| Green Day – Boulevard of Broken Dreams Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Well, what this song really means is that the narrator is depressed due to his failures (or maybe he's just hard on himself), and he wants someone to break him out of this. It is a song I can relate to. In relation to the album, this song describes Jesus of Suburbia's state of mind while he is leaving his home town. | |
| Rammstein – Morgenstern (English) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Well, I think the song is about a girl who is either ugly and rejected by society or feels she is ugly. The narrator for some of the song is a boy who loves her, and the other parts are the girls inner voices telling her she's ugly. The morningstar just refers to a star in the sky that she wishes upon asking for beauty. In the end, she realizes that she has been beautiful all along. Now, this is what confused me. I remembered that a morningstar is a weapon similar to a mace except the spiked ball is on a chain instead of a stick. Does this have anything to do with the song. If it does, then maybe it means this man is crazy and uses the morningstar to beat the girl (morningstar oh shine onto the beloved of mine). | |
| Tool – Forty Six & 2 Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song talks about two things: chromosome levels and the shadow of the mind. 46 & 2 refers to the chromosome count in the body. Our current count is 44 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes, but scientists theorize that the humans may evolve to a new level of 46 & 2. The shadow is a part of a person's brain that contains the faults of their personality. Most humans deny that the shadow exists because they are afraid to face what they hate about themselves. This can cause people to project these attributes on others. It is possible that the song is saying that humans of 46 & 2 will have a very bad problem with their shadow, which might cause serious problems. This song can be used in explination of the show Elfen Lied. It is a show about a new breed of humans that have horns on their head and invisible hands that can be used to move objects and kill. It is believed that these humans must kill the current breed of humans to prosper, so most of them turn homicidal. This is not entirely correct, as it seems that only ones that were treated poorly as children go insane. The plot revolves around a female of the new breed that is already insane. An organization is trying to kill her, along with every other one of her kind. It gets very complicated and there are quite a few characters with important histories. If you haven't seen it, you should. |

| Linkin Park – Valentine's Day Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| God. I can't listen to this song for very long. I haven't experienced what the narrator experienced, but I keep thinking this will happen to me at some point. It might not be as heavy as other Linkin Park songs, but that doesn't mean it's bad. | |
| My Chemical Romance – Teenagers Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is the only MCR song that I like. All the others are pop songs. It's about how teenagers like to make fun of other teenagers. They taunt them until they change what they want them to. Some turn to drugs, but it doesn't help. Eventually, the outcasts turn to guns and knives and kill their tormentors. I can agree with the song. | |
| Nickelback – Savin' Me Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This is a sad song. Most of Nickleback's songs are. Overall, the song is about a guy who was in a relationship with a girl, but she left him because he wasn't a very good boyfriend. His life fell apart and he realized how much wrong he has done and he is contemplating suicide, but he won't do it if she comes back to him. The part where he is falling is probably mental, like falling in his mind. There is no ending, so you must choose what happens. Also, this song bears a resemblance to Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, whom I often reference. At one point in the story, Johnny dates a goth girl named Devi. On their first date, they almost kiss, but he is insane and he wanted to immortalize the moment, and tried to kill her. She beat him up, and fled. Though the incident is rarely referenced in the story afterward, you know he still loves her. He never commited suicide over her, though (he tried at one point and succeded, and she was indirectly responsible). In the song, the guy wants her back, but Johnny feels Devi is safer away from him, and she despises him immensely. If Jhonen (the creator) doesn't continue the story, the story is inconclusive. |

| Beck – Loser Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is really just about being an outcast or a loser. Interperetation as follows: In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey=I am different from everyone else, butane in my veins and I'm out to cut the junkie=I've been doing drugs and I want to kill my supplier, with the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables=I'll make some friends out of vegetables, dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose=possibly a drug experience, kill the headlights and put it in neutral=I'll drive my car dangeously, stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control=I've crashed my car and destroyed another one, baby's in Reno with the vitamin D=My girlfriend is in Reno a better man, got a couple of couches, sleep on the love-seat=I sleep on couches instead of a bed, someone came in sayin' I'm insane to complain about a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt=People say I shouldn't complain about things that aren't controllable or very minor, don't believe everything that you breathe=Think before you do things, you get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve=You get what you deserve for doing stupid things, so shave your face with some mace in the dark savin' all your food stamps and burnin' down the trailer park=Fine, keep doing dumb things and see if I care, Soy un perdedor I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me=I'm a loser, so put me out of my misery, Forces of evil on a bozo nightmare=You're wasting your time getting scared over something stupid, ban all the music with a phony gas chamber=You seem to do tough things but you really don't, 'cuz one's got a weasel and the other's got a flag=One's attacking and one's surrendering, one's on the pole, shove the other in a bag=One beat the other, with the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job=you're numbing yourself in every way, the daytime crap of the folksinger slob=That's what is on TV, he hung himself with a guitar string=He killed himself, a slab of turkey-neck and it's hangin' from a pigeon wing=He's a turkey and the ceiling is a pigeon wing, you can't write if you can't relate=Don't write things when you're on drugs, trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate=When you buy something you get good things and bad things, and my time is a piece of wax fallin' on a termite that's chokin' on the splinters=I'm killing myself by working too hard and what I've done in the past is coming back to bite me. Thank you for your time. |

