| Gazette – Leech Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| If you actually buy the album, it comes with a booklet of romanji and English translations of all the songs and the lyric at the beginning is "nobody believes you." The rest of the lyrics look right, too. | |

| Dir En Grey – Mazohyst Of Decadence (English) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| From a pro-choice perspective, it's just inaccurate. I'm all for artistic license but a fetus is not self-aware. It's not aware in any sense of the word. It would work for infanticide, a very young and heartbreakingly innocent child being murdered, which is what I prefer to think of it as so I don't get too political about it. | |

Although the person who put in the lyrics got a lot of them wrong (including the spelling of sexual...) it is actually "tantric sexual" or "tantric, sexual" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orgasm#In_tantric_sex Either one sounds awesome. |

| Placebo – Space Monkey Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
*an increase IN population of 100% *a chemical peel *we're SOWN together (which has a different meaning from sewn, so it actually does matter) This is what it says in the album booklet. Maybe someone's already said it, but "shooting the moon" is the worst possible way to lose in the card game "Hearts." |

| I think it's kiss of life? I'm not sure, but that makes more sense. (kiss of life, AKA CPR) | |
| Oomph! – Suck-Taste-Spit Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I think it's definitely meaning a blow job, but also "suck it up" in the more general sense. This sucks, it's awful, you hate it, but too bad--this is life and you have to deal with it. | |
| Tokio Hotel – On The Edge Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I need to go over the original of this song. I think it may have just been translated badly, and that's why it's so ambiguous; or, when they translated it, they wanted to change the meaning a bit. Is cutting more common in the U.S.? | |
| Tokio Hotel – Don't Jump Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Or, "I say your name in silence, you don't want to hear it right now," could mean that the speaker is almost afraid to approach the person they want to save. | |
| Tokio Hotel – Beichte Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| When they were eleven, they got their first kiss from the same girl, Bill the day after Tom. She was 14. IDK WTF. He never actually stole anyone's girlfriend, though. | |

Supporting arguments, please? To quote a somewhat corny friend of mine, a song means whatever the hell you want it to mean, whatever it means to you. That's the whole fucking point. (She swears a lot too.) |

| Tokio Hotel – Fïnal Day Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Also, it never specifically says TWO people. It says "we." That could mean anything. | |
| Tokio Hotel – Fïnal Day Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I think it's about a group of people's last day together before they have to go their separate ways. It kind of reminds me of people going off to college--they're all getting separated right at their lives are really beginning. Maybe he wrote it in memory of when he had to move... I could go way more in-depth analysis on you, but that's what I think. | |
| Tokio Hotel – Sacred Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Exactly. It's from the point of view of someone who's dying or dead. | |
| Tokio Hotel – 1000 oceans Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Sorry, I should have clarified; I'm pretty sure the original is "we only have to go 1000 oceans" or something. | |
| Tokio Hotel – 1000 oceans Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I think it's... we "only" have to go a thousand oceans wide--which isn't "only," it's really hard, but it's barely significant because they love each other and once they get there everything will be peaceful. | |
| Flyleaf – All Around Me Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
For the love of... wait. Bad choice of words, but you know what I mean--let people have the song mean to them what they WANT it to mean. That's the point of a song--it means something special to everyone, not necessarily the same thing. |

| Tokio Hotel – Don't Jump Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
"On top of the roof The air is so cold and so calm" Well, duh... "I say your name in silence You don't wanna hear it right now" I'm trying to talk to you, but it falls on empty ears/you can't hear me because you're so wrapped up "The eyes of the city Are counting the tears falling down Each one a promise Of everything you never found" People are watching and waiting; your tears fall down, counting each thing that you've lost or never had. "I scream into the night for you Don't make it true" Don't make it true that death is the only answer, don't fulfill your wish to die "Don't jump The lights will not guide you through They're deceiving you" You think that you'll be better off; the lights down below are inviting you to jump, but don't trust them, you won't achieve anything. "Don't jump Don't let memories go Of me and you" Don't forget us, and don't leave us behind and let everything we had die out "The world is down there out of view Please don't jump" There's a whole world beyond what you're thinking right now, waiting for you, and you have to continue living to see it; you're not thinking clearly and you can't remember (the world) what to live for. "You open your eyes But you can't remember what for" You can't remember why you bother to open your eyes again every day, instead of dying; the effort is too much "The snow falls quietly You just can't feel it no more" The snow is still falling, but you're numb to it "Somewhere out there You lost yourself in your pain You dream of the end To start all over again" At some point, you got too caught up in the bad things, and couldn't find your way out of that frame of mind. You want to die, to start something new and end all the bad things. "I don't know how long I can hold you so strong I don't know how long Just take my hand Give it a chance Don't jump" I don't know how long I can stay here and keep you from jumping; you need to take my hand and come back, and give it another chance (he doesn't know how long he'll be able to keep ___ from jumping when they're still unwilling to try) "And if all that can't hold you back Then I'll jump for you" If everything I've told you won't keep you here with me, then I'll go with you. |

| Tokio Hotel – Love is Dead Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Yeah. "Totgeliebt" means, literally, dead-loved, or loved to death. I think it means that they loved each other so much that when they were torn apart, or couldn't be together anymore, it killed them. (or, if you think it's a breakup thing, it could be that he loved her too much and now she's gone he's wasting away or something.) I personally thought that they both loved each other, but the letter is about how it just isn't going to be able to work out and they can't be together. The fact that it's over sends him into shock. (I hate to reference Twilight, but it sounds like he's gone catatonic and his mind is trying to protect itself and suppress the memories, and then after that first verse it's like in "Hello," when another part of his mind is talking.) Vultures are waiting for what’s left of us What can we take, it all has no worth What's left of them without there love isn't anything worth having--their best parts were invested in each other. |

