| Faulter – October 16th Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I have loved this song ever since it's initial release. It reflects my own life as well, in a somewhat creepy way. When I first heard this song I met this girl. She blew me away. She was everything I wanted, and everything I didn't even know I wanted. Unfortunately, we were both with other people at the time. For years we were on and off, due to either me not realizing she wouldn't wait around forever or her being with someone else. Whenever I was single she wasn't and vice versa. It all came to a head last year. Around September we started seeing each other. I wanted to take this slow but I must've "waited much too long". Come October, I was ready to tell her how much I loved her and wanted to be with her. This was the weekend of my birthday, October 9th. Unfortunately I did wait much too long. The day I was going to tell her, she told me she needed space. That meant, I found out, that she was back with her ex. The day I found out? October. 16th. The relationship came full circle, this song by my side the entire way. The boys over in Faulter write some good lyrics. Somehow, they seemed to have tapped into the future of what was going to happen in my life. I always felt a connection to this song. Little did I know, it was a premonition of things to come. For the one who got away. You know I'll always love you. |

| Poets Of The Fall – Psychosis Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I have been a huge fan of Poets of the Fall even before their first album, Signs of Life, was released. I know every single song by heart and can understand what Marko means in his lyrics yet I battle with this one. On the PotF forums people generally think this song is about how fame makes life where you can't be alone. There's always someone there and it's like a religion. However, and none of their songs were ever about this before but, I feel this song is about drugs. Psychedelics to be accurate. Though I've never taken LSD it seems very much like a description of an LSD trip. "And I see that it makes me anti-everything And I see that it makes me want to shed my skin Shed my skin" for example. Or the chorus: "Revelation leading to my psychosis and inspiration Digest another hallucination, psychosis by recreation Happy till the next deterioration Psychosis" Some artists actually use LSD to allow them to be inspired to write not only lyrics but music itself, since it changes your perception so much. I don't think PotF does drugs but that's the only logical explanation in my opinion. |
