Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová – Falling Slowly Lyrics 17 years ago
to me this song is like a sequence of events in a relationship that almost happened

"I don't know you
but I want you
all the more for that"

the beginning - he sees her and wants her, the mystery of not really knowing her adds to the desire

"words fall through me
and always fool me
and I can't react"

they don't speak. he can't talk to her because he's nervous and love-struck/lust-struck.

"games that never amount
to more than they're meant
will play themselves out"

this is where they start to communicate... they make eye contact and send each other signals that they might like each other, all without speaking. however, the games end and it's too late ("played themselves out") for whatever reason. maybe she got a boyfriend or she couldn't see him anymore.

"take this sinking boat
and point it home
we've still got time"

so their chance seems to be slipping away ("sinking boat") due to whatever happened. but he knows that life goes on and it might work out eventually ("we've still got time").

"raise your hopeful voice
you had the choice
you've made it now"

she had a choice to raise her voice and talk to him, but she didn't. she made the choice not to, so the chance slipped away. the boat is sinking if you will.

passed that point is kind of going into more detail/summarizing what has happened:

"falling slowly
eyes that know me
and I can't go back"

the eye contact and games they played got him hooked.

"wounds that take me
and erase me
and I'm painted black"

once she was gone he got depressed.

"well you have suffered enough
and warred with yourself
it's time that you've won"

you have to understand that the games are kind of painful because your emotions go so high and so low depending on how the other reacts to what you do. it's really stressful.. "warred with yourself" represents it. "it's time that you won" is him saying that he's accepting her departure.

Sublime – Jailhouse Lyrics 18 years ago
'89 vision is NOT a sexual position.

in this song, the 1989 vision refers to one of the first rap albums (i can't think of the artist... you could search it online) who heavily influenced Brad, and so the 1989 comes from that rap artist, it's about anti-violence in inner-city black communities.
