| John Mayer – Why Georgia Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This is an incredibly well written song. Living in Atlanta really allows you to relate more with it, but it definitely captures that 20-something moment in life. I've always considered John Mayer to be a tool, but he has moments of brilliance like this song. I don't know what it is about this song, but it strikes a chord in me. It really captures that feeling of just being frustrated and unsure of where you're going in life. "rent a room and I fill the spaces with wood and places to make it feel like home but all I feel's alone" Lyrics like this are truly perfect, when it comes to capturing a moment in existence. It's that feeling of being very incomplete before you venture into your actual life. |

| Silversun Pickups – Melatonin Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
"Melotonin is a chemical produced by the pineal gland (in the brain, but not part of the brain) that is slowly released in increasing amounts while you're awake. Eventually, there is so much of it in your system that you can't help but to pass out from overload." Wow, that's not true at all. Melatonin IS secreted by the pineal gland, but it is secreted in the presence of darkness. It isn't produced throughout the day and then there's so much it knocks you out. It's sold OTC and the recommended dose is 3mg, but they haven't found any adverse side effects of taking too much melatonin other than insomnia, which is ironic. Remember the golden role, while a little bit of a hormone can be beneficial, too much is catastrophic, in most cases causing an opposite effect. With that being said, I think this song simply is about sleep. I'd like there to be a deeper meaning because it's such a good song, but I think that's pretty much it. |
