Neutral Milk Hotel – In the Aeroplane Over the Sea Lyrics 16 years ago
I think this song is about accepting death but also enjoying every second of life, enjoying each other and trying our very best to love and "count every beautiful thing we can see" while we're young.

Neutral Milk Hotel – The King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1 Lyrics 16 years ago
to me this song is kind of about dysfunctional families and how children, before being influenced by the outside world, are still innocent, commanding, sweet, and curious about people. I don't mean to say just young children but also teenagers, especially the line "as we lay and learn what each-other's bodies were for" which I don't find disturbing but just honest.

Neutral Milk Hotel – Oh Comely Lyrics 16 years ago
The impression I got from the song was that it's about humanity and how humans have such basic and barbaric instincts, in this song specifically sexual, and the need to create life, but then pretend to be so civilized and look back on their memories with such fond remembrance, trying to find beauty in some of their most animalistic acts.

The War On Drugs – Taking the Farm Lyrics 16 years ago
To me this song is about drugs and how they literally "take the farm" out from under your knees, how people who use drugs "chop down treetops" and "dig for diamonds at the bottom of the sea" where they will find no real meaning. This song, to me, is about the counterproductive nature of drugs and the people that use them, the way they're searching for something by using something that will never lead them to what they're looking for.

Neutral Milk Hotel – Everything Is Lyrics 16 years ago
That makes sense to me! Exactly what I think when I listen to it.

I've also thought maybe it could be about the careless feeling of being in love or the kind of silly shine that comes to someone's eyes when they're in love or just really happy almost like their in another universe, hence.. "Everything is beautiful here."

Neutral Milk Hotel – Naomi Lyrics 16 years ago
I think that maybe it's about how at first she sees her potential as a burden but he wishes for her to see the angel within and liberate herself.

Neutral Milk Hotel – Naomi Lyrics 16 years ago
This is such a gorgeous song. This is what I got from it: the feeling of liking someone so much, of thinking they are just... so pretty... and that they are maybe far more amazing than they realize, hoping one day they will get everything they want whether you're there or not.
