| Panic! at the Disco – The Ballad of Mona Lisa Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Is the movie you're thinking of Pretty Woman (with Richard Gere and Julia Roberts)? Thanks for the great interpretation, by the way- I would have never gotten it if it wasn't for that. | |
| The Dangerous Summer – A Space To Grow Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think this song is about AJ going through just a really crappy time in which everything was just completely screwed up and he was blaming it on himself ("blame the ones that I loved for all the shit that I carried when *I was never enough*"), but then somewhere along the line he realized it was the world around him that was the problem ("my heart isn't breaking down; it's my world"). And then all the sudden he's just sorta sick of the world, and he's trying to find some sort of escape for even just a moment ("The world was getting louder. I found myself on edge...""I found a cut somewhere where we could all stay."). And then the obvious dawns upon him- music and art is the escape he's been looking for, the escape everyone else is looking for ("I helped make the art that hangs on your walls and plays in your heart; it stays in your arms. You're not a machine, I'm sure of that. You're every bit like me.") And it doesn't matter what anyone says about it now, because since he has that bit of escape (even though he's sometimes criticized for it)("I'll sell myself or not, like I really give a fuck I'm just an artist on a shelf.") I don't have much to go on, but it makes sense enough to me. | |
| Train – Hey, Soul Sister Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think this song is basically about this guy who is really really down. Like, close to suicide. His life is crashing down, and he's relying on things he shouldn't have to. But then he meets this girl that totally changes his mind. 'And so I went and let you blow my mind.' Instead of taking a blow in the head, he would rather let her blow his mind. 'You gave my life direction' She gave him a reason to live. 'Watching you's the only drug I need' He was relying on drugs and alchohal, but with this girl, he needs nothing. This probably didn't make much sense, but whatever. ;) |

| Kansas – Carry on Wayward Son Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I'm not entirely sure what this song is supposed to mean. I guess it just means carry on with your life until you find some kind of satisfaction, probably religious in some way. But don't let other things distract you through your 'journey'. Like, just follow your purpose. |

| Owl City – This Is the Future Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song means so much to me. Sometimes I feel like giving up, then this song reminds me that not everything is bound to crash. Some hopes will survive. (: Adam Young gave me a whole new perspective on music, he's so incredible. There are no words to describe somebody so amazing as him. |

| Owl City – Fireflies Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
To me, this song is one of those bittersweet cases. Like, fireflies represent all the dreams that Adam has, even though he rarely dreams (being an insomniac and getting little sleep). Also, 'It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep' I think it's saying he'd rather be dreaming of fireflies, even if it is ridiculous, instead of observing all the crap going on in this world. Like, this world is so hard to escape, but those fireflies are, like, a personal haven. |

| Owl City – Hello Seattle Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I've read through all these interpretations, and out of all of them, I seem settled on this one. It makes so much sence, and as a religious person myself, it somehow seems reassuring to think that God almost...takes place of these places, objects, and people. Almost to experience life like we do. I love the part about him praying. This is definitely the most accurate interpretation in my opinion. (: |

| Owl City – The Saltwater Room (Ocean Eyes Album Version) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song gives me chills, brings me to tears, makes me giggle with happiness. There is something about Adam Young that just speaks to me. 'If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?' The most emotion-packed line in this whole song, for me. Maybe that's because it's how I feel... Anyway, one of my favourites of the Ocean Eyes album. |

Possibly the cutest, silliest song ever written. It's also the only song about the dentist I will ever listen to. ADAM YOUNG IS MY IDOL <3 This song always makes me smile. (: |

| Owl City – If My Heart Was a House Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
-pokes username- This song makes me want to cry. It is probably the most beautiful Owl City song ever written. This one song just makes me...I don't know. It fills me up. (: I think it's about this young couple, maybe struggling a little to keep up with eachother. But no matter what, the guy will always be totally in love with the girl. She will always be his first, she will always hold the largest spot in his heart. Even if the girl leaves, and he tries to move on...like, nobody will ever be able to replace her. |
