Brand New – Brother's Song Lyrics 13 years ago
"lying like lions out in the sand" is a reference to hemingway's "old man and the sea" where the main character dreams of lions on the beach three times, remembering his youth. i think here it's just saying they're young and enjoying life and war disrupts that.

Freelance Whales – Location Lyrics 15 years ago
I believe it's "my toes grazing the cedar" because he's floating up the stairs (like a ghost).

I think I read that this album is about the narrator's relationship with a ghost. To me that's clearly what this song is about specifically. I absolutely adore this song - it's probably one of my favorites off the album. It's so lovely :)

i think the little kid is talking about god: "he wasn't fighting anybody when he was by hisself."

i hear


well if you take all these things and bury the past
and pray that they turn into seeds and roots and then grass,
it'd be all right, it's all right. it'd be easier that way.
the sky opens up and starts pouring rain
like he knew it was time to start things over again,
it'd be all right, it's all right. it'd be easier that way.