| Gorillaz – El Mañana Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I am not a really big Gorillaz fan. I mostly like metal, but there are a few songs I enjoy. This song is about the loss of love. The lyrics are enterperetated as follows: Summer don't know me no more=My girlfriend Summer left me and forgot about me in a second, Eager man, That's all=To her, I am just another man who wants her, Summer don't know me, He just let me love in my sea=I love her, but I am alone, because she doesn't love me anymore, Cause I do know, Lord, from you that just died, yeah=The gift you have given me, God, has been destroyed, I saw that day=I remember when she left me, Lost my mind=I couldn't believe she did that, Lord, I'll find, Maybe in time, You'll want to be mine=Don't worry about me, God. She'll be back, Don't stop the bud when it grows, It's the dawn, you'll see=Don't cut off our relationship while it was still growing, Money won't get there=Just because he's rich doesn't mean he's right for you, Ten years pass and now, you'll flee=In a few years, you'll leave him, If you do that, I'll be someone to find you=When you leave him, I'll find you and start our relationship again. The video represents the song. Noodle(the girlfriend) is on a floating island(her relationship with the rich man) and is attacked by helicopters(some problem) and the island goes down with Noodle. This shows that when the bad times come, the rich man won't support her and she will regret having left the narrator. That's my interperetation. |

| Alice in Chains – Would? Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about Andrew Wood, vocalist for the grunge band Mother Love Bone. He was a heroin addict and died because of it in 1990. The lyrics are interpretated as follows: Know me broken by my master= the heroin is destroying me, Teach thee on child of love hereafter= don't let other people (especially children) get this addiction by neglecting them, Into the flood again= I'm getting high again, Same old trip it was back then= I'm having the same drug experience I've had since the beginning, So I made a big mistake= self-explanitory, Try to see it once my way= self-explanitory, Drifting body it's sole desertion= I'm detaching from reality from this drug, Flying not yet quite the notion= maybe getting high is pointless. The last paragraph is self-explanitory. |

