Zero 7 – If I Can't Have You Lyrics 14 years ago
She didn't want it to have to be this way, but she couldn't let go. She tried so hard, even getting a job at the same place as them, but they still didn't notice her. It hurt - she couldn't let go. They had to die.

KMFDM – Anarchy Lyrics 15 years ago
OK first off, I am not religious in any way, but listening to the lyrics of this song today I had an image of Jesus being beaten before being crucified. Bear with me...

You break my back
You won't break me
All is black
But I still see

He's being beaten half to death but his will stays strong. He still sees because, well he's 'god'.

I made a god out of blood
Not superiority

Jesus was -supposedly- god made flesh. Sent down to show the true message of god. People at that time were barbaric, using their religion as an excuse to torture and murder. Jesus came to correct that.

Wake me up in anarchy

The "second coming" of Jesus. The end of the world so they say.

There's more, obviously the nailing to the cross line, but I'm in a hurry and should not be messing around on the internet!

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young – Almost Cut My Hair Lyrics 15 years ago
I guess long hair (on a man) is still seen as a sign of a social deviant.

"It increases my paranoia
Like looking into a mirror and seeing a police car "

People's first impressions are based on looks. Someone who 'looks the part' is always going to be the first to be accused (at various times that could mean black, long-haired, tattooed or a skinhead etc).
Life might be 'easier' in some ways if we all conformed and gave up our individuality, but it would be a miserable life.

Of course the song's not just about hair, but it's a simplified way of looking at the bigger issue..

Staind – Suffer Lyrics 15 years ago
The chorus always sounded to me like the result of their manager going "Okay this is a very angry album, you've gotta put something happy in there!"
It's like suffer suffer pain pain pain (chorus) On it's alright after all! - back to suffering.
I'm not complaining though, I love the song :D
