| Worm Is Green – Synthia Lyrics

This one has no comments yet? I've always wondered what happens at the end of the story. The "left red eye" must have some significance. But to me it looks like she just left the guy for one reason or another. I never quite figured out why. Someone enlighten me. |

Great comments on here so far. Not sure yet what the song means but I will listen to it for a few more days (weeks? months, maybe?) and come back to share my insights. |

I always thought this was about wanting to fuck someone but knowing it would hurt them, so you just don't fuck them instead. |

| The Traveling Wilburys – Cool Dry Place Lyrics

Before I'd read about Tom Petty's housefire I thought this song was just about how to store and properly take care of things. My favorite verse is the "some places they get mildew..." verse, something about how the words sound when they are sung together in the song. Great stuff. |

After Tripoli and Grey Machine, Lyon is my favorite Pinback song. A lot of the comments here make sense, but I'm still not sure what the song is really trying to portray or say. |

| Gold Motel – The Cruel One Lyrics

Makes one wonder what the bridge is all about though. i mean, "i don't wanna waste my days, worrying what they'll say / i don't wanna waste my time, standing in a waiting line..." here the persona implies that she wants to REACH OUT or GET something. These bridge lines seem to contrast the verses, wherein the persona claims that she would rather NOT be with someone or get something. Weird. |

| Electrelane – To The East Lyrics
| 13 years ago

the lead guitar riff in this song is fucking amazing. furthermore, i love how it disappears in the middle of the song but comes back towards the end (after the numerous repetitions of "it could be home"). nice touch; great composition!
my impression of the song's meaning: the persona longs to be with someone, as suggested by the ff lines:
"i want to be with you...", ...
"the East ain't so far away, but it could be home to you & me," ...
"'come back, come back home to me,' i'm just waiting until you say those words," ...
furthermore, "come -back- home to me" imply that they used to live together (more specifically, they used to share a home). the persona is probably longing for somebody who decided to leave. how sad.
and oh, the lead guitar is so awesome. just had to say that again... |
