Colbie Caillat – One Fine Wire Lyrics 17 years ago
I'm suprised its about stage fright because the simplicity of the lyrics just make it so deep, it can be applied into any situation.

When I heard the song for the first time I felt so crushed. It's not like I paid any attention to the lyrics, but it was the melody that got to me; despite its 'cheery' sounding tune, I don't know why it just sounds the exact opposite to me. It's when I decided to download the song and read the lyrics that I just started to cry.

I love the words she chose because, to me, they just perfectly describe my life. Once upon a time, everything in my life was just so fine and so great; "I remember a time my balance was fine and I was just walking on one fine wire." Then so many horrible changes happened in my life, its like all my "balance" got chucked out the window. Whenever I hear this song I just want to cry and scream because this is just my theme song.

Jeff Buckley – Everybody Here Wants You Lyrics 17 years ago
why did you die?

everytime I hear this song I can't help but break down and cry. One of the most romantic, soulful, and sexiest people on the face of the earth - and he's gone forever. The world really is colder without him.

I think his girl was so lucky that he wrote this song just for her; I mean, from all his sceptic songs to this master piece? She should feel flattered that he changed his view completely because of her.

I agree with whoever it was that said the way Buckley sings this song can't help but make you feel like he's singing this song just for you. Plus, it makes the song all the sadder when you think of it in that sense because it's like having a close friend bid you farewell forever.

This is the perfect song to make love to. Some guy seduced me at this party with this song; it was the most beautiful one night stand that tops off all of my past experiences. I swear, after that night I can never bring myself to love another guy or so much as have sex with anyone again. It was like I just had that one perfect moment, and nothing can ever compare to it again.

This song means a lot to me I swear. I break down and cry to this song because it reminds me so perfectly of this one moment I had with a complete stranger; nobody can ever top him now, and no 'intimate' moment can ever compare.

It's a bit sad but I suppose this song has made me lose all interest in dating anyone; even for the long-term. I want that guy again...it's kinda sad that we barely even know each other's names. I've asked around so much, but nobody really knows who this mystery man was - maybe because he seems a bit older than the rest of us, but still...how else did he manage to come to the party? *sighs*

I guess we weren't meant to be. I just wish my heart would face the facts, and move on. Everyone who just approaches me seems like a real 'freak' to be frank. It's amazing how one song, played at the right moment, can just change your perception on everything.

It's not milk. Listen to Explosion as he sings; it's very clear that he says now! I don't get how people think he said milk...

Better Than Ezra – Overcome Lyrics 17 years ago
I like mypianofire's take on it being about virginity. It sounds really interesting when she says it like that.

Still, it's like wolf cub said. You feel overcome when you listen to this song, and I think leelee87 is spot on about the meaning of the song; experience.

We all come out of whatever horrible experience "a little bit wiser, a little bit sadder, a little bit less you might have guessed" because to me, the latter part suggests how experiences can change a person. Thus he might mean through each experience he feels his original personality becoming less and less; it could be a good thing, or a bad thing, like leelee said.

Then again the suggestion of love throughout the lyrics doesn't exactly tie in with the above ideas I've mentioned, which is why I think mypian's opinion is interesting about the song being about virginity. Or, it could be about falling for someone; when we fall for somebody, we feel so changed by them, we're barely the same person we were at the start, so in a way we're "overcome". If you interpret it as falling for somebody then so much of the song makes sense, especially the part where he goes "come on and save me" which seems to suggest he wants her assurance that she does love him, which will save him from his downward spiral.

Plus, it also suits heart ache. Again we completely change when we have our hearts broken by a loved one. Either he did something to upset her, or she did something to upset him, but the bottom line is that he realizes he still loves her either way despite what they've been through.

Augustana – Boston Lyrics 17 years ago
We've all been through this stage where we just badly want to leave our current situations, and start a new life where we have no worries, and no weight of the world on our shoulders.

Also the beginning verse describes my life everyday; red eyed and in tears, I feel like I'm living in another world since all around everyone seems so carefree and I'm the only with a fake smile on my face. The worst thing is that everyone looks at me and assumes I'm such a happy person. Well guess what? I'm not, and I hate that nobody could accept the real miserable me because misery does not attract company, no matter what the old saying may say.

The line that gets me the most has to be this:
"When flowers gaze at you
They’re not the only ones
Who cry when they see you"

Even when I just simply read it or sing it softly to myself I have to burst into tears. There's something about this line that just gets to me. Maybe its give you hope that there's somebody who does love you out there that does see your pain? Or maybe it's false hope; you wish there was somebody there who could see your pain, or it could suggest someone untouchable and unreachable like an angel or a deceased loved one watching over you, and they feel real helpless because they can't help you out no matter how much they'd like to?

I live in such a small town, everyone knows my name, it's horrible. We all know one another here, it sucks. And people gossip like wildfire here, it just makes me hate living life because of frumps like the rest of them. That's why I'd give just about anything to run away to somewhere, some place, where no one knows my name; with friends like these who needs enemies.

It's like someone said; you think you've known someone your whole life, and it turns out you haven't. They don't know a thing or two about your own life, and it's a crap feeling to endure.

Augustana – Boston Lyrics 17 years ago
I first heard this song when I'd gone over to my friends. At the time she had a massive argument with her boyfriend and she was in one of her depressed moods. Naturally that meant for her to download miserable songs that suited her situation, so I decided to look through her music playlist and tease her about any songs that were cheesy. After going through a few I came across this one. To be honest when I read the title, I instantly assumed the song had to be some sort of a joke.

By the time she came back home she saw in me in tears just listening to song. I was blown away when I heard this. I still cry whenever I listen to these lyrics. The song is melancholically beautiful, I can easily recognize it when I just hear the beginning keys of the piano at the start.

What I love about this song is that can be applied for any situation; whether a falling out in a relationship, an arugment with a loved one [family or friends], or just life in general [like it is with me]. You see I suffer from Clinical Depression and when I heard these lyrics I was taken in by its deep meaning.

When I listen to this song I always picture myself as the girl, singing this song to the world in general; to the people I knew in my life, and I feel like this is a message to God who I feel frankly doesn't give two shits about my shitass life: "you don't know me, you don't even care - you don't know me, you don't wear my chains"

About her going to Boston and leaving California is exactly my life. Things are so horrible here, I just want to leave the place I'm in, and just run away to Spain and live there forever; exactly described in the last three verses where no one knows my name, I think I'll start a new life, I think I'm just tired, I think I'll start it over, and the rest of the lines that follow
