| Elliott Smith – Tomorrow Tomorrow Lyrics

I've got another theory: maybe this song is about the pressures put on him by the record companies to make more music. "Called your failures art" could refer to the fact that he hated his most popular songs, and loved the ones that most people hated. Or maybe he thought that all of his songs were failures. |

Okay, I've got a theory: they are Christians who relate Jesus to a girl in all of their songs, possibly so that they can pass as a "secular" band, or maybe just because they feel like it. Or maybe they're just talking about both. |

I can't figure out if this is a Christian song or if it is about a girlfriend who died. if it was about Christianity, the "Sun holding the moon" line wouldn't make sense. If it were about a girlfriend the "mountains" line and "never fall away" lines wouldn't make much sense. Also a girlfriend wouldn't "come back". The boyfriend would go to the girl. |

"I have a friend, he's mostly made of pain"
It seems as if he starts the song with someone who feels like he doesn't matter and is worthless, then goes through the song with people who think that their lives have some meaning, but then comes to the conclusion that the first guy was right and that it's all pointless.
Depressing. |

| Radiohead – Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors Lyrics

Am I the only person who thinks that the lyrics of this song are dumb but loves it solely for its musical value? I've heard many say that it's a failed experiment, but this song is probably my favorite by Radiohead.
I would say that the lyrics are probably about the choices we make in our lives, but the lyrics don't matter too much to me, I just love the song. |

*Very mild spoiler below, just in case you're super picky about these things
Definitely a connection song between the first and third game. I don't know exactly what it's about since I've only played the third and second, but I'm hoping to play the first as soon as I get the damn disk resurfaced. |

Well, I think it would probably be about losing someone, but I have an odd theory (which has a one out of a million chance of being true) that it may be about a videogame, Silent Hill 2, since I think they sampled "White Noiz", which was one of the songs on the SIlent Hill 2 soundtrack. |

| Death Cab for Cutie – What Sarah Said Lyrics

probably also about what someone named Sarah said while they were waiting for the news on weather or not Cutie was alive. Or maybe Sarah is actually the name of his girlfriend? Anyway, she died in a cab accident. |

You know, the band is called death cab for cutie for a reason. I think the lead singer's girlfriend died in a cab accident, so this is probably one of their many songs about the accident. "No longer running" probably means "No longer alive." "She did not shed a single tear," because she is dead, and "you were finally free." Very sad. |

PUSA rocks. It's not sex. Im sure. Like many people are saying, it is probably about him as a kid (or maybe an adult even) playing in a sandbox or at the beach with a toy car, putting spiders in the passengers seats. PUSA likes making songs about nothing, sort of as a reaction to many songs about love with deep meanings of relationships and such. They just play whatever and have fun doing it. That's why they own. |
