Passion Pit – Little Secrets Lyrics 16 years ago
This is my interpretation: I think he is talking about earth "earths voice"

when I came down the dawn poured into me <---- creation
I shook 'em up the walls came crumbling <----earthquakes and distruction
my thin skin trembling with these salty wounds <----the fiery surface
my stolen gold inside the emperor's tomb <--- not too sure

now painting rainbows on my ugly face <---- The earth still not formed the way of today
I built this cardboard neighborhood's disgrace <------not sure
but I ascend and serve my feverish need <----the perseverance of earth coming from a hostile enviornment to what it is today.
within the confines of such chemistry <---- the elements used to create this place

let this be our little secret <--- As far as we know no other being knows about us here on earth.
no one needs to know we're feeling <--- no one needs to know we can feel (earth having feelings as we are part of earth)
higher and higher and higher
higher and higher and higher

but I feel alive, oh, I feel it in me <--- the life on earth (living things and the life inside of earth)
up and up we keep on climbing <---- creating mountains
higher and higher and higher
higher and higher and higher

my face blew up at such a casual sight <---- could be another time of distruction
the smattered colors of ecstatic fright <---- given
the rush above me to oblivion <---- the speed of death from this distruction
outlining wet sidewalks in halogen <--- The group of halogens is the only periodic table group which contains elements in all three familiar states of matter at standard temperature and pressure

have you ever felt so goddamn strong? <---- the power of earth
how come it takes some people so damn long <---- people who fuck up the earth
he turned to squeeze the lemon juice to rain <--- not sure
the citrus drawing out the scene in stains

mother, I can tell what you've been thinking <--- mother earth
staring at the stars on your ceiling <--- the dying sun that will soon come
thinking once there was a power that you were wielding <--- overtaken by the cycle of the solar system.
but now I've hit the mark,
stabbing at the dark <--- no more sun to light earths skies
and I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars <---- not sure but could be that at this time of destruction human kind may be looking at a destroyed earth from another planet...

This is my thoughts but Im digging deep. I can see it being about drugs too but if I wrote it I would be speaking of earth. Enjoy>
