| Converge – On My Shield Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Wow! I really can't believe no one has commented on this! Such an amazing song, I have got to admit I really like the new-ish sound Converge have with Axe to Fall and this single released shortly afterwards. The intro to this song is killer! | |
| Converge – The Saddest Day Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Did anyone else notice the similarity of the part where Bannon screams "every time you justify, another good in you dies" to 'Killing in the Name' by Rage Against the Machine? | |

I just can't understand how anyone could actually like this. This is excluding the lyrics, seeing as no one can actually understand what the fuck he's saying, but quite honestly the fact that there are even people out there who take music like this seriously makes me sick. I think you're all being taken for a ride - surely even the band has to understand that what they make is not music? Do yourselves a favour and watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2I5Ps8igYo if that doesn't make you realise just how terrible this is, I don't know what will. The worst part is, I am a great appreciator of all types of music, but this just defies all logic. Give me Necrophagist, cool, I'll listen to it. Give me Death, Meshuggah or whatever the fuck you want and I'll listen to it and will probably find at least ONE good thing about it. Be it technicality, vocals whatever. But this is just ridiculous. And I know I'm ranting now, but if all this band's point is is to be noisy and "scare" people then I'd rather not classify this as music. That stuff is fine but just don't call it music, for the sake of all humanity |

| Extol – Burial Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Why talk about sex in a song? I don't wanna hear about you and your sexual experiences, keep it in the backseat | |
| Extol – Meadows Of Silence Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Every song I have heard that has the word 'meadows' in it has just been beautiful. This is no exception | |
| Opeth – In Mist She Was Standing Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I just get this image of a beautiful, angelic but kind of gothic girl standing in the mist by a lake | |
| Opeth – For Absent Friends Lyrics | 14 years ago |

I think the song is definitely an allusion to the Genesis song of the same name. It's a well-known fact that Akerfeldt is a collector of 60s and 70s prog/psychedelic rock and who better than early Genesis to provide that? Also, the song is of a somewhat similar atmosphere and length |

| Underoath – Innocence Stolen Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Dude... rough... seriously, you make yourself sound like a fuckin rapist. You need help | |
| Underoath – Innocence Stolen Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Good on you BrokenIdentity! I was just about to comment on how awful I found these lyrics (they aren't well-written AT ALL if you ask me), but I'll take it back because they've obviously achieved what they set out to - reach out to someone. And if they've made a difference in just one person's life then that's fantastic. | |
| Underoath – Burden in Your Hands Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I really like Underoath. And Cries of the Past and The Changing of the Times are two of my favourites, but I actually have NO idea whatsoever how the same guy who wrote such shitty lyrics here could write the lyrics for Alone in December. Simply put, Alone In December is my favourite song and lyrics of all time. But these are undoubtedly the worst written lyrics I have ever read in my life. I mean, they're just TERRIBLE! Not dissing the content by the way, I'm neutral on the subject matter at hand so I'm not dissing what the lyrics are actually referring to, just how poorly written they are. Because I just can't get over how bad these are. Wow. | |
| Underoath – Alone In December Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This is Underoath's best song, hands down. So emotional and the lyrics are just beautiful | |
| Deftones – Nosebleed Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song is just soooooo fuckin ANGRY! I love it! | |
| Underoath – When The Sun Sleeps Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Your interpretation just kills mine... but I really think the "angels used to watch us play" part is a kind of metaphor for marriage - like how it was in God's plans for them to always be together. That's just me though. Other than that added bit, I agree with almost everything | |
| Underoath – When The Sun Sleeps Lyrics | 15 years ago |

"I thought you'd come back at least I prayed The romance has been dead for years But i've been too afraid to dig the grave" This is pretty obvious, he is in a relationship where the love is gone but he's too scared to end it. He probably hopes that they will feel the same as they used to about each other "relief support never came memories carry me through the day of when we were kids and angels came to watch us play" He remembers when they were kids and their relationship used to be so simple and uncomplicated. The last line here, I believe, is talking about how God's angels would watch over them playing together. In this sense he is also saying that God meant for them to be together and I think he always thought he was supposed to marry this girl close my eyes just for tonight the sun still sleeps and when she wakes He just wants to forget about his relationship problems, and just for one night wants to close his eyes amd sleep "a movie that plays in my mind remembering you helps me survive every day a re-run of the next I promised to stay by your side that all would change i can't complain another victim of the game" He remembers the good times they had together and these memories are the only thing carrying him through this break-up. He realizes though, that he is just another victim of the 'game' of love "maybe love will find us again for there is always tomorrow" He hopes that perhaps the love will one day come back to their relationship, because there will always be a new day to start over. "sincerely till the end close my eyes just for tonight the sun still sleeps and when she wakes you'll be a memory" Once again, he decides to just close his eyes and forget about his troubles and when the sun rises the next day he will just be a memory to this girl and he will have closure on the relationship. Even though he is hoping for love to come back to them, he wants all his pain to be over and perhaps realizes that the best way to do that would be to just accept that it is over and to forget about each other. Well, that's my interpretation anyway... these lyrics saved me from a suicide attempt recently so this song is very special to me. Anyway, that's just what the lyrics mean to me |
