| Aesop Rock – None Shall Pass Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| does anyone else imagine that he's saying funhouse caste instead of cast? because every time i hear this song i imagine it as caste and not cast but all the lyrics sites say cast. | |
| Pierce the Veil – Tangled In The Great Escape Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| i definitely think this is about addiction. mostly because as a recovering heroin addict, i really understood it through that lens. i also think there are two perspectives in the song, the onlooker and the addict. people all accepting the lie that you're not using, the 'hungry eyes' of someone in deep withdrawal, 'this is not what i want but now it's what i need' and especially the idea of constant recovery. i spent most of my time in treatment still using. the back and forth dance between getting high, throwing up, taking meds to kill the withdrawal, staying clean for a few days then picking up again... having someone in my immediate family who was also on H, i can also really understand the perspective of the onlooker, and connect with both of them. also, does this song remind anyone else of the album lowcountry by envy on the coast? | |
| Every Time I Die – Pigs Is Pigs Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| no, being an idiot would be not asking a question at all/automatically assuming that your way of thinking about something is the only right way. or, being condescending to random people for absolutely no reason. | |
| City and Colour – Waiting... Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| to me, this song reminds me of a breakup. a relationship is kind of like this blanket that protects you and keeps you safe and warm. when it's gone and you're alone everything sucks and it seems like all your friends are happily in love or enjoying being single. | |
| City and Colour – Confessions Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| is it just me or is the whole first stanza completely not what he says in the song? it seems like there's a lot missing... | |
| City and Colour – Silver and Gold Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I just added capitalization as well as removing the d from ran. Last night I dreamt that they dropped a bomb. Oh, the seas ran dry and the winds had calmed. The skyscrapers fell and crumbled to dust, And the skeletons of steel were covered in rust. And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared. Colors were drained straight from the sky, And nothing living had survived. Mountains were merely removed from the earth, And silver and gold had lost all its worth. And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared. Oh, everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared. I woke from the dream in a cold, cold sweat. I was full of doubt and deep regret. For suddenly it was all so clear to me; There was nothing left in which to believe. And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared Oh, everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared. |

| City and Colour – Sister Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| wow this song hits home for me. my sister entered the hospital a few days ago because of a heroin relapse and i, too, have battled with heroin addiction. she has dealt with so much, hearing voices, being bipolar, losing a very close friend to an OD under her watch, our parents' divorce when we were younger, a dad who wasn't there. she had over 2 years clean while on methadone, then slowly, and far away from us, she slid back into the dark. and i can't say i don't feel guilty and responsible for her relapse. i believe the 'lines etched in your hand' are track marks, to me. she and i used to be so close and now she hates me and our relationship is absolute shit. i just heard this song for the first time today, and it's crazy how it's like a puzzle piece the way it fits, the way i just want her to live through this and be okay and come back to the people that love her. i can't bear to see her gone forever. | |
| Kevin Devine – It's Only Your Life (Demo) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| this song is me. i listened to it and was shocked at how he so clearly can define exactly what it is that's going on with me. granted, i'm pretty sure he likes coke and i had a bit of an issue with heroin but either way my life is a fucking mess and boy did this song drive that home. | |
| Fall Out Boy – W.A.M.S. Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| no one's talked about the heroin reference here. after i noticed that one there are a few other arguable dope references. | |
