| Jack Johnson – Cocoon Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Have been to Finland, met a dancing girl (from Lettland) at a strip club (Naima Club, Saariselkä). We talked to eachother, she listened to "Cocoon" from Jack Johnson on my mp3-player and immediately broke up into tears... Afterwards we cuddled a long time (strictly forbidden in such a bar!) but later never met again. "i guess all we had is really all we need" ... "let's use only what we really need you know we only have so little so please take these broken hearts and leave" |

| John Frusciante – Loss Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Think "We met the brothers who drove arrows" refers to heroin addicts. Matches with "And shot assumptions wide and narrow": narrow -> satisfy their greed (selfish attitude), wide -> an alternative (conciousness-expanding) way to interpret our life. There is no good or bad: the drug probably kills you, on the other other hand you'll experience advanced views of our life. I think the song is about saying goodbye to those people that are still alive, but wanting to be vivid enough to tell the reasons for being lost (to have chosen oneself for death). Peter |