| System of a Down – Chop Suey! Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song I always associate with Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. It is the suicide scene where Johnny shoots himself accidentally. The yelling are the Doughboys telling Johnny that he hides his evilness and that he is worthless. The calm part is Johnny talking to the Doughboys and the middle part is Johnny talking to God (ironically, Johnny goes to heaven in the story and finds out that God is a fat guy who sleeps all the time and doesn't do anything for the humans). Oh, I didn't explain what Johnny was? It's a comic about a homicidal killer who has fights with himself and searches for answers to his life (sort of). Sadly, it ended with seven issues of the comic in 1997 and hasn't been continued since. The title is where the JTHM in my username comes from. If you haven't read Johnny, you should. | |
| The Offspring – Self Esteem Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song shows that some girls take advantage of guys with no self-esteem. I'm a guy and I hate girls that are puppet masters. I remember that there were girls in middle school who tried to use me for stuff because I was smart but I didn't praise myself. I still don't, but I sure don't let girls take advantage of me. And if any girl out there thinks thinks this song is funny, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY? I pray shame on your heads! ALL OF YOU! The Offspring rock! | |
| The Offspring – Hit That Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about how people have mindless sex and don't consider the consequences. It could mess up a child's life. It's not the best song they have done musically (why the keyboard), but the lyrics are good. |
|
| The Offspring – Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is simply about a wannabee gangster. He thinks he is cool, but everyone else thinks he is an idiot. I have encountered several wannabees in my life and I always wonder why people think they need to be like that. | |
| The Offspring – Original Prankster Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Does anyone have an actual idea of what the song means? I sure do! It's about a man who was a prankster his whole life and he kept having guilt about all the things he has done, so he takes prozac to calm himself. He once pulled a prank that went too far, and ended up in jail. I love this song, and, yes, it does have a meaning. | |
| The Offspring – Come Out And Play Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is about young people in gangs that get weapons and kill other gang members. Usually some survive and some don't, but people keep doing it. It shows that either gangs are evil or people are stupid. Like some of you, I listened to the song a few times before actually listening to the lyrics. THE OFFSPRING ROCKS!! | |
| Primus – John the Fisherman Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is my all time favorite Primus song. It's about a man who as a child loved fishing, but everyone shunned him for it. When he got older, he became a professional fisherman, but he soon died when his boat sank during a storm. Very simple, but still good. I hate the fact that people always say "I heard this song on Guitar Hero". Let me tell you a few things: 1. This was the song that got me into Primus, 2. I didn't hear it on Guitar Hero, because I never played it, and 3. Guitar Hero is for people who can't play a real guitar. Les Claypool didn't get to be who he is from playing a fake guitar. PRIMUS SUCKS!! | |
| Rammstein – Rosenrot Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is about the dark side of love and how some men will do anything for their girlfriend. In the song, a man climbs a mountain to get a specific rose, because his girlfriend asked him to, but he trips on a rock and falls to his death. In the video, traveling priests come to a village and one of them falls in love with a local girl. They soon become boyfriend and girlfriend, even though the priests frown upon this. Eventually, she asks the priest to kill her parents, so they can be together. He does this, but then realizes she set him up. She never loved him and she only wanted her parents dead. The villagers burn the priest at the stake, which the girl and priests were a part of. The priests then leave the village and look back at the place the priest was burned. The song and video have the same idea, but a different story. Remember, guys: DON'T DO STUPID THINGS FOR YOUR GIRLFRIEND! | |
| Rammstein – Spieluhr Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is my favorite Rammstein song on the album Mutter. It is about a child that pretends to be dead, so it cam be alone (how selfish), but the towsfolk think it is really dead so they bury it, and put a music box in the grave as a tradition. The child awakens to find itself in a grave and starts to play the music box since it hasn't anything else to do, and it sings as well. Luckily, a few days later, the townsfolk hear the music box and they go to save the child. This shows that you can't escape living in this world except through death, which isn't what most people think of as a solution. | |
| Rammstein – Spiel Mit Mir Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is about incest between a boy and girl (rather messed up if you ask me). The girl has trouble sleeping at night, so she and her brother play with each other sexually (hence Play With Me). The title has two meanings: 1. play house with me (Vater Mutter Kind or Father Mother Child) and 2. play with me sexually. This is a twisted but true song, as most songs by Rammstein are. Spieluhr is still one of my favorites. | |
| System of a Down – Johnny Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think this song is about a boy named Johnny who has a split personality (being Johnny and Roger in the same body). Johnny is nice boy who can't get anyone to help him (complain in vain) and Roger is self-absorbed and is the evil side (I like to proclaim myself a god, meaning I am greater than anyone else and I can do as I please, even kill). The chorus is Johnny and Roger fighting verbally and Roger is telling Johnny he is worthless (let me help you explain that you are messed up). Also, this song reminds me of Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. It was a comic book series about a maniacal killer. He is schitzophrenic and has fights with inanimate objects. The JTHM in my username comes from the title. Unlike the Johnny in the song, he doesn't have two personalities. The line "sweet little boy" reminds me of a note in the title of on of the comics in book #1, which is "such a nice boy". Most of the System of a Down songs I associate with Johnny, such as the tapeworm song (my tapeworm tells me what to do), and Chop Suey! That's my opinion. |

| Metallica – Master of Puppets Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song is about heroin and cocaine, and their effect on people. The drug becomes the master of the person that takes it because the person needs it. Even though the drug isn't alive, it is, in a sense, controlling the addict. On an unrelated note, the title reminds me of the 1980's horror movie Puppet Master about marionettes with human souls in them that usually kill people. This has nothing to do with the song, I know. |
|
| Primus – Lacquer Head Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song is about people using inhalent drugs, such as gasoline, turpentine, carburetor cleaner, and, of course, lacquer. The gin and gatorade are a different story. Inhalents do fry your skull, so I've wondered why people use them (any drug, for that matter). | |
| The Offspring – Hammerhead Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song, to me, is about a soldier in the Iraq war. He must protect his country by risking his own life,he must infiltrate buildings not knowing what to expect, and he is plagued by guilt (it hammers in my head). In the end, he loses his mind, prays to God for protection, and then goes to an Iraqian school and kills everyone in sight. This song is my personnel favorite off of Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace. |
