Joy Division – Atmosphere Lyrics 17 years ago
personally, its about wanting to say something to someone... seeing the confusion in their face knowing you've either said to much, or what you said makes no sense.
difficulty interacting with people. connecting with people.
imagine the difficulty, and frustration when someone walks away completely silent.

Joy Division – Ceremony Lyrics 17 years ago
there is no song on earth that moves me as much as this one.
Ian Curtis and Joy Division are timeless, though they have few notable songs, its easy to say that they're in my top 20.

City and Colour – Sometimes (I Wish) Lyrics 17 years ago
its something everyone should question when faced with others,
if you peel back all the layers, all the material, the facades, if there is nothing but you.
will the person you're with still be there?

Neil Young – Cinnamon Girl Lyrics 17 years ago
my dad always calls me his cinnamon girl, this song has a great deal of sentimental value to me.

The National – You've Done It Again, Virginia Lyrics 17 years ago
Matt Berninger is a poet.
his songs are so simple, but there is so much to them.

two people just coexisting.
he observes this, lack of relationship at all in the span of a day...
"How close am I to losing you?"

upsetting on his part, because maybe there is only so much he will do to keep her.

i love the conversation though, its subtle.

Tilly and the Wall – In Bed All Day Lyrics 17 years ago
fun for the moment, not a long time thing.
she loves lying in bed all day with this person, their night together was full of infatuation, promises of future. however, she is wanting to keep all this as a moment that resonates.
she is drawn away by something, and because of this wants their time together to linger, and be an amazing memory.

Tilly and the Wall – Do You Dream At All Lyrics 17 years ago
i'm going to read a lot into this, but i've been listening to this band for years now, and this song has always been one of my favourites.

dreams come from your subconscious, your worries, and your problems.
when drinking those away, you lose the ability to dream about them.

Person A is worried about person B, because he/she drinks him/herself to sleep.
the longer this goes on, the less likely person A will baby person B

Brand New – The No Seatbelt Song Lyrics 17 years ago
he shouldn't be in this relationship because it means more to him than it does for her, he has his own problems to deal with, yet he's so enticed by her, he becomes completely selfless.

Kevin Drew – Cocaine Skin Lyrics 17 years ago
i don't want to do this song injustice, kevin drew is an amazing poet.

certain elements of this song give me the feeling that the writer is trying to preserve a person, a loved one.
or, wanting to hold on to the memories of a loved one who, may no longer reciprocate that love, not wanting to let go of those memories you try to keep pieces of them.
the whole cocaine skin thing is amazing, maybe the high the one person got from the other.

i could go on.

the other verses confuse me, i have no imagination.

Silverchair – Miss You Love Lyrics 17 years ago
i think it has a lot less to do with missing love, but moreso the feeling of being obligated to love somebody just because they've shown you something that you long for.

throwing the big shot deal away, is just like accepting the fact that you cant show the person who loves you the same love back. wanting something so much, like love, and feeling that love doesn't measure up to not being able to show it back... it hurts, but you love the pain.
you come to dislike this person who loves you because they show you what you can't feel.
once you leave that feeling, you begin to miss the affection of love.
masocistic.
