The Airborne Toxic Event – All I Ever Wanted Lyrics 16 years ago
Correct lyrics as well:

I can only say these things to you when youre sleeping
I hear the hum from the wires and the sounds of the morning creep in
So I lie awake and I hope that you cant hear me

I can tell that youre so scared of turning into your mother
I feel myself turn into my father
So we can lie to each other like they do and say were still happy
I guess its easy when youre young and you know you still want it so badly

I turn over again and I feel my heart beating faster
I stare out the window and I think that I might scream

I can tell you that youre all I ever wanted, dear
And I still utter every word as I hold you near
But I shudder when I think that we might not be here forever, forever, forever

And then we find ourselves alone at the station
And you smile like a child and you told me you want to be taken
I never thought youd were the kind of girl that would say that
And you suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my breast
Id be lying if I said that I didnt find it exciting
Your eyes all wet and your face so warm and inviting

I can tell you that youre all I ever wanted, dear
And I utter every word as I hold you near
But I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever

Id tell you that Im always gonna love you like some pristine doll that you hold at night
Id be lying
Love is defying

And all I could think is that there must be some kind of rebellion
To all these fears like soldiers and we slay them.

So I can tell you that youre all I ever wanted, dear
I still feel you breathing while youre sleeping here
And you wake and ask me if I thought Id be here forever, forever, forever

Your face all twisted and your eyes a lie
I want to tell you I dont see you when you cry at night
But Id be lying
Love is defying
Were slowly dying


All the sound qualities are bad, so these proally arent 100 percent either.

The Airborne Toxic Event – All I Ever Wanted Lyrics 16 years ago
I saw this song performed live, and I cried during it.
It's such an emotional song I'm sure alot of people can relate too.
When I saw them in concert, I was with my boyfriend with who we were having some relationship problems.
And this song just hit home.
It's a very very very good song.

It's basically just talking about a young couple that really isnt working but they try to hold onto the relationship anyways.

Spitalfield – I Can't Hear You Lyrics 17 years ago
This is my favorite song by them.

I think they had some issues before the relationship started, but the girl was like, oh its ok, dont worry. But they never adressed the problem. But then she got sick of it, and is giving him up suddenly for a better life ('you turn your back on me for a picket fence'). He's clearly upset.

Ace Enders – Reaction Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song, just like every other song by Ace Enders.

Its apparently about a relationship that is ending and the girl really wants it to end, but he doesnt really want it too.

Fall Out Boy – Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet Lyrics 17 years ago
So for my english class we had to pick a song or poem and interpert it. Like we had to write an interpertive essay discussing all the literay elements and overall what it means and then we had to do a dramatic reading.

So I chose this song, cause its my favorite song ever by Fall Out Boy, and because I knew it'd be a good challenge to dissect. And all of your comments helped soooo much. You guys picked out a lot of things I didn't pick up on.

Whoever said the Jimmy Cricket thing is awesome, I totally get how that works.

Thanks everyone :D

Jack's Mannequin – Holiday From Real Lyrics 17 years ago
Almost the entire song is being sarcastic.
It sounds like hes living the typical glamorous so cal life, and hes trying not to dissapoint his friends, so hes telling them how great it is, even when its not.

Jack's Mannequin – I'm Ready Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is about him maybe trying to hold onto a relationship thats unraveling. "With every word you say, make me believe
That I won't feel your tires on the street"
But stuff like this seems to happen all the time
"And today was a day just like any other"

And hes trying to move on with his life, so hes asking her to not call or come back, because if she does, his progress of moving on from her will shatter.

I think the talking part is him just like trying to take it day by day and how life has become so simple and repetitive since they broke up and hes sorta irratited, as I kinda hear when he says 'when did society decide we have to wash a t-shirt after every indivual use, if its not dirty im gonna wear it.'
and then he realizes that his life right now is sounding so cliche as hes going through his breakup.


that proally didnt make much sense, but it did in my head if you know what im sayin.

Jack's Mannequin – Caves Lyrics 17 years ago
I disagree with a lot of you, I think the melody goes with the song great.

My moms a nurse, and she told me compazine is a drug they sometimes give to chemo patients. And some of the side effects include blurred vision and make you a little out of it.

But this song is def. him talking about his cancer and how he survived.
duh.
haha. :]

Jack's Mannequin – Hammers And Strings (A Lullaby) Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is pretty much my all time favorite song by Jack's Mannequin, or anything that Andrew has done. I can relate to it so well.
I think the first part of the chorus up until 'I will write you a lullaby' is still his friend talking.
With that being said, here is my take on the song.

I dont think they were love interests, maybe just very good friends. And this girl has had some mental illness, and things are getting harder for her. And he was her support when he was there, so she begins to miss him, and calls him up, and things are getting worse with her. And she cant really trust anyone any more, because her life is probably filled with doctors and pills. (I know, I have chronic depression.) So she wants Andrew to write her a song that means something, and that is maybe soothing, because she is having a hardtime sleeping, probably from her problems. So Andrew tells her he will write her a lullaby.

Maybe a few weeks later, she calls him back, telling him how things are getting worse for her. And that she is being put on medication, even though she knows she really doesnt need it, life is just tough for her, and shes lost her will for life, and even though she doesnt need them, she keeps taking them. And she isn't sure why.

Overall, I think this song is a really sweet song, of Andrew trying to help a friend through a hard time.

The parts that really get me are:
"Andy, the doctors
Prescribed me the pills.
But I know I'm not crazy.
I just lost my will.
So why am I, why am I
Taking them still?"

and

To the sleepless, this is my reply:
I will write you a lullaby,


sorry for the length.
i had a lot to say.

Jack's Mannequin – Orphans Lyrics 17 years ago
I agree with suckyourpitydownx.

It's about a girl he knows about to commit suicide, and hes trying to race to get to her before she does.

"Patterns in traffic
They sound just like my heart
Race in the dark
In time to catch you"

And the reason she is going to kill herself is because she tries to believe shes alone in her life, when she really isnt. Like shes trying to make her life a tragedy even though its perfectly okay.

"No one should let you
Go wandering off into the night
You're not an orphan."

And even in his best attempts to save her, he's too late.
"I never thought the day would come
(you're not an orphan)
They tell me that you've finally run
(you're not an orphan)
I guess you always said you would someday
(you're not an orphan)"

So yep.
My thoughts.

Train – Drops of Jupiter Lyrics 17 years ago
We had to analyze this song in english class.
To me, this is what this song means:

They were two best friends growing up in a small town. They fell in love, and dated. But she always wanted something bigger and better then the small town, and then decided to leave for a life of glitz and glamour in the big city.

When she comes back, she tries to act like everythings okay, and shes happy, but the way she walks and her demanor says something else
'She acts like summer but walks like rain'

Even though shes now big on the social scene and high up, she still struggles with the part of her maybe redneck low class small town self.
'She checks out mozart while she does tae bo'

And her best friend wants to know if the life shes living now really is everything it was cracked up to be, and did she fall for some rich prep boy he hasent experienced life like he has, and for her to consider, would she really be who she is today if it werent for him and their memories together?
'did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded and that heaven is overrated?
tell me did you fall for a shooting star
one without a permanent scar
and did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there?

...

can you imagine no love, pride, deep fried chicken
your best friend always sticking up fro you even when I know your wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance, five hour phone conversation
The best soy latte you ever had...and me"

Breaking Benjamin – Simple Design Lyrics 18 years ago
I think this song is about a guy who just loves to party, but his girlfriend or a girl that really likes him just wants to settle down and just have him love her and only her, but hes young, and he just wants to have a good time, hookups, and 'live it up, while falling from grace'
