| Arcade Fire – Rebellion (Lies) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think its about how society influences you to be scared of everything. Everything you hear in the news and in the media is to scare you, crime, terrorists threats, health risks, everything causing cancer, etc. Parents even scare their children in a lot of ways to keep them safe (scare your sons scare your daughters) but from what? We live in a world of fear and to try hide "underneath the covers" to protect ourselves to the point where we're even hiding from our own brothers; but at the same time its hurting us. By hiding and closing your eyes from the bad you are missing out from the good in life: People try and hide the night Underneath the covers People try and hide the light Underneath the covers night is a metaphor for the bad and evil and light is obviously representing goodness and life.the last verse just sums it up again by using the sun and the moon the same way they previously used night and light.Hes saying that if you dont shut yourself off from the world or "close your eyes", that its ok to experience the bad as well as the good beacuse thats life. |

| Coldplay – Now My Feet Won't Touch the Ground Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| i think people are interpreting this song way to literally. i think that its about someone that was lost and very down and then someone(the bird of prey) came along and saved them and completely turned everything around for them .notice the way chris sings the last line in the first verse. And after the metaphor of the bird catching him after he falls, he now feels as if his "feet won't touch the ground". I dont think he is literally descirbing a death scenario. thats just the way i see it i guess there no right or wrong. | |
