| Florence + the Machine – Girl with One Eye Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It sounds like the man took advantage of the girl as a way to get back at her for something that she did to bother him. "Get your filthy fingers out of my pie; I'll cut your little heart out cause you made me cry." It seems obvious that he did something to her to make her more aware. Chances are it was a sexual offense. Maybe not rape, but it's open to consideration. "I slipped my hand under her skirt; I said don't worry, it's not gonna hurt; Oh, my reputation's kinda clouded with dirt." I think that by "cutting out her eye" the man wants her to be insecure. "Sleep with one eye open;" staying alert. Metaphorically, she only has one eye, so she can't afford to be unaware of the things going on around her or else she may be hurt again. |

| Grace Potter and the Nocturnals – You May See Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song is is so pretty, and progressively gets prettier. To me this song is about some sort of conflict with someone which the singer escaped from, and she doesn't want to be reminded of it when she is most content or not on her best terms. That's the way I interrupt it. | |
| Automatic Loveletter – Heart Song Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I like this song! It's interesting to say the least. But as far as lyrics go, I hear a few different things, "Hey babe, I got my eye on you Standing there on Baker Avenue I want you dead, your every shot down Love at first sight ain't messing around And you take my hand, you lead me to dance A Cinderella love story ends with a kiss" |

| Butch Walker – She Likes Hair Bands Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This is also my favourite song on the album--parts of it makes me smile, don't ask why. I think the meaning is quite obvious, maybe. Not sure. | |
| Neon Trees – Girls and Boys in School Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song is my favourite on the entire album. I think it's about a girl who pretends to like a guy, and shows that through her actions. And by that she's hurt 'her best friend.' I'm not good at song meanings, so might as well make the most of it, haha. | |
