floor.]

Now you wait like the drug, like the change
And the pain it goes on for so long
And oh, how it hurts in the worst way now that you're gone
It's so wrong
It's so wrong

[Talking about how the woman used drugs to kill herself. Then he's just saying that his pain is going on for a long time and won't end. And then he just reiterates that he is hurt somewhere deep inside, and he feels a pain that no one should feel.]

If I could take you somewhere
I'd take you to the darkest place
Scatter you in art forms
Admire the whore
Beauty in different ways
Your hands on picture frames
Your eyes in the glass
Wear your face has a mask

[Saying if he could keep the body, he'd go somewhere no one could find them, and he'd disperse her around his house, keeping her alive by using her body parts, then he goes on to say what he would use them for. This could be slightly metaphorical to say he wishes he could keep her around in any way possible.]

Now they are starting to love you more
A gallery of your beauty
No charge at the door

[Restating that people care more about her now that she's gone. Also, the gallery of beauty relates back to how he wants to one day use her body to make art, and there's no charge at the door because no one would realize that her body is actually incorporated into these art pieces in his home.]

And down below
Your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control
Your face is pale, your body's cold
And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes
I lost control
Your face is pale, your body's cold

[Talking about how down in the cellar, the rest of her body, which he hasn't used for anything or moved yet, is laying there and the blood is drying and her eyes are vacant and she's cold and pale, meaning she's been laying there for a while and is looking worse and worse.]


This song is, all in all, very very morbid and sick, but romantic in a creepy way, which I think they were probably going for.
The melody is amazing and I love this band so much.
Saw them at Warped Tour and lost my voice form screaming. :)

Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová – The Hill Lyrics 18 years ago
These are the right lyrics:

Walking up the hill tonight and you have closed your eyes.
I wish I didn't have to make all those mistakes and be wise.
Please try to be patient and know that I'm still learning.
I'm sorry that you have to see the strength inside me burning.

Where are you, my angel, now?
Don't you see me crying?
And I know that you can't do it all, but you can't say I'm not trying.
I'm on my knees in front of him, but he doesn't seem to see me.
With all his troubles on his mind he's looking right through me.
And I'm letting myself down by satisfying you,
And I wish that you could see I have my troubles, too.

Looking at you sleeping, I'm with the man I know.
And I'm sitting here weeping while the hours pass so slow.
And I know that in the morning I have to let you go.
And you'll be just a man once I used to know.
Before these past few days someone I don't recognize.
This isn't all my fault.
When will you realize?

Looking at you leaving, I'm looking for a sign.

Maroon 5 – Wake Up Call Lyrics 18 years ago
I LOVE this song.
It's one of my favorites songs at the moment.
Maroon 5 is so amazing.
And Adam is just a whole league of his own.

The song meaning to me is very obvious,
Except that I agree with lauraelizabeth.
I think that he was being sarcastic, not really regretting shooting him.
He regrets not finishing him off: "Is his heart still beating?"
So basically, this song's just complete and utter rage and scorn and sweet revenge.
I love it. :]