| Tokio Hotel – On The Edge Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Actually, they've (the band) said this song is, indeed, about drugs. Here's my interpretation and then a drugs-related one... (FYI, yes, I cut, I'm working on staying clean, but yeah) First off, I sort of imagined this as an insane birthday party with lots of drunk, high, or simply uncaring people... "Its getting light outside She is still there but no one cares They sang her Happy Birthday yesterday without her" It's been going on all night; she's either been missing from where she's supposed to be, like, from her family--she snuck out to go to a party and they don't know what happened. Or, at said party, she got away from the main group of people who were supposedly celebrating her birthday, but the didn't notice and they don't care where she is. I think this is after the cutting incident, and she's dying now, whereas the next part is when it began. "Do you want to see yourself flying through the night? This gift is what you need You're gonna be alright Eyes close and fall" Do you want to lift yourself out of your depression, or your black mood? You need this, it will make it better; just close your eyes and sink into the pain (from cutting.) Gift--i.e., razor, or the "high" off of the cutting, will make you feel better. Don't worry, it will help you forget. (My personal experience--I feel like I'm lost and out of control, but the cutting is oddly comforting; I suppose pain is something familiar) "Her first time on the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death A moment that feels better" This is what really convinced me that the song is, indeed, about cutting. Edge--metaphorical, mental limit that she's trying not to fall over; it feels, when you're in that kind of place, as though at any moment you're to reach some sort of limit and you'll have a kind of final snap. The scars will stay forever--first off, the scars from cutting; second, the contrast between indelible scars and the temporary relief. Side to side with death--cutting is not indicative of a wish to die, but it's sort of side-by-side that, and it also seems to describe what cutting seems like; trying to bring oneself towards death. It could also be referring, in a way, to the parallel cuts; parallel to each other. You might also look at it as the cuts being beside the vital arteries or whatever, which spell death. A moment that feels better--the brief feeling the cut gives her, but quickly fades away again. "Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back" Blood-chilling. This made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. The swirl of emotions is confusing her; there's pain, both physical and emotional now, and at the same time the pain is making her feel better in away; now she's sucked in, and she's not going to be able to come back. "Its getting light outside She cannot sleep 'cause time stands still Someone's hand is touching her, she has no will" I feel like this is a little bit removed, also from after the cutting, when she's dying and she just doesn't care enough to try and live or respond to whoever is touching her. Time is dragging. She also might not be dying, but is having an "holy-crap-did-I-seriously-just-do-that" moment and is lying awake, and she's sort of in shock. "Each time when it hurts, she just feels so alone" She doesn't care at all Her memories are long gone Eyes close and fall" Every time she cuts, she remembers only why she started, and she feels isolated from all the others; she might want someone to come and stop her, but no one does. She can't remember why she shouldn't cut, she can't dig herself out of the mess she's in, and as her confusion increases she closes her eyes and cuts again to try and let go. "And closer to the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death This time feels even better Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back" She's getting closer to the true point of no return. This time feels even better--she's getting more lost in it, and it feels better and better as it brings her closer to that edge. "She shuts the door She longs for more and more And more She shuts the door She longs for more and more And more Just once more Everyone is watching Her arms are so sore But she doesn't care anymore" Kind of confusing why people are watching her after she closes the door. Possible messed-up time order again, I think. Or, she goes into a new room to try and get away, but when people find her she's too far gone to give a crap what they think--it fees good. Now she's addicted, and she wants more, and more, and more, to get that same feeling again--one more time and I'll stop, one more time and I'll stop, one more time... "And falling from the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death This last time even better Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back" She's gone too far and she's going to die; the last cut feels the best as she falls into death. "The sky is casting over Her last wish stays unsaid" The sun is starting to fade; they'll find her soon, but she won't ever be able to tell them what she wanted. Drugs: "Its getting light outside She is still there but no one cares They sang her Happy Birthday yesterday without her Do you want to see yourself flying through the night? This gift is what you need You're gonna be alright Eyes close and fall" The party is still going on; she's there, but no one cares whether she is or not, they didn't even bother to see if she was with them while they sang. Someone is offering her drugs now--it'll make you feel better, you'll be flying! "Her first time on the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death A moment that feels better Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back" A drug involving needles, that might leave track marks? What confuses me is that a high from drugs takes a bit to kick in, but then it lasts--not a moment. Maybe it's showing how pointless it is--she'll feel better for a while, but then it'll be over. "Its getting light outside She cannot sleep 'cause time stands still Someone's hand is touching her, she has no will Each time when it hurts, she just feels so alone She doesn't care at all Her memories are long gone Eyes close and fall" Weird drug affects slowing time, keeping her awake, someone is trying to talk to her but she doesn't care; the drugs have affected her memory. I can't figure out what the pain or the loneliness means for drugs. "And closer to the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death This time feels even better Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back" She takes another dose, and it feels even better than before. "She shuts the door She longs for more and more And more She shuts the door She longs for more and more And more Just once more" Getting addicted--one more shot and then she'll stop... "Everyone is watching Her arms are so sore But she doesn't care anymore" Her arms are sore from injections and people are staring because she's taking way more than she should. "And falling from the edge The scars will stay forever Side to side with death This last time even better Darkness and light are blinding her sight She's not coming back The sky is casting over Her last wish stays unsaid" Overdose. |
