| Breaking Benjamin – Without You Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Wow that's weird cos that's the exact story it makes me think of too...that is not a stupud interpretation! Losing her, then going to the underworld to try and being her back, but failing... | |
| Breaking Benjamin – What Lies Beneath Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| That's a good interpretation actually, though I guess it's not necessarily a woman being raped...I say that because of course the singer is a man and i find it hard to distinguish the gender of the point of view and the singer. But yeah, this makes sense. When I first heard it I thought of something similar | |

| Within Temptation – Forgiven Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
To me this song must have been based on the TV series Supernatural...this will only make sense if you've seen till the end of season 2 'Couldn't save you from the start Love you so it hurts my soul can you forgive me for trying again Your silence makes me hold my breath Oh, time has passed you by' Sam Winchester has died and his brother Dean realises he never could have saved him from Azazel's plans. Now he's standing over his body grieving and decides to sell his soul to bring him back to life 'Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own Here I am Left in silence' All their lives Dean protected Sam as best he could from everything. It was when they were separated that Sam was killed, neither of them could ever be truly free alone and now Sam's gone. 'You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven' Kinda speaks for itself, Dean can't deal with Sam being gone from the world and all the issues he had with him mean nothing now. 'I watched the clouds drifting away Still the sun can't warm my face' Dean's despair... 'I know it was destined to go wrong You were looking for the great escape To chase your demons way' They were destined to lose this battle, there was never a chance of saving Sam, who was looking for the great escape in trying to beat the darkness within himself, the darkness of his demon blood. Also flashback to season 1 where Sam ran away from life as a hunter, escaping, because he wanted a normal life away from the demons and everything. 'I've been so lost since you've gone Why not me before you? Why did fate deceive me?' Dean would have wanted to die before Sam since he always protected his little brother, no matter what. Now he can't deal with the world any more without his brother. 'Everything turned out so wrong Why did you leave me silence?' Again, it speaks for itself. how could Sam just die and leave Dean? the last chorus could just repeat or it could be afterwards, after Dean sold his soul for Sam's life, Sam thinking about Dean making the deal for him, thinking he'd given up and desperate to save him. this is the best meaning i've come up with, it seems to fit absolutely perfectly and i mean this in a non-slash way |

| Within Temptation – The Swan Song Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think it's about someone who's going to sacrifice themselves for something but they're in a way all right with it because they've suffered so much and they lost somebody in the struggle who they hope to be reunited with after death, where it says 'we will be together again' makes me think she's looking forward to death cos she'll see them again. and the Supernatural episode Swan Song feels very based on this song too |
|
| Within Temptation – A Dangerous Mind Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I know it's a bit of a cliche but i agree with those who think it's about a boyfriend who's starting to show signs of being a little bit unstable or violent...i'm sot saying that's what it means to me but it was probably written about that. Maybe not just unstable though, he might have some secret in his past that has changed him and made him someone dangerous and that's what she's searching for | |
| Breaking Benjamin – Evil Angel Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
it's about a betrayal from someone he loved more than anything. i'm just expanding my previous idea 'hold it together, birds of a feather nothing but lies and crooked wings' they're similar somehow even as they hurt each other 'i have the answer, spreading the cancer you are the faith inside me' their pain is leaking into everything but still they love their friend like crazy 'no, don't leave me to die here help me survive here alone' don't leave me basically, i can't survive without you 'don't remember, remember' forget the bad stuff we did to each other 'put me to sleep, evil angel' the comfort their masochistic union gives him 'open your wings, evil angel' the other one shows their true evil and darkness 'i'm a believer, nothing could be worse all these imaginary friends' he keeps believing and fighting for their love but he's realising it's naive and stupid 'hiding betrayal, drive in the nail hoping to find a saviour' he takes all the pain and betrayal because he thinks he can save his friend somehow, that he can't survive without them 'don't surrender, surrender' don't give up, we can still make it through then 'fly over me, evil angel' the darkness inside them is overwhelming him 'why can't i breathe, evil angel?' he realises that it's gone too far, he's lost the battle and finally the darkness in his friend is going to destroy him the way he keeps saying angel shows that he really believes there's still a chance for them, that they can save each other...maybe there is but the evil angel fails to find it this time this is their best song i swear |

