Augustana – Coffee and Cigarettes Lyrics	16 years ago
This song is def about seasonal affective disorder. I too suffer from it, and everything just fits. Ofc it could be interpreted in many different ways, but because he sings "I know this time of year ain't right for you", it's like he sings to someone that gets depressed at a certain time of the year.. Love it.

Radiohead – House of Cards Lyrics	17 years ago
Sounds to me like he's interested in a woman, and he wants her to forget about her "perfect life", the house of cards, with her husband and be with him instead. Also, could sound like he wants her to come swinging you know, with the "throw your kees in the bowl and kiss your husband goodnight"-part..

Muse – Time Is Running Out Lyrics

17 years ago

I think everyone can relate to this in different ways; if they're addicted to either a person or drugs, it fits. It sounds like he's in a relationship with a manipulative girl that's in a way holding on to him as hard as she can, while she's being an ass to him; ignoring him and sort of smothering him, as well as their relationship. He knows she's no good form, but he's do addicted so he sort of stands up to her, saying he won't let her smother the relationship.

Ryan Adams – City Rain, City Streets Lyrics

17 years ago

Mygod, everytime i hear the phrase "I fucked you over a million times", it really gets to me. Sounds to me like he can't believe she's gone. Just the part where he sais "I fucked you over a million times, and you died, you really died". Like one moment they're having sex (being a normal couple with no worries), everything's gonna be okay, and the next, she's dead. And he really didn't expect that to happen, like he always thought she was gonna get well...

Ryan Adams – I See Monsters Lyrics

17 years ago

I agree with absurd87. To me, this is ason about depression, love and drugs. He and his girlfriend are both junkies, they've just got their fix, and now he's watching her as she sleeps. The colours and people screaming are hallucinations caused by the drugs. And as he lays there, he thinks about how much he loves her, and how much he wants to overcome his depression because of her, but it's just not enough. "Still I see monsters" - the depression is continual, regardless of how much he tries to defeat it.

Augustana – Coffee and Cigarettes Lyrics	17 years ago
This song is to me about Seasonal Affective Disorder. As everyone else says, I think it's a man with a girfriend that has SAD. It all fits, the pills, the weight loss, the "time of year" that's not right for her. And the change between "With you" and "But you" also tells me that no matter how hard he tries to make life easier for her, she doesn't get better, and he gives up.

Against Me! – 8 Full Hours of Sleep Lyrics	17 years ago
Skycmefalling has a point. The idea of a better world is clearly a main theme in this text . I also hear "life goes on, no matter what happens, there will be a day tomorrow, and the rest of the world will eventually move on" when I listen to this song. Beautiful.

Jordin Sparks – No Air Lyrics	17 years ago
I too agree with elise.bby. I think there are many different ways to understand this song. This song totaly explains how I feel right now, when I read the lyrics it was as if every single word was written by myself. My boyfriend just recently moved, and it hurts so bad coz, I need him just as much as I need air to live. I totaly get this song, it's absolutely heartbreaking.

Against Me! – White People for Peace Lyrics

-aj-: I totaly agree on your thought of how the leaders should settle it, without sending thousands of innocent soldiers to war to kill eachother. As for the song: I'm writing about it in a task right now, and I went to songmeanings.net to get some aspects on it, and I have to say I agree with WorldInferno. I think this song really shows how ironic the whole war is. The white people started it, and now the white people prays and beggs for it to end, but still, they wont pull out their troops from Iraq.
