Glassjaw – Two Tabs of Mescaline Lyrics 12 years ago
The song is about selling yourself out to be accepted by the masses. He references KQED which was a broadcasting station in san diego. This in conjunction with the bulimia reference, and "knowing you fit in" as well as the sexual reference "salting the back of a snail" all aim towards someone selling out who they are to fit in with what they see on tv, much like Ray Cappo and the sraightedge movement.

Blink-182 – Stockholm Syndrome Lyrics 17 years ago
i find it so weird how if most of the lyrics on this cd were written after the hiatus then they could all pretty much sound like they are about the breakup, haha

(+44) – When Your Heart Stops Beating Lyrics 17 years ago
i dont know where it was but i rember reading an interview with tom delonge where he said something along the lines of AVA will make your heart stop beating, or somethign similar. so i think this is about the blink breakup and how the media has blown it way out of proportion.


and now i cant, stop, thinking about it (the media/tom wont let him move on)

all you people at the top dont know nothing about it (the media is spinning the story in the wrong direction)

and, we dont give a fuck what the price is
so just leave us to our own devices
and we'll leave you alone (he dosent care if the fans are upset about the breakup, just let them play their music)

ill be there when your heart stops beating
ill be there when your last breath is taken away (reference to a quote by tom delonge)

in the dark when theres no one listening (how tom said to listen to ava with the lights off)

in the times when we both get carried away(this breakup stuff has gotten way out of hand)

Circa Survive – Wish Resign Lyrics 18 years ago
it is about the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" watch the movie and read the lyrics and you'll see the connection.

"what brought you back to this place
i knew you'd never learn
i knew you'd never"

is about how at the end of the movie they went back to montauk and started the whole cycle over again.

Circa Survive – The Difference Between Medicine and Poison Is in the Dose (Album) Lyrics 18 years ago
i agree entirely with 1021 , its obviously about writer's block.

I think the line "let repetition save me" right before the chorus and the lines "move one inch at a time
and you'll be just fine
move one inch at a time and you'll find
they pull me in but accomplishments are transient
they pull me in but accomplishments are transient"

witch are all repeated lines, that shows him just giving in to what he said in the first verse "would it be easy to repeat the first line?" pretty much asking him self if he should just take the easy way out.
