| The Bravery – Time Won't Let Me Go Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
To me, this song is about not experiencing life to it's fullest... "Whenever I look back On the best days of my life I think I saw them all on T.V." Like he spent his childhood watching other people live a life that he wanted himself, or wants himself. "If you give me back those years, I'd do it all better I swear", sounds like he has no exciting memories to look back on and he regrets not having more fun when he was younger... At least that's what the song means to me... The first time I heard this song I couldn't help but think of my own life... I spent my high school days locked away in my bedroom watching movies and playing video games, I didn't go out with my friends I didn't do all the stuff that so many kids my age were doing. If anyone ever invited me somewhere I would shrug it off and say 'no, that's alright...'. Until people stopped inviting me... I spent so much of my college days the exact same way, locked away in my dorm room watching movies, playing games, or listening to music... I look back on my life and I try to reflect on my most cherished memories and most of them have happened in recent years... Some days I find myself feeling nostalgic, though I don't have much to feel nostalgic about. Which to me, feels like the line "I am so homesick now for, Someplace I will never be"... "All these precious moments you promised me would come in time, so where was I when I missed mine?", when I was in high school, the phrase "these are the best days of your lives!" was thrown around a bit, but I didn't do anything to make them the "best days of my life", and I kind of regret that, and sometimes I wish I could go back and change that, have more fun be more social... The same was said of college, "You'll love it! It's better than high school! It's really where you're going to meet the friends you'll keep... Blah blah blah." I wish I could go back and be more social, not be the guy that never left his room... It's just about a sea of regrets... But this is getting really redundant and I apologize, so I will leave it with this... I wish I could go back and live life and have really cool stories to tell my children someday, but I'll never be able to. That's fine... Because though I wish I could change the past, I wouldn't want to risk losing my present. I love my wife, and the life we lead, and I look forward to the day we have children. I only hope the do more than I did. I hope they never get the same meaning from this song as me... |

| Roddy Woomble – Play Me Something Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| To me it's not so much about death, or religion, so much as it is about beginning a new chapter of his life. It makes me think of moving on, starting a new life with a new set of guidelines and a new set of circumstances. That just because this chapter is "ending" a new one is "beginning". Like a child growing up and leaving the nest. Whether it's from the perspective of the growing child leaving home, or the eyes of the parent waving goodbye to a person they love, making room for the person they've suddenly become. It's bittersweet to me, and triggers a strong sense of nostalgia every time I listen to it. As the child that's grown and left the nest to move on to the next big thing, it's about leaving behind one life in exchange for a new one... I think I'm just talking in circles so I'll just leave it at that. | |

| I love this song! It's so damned catchy! I hated Bush and his policies... I don't know why but it's actually comforting and nice to know it's a world wide hatred... Not just here in the states.lol | |

| VAST – Dedicate (A Place For Me) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| It means to me that he was in love with someone that was in love with someone else. He loved her madly and she felt the same but she chose the other man over him. Memories of the lost affair remain eventhough he wants to forget... That's what it means to me. | |
