| Skillet – Monster Lyrics | 10 years ago |

A coworker played this song while we were driving to work, and to me the start of the song sounded like " this secret sodomy". So I read the rest of the song as a description of a self loathing gay person. The line "i must admit i feel like a monster" goes well along with how some christians preach that its impossible to be truly satisfied or self accepting living a gay life. I had never heared this band before but the sound of combined with my collegues christian persuation made me understand that this was a christian band on the business to lead queer people on to the straight and narrow path. Consequently I stopped the car and pulled out my gun and told that bootlicking idiot that he could walk the rest of the way. I dont feel bad about it. It wasnt snowing that bad and it wasn't that many miles left. |

| Brandon Flowers – Crossfire Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I think lavendersky is right. Its about good/evil, devil/god, us/them. I also believe its about a relationship but between Jesus (or Joseph Smith or whomever) and this girl (in the dress). Brandon Flowers crucified pose in the video also support this. "And when the hardest part is over we'll be here And our dreams will break the boundries of our fear"; this part i read as: well be the winners of this war (of god/devil), and our dreams (religious beliefs) will break the boundaries of our fears ( doubt). I read it this way because Brandon Flowers is a member of the LDS church. Im an atheist, and think the song is meaningful for anyone, were all fighting our battles, even if were not religious. |