hey that's a good one didn't think of that you never watched supernatural did you? |
|
| Breaking Benjamin – Give Me A Sign Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
this is one of their ultimate best songs i think it's about two friends who actually are caught up in some huge apocalyptic war...one of them has some kind of special power or significance but refuses to use it to help 'dead star shine light up the sky i'm all out of breath my walls are closing in' this part makes me think of a big nuclear cataclysm or something that they're trapped close to and can't escape 'days go by give me a sign' one thinks the one with the power can save them but they're scared or unwilling despite all that they're enduring 'come back to the end the shepherd of the damned' he pleads for his friend's help in saving himself and the world 'i can feel you falling away' he knows they're scared and wants to help-later, also feels like they're abandoning him 'no longer the lost, no longer the same' they've been changed forever, hardened by the war 'i can feel you starting to break i'll keep you alive if you show me the way' they need each other to get through 'forever and ever the scars will remain' there will never be a true end, they will never forget the horrors of their lives 'i'm falling apart leave me here forever in the dark' he has lost hope and faith in his friend when they continue to refuse to help for whatever reason and he's breaking up 'daylight dies, blackout the skies' again, the apocalypse progressing 'does anyone care, is anybody there?" he's alone without his friend and hopeless 'take this life, empty inside' he tries to save the world himself since he no longer cares but he fails 'i'm already dead i'll rise to fall again' (Best lines!) he has given everything in this struggle and failed, but yet he carries on 'God help me i've come undone out of the light of the sun' calling out to God for help of course, desperation when everything seems so dark 'give me a sign there's something buried in the words' he comes back to his friend the one with the power and pleads again for them to help 'give me a sign your tears are adding to the floods' they're crying, begging him to leave them alone but he's saying, we need you. the floods can also represent the apocalypse i guess. his final hope for them to save the world, oto give him hope and a reason to go on ok so maybe breaking benjamin didn't write the song about that but it's what it means to me it probably just means two people dealing with suicide or drugs or something and trying to help each other out i also thought of one of them dying and the other not knowing hat to do without them cos i connect it to without you as well |
|
| Breaking Benjamin – What Lies Beneath Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
it's about two people who used to care about each other but now have become enemies, but one thinks that he can get through to the other and save them 'take a breath, hold it in start a fight you won't win' they are really fighting, this is a big betrayal of their past 'had enough, let's begin never mind i don't care' they're trying not to care about killing each other 'all in all you're no good you don't cry like you should let it go if you could when love dies in the end' the evil one insists they don't care any more 'so i'll find what lies beneath your sick twisted smile as i lie underneath your cold jaded eyes' the good one is trying to believe the other can be saved even when they're torturing him now you turn the tide on me cos you're so unkind i will always be here for the rest of my life' the good one is punished (imprisoned) for the other one's crime 'here we go does it hurt say goodbye to this world' this is again during their fight when they're killing each other 'i will not be undone come to life it gets worse' the good one is being beaten but keeps trying, he can't even die to escape the torture i'll be gone when you fall your sad life says it all' the evil one injures the other and leaves them in this huge mess the next chorus is again about the good one trying to believe his friend can be saved 'don't carry me under' basically don't destroy me 'you're the devil in disguise' the good one is losing his faith 'God sing for the hopeless' he's trying so hard but all that has been done to him is destroying him even without the presence of his friend who has run off and left him 'I'm the one you left behind' he comes face to face with the other and tells him how much he hurt him i realise i keep using 'he' it's because i immediately think of two brothers on opposing sides, randomly |

