First off, I thought stealing happy hours was going to be my only find that hadn't been popularized much... oh ho ho was I wrong it was a happy day when I tried "Use of Time" out... Mahoney's Guitar is Nectar from the God's in the form of sound. With the words staying me slow The verbs that just don't flow Confusing use of time Partial stoning of the heart Waiting for something to start Confusing use of time ( I think this is describing whom ever being held in place first by the start of a convo, and the start of this convo being stuttering perhaps like if anyone has ever had a break up... There tend to be a lot of pauses often from people trying to let the other down neatly. I'm guessing the stoning of the heart and waiting for something to start is not so much as in to get stoned/beaten but a hardening of the heart preping for pain) But the trying again Makes me think it's all gonna end Confusing use of time (My best guess for this is that someone was trying to make a valid reason for ending the relationship and saying lack of feeling doesn't seem to be a good reason, I've had that feeling that I don't think it's gonna work in a relationship, but I'm absolutely downtrodden because I had such hope for the relationship, sometimes its hard to say you don't have hope) But everytime I turn the volume down All the I hear is the deafening sound Of your hearts pound (I think this maybe saying that whom ever was authoring the song whenever they turn the pesimistic voice in their head down or hell even just regular talking they see the emotion in the other perhaps the absolute sorrow... and perhaps that is killing them to inflict the pain even if its the correct decision... I've had that feeling in my life... Oh man I didn't have love for my second girlfriend but when I started breaking up with her she would ball and it would tear my heart in two but it was necessary unless I wanted to live a lie. But the trying again Makes me think it's all gonna end Confusing use of time (same as above) Today, the longest day Hearing repeating things you'd say Confusing use of time Can you hear the void I describe What could I say vacancy sounds like Confusing use of time (can you hear the void I describe... the void is the emptiness in the authors heart for her, back to the girl story before I didn't want to break her heart and I couldn't explain very well without hurting her feeling why I didn't have extreme feelings for her, I let the relationship continue on out of pity and cowardice, and a half hearted hope... My head cycled back and forth on what should I do it was confusing to say the least, should I break her heart and look elsewhere and endure the pain of the breakup or should I stick it out and go with my half hearted hope. It was an emotional rollercoaster and frustrating to say the least. The Guitar solo expresses how I felt pretty well frantic, explosive out of control. I don't think that the band would see that guitar solo appropriate to expressing the feeling of writers block and the frustration of not being able to create a song when they need to or want to...ayyy I'm pretty burnt maybe I'm wrong |

Yeah, I want to travel south this year (self exclamatory, he's going south this year) Aaah, woah, woah (the person that asked is crying) Wont prevent safe passage here (The author is saying this woman's crying tears sadness is not going to stop him from getting there without harm) Why you act crazy (She's getting distressed and hysterical) Not an act maybe (The author is getting aggressive and angry and is suggesting she is insane eventhough he preobably doesn't think so) So close a lady (You are close to a woman but you are girlish more insults) Shifty eyes shady (You're reasons for wanting me to stay don't seem to be the truth, come out with it and furthermore suggesting this woman is worthless) Yeah, hey yeah, tears that soak A callous heart (Your tears do nothing and are inconsequential to me and just furthering that she is powerless) Why you act frightened (your fear is stupid) I am enlightened (I'm smarter than you my choice is better than yours trust me) Your weakness builds me (I think this implys that her lack of confidence to get out of the relationship just makes his self esteem higher because it says that even though he is treating her like crap he still is her best shot) So someday youll see (you'll catch on your just slow, more insults) I stay away (I'm doing what I want you couldn't stop me) Perhaps that all is convoluted, I think its describing a relationship of sadism and complete lack of respect for the girl... come on listen to that voice it sounds twisted scathing and demented... I think Layne wants this girl to break up with him and is putting it in her face that hahhahahha you can't, you are too weak you can't live without me... who is going to want you... People idolize me, you on the other hand are a number... I think it has a moral of stick to your own kind if you are weak you better stay with the weak if you are strong you can co-exist with the strong how ever demented of a way that is of teaching a lesson... Yah, these people are extremely respectable but if you are going to be with someone who is respectable you should bring something to the table too. |
