La Dispute – Three Lyrics 14 years ago
Are you sure it wasn't "Fall Down and Never Get Back Up Again" in which they expanded on this poem? Because that song seems more heavily inspired by this poem than "New Storms for Older Lovers".

Also, if it wasn't obvious, if anyone does not know the source of these lyrics but likes these lyrics, look up Edgar Allan Poe (I hope you heard of him) and his works.

Rise Against – Historia Calamitatum Lyrics 15 years ago
I thought it was:
"Like passengers aboard
with no control
to oceans unexplored
this ship sails through"

It's a better simile this way comparing us to the passengers and life to the ship.

Leftover Crack – Atheist Anthem Lyrics 15 years ago
Just so you know, reActi0n was only quoting a previous comment (hence the quotation marks). The only thing reActi0n replied was "I lol'd." (which means he finds it funny and probably agrees with your arguments). I just want to throw that out there so you don't argue with the wrong person.

Your arguments are actually aimed at tylerissorad who posted:

"a lot of you will say f religion. but you all treat satan as a god. regardless what you think, when you die, you go to either heaven or hell. now is your time to REALLY research the subject. dont just believe what others tell you. hell is a real place and its not going to be a party. i wish hell apon no one. i love and care for you, just as Jesus does, so please look into it with an open mind. if you have any questions please e-mail me at tylerissorad@yahoo.com"

Lipona – Shooty Hoops Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is from the EP "Pigeonholed" which is available to download for FREE here: http://www.pigeonholedep.tk/

That is also where I pulled the lyrics from.

Good band. Good song. Breaking the song down:

"Everywhere I look
There are some opinions I can't stand
And don't we all feel that way sometimes
But one sticks out to me
That we must fulfill our greed
Ruin artistic integrity for the sake of short-term marketability"
-This is about how bands sell out for money nowadays to be successful.

"I'll be driving home for the holidays
Listen to the radio and all the stupid shit that gets played"
-The stuff on the radio is shit, basically.

"We don�t stand a chance"
-They are saying how they, Lipona, don't stand a chance in society if the media will only play shit on the radio. Also, perhaps this is saying they don't stand a chance because they won't sell out.

"It must connect to the emotions of the audience
We cannot have them thinking on their own
If we keep them focused on relationships and their high school crush
We've done our part, let's go home"
-This is talking about what the media is doing to us: preventing us to think for ourselves by constantly playing songs without any relevant message. They play music that keeps us focused on our relationships, but not the problems in our society.

"What a standard, a restricting formula
That never allows my voice to get heard
You can go and sing those songs all day long
And realize that
there's no substance to their words"
-This is speaking more on how the media keeps us from thinking about the problems in our society ("my voice to be heard" is possibly referring to Lipona as a band). The songs on the radio are catchy, but they don't have any substance.

"I'll be sitting at home for the holidays
Watch the daily countdown shows and all the stupid shit that gets played
We don�t stand a chance "
-Again, saying how the stuff the media puts out is shit and how Lipona doesn't have a chance at making it big in our society if the media is like this.
