Jack's Mannequin – Platform Fire Lyrics 14 years ago
so good. i think its about him going through something hard, and he's relying on having someone to comfort him, but they're not as involved as he wants them to be or not as there for his as they used to be. like theyre watching him struggle but cant really help

Yellowcard – Hang You Up Lyrics 14 years ago
I think this song is about an ex who you were always optimistic about working things out with and always had an idea you were going to get back together with, but now coming to the realization that is might never happen, and that it was just an idea in your head that helped you cope with everything despite how much time passed since you broke up or saw each other. although no matter what...he still believes one day they can be together

I think the first verse is saying hes finally realizing he NEEDS to let go because hes sick of waiting for something that wont happen, and he cant keep fooling himself...despite realizing the truth of the matter..hes still chasing after her

"I cannot hold this anymore
My hands are tired of only waiting to let go
And I am waiting still
I used to know which way to turn
You were the light inside a tunnel in my head
I try to follow still
I try to follow still"

After a long time of not seeing the girl, he saw her and shes changed and isnt the same as she was last time. He tries remembering her by their old picture together, but takes it down cause it causes too much pain

"It's hard to see you
We are older now
And when I find you, you just turn around
This is a black and white of you I found
I hang you up and then I pull you down
I hang you up and then I pull you down"

He cant keep apologizing for the past if she keeps turning him down and doesnt want to hear it..but just because hes not trying anymore doesnt mean he doesnt care. Everyones telling him to just leave it alone and that hes never going to get her back, but he shoots down their pessimism and keeps naively chasing after this girl. He'd rather be lonely and miss her every day than give up hope

"No more apologies from me
My arms are tired of picking up what I put down
You're all I think of still
I'm gonna miss you every day
I turn my back on anyone who won't believe
And it gets lonely still
It gets lonely still"

It's hard to see you
We are older now
And when I find you, you just turn around
This is a black and white of you I found
I hang you up and then I pull you down
I hang you up and then I pull you down

He forgets how much time has passed since all his feelings for her are still going strong, and looking at their pictures brings back all of their memories together

"I get lost sometimes
Another year flies by
But I know if I try
Memories of the light in your eyes
Can take me back in time"

It's hard to see you
We are older now
And when I find you, you just turn around
This is a black and white of you I found
I hang you up and then I pull you down
I hang you up and then I pull you down

It's hard to see you
We are older now
(We are older now)
And when I find you, you just turn around
(Turn around)
This is a black and white of you I found
(You I found)
I hang you up and then I pull you down
(Pull you down)
I hang you up and then I pull you down
(Pull you down)
I hang you up and then I pull you down


Basically that every song he hears just reminds him of her, and when he hears them, he just visualizes her and all of their memories

"I don't hear music anymore
My ears are tired of all the pictures in the words
'Cause you are in them still "

Taylor Swift – Breathe Lyrics 15 years ago
I relate this song so a situation i went through, so i'll share my perspective! what happened was with this guy that i've been bestfriends with for the past 5 years, and we've hooked up a few times, liked eachother on and off, but it never really went anywhere with us. then he had some girlfriends, i had some boyfriends, and then we were both in pretty long lasting (over a year) relationships, and were strictly just friends. him and his girlfriend broke up before my boyfriend and i did, but then when i realized i had more feeling for this friend than my boyfriend, we brokeup...big mistake.
anywhoo! my 'friend' and i hooked up a few times, agreed that we liked eachother, but didnt take things fast at all. we were just cute bestfriends that were able to hookup and talk about anything. it was perfect. then like a freakin idiot, he gets a girlfriend, and doesnt even have the balls to tell me about it, and i findout through facebook. it would be different if he told me, talked to me about it, and said SORRY! but nope, i got nothing but a slap in the face and dose of reality....lost a friend, lost a boyfriend(who i'm now back with) and got really hurt. we still dont talk. it hurts to lose a friend, but he messed up and i dont deserve it. when him and this girl breakup, there is no way im going back to him...like i know he will crawl back to me.

I see your face in my mind as I drive away
'Cause none of us thought
It was gonna end that way
People are people
And sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go
After all this time
(Like i understand we werent really going anywhere in a relationship...but you can atleast tell me you have a girlfriend, rather than the night after we hookup ask her out. I'm done with you.)

Music starts playin'
Like the end of a sad movie
It's the kind of ending
You don't really wanna see
'Cause it's tragedy
And it'll only bring you down
Now I don't know what to be
Without you around
(After having you in my life soooo much for the past 5 years...how am i gonna function without you as a crutch?)

And we know it's never simple
Never easy
Never a clean break
No one here to save me
You're the only thing I know
Like the back of my hand
And I can't breathe without you
But I have to breathe without you
But I have to
(I cant live without you...but i cant let you control me and use me like this. yea it sucks right now, but i have to be done with you)

Never wanted this
Never wanna see you hurt
Every little bump in the road
I tried to swerve
But people are people
And sometimes it doesn't work out
Nothing we say
Is gonna save us from the fallout
(the damage is done...we probably should have never crossed that line but the damage is done, and things can never go back to being the same. sorry i cant be that friend for you anymore...you REALLY hurt me)

It's 2 AM
Feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know it's not easy
Easy for me
It's 2 AM
Feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know this ain't easy
Easy for me
(when i confront you have the girlfriend, and you go out and just tell me, without apologies or anything. just a "ya i asked her out". If you only knew how hurt i was that night....with that as the only response i got from you)
