someone who insists that no one will ever make him fall in love.

Brand New – Fork and Knife Lyrics 13 years ago
To me, this song is about two people who have a very exciting relationship, because it's new. After a while, the 'thrill' wears off, and they have to decide whether they actually love each other... if they've been in the relationship for the feeling, or because they really do love one another.

Margot & the Nuclear So and So's – Let's Paint Our Teeth Green Lyrics 13 years ago
I get the feeling that this song is about him wanting to just run away with the girl he's interested in.

A Rocket to the Moon – Life Of The Party Lyrics 13 years ago
What I'm getting from this song is that he's in love with a girl who really likes him, but she can't decide whether she wants to be with him, or be free to go to parties, mingle with other guys, and do whatever the hell she wants without a guy there to influence her to do differently.

Kay Kay And His Weathered Underground – Birds (On A Day Like Today) Lyrics 13 years ago
I'm thinking this is about a relationship he's in, which isn't quite healthy. He feels that his flaws are too much for his significant other, but he wants her to love him regardless.

MGMT – The Handshake Lyrics 15 years ago
I know that this was written to represent signing to the record label, but this is my interpretation:
When I really listened to these lyrics, I thought about someone losing their virginity, and then regretting it.
"you convinced yourself that you want it but you don't know"- people are almost always unsure on the first time, aren't they?
"you keep on trying to wash the blood from your hands but it won't go" - when it's over, your innocence is lost and you can't get it back.
It's kinda sad that I automatically thought of this of all things upon hearing this song.. yes I know. But it is what it is, I guess.

Every Avenue – Tell Me I'm a Wreck Lyrics 15 years ago
this song PERFECTLY represents how me and my ex's relationship was.

"i could have been easier on you,
i could have been all you held onto.
i know i wasn't fair, i tried my best to care about you.
i know i could have been a better man,
but always had to have the upper hand
i'm struggling to see the better side of me
but i can't take all your jabs and taunts"

he thinks he screwed me over and still regrets that we broke up, but
he also thinks i treated him like dirt when in reality he was cheating- although i can honestly take some blame.

"i told you when you asked, i knew this wouldn't last
at least i could be honest about that"

he says he tried to end it with me, but really he beat around the bush and didn't make his point at all.. next thing i knew he was in another relationship.

"i guess we both want different things, i want space.. you want a diamond ring"

until he started to drift away from me, i didn't want commitment.
but now i would do anything to get him back.

Death Cab for Cutie – World Shut Your Mouth (Julian Cope cover) Lyrics 15 years ago
all i've heard is the DCFC version of this. . .
and the meaning to me:
about a girl who is a rebel and just wants to live out her life as she pleases.
she's out to prove the world wrong.

Death Cab for Cutie – Crooked Teeth Lyrics 15 years ago
i love love love love LOVE this song.
seems to me like it's about.. quirks.
the members of Death Cab are very quirky themselves.
so that may support it a little more.
it also reminds me of Summer. For some reason.

Brand New – Gasoline Lyrics 15 years ago
I think this is about trying to calm down from being very angry about a certain situation.
"So you tried to put a fire out, but you used gasoline"-
the person was trying to calm down, but thought about the situation more and got themselves even more furious.
"and when the congregation gathered round
you were screaming "it wasn't me""-
the person is trying, but can't explain why they're so angry.
"I swear it's like dying to catch a ghost, It feels like I'm trying to hold smoke"-
the person is trying but failing to hold in their anger.
"I want to know what is the great divide, I want to know what I’ve become"-
the person is trying to figure out what has made him this way.
