| Fugazi – Waiting Room Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I like Pilaf's idea. I think this song is about people jumping the gun, learning from others mistakes and making decisions. It's funny - I've always compared being agnostic to sitting in a waiting room. Some of 'em keep waiting forever, and others get tired of waiting. |

| New Order – Ceremony Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song has always reminded me of the end of a love affair. I feel like it's about everyone outside the relationship criticizing it and gossiping about their deviance. And it always seemed to me that the mistress couldn't handle their ridicule any longer, and therefore broke it off. I think "Ceremony" just represents the death of their fling. The "funeral", and the end just makes me feel like he's saying his love for her will continue to grow forever. It only makes sense in certain parts of the song, so I doubt that's was Ian's true intention. But it would make sense, I guess, since he supposedly had an affair. |

| The Stills – In the Beginning Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I don't think this is about a relationship at all, though anyone can apply their own meaning. I just see no sign what-so-ever of it having to do anything with an ex-lover. I think that this song is mostly about life. "How did this start? And where did we begin In a ball of fire And stars and suns And that brings me here, now" I think this lyric is referring to how earth was created and how humans gradually came to be. I love how bizarre it is that they go from describing the logic of it all to describing a human's feelings and emotions, which to us are so irrelevant to science. It actually reminds me of another Stills lyric: "Logic will break your heart forever, be brave." |

| The Stills – Lola Stars and Stripes Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song makes me think of WWII. I don't know if that was the intended feel of the song, but I really couldn't imagine them having any other intention with this song. I think Lola is a middle class girl of the 40's who wants to be a movie star and forget her past. |

| mewithoutYou – Silencer Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| My view, of course it could be a misinterpretation of Aaron Weiss' true intent, is that this song is party about an unfaithful significant other who does not share his belief in God and perhaps even mocks his. I think he sees her as bitter, fake, and angry at God, and while he's dying, he realizes he could never "help" her. Maybe he couldn't even love her, as badly as he may have wanted to, because she denied the most significant thing in his life or she simply turned her back to his love with her treacherous ways. Either way, he sounds like a very broken man in this song; however, it seems his faith is the only thing that stayed intact. | |
