The Dresden Dolls – 672 Lyrics 17 years ago
haha probably Amanda's secret way of letting go of a past emotion and 672 is a code for her to mean something completely off topic because the past could have been too personal so we're here busting our brains for something we'll never find the true meaning to but maybe interpret it into our own meaning.

The Dresden Dolls – Bad Habit Lyrics 17 years ago
haha main point of this whole song is the very last line "makes me want to give myself a beating...." saying that people in general suck since they're conditioned to worry more about appearances and pay more attention to other people's love life. it makes her go insane and a necessary and satisfying punishment is her 'bad habit' heehee great song

The Dresden Dolls – Slide Lyrics 17 years ago
"a late april day and it's sunny outside
and a red little girl's at the top of a slide
and an an orange old man at the bottom
wants to take her for a ride
as she slips and she tumbles the orange man mumbles
pennies crash down from the sky
and he tells her he'll take her away where it's safe
and of course it is a lie"

a man, whose waiting for the girl to be old enough, tries to indulge a girl and tries to give her a future and dreams demonstrated as pennies. to a child a shiny new penny astonishes the kid, but he knows that a penny is practically worthless

"she's a third the down and her skirts are yanked up
and her little girl cheeks start to wrinkle
but her smile is wide and her legs are spread wider
her hair growing long and her hips getting larger
past getting brighter
light growing weaker....
she is halfway down now but the man is impatient
shakes change in his pocket he might have to wait but she's coming...
she's coming..."

as the girl falls for his trap the slide is used to show how fast she's aging both physically and mentally and the man shakes change in his pocket to lure the girl in saying "yeah i have whut you want come here"

"who are you blaming?
they're just playing!
that's a good one...
who left the playground
a good decade before the bell rang?"

right here i believe the girl is having an internal conflict in whether it was his fault or hers. but unfortunately, she leaves in a rhetoric question in giving herself the blame.

"as she starts to draw nearer the view becomes clearer
the splinters are painful but she doesn't feel it
the pennies were loaded and as they exploded
she starts to spin out of control...
her eyes are now closing her sleeves are unrolling
up past her head and her veins are all showing
not that she noticed she's thoroughly focused on
one old man who's laughing...
who's laughing...."

now she has seen the evil of his ways and is now feeling the pain of watching her dreams and wishful thinking turn to reality and the older man knows it's too late for her to escape from him.

"dont' worry
i've got you
don't worry
i've got you
the orangeman got you....."

this part in her voice it seems like the pattern he used to get his prey (low, low, high, higher, nothing you can do now!

"a late april day and it's sunny outside
and a red little girl's at the top of a slide
and an an orange old man at the bottom
wants to take her for a ride"

this can either mean it starts again at the beginning to notice the change of the little girl or that taking the youth and innocence of a girl is a continuous cycle.

Franz Ferdinand – Fabulously Lazy Lyrics 17 years ago
i don't think it's specifically to those girls but goes out to any girl who gets by from her looks. in the first verse it shows how shes popular and the life of the party, but then he sees that she hasn't anything going for her. idk why i think this but maybe for a previous ex who saw the real side of the girl's personality.

Franz Ferdinand – Auf Achse Lyrics 17 years ago
song is helpful to a guy getting over a girl he idolizes like as if she's Jesus Christ. he's trying to make him face reality in telling him that he won't have her and to get over it and to make him realize all he's doing is hurting himself for something that isn't worth it.

Franz Ferdinand – Can't Stop Feeling Lyrics 17 years ago

Franz Ferdinand – Swallow, Smile Lyrics 17 years ago
all perversion aside haha i think "swallow, swallow, smile" also gives the meaning of just take it in, swallow your pain, disgust, love and then smile to mask your true feelings. i agree with the masochism part as well as explained by natalieday217. His relationship with this person can be further explained with the ending in which its mostly from Well That Was Easy in where he wanted to get rid of that person yet at the same time he'd regret it and that's why he stays in his dull relationship.

Otep – Breed (Nirvana cover) Lyrics 17 years ago
The lyrics in this version needs: "heard your pain. why did you go away? to hurt your pain? why did you go away? why did you go away?! why did you go away?!" think she inserted these lyrics to ask Kurt Cobain (nirvana) why he died. And for some strange reason think she is trying to say his name, well rhyme. hurt-Kurt. pain-Cobain. Eh well, that's just me.

Otep – Buried Alive Lyrics 17 years ago
Haha when I first heard this song it shocked me at how open and raw this song is. Love their style. My favorite part is probably "i ate the spine of Atlas now the world is crushing me." For those who don't know who Atlas is he is the Greek god who was punished by holding up the sky. Usually people refer to holding the world, but i thought of how much more extreme it would be to relate it to the sky. She helps one in the similar position to feel as if they aren't alone. STAND UP. SPEAK OUT.

Otep – Fillthee Lyrics 17 years ago
Otep is not a muslin; she is a pagan. Those who are interested about a part of her life and whut she stands for should see her performance of Dedicated to My Enemies. Should be on YouTube. She's the greatest poet alive. STAND UP. SPEAK OUT.
