| Gotye – Eyes Wide Open Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| This song could very easily be about global warming, because that is what the lyrics seem to relate to the most. But on a grander scale, I feel like these lyrics could apply to ignorance in general. How many times do we know on some level that we are screwing up, but choose to ignore the signs? By the time we start crying, it is too late. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies, and each of us has the ability to hurt ourselves more deeply than anyone else can. | |
| Ben Howard – The Wolves Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Where to go when you can't go to anyone, not even God? I think he is mad at God, and maybe just coming to the realization of how cruel and violent the world is, and wondering how a God that is supposed to love us allows these atrocious things to happen in a world he created, and about losing faith in humanity as well. | |
| Grouplove – Colours Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I love this song. I feel like it is one of the most profound and emotional songs on the album. Everyone fears what will happen to us if we don't become the people we feel we are supposed to be, and this song is about that disappointment and self hatred the comes along with being able to accept who we are. I feel like they are telling us to not linger on these types of thoughts, and just live the life we have been given without regret, and loving ourselves no matter what. | |
| Ben Howard – The Fear Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I feel like this song is about letting your fears hold you back and hating yourself for it juxtaposed against the knowledge of what you have the potential to become, and living on edge, unable to achieve happiness until those confines of fear are broken. | |

I can't speak for what this song means to the band.. But for me it's about avoiding that point of no return over and over again. When you're really going through something major, and you just feel like there is no one else in the world that can possisbly relate to or even care what you're going through.. and that's generally the point when i feel like doing something horrible and drastic, but instead i always find a reason to run from my problems instead of facing them or ending it all. It's just a continuous cycle.. and you're just crying out for help but don't even know who to turn to. It would be so much easier if we could just look past our shame and classify our faults. that way no one would ever have to be ashamed, because then we would be able to see how fucked up we all really are and just accept eachother as human beings.. nothing more and nothing less. |
