it's almost like looking into some really upbeat no-worry-world, then they leave too soon... just a glimpse. great song. |

| Iron & Wine – The Trapeze Swinger Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
"I heard from someone you're still pretty And then they went on to say That the pearly gates Have such eloquent graffiti Like "We'll meet again" and "Fuck the man" And "Tell my mother not to worry" And angels with their great handshakes But always done in such a hurry" This never fails to make me cry. The way he phrases it just makes my heart drop, and I want to curl up in a ball and think about the people who matter most. |

| Foster the People – Life on the Nickel Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I read on a review that he's singing "Ooh yeah, I'm awesome, awesome, awesome." but I honestly have no idea what it is officially. | |

Am I the only one who pictured this as a person dealing with a quadriplegic? I think I'm taking it too literally though. I imagined it as a quadriplegic who is stuck in intensive care, deeply saddened, and losing the will to go on with life. "When the muscles in our legs aren't used to all the walking. I know if you could snap both your fingers than you'd escape with me." Second guessing myself, maybe no a quadriplegic, but I keep thinking of someone who is physically incapable of snapping their fingers. It makes the whole song a little more sad. Another aspect I notice is the lack of intimacy. You can obviously tell that the singer cares deeply for the person, but the person seems to lack any response. The singer is complying to whatever the person wants; telling them they can do whatever they want, almost like a feeble encouragement. That's the way I see the song right now. |

| The Antlers – Epilogue Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I've never listened to an album that I can barely relate to and yet feel so emotionally attached to it. What the fuck is this. I almost wish I never listened to this album at all, I'm just not ready. | |
| The Antlers – Bear Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I'm pretty sure this is more of a flashback to perhaps before his wife (everyone calls her his wife) got cancer. It's obviously about abortion, and it wouldn't make sense any other way than for it to be some sort of memory. | |

Whoever uploaded the lyrics just made a mistake. He sings "Tomorrow I'll hide my love for you, just like I always tend to do." Also, the other part is another mistake: it really is "so all HE can do is separate himself from you". I guess the uploader didn't realize that the song changes from first person after the first verse, then goes back. |
