Iron & Wine – Walking Far from Home Lyrics 15 years ago
I agree...

I saw kindness and an angel
Crying, "Take me back home, take me back home"

This line seems like a reference to the rapture.

The National – Blank Slate Lyrics 15 years ago
"Bees flew out and they flew up their skirts 'cause they wanted to travel the world"

Absolutely fing brillant imagery! He's thinking about sex, and traveling the world...thats the thought that feel out when he cracked open his head. Amazing metaphor. He's entertaining guests, probably in a bland and boring relationship.

This song is about holding in your thoughts and feelings until you go crazy.

The grand finale is the moment where they all come to fruition. Then he can do and say what he wants. That's true freedom. A fresh start, or blank slate.

TV on the Radio – Blues From Down Here Lyrics 16 years ago

This is about praying to something that isn't listening...Down here is earth, up there is heaven....

Teeth gnashing, masticating this dumb tongue
Quiet now, quiet now, hear that supplication
echo into the void
been recieved by no one

This is about living by gods rules and living your whole life to try to get into to heaven...instead of just trying to be free and follow your own desires.

Lessen your desire
hold your breath so patiently
never inquire how to be free
Just stay on your knees

Florence + the Machine – Dog Days Are Over Lyrics 16 years ago
This song is about her realization that she shouldn't be depressed and dwell on things...Don't fight it just be happy..Just snap out of it... It's about being happy now, and getting over your shit. Leave it all behind...

Hear the Horses coming is a reference to the four horses and the end of this life...

As Lucy said...Let's Dance!! It all goes by so fast....
