Against Me! – Just In Lyrics 15 years ago
Yea I agree that it pretty much sucks. I think the lyrics are kinda funny but it just is a bad song, they cheaply incorporate a lot of stuff to try to make it sound like a hit, but I think it is lame, it's one of their only songs that I change when it comes up.

Against Me! – 8 Full Hours of Sleep Lyrics 15 years ago
I wonder what it means, "to live through one night like this...i would trade it for the silence." I thought he was describing a good night of 8 hours full sleep, why would he trade it for the silence? what is the silence? Is it the dream coming to fruition and there being silence in the new beggining?

Against Me! – Walking Is Still Honest Lyrics 15 years ago
I think that's right. Thinking about what if the world does end in y2k and what if there is a heaven.
I view these lyrics as a daydream,an imagination of a realization of being wrong about God at the end of the world. At the end of the world he realizes that his walking is futile, this is just survival. He tells his mom he understands why she taught him the way she did lamenting that he'd been taught to work hard be persistent and have strong will and to keep walking and working hard. Great things and as long as walking is still honest he decided long ago he's gonna keep doing things like he's been taught and walk that way. It seems to me like the mother and son are having a great understanding conversation towards the beginning especially the parts where there are multiple singers.
And then he asks the questions that looking back on he knows the answers. Answer #1 cause I didn't listen, Answer #2 cause I didn't ask, Answer #3 cause I made life hard on myelf walking surviving all day towards no point,toiling for no purpose when it would have been so easy if I'd just got on my fucking knees, but I didn't and I reiterate my solid reasons why.
Then he laments on his his anger towards God as the world was ending. All of a sudden when shit hits the fan he can blame and express anger towards this shithead and his heaven and hell which didn't exist in his mind when their was praise to be given, only when blame to be placed. And then he imagines being left on earth as it becomes hell while looking was heaven is just out of grasp.
And concluding his daydream, he decides that being on the other side, untouchable, that may be something to explore in another daydream.