| hey i'm not the only one thinks all the songs on the album could be telling the same story! | |
| Avenged Sevenfold – Strength of The World Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think it's about a man who was part of some secret organisation and his enemies got to his family and killed them, so he went after them in revenge. but after he killed them he can't believe it was the best thing to do and he feels like it was all for nothing and he's lost himself in the fight for nothing. when he says strength of the world it's like feeling he's doing the world a favour by getting rid of the killers but also that he feels he has the strength to go on forever for his revenge this song is like an epic movie on it's own! |

does anybody else watch supernatural? because this instantly makes me think of all hell breaks loose at the end of season 2...Dean dealing or not dealing with Sam's death just for the record |

| Skillet – Comatose Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i actually am a christian dont tell me i don't know what im saying i still don't think this paticular song is about God i admit it could be but i dont think so i think its pretty simply about a guy who's actually in a coma and yet he can feel someone he loves, maybe a brother or a girlfriend, being near him and willing him to wake up then second verse he has woken up and finds that this person looks like theyve betrayed him and hes not sure if it true but cant properly forgive them even though he loves them this makes me think it's probably a girlfriend who went out with someone else or something 'bringing life' is a return to when he woke up i think the one he loves found the only way to wake him when everyone else had given up on him it could be about God but i don't really think so |
|
| Skillet – Rebirthing Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think it could actually be about jesus being resurrected since they are a christian band or not otherwise just feeling like life is terrible and there's no dawn, completely destroyed by pain or something. heres the story i put with it a guy has made a great sacrifice and is now undergoing a painful transformation into some kind of superhuman creature but the process is very long and painful and he doesn't know if he'll survive it and fight on-fantasy epic 'i lie here paralytic inside this soul' he's trapped inside himself defenceless against the forces trying to destroy who he is 'screaming for you till my throat is numb' calling out for God or just someone he lives doest matter, for help 'i gotta break out, i need a way out, i don't believe that it's gotta be this way' he can't take it any more, he's sure there was another way of saving whoever he sacrificed himself for and nothing was worth this it's like the hero's denial stage 'the worst is the waiting in this womb im suffocating' he thinks the transformation is going to kill him 'feel your presence filling up my lungs with oxygen i take you in' someones reaching out to him and helping him survive the ordeal 'i've died' hes remembering the moment of his sacrifice 'rebirthing now' hes alive again! 'i wanna live for love wanna live for you and me' he returns to the one he loves 'breathe for the first time now, i come alive somehow' they meet and they're both rejuvenated by his life next part is pretty much the same 'i lie here lifeless in this cocoon shedding my skin cause im ready to' back to his transformation, the moment he really changes into something stronger, decides he can go on ' i wanna break out, i found a way out, i don'tbelieve that its gotta be this way' ok he gets out of there, same as before 'tell me when im gonna live again, tell me when i'm gonna breathe you in' he calls out to his love in his mind 'tell me when im gonna feel inside tell me when im gonna feel alive' they call back, tell him to keep fighting cos they need him the hero survives the transformation and returns to life-that's why it could mean Jesus Christ. or just someone like anakin skywalker |

| Breaking Benjamin – Dance With The Devil Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
'here i stand helpless and left for dead' this is where his hopes are destroyed and he can't go on 'close your eyes so many days go by' life means nothing, he's tired of everything 'easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right' he knows he's gonna have to do something terrible to change it, to me it means sell his soul but it could just be suicide or murder 'i believe in you, i can show you that i can see right through all your enmity and lies' maybe an added part of his pain and depression, someone he loves betraying him, if he's selling his soul mit's maybe to change them 'i won't stay long in this world so wrong' he can't take the world any more, he's going ahead witht his horror he's going to do 'say goodbye as we dance with the devil tonight' he's raising the devil, making his pact/suicide pact with the girl he loves 'don't you dare look at him in the eyes, as we dance with the devil tonight' he knows how wrong and terrible this is but he goes ahead anyway 'trembling crawling across my skin' the horror of what he has done comes home 'feeling your cold dead eyes stealing the life of mine' now we know that whatever he has done has actually killed or other wise destroyed the one he loves by mistake that's what it means to me, suicide pact, decicison to murder of pact with the devil |

