Song is about a girl that can't get satisfaction from relationships and is insatiable. She is bored...clearly about her lust for partying and having fun. She is definitely not good relationship material ;) |

One of the best written songs lyrically. I think she is having a conversation with her inner-ego. |

This song is short and sweet to the point. That feeling after a relationship has subsided, well it feels like a vapour trail is left in the sky and in one's heart. |

The mere mentioning of Portland (the greatest city on earth) puts shivers down my spine every time I hear this fantastic track. I think this song is about someone who means a lot to another who is not physically actually there with this person (just in the heart). This person thinks of having this person by their side wherever they go. |

When you are in an amazing exclusive relationship nothing external can effect you the way it does when you are on your own. This is what this song is about that feeling of fearlessness. |

| School of Seven Bells – I L U Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
So simple yet so powerfully deep. The lyrics are about sorrow and about looking back at a pass love and feeling that longing.
Cause my dreams won't let this die
All I can see and hear in the dark is you...and it's hard to breath...Cause all I feel when I do
is this aching heart.
These lyrics are said by someone who put their heart out there for someone. One's chest always feels heavy and always hurts when thinking of a past love. |

| Zola Jesus – Night Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
|
I believe she has slowed down time to make a point about her love. She refers to the end of the night as if this relationship only takes place in one night. She is actually referring to a lifetime to be with this one person. Maybe more appropriately she should have wrote "end of the life when I can be with you". Beautiful song indeed. |

| Foals – Miami Lyrics

Miami is a wonderful place located in the sunshine state. It is all about the kind of happiness that comes along with beaches and fun in the sun. It is a vacation destination that is warm. Miami is the place in his mind that is inverse to the situation he is dealing with in a relationship with someone at his home. Many people use their imaginations to escape a situation that is tough to deal with. |

Brilliant song that does not require a lot of lyrics to get the point across.
"Cause in the end, you're only one"
"It's good for your soul"
"It's going to be alright"
Simply about someone having their heart broken and the writer sympathizes with this person in-measurably. Sounds like a good friend. Sounds like she cares. |

This is a fine song indeed. Road trips don't have enough representation in modern song. This guy has written an epic song about the beauty of a road trip. Love him for it. |

Love those crossroads or the decision points (moments of truth) in a relationship where one can convince the other to run away forever. To die together in bliss. Love is an amazing feeling. |

This song although sporadic in its messaging is about a relationship that the songwriter has with someone. It seems casual but there is a secret understanding that innate to love. |

The fact is we live in a material society with vanity being a key driver. It is a risk and reward relationship. The lyrics "reward me now" speak to this. |

| Kaki King – Falling Day Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
Clearly this song is about the aftermath of a relationship that has ended. The giveaway is the following line:
"Everything comes from somewhere else, everyone stays alone"
Before one enters into a relationship they are alone and when the relationship ends they go back to being alone.
Falling Day - may be about that feeling of falling back to earth when falling out of a relationship.

| Foals – 2 Trees Lyrics

This song may be about someone he knows that always gives a lot of themselves to everyone. Someone that is used by others in many different senses. Someone who endures emotional pain because of this. Depression occurs in this person, but the person will make it back because there is always hope. This song is dedicated to that very hope. |

| Maroon 5 – Not Falling Apart Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
One of my all time favorite songs and lyrics.
The worst feeling is when you lose someone who is not coming back - you just feel shattered. This song is about someone trying to not fall apart - holding themselves together. But that is just the thing you can't hold yourself together - no one can under those circumstances. You just feel paralyzed. You feel like you can’t talk or walk.

| The Walkmen – The Rat Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
This song is full of so much passion and truth. It is about how there once was this guy who had a lot of friends and then entered into a relationship with someone he fell in love with.
There relationship consumed one another, so much so, that his friends and contacts were lost. Eventually she leaves him (maybe she cheats, maybe she decides she wants to be more independent and on her own). He is completely devestated because he loves her so much, but there is nothing he can do to keep her with him. She's gone.
Left with nothing but a broken heart, he tries to endure even though realizing he has not only lost his love but he has also lost a lot of friends, status and social skills.
She eventually calls one day, and she regrets what she has done. This song exemplifies his anger and feelings about this call. |

| School of Seven Bells – Face to Face on High Places Lyrics

This song is about being in a long term relationship with someone and working through eachothers' problems and issues. One waits for the other to come around and the other finally comes along one day healed. She awakes from a sleep (maybe a metaphor for hanging her head down in the relationship while the other sorts their ussues out). She seems to transfter from each persepective as the lyrics progress in the song. |

| Röyksopp – You don't have a Clue Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
I agree with Coleman - this song is about the conclusion period of a relationship. It is like a snapshot of one of their last nights out together. She wants the relationship to go on (...this party hasn't ended yet, not for me and you). The way she emphasizes 'yet" and "I need your love" makes you feel her monumental pain and her heartache and mostly her longing for it to work out between them.
She really loves this someone (We're meant to be one, I know we are, If I am the sky, Then you are my star) and she wants the love to reciprocate (You're hiding from yourself, Guess you are, yes you are, Like golden rays of sun, In the cloud).
Although there are many songs written about this very fragile situation, this is the very best song written to date.
