| Whitesnake – Straight For The Heart Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think its about him going to a prostitute, and then falling for her. "'Cos I've been hearing about you Everybody says you're front page news Laying it down, all around the town" explains the prostitute part pretty well, as well as "You got the love I dream of The kind that cost so much" but "My heart is in your hand" and "Just cover me with kisses, baby Surrender to my touch" point to him loving her. |

| I think it's about someone realizing he's been in an abusive relationship, and is telling himself he won't let it happen anymore. | |
| Fates Warning – Fata Morgana Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This seems to be about a temptress coming from hell, veiled as a "Maiden of Beauty dressed in Rainbow." Albatross is used as a great burden, as well as a bird, so this would make sense (Isle of fire and albatross). Lemuria is the name of the possible sunken continent, which is also known as Mu or Ry'leh. In the Cthulu Mythos, Ry'leh was where Cthulu, one of the 'Great Old Ones,' was buried. He was supposed to have a cult, and Cthulu is also used to describe a great evil, like the devil. This fits because lemuria is put as a place "Past the golden pillars of the lore to Lemuria." However, Lemuria was also a festival that the Romans used to exorcise demons or ghosts from their homes. This fits the rest of the song better, but it seems to not fit the context of the lyrics. If it does fit, it's a bit of a stretch. |

| I think it's more about how all the women wear a bunch of makeup and fancy clothing, like "dolls." | |
| Guns N' Roses – November Rain Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"where it goes from fret 20 to 15, then 16 on b, then back to 15 then 16. If you know the tab for it you'll know what I'm talking about" You could've just said the outro solo. |

| Guns N' Roses – The Garden Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I'm pretty sure this song is about drugs, like A7X1992 is saying. "Turned into my worst phobia, a crazy man's utopia" Sounds a lot like what happens when someone is on acid. Aren't you supposed to see a bunch of crazy shit, and your phobias are heightened? "You can find it all inside No need to wrestle with your pride" The drugs giving you "everything," ie. euphoria, easing pain, etc. "No you ain't losing your mind You're just in the garden" Reference to hallucinations you experience on some drugs. "They can lead you to yourself" Drugs are often said to have an introspective effect, "leading" you to yourself. "Or you can throw it on the shelf But you know you can look inside For the garden" You can try to give up the drugs, "throwing" them on a "shelf," but you'll always be tempted to get high again. Tyler123 has some good views on the rest of the lyrics. I also view the final solo as kind of representing the bad trip, since its so violent and spastic. |
