The Decemberists – Lake Song Lyrics 11 years ago
To me the song is about looking back at a time/experience/friendship/love in your life and having a different appreciation for it.
"I wrote it down and threw it all away/And never gave a thought to what I'd paid"

My favorite part about the lyrics are that it's clear Colin had an experience of his own in mind, but left it open for the listener to relate it to their own.

Essential Tremors is one of my favorite album names. You can't help but move.

TV on the Radio – Keep Your Heart Lyrics 14 years ago
In the dark of the night I found
Without my love, my love,
these words are not a bit profound,
if it's just another cheap line flung.

Outside ecstatic love,
what did we think we'd find?
Over that broken road,
out past the land mines.

I'm gonna keep your heart
I'm gonna keep your heart.
With the world all falling apart,
I'm gonna keep your heart.

Can I coax it out its shell
Brush the dust off
Get its wings on
In this little bell
We will also feel the singing, oh

Shine on, light of love
On all these bruises and scars
Ruins in every less
But it can't cancel out the stars

Dropped all your clothes and life
Wonder who won mine
Kneeling above this playful body
Teach Superman to fly

How'm I gonna keep your heart?
How'm I gonna keep your heart?
If the world all falls apart
How'm I gonna keep your heart?

Time alone will tell
If you're the kind who keeps the veil on
Biding time will tell us
When and if to sail on

All these blues I have cried
Seem to have come undone
Tried all the new designs
Still ended up in love

Still we're kind of shy
You've nothing to be ashamed of
Though its hard to tell
If I'll ever feel the same love

I'm gonna keep your heart
I'm gonna keep your heart
If the world all falls apart
Still, I'm gonna keep your heart

TV on the Radio – Blind Lyrics 14 years ago
In a few live versions, they add in a part at the end with these lyrics:

Love me forever, maybe you never.
God, I was struck blind.
My heart stopped, my jaw dropped.
I lost my mind, maybe forever. Maybe you never.
God, I was struck blind.
