| The Beatles – Carry That Weight Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
To me, this is about some kind of relationship that went bad. The narrator realizes he screwed up the relationship and now that he realizes how much he misses the girl, he has this deep feeling of regret that he's going to carry for a long time (the weight). Instead of her sharing his pillow, now he just gives her invitations which she rejects. The last line is my favorite. I think the narrator has tried to move on with his life and is going out to parties and whatnot, but no matter how much fun he is having at the celebrations, the memory of the girl keeps haunting him because he knows he will never get her back even though he needs her. He's gonna carry that weight a long time. |

| Coldplay – Viva la Vida Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
well, first off, I'm really impressed by this song. I absolutely love it...the instrumentals are amazing and Chris Martin's voice and vocal melodies are perfect. The first verse is talking about a decline from wealth and fame to a nobody. I've been trying to figure out what the relevance of this is, but no ideas yet. In the second verse, his mindset seems to have changed and he's accepted his lower status and now is questioning, "who would ever wanna be king?" Well, he used to be the King and now that he sees what it looks like from an outsider's perspective, he realizes that he's glad to have left it behind. I have no idea about the chorus. Hopefully someone else has some ideas. |

I think this is about a someone who starts to find out that they have deeper feelings for one of their friends than they had thought. "I have no problems Dipping in my feet But the trouble comes when I have to jump." I think this refers to the fact that the person has no trouble flirting and playing around with their friend, but to "jump" all the way in, or to tell them how they really feel (I love you more than that), is too much. this is a beautiful song. |