i don't think they're all written to ghirls i think they could be but a lot no. like why not a brother or something, or even God? just had to put that out there |
|
| Breaking Benjamin – Unknown Soldier Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think it's about a guy who is driven to violence maybe being a soldier or doing terrible4 things out of grief and anger after losing the one person he can ever truly love or believe in... 'show me what it's like to dream in black and white' say to me that he's trying to stop feeling the people hes hurting and killing, trying to see them all as enemies and nothing more so he can drown his grief 'so i can leave this world tonight' mean he could have a death wish or he just wants to lose himself in the horror of what he's doing and not have to feel any more losing someone has destroyed him and he's trying to stop being human and become someone who can't feel sorry that's a bit garbled |
|
| Breaking Benjamin – Evil Angel Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
this is one of their best songs... sounds to me like two people one of whom has some creepy holod over the other but they stay together even though they're always hurting eacvh other and being bad for each other cos they keep loving each other no matter what my first explanation is magic demon powers but i realise that breaking benjamin probably didn't write the song about that |

best song of theirs definitely really helped me out of depressed places it's about not giving up no matter what get thrown at you and even if your mentality goes or you go crazy or you're alone you keep trying to stand up and show the world who you can be |
|
| Three Days Grace – Time Of Dying Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| for me it's about feeling like your life isn't really life, like it's 'passing you by' and maybe this is gonna drive you to suicide or you're just gonna keep getting more alone and broken. maybe feeling a time of dying rushing in towards you | |
| Evanescence – Imaginary Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| taking God's name in vain might theoretically be tourniquet? | |

