| David Gray – Flame Turns Blue Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
It's actually not a sad song at all. The song is a dream about losing your loved one then waking to realize the true importance of the relationship. A flame has roughly four zones so think of the zone where the flame is blue as the void between two people. Not a physical void but an emotional void or distance. The freight train is the reason behind this void, because the song states "it tears the night in two", night being the union they had, becoming separate and torn apart and thus the flame turns blue. The next morning awake, he writes in his journal that IF he lost her, he'd burn in that void forever, without her. Notice how the dream is dark and sad by the term, leaden sky, yet in the morning its bright and sunny suggesting hope and lessons learned. And in the morning I will sing. |

| Queensrÿche – Anybody Listening? Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I know exactly what this song is about. It's about the internal struggles Chris Degarmo felt about life, fame, the path he took to get there and how to escape. Kind of ironic since he disappeared a few years later. "And if you don't return to sing the song, maybe just as well". That line tops it off, kind of eerie. | |
