Cadence Weapon – Juliann Wilding Lyrics	15 years ago
Juliann Wilding is a canadian music scenester (i don't think she's in any bands in a serious capacity, she just throws huge parties and maybe promotes shows). I think we can take this song at face value: like most of Afterparty Babies, it's about the gossip mill (particularly in Edmonton).

Mirah – Don't Die In Me Lyrics	17 years ago
To me, "I don't want you to die in me" suggests the loss of her lover in his/her ideal form - that the narrator has loved this person very much and does not want her original vision of him/her to die in her mind (or heart) as they become someone she no longer trusts or loves.
