| Sparklehorse – Sunshine Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| If you're a person who has difficulty with change, this will hit a soft spot, because it reminds you that life continues on and you can't possibly keep all of your past memories of pain and love and joy that are precious to you and you've collected over your life. Life and the things in life that come to pass at times are heavy or alot comes to you at once, and one day, you look up and realize things have changed because you're trying to hard to hold on to past things that you don't realize what has come to pass already. ...Then you slow down at a point and realize you forgot about precious memories or hurtful things that you wanted to hold on to in sense of the feelings they gave you, but now and again, it will continue to happen. It is painful, even though they are mere feelings and thoughts, mental, emotional souvenirs. If you're like me, you have certain spots, or areas you visit more than once when you have been hit by a memory or feeling and you want to wind down, and this area/spot you continue to come back to, reminds you of so much. Depressing but sometime it's the only way to think clearly or get peace when you need to sort out thoughts, situations. | |
| Hum – Diffuse Lyrics | 16 years ago |

This is a subtle devastating song. I would have trouble explaining that to anyone who doesn't immediately feel this. This song is the perfect "Ending", but hopeful, and also with the possibility of a new beautiful story. You feel a warmth after hearing it, that's buried under something in you. "and i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, i'll wait, and i'll wait on you" |

Many couldn't understand the pain of this song and situation if you've never been in it. Beautiful pain undoubtedly. You continue to hurt yourself by staying invovled and connected, because you're scared of the thought and pain of being without the person, but you know for things things to get better for your own emotional health and well-being, you have to cut ties, and while you are with them, you want so badly to hurt them how they've hurt you unintentionally, but you know that is not what you want to do, you simply want them to feel the pain you do that is all emotion. "...Keeping me from killing you". I fell in love with a straight guy named Evan and the feeling was mutual, it's diffcult to imagine the emotion, and pain once it was interrupted, him wanting to continue being friends and the realization that I will never have what I had with him again if we decided to do that, so you continue to hurt if you remain associated. You have to end it...it was a struggle. This song reminds me of everything. |

I enjoy trusty's interpretation. It add depth the the song in that instance. Although, I gathered when I first heard it that it was from a Womans stand point because I know of others groups who have done the same and I am probably used to it by now. For instance, the lead male singer from Black Kids, singing "I'm Not Gonna Teach Him How To Dance With You". In the song, he refers to himself as a girl in this instance. Beautiful song & video though, and I still prefer trusty's view, but with songs such as these and ambiguous, that is the beauty of it. |

The meaning in this song is obvious, and the Beauty is simple. I find this song so moving, musically and vocally. |

I cannot believe no-one has written their thoughts on this song, though it has not been given much publicity and that is perfectly fine with me. This song is too beautiful to be killed through over play on radio stations. Keep in mind, songs are meant to relate to you. If this song did not hit you hard, do not worry, it just does not relate yet, but if you are here, reading these lyrics, I am sure it gets to you somehow. I want to do this song Justice and the feeling they attempt to portray, because it is hitting my heart right now, but i'm not one who has ever been able to exactly express a feeling in words. I "know", not believe, that this song means more than one thing. One in relation to people personally, and the other relating to the world as a whole. It could have more meanings as well, it is just that these two hit close to my heart at once. I think of it as: 1.Two people connected(in a way that relates to you), wanting to get away from a "bad place" (to me the World). 2.One man walking through a familiar place but does not want to be there because it hurts and is disappointing. 3.Him being the world or a representative form of the World, singing out to the people. The song is Deep, but self-explanatory and to the point. -Is anyone Alert? Is anyone even here? -Brought to the knees by the absence of something you thought you needed and have not been without all your life, now in the process to be made to come out stronger and for the better through being starved of the negative substance that has been keeping you going. But still, those who have not yet changed, the angry and sour ones, are aware of the Higher power/the one who can bring them to their knees as well. Still none are obedient, nor do they feel remorse for anything they have done. -So, I wait for a new beginning/rise/start to hold good memories again of better times, rather than holding onto the old ones that are getting more difficult to keep. (Because where he is right now, there is no good, more of turmoil/depression/bad times, something along those lines) He is asking again, but now more personally, are YOU awake yet, (also speaking to the person he is with, and to all people), to be on guard and watchful? Do not fall victim to the way things are, in relation to discord, Disagreement and party strife(quarrels and fights). Meaning do not think the way things are is the way you are supposed to be as well. Because the effects of not caring, beckons/calls on the higher beings. -I wait for a new beginning for this world to hold better memories than the ones/world around. (But he cuts himself off due to the pain and disgust of the same old thing/memories) He holds his self back from saying it And declares that he just feels the same. He searches and almost pleads to find something he still likes/loves about this place he is in and wants to find a reason to stay, and to want to be there. He does not want anyone to forget what the thought of good things or the person you love, makes go away, which is the pain. Although i've done this, I know I have not done it justice. With a song like this, even if you do not understand it, and just listen to it, you know what it means within yourself, you can feel it and that is all you need. No one can take that true meaning from you. [Definition side notes] Acedia is a latin word literally meaning "absence of caring" (I had to look this up. It did not hurt my pride to, as I said, the song is fairly Deep with the way it is worded and the beautiful words chosen, so this one stumped me) :-) Apon Que Vive. Now, I am not sure it sounds exactly like this is what he says, but I am pretty sure it is close to it. Apon I am assuming is an older form of saying "Upon", and Que Vive means "to be on guard; to be watchful and alert, like a sentinel". He could very well be saying "Upon" as the actual word, instead of Apon. I hope I did not babble too much. This is such an amazing song to me, music, vocal, and word wise. |
