Brand New – Degausser Lyrics 15 years ago
I actually thought of that phrase as a reference to ancient Greek mythology.
"When we were made we were set apart, But life is a test and i get bad marks." According to Greek mythology, a person is born and split in two and they go through their life searching for their other half or their "soulmate." And that's their test.
I know Jesse's a christian, but that was the first thought that came to mind.

Pierce the Veil – Yeah Boy and Doll Face Lyrics 16 years ago
i think it's just perfect. especially the "as the ambulance's sang, another boy without a sharper knife" i think the hospital/ambulance is a metaphor for just doing something wrong with a girl and ending up in a terrible situation, and the "dull knife" is him trying to cut,(the knife being the girl) and he ends up doing things wrong, the knife was dull, and he just hurts himself.

Taking Back Sunday – Great Romances of the 20th Century Lyrics 16 years ago
i think its just the greatest song ever.
and the opening line,
"September never stays this cold
Where I come from, and you know"
i always love to hear cuz TBS is all from my neighborhood and nearby towns and i went through a relationship ending in september and i listened to this song just to think about it a lot.
so fucking pure genious.

Alexisonfire – To A Friend Lyrics 16 years ago
i think its telling a friend to stop being so dramatic and realize you could end whatever struggle (maybe love maybe abuse family etc.) easy but you want to make it seem like you can handle it and get to say you suffered through it.

I'm thinking that its time to get out
My patients are fading fast
The mind bruises just a little bit easier
In dark times and shadows cast

thats the friend. saying these things as complaints self explanatory.

What are you suffering for?
Your pride or some kind of personal war?
and will you throw it all away?
For nothing more than a simple taste?
I stay in time and watch you pass by
Paranoia woven deep beneath my skin
and i draw this line
Breath slow
You shouldn't have to fight alone
(screaming as friend)
You shouldn't have to fight at all
(back to him)
it's nobody's battle but your own

he's saying that it could end "what are you suffering for" is almost "are you stupid? end this already"
"your pride or some kind of personal war" is "so you can tell peopl you're tough or so you can just tell yourself?"
"and will you throw it away for nothing more than a simple taste" is like "you're gonna move on to another fucked up obsession thats gonna mess up your life cuz 'simple tastes' tear apart families and you moving on to something else can't save you"
"i stay in time and watch you pass by" is "i'll stay here and be here for you even though i think you're ruining your life"
"paranoia woven deep beneath my skin" "blah blah blah bullshit drama" from the friend
"I'll draw this line and hope you'll take my side (breathe slow, breathe slow)" is kinda "i'll wait for you to realize you're killing yourself" and the friend says breathe slow as if he/she was saying "don't make assumptions or jump ahead of everything let me handle it now"
"You shouldn't have to fight alone" "i really am here for you"
"You shouldn't have to fight at all" friend says " you shouldnt be here for me i can do it myself"
"it's nobody's battle but your own"
he says "fine whatever its yours"

rest is self explanatory.