| it's about being yourself against all odds kinda thing. like being a teenager and being free when everyone wants you to conform | |
| Masterplan – Sail On Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| a lot of their songs are about surviving and living as hard as you can...it's great! | |
| Masterplan – Spirit Never Die Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| amazing song...best line: rise from the fire if you're gonna win | |
| Linkin Park – Leave Out All the Rest Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| agree about the deathbed thing but it makes me think of being forced to leave somewhere youve lived all your life in general...it is seriously their best song sometimes makes me want to cry! | |
| The Rasmus – Justify Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| there s a guy who gets these problems with himself, like depression, and a girl he loves whos always helped him and been there for him, but now hes going away to 'find himself' maybe seek out his past? and hes left her behind and looks back and realises that she was really all that he needed anyhow | |
| The Rasmus – Livin' In A World Without You Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| it makes me think of the one i love as well...very powerful beautiful woman who controls people through her beauty? | |
| The Rasmus – Lost And Lonely Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
doesnt it make u wanna cry? two people in a relationship...but one of them had this kind of mental thing like depressed or suicidal and has messed up everything between them and the other is scared and wants to help them and get away at the same time, feels guilty about wanting to leave, hates and loves the other, and hell doesn't it make you think of the sea? the backing music i mean, like waves... |
|
| The Rasmus – Yesterday You Threw Away Tommorow Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| er why has no-one commented? ultimate song! | |
| The Rasmus – Dancer In The Dark Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| doesn't it kinda tell a similar story to like not like the other girls and no fear? and even Lucifer's Angel...it seems like a recurring story with the band | |
| The Rasmus – In The Shadows Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| epic hero song, that's what it means to me, anyway. like Frodo or Aenaeus. | |
| 3 Doors Down – Citizen Soldier Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i know it's supposed to be about the army but i feel that it doesn't sound that way to me. doesn't seem to fit with all the criteria. i think God is a good perspective, but i've also got this idea about a band of defenders, not technically the army, hiding away...i don't think it's really much about the Us army. | |
| Linkin Park – Leave Out All the Rest Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| it's about someone who feels like he's wasted his life or is just about to do something that could easily get him killed, and he's trying to work out what good things he's done in his life that he'll be remembered for. it's such a beautiful song! | |
| The Rasmus – No Fear Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i have this vision of a girl who has to make some terrible sacrifice-life etc-it's just really exhilarating! | |
| The Rasmus – First Day Of My Life Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| it is about two people trying to stay together o a long and dangerous journey, like it was easy to be in love when all was calm and safe, but now they have to fight to be true to each other. best line: 'maybe i'm crazy but at least I'm still around' which i think is about them having to do really mad things to survive | |
| The Rasmus – Open My Eyes Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
maybe he was a soldier and he's sorry, trying to get away from the memories of the people he's killed, from the nightmares, only he's in love and his past is getting in their way and he feels like she's the only one who can help him. how come like no-one's commented???? |
|
| The Rasmus – Dead Promises Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| it seemed like a song about vampires the first time, with all the darkness stuff, and then I thought it could be also connected to Star Wars, as in Luke and Anakin fighting the Dark Side...now I don't know. There's been some tragedy or epiphany, clearly, and a guy's lost in this darkness that's overwhelming him, and he's trying to break free but it's so difficult, and he doesn't know whether it's worth fighting on or not | |
| The Rasmus – Not Like The Other Girls Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| he's deeply in love with her and he can see her falling apart, maybe after a tragedy in her life, and she's heading towards suicide, i really think that, i know everyone says it but it's true, and he's trying to save her but is not really sure he should, as in this world she's so sad and broken. there's a real sense of apocalypse to it, especially the middle instrumental part? it's unbelievable! | |
| Within Temptation – What Have You Done Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| it makes me so sad and angry at the same time. clearly it's about two lovers, who have not stopped loving each other but who somehow keep hurting each other despite this, and they can't stop and they're thinking that the only way to save each other form themselves is to separate...they're really mixed up with love and hate, and maybe there was a betrayal by one of them before, and they've done something terrible which could be this betrayal or just their continual hurting of each other | |
| Linkin Park – Numb Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i didn't get it...i listen to this song whenever i'm angry at my parents, which is kind of a lot, cos they have this image of me as really sweet and good and innocent which is awful cos it's so blatantly not true and i have to try and show them that they're wrong and then of course it all goes badly wrong...it's so much like my life it makes me want to cry sometimes...the line 'can't you see that you're smothering me always stands out for me', and I always feel that all the conflict is making me numb, and i'm scared it won't be reversed and it'll never be OK...sorry, babbling a bit here. | |
| Linkin Park – New Divide Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I just have this vision of a guy standing high on a cliff and the lightning is literally 'all around him', kind of energising him, as if he's one with it. it creates really intense images for me... and there's a girl, maybe his love, who misunderstands that he's trying to save the world and thinks he's betrayed her somehow( and your voice was all I heard that I get what I deserve), and even while the apocalypse is being reversed his life with her is falling apart, and the new divide is both a metaphor for the rift in their relationship and literally a manifestation of the apocalypse. the 'floods' have a similar double meaning and of course there's the 'fate' thing which brings to mind all those stories of chosen heroes saving the world? there' something at least about how the devastation mentioned is both real and physical, as well as being internal, a state of mind. | |
| Nickelback – How You Remind Me Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i think it is about a relationship, but one that's become seriously messed up, as if their love for each other, which was immense, has somehow really hurt them both? its a great song, really passionate. there's so much pain in it, they are so talented... | |
| Nickelback – Savin' Me Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i'm agreeing with most of these, obviously i don't know for sure either, but i know so many stories that fit it perfectly. i mean, i first heard it as a music video for this film serenity so maybe im kind of biased but it really does fit. the prison thing really gets me, but i mean it could also be about just frustration that feels like insanity when you feel trapped? i don't know. i'm just musing... | |
| Florence + the Machine – Cosmic Love Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| love this song! it seems like a woman singing for a man who's cheated on her. makes me think of new moon the book, even tho i don't like it, i mean, it was a good basic story. it's so sad! i don't really know any of her music except this song, a friend showed it to me and i thought it was so beautiful! | |
