| She Wants Revenge – Replacement Lyrics | 15 years ago |

For me, it's all about the relationship that you can't get over and can't get back. The one you blame yourself for, that if you would have done something differently you could have been happy. Fantastic song. |

| Murder by Death – As Long as There Is Whiskey in the World Lyrics | 15 years ago |

Aside from the annoying boxes, these lyrics are wrong. Drink away the harvest? Really? Listen to the song. I been down on my luck Been down, too long this time, I’ve drank onto the bottom Till I found myself there too And the taste of defeat, has never been so sweet So I pour another glass and fail again. And again. I’ve been down, and I’ve been higher than six towers I’ve asked the higher powers if they could just spare a drink Did they answer my cries? I was a bit preoccupied. I’ve toasted them, boasted to them, that they had met their match But as long as there is whiskey in the world We can drink away the hearth ache And drink away the girls But we fall in love, but we never touch As long as there is whiskey in the world. I have loved, and I’ve lost all that they gave me They all try and save me But I’m seeing this thing through And these feelings of remorse They leave me no recourse So I poured another glass, fail again and again But as long as there is whiskey in the world We can drink away the hearth ache And drink away the girls But we fall in love, but we never touch As long as there is whiskey in the world. I don’t want to be saved Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah as long as there is whiskey in the world As long as there is whiskey in the world. as there is whiskey as there is whiskey as there is whiskey in the world |

I agree with pretty much everything said about the song so far... but I'm surprised no one's talked about the last verse. Took a ride on Lyndale, I'm gettin' near But then the road became empty, and the people disappeared The clouds ran away, opened up the sky And one by one, I watched every constellation die And there I was ' frozen ' standin' in my back yard Face to face, eye to eye ' starrin' at the last star I should have known, walked all the way home To find that she wasn't here, I was still all alone There is a pang that hits me with that last line. She wasn't here. If the songs been about perception up to now, why would this be any different? He watched everything around him disappear on this walk home. He knew he was going home, and thought he was going home to her... but when he got there his perceptions were wrong again. She's not there. He's still all alone. But, like though the rest of the song, he doesn't let it break him. No matter what he's going home to her, even if she's not there. When he goes home it'll always be for her. The outro plays to that, over and over. At least thats the meaning I take from it. Its really touching. I love this song. Minneapolis was my old hometown, I lived on Lake Street. When I listen to this song I can close my eyes and I'm walking this path. 2 feet of snow, Lake Street, Lyndale, all vivid. |
