States – Anxious Lyrics 14 years ago
Someones lying to her and she knows the truth, but instead of saying that she knows the truth
she asks him questions to see if he'll lie, she plays around with him watching im stutter and sweat looking for lies to cover up other lies.
its a song about someone being decietful and blatenly lying to her and she knows it.

Loquat – Swingset Chain Lyrics 14 years ago
it almost sounds like a troubled relationship and she is reminiscing on the times where everything was fun and carefree, where they were happy together and that she’s happy with him but now something’s different, things have changed and the "moving away" is a metaphor for the distance that is becoming between them, she feels as though her boyfriend is as far away as Greece, and time is running out: possibly another metaphor for her patience or love.
She tells him what it’s like when he’s not around she feels it’s raining all the time, nothings worth it and she realises she can’t “tie him to a leash” but she hates the distance that has been created, he is a part of her life now and she’s afraid of what she’ll do without him. There’s another use of metaphors in the second verse “now all these doors are locked” perhaps she’s locking the door to her heart? She’s closing herself off from him because she doesn’t want to hurt anymore.
she calls him a dandelion seed, basically saying she doesn’t know where he’ll stop one moment he’s there for her the next he’s nowhere to be found perhaps he moves onto someone better
For a very upbeat song it is quite the sad one, the burning out of a once fiery love.

Christina Perri – Arms Lyrics 14 years ago
“I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart
but you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start”

This verse is pretty self explanatory, she’s saying how she never expected this person to be the one she’s so in love with and tangled up in. This person has basically swept her off her feet the moment she saw them.

“You put your arms around me
and I believe that it's easier for you to let me go
you put your arms me and I'm home”

They hug and she feels like she’s home, she feels safe, protected, comfortable, happy, just by this person putting their arms around her, but she’s doubts this person she’s with feels the same, she couldn’t let them go easily or at all - “I believe it’s easier for you to let me go”

“How many times will let you me change my mind and turn around?
I can't decide if I'll let you save my life or if I'll drown...”

This verse is kind of tricky I’m not sure what it means possibly she’s contemplating leaving them but doesn’t cause her cant handle life without them she would “drown” without their love.

“I hope that you see right through my walls
I hope that you catch me cause I'm already falling
I'll never let a love get so close
You put your arms around me and I'm home”

She’s put up walls to protect herself from getting hurt and preventing love to come into her life, she possibly pretends not to care about the person she’s with and makes it seem like she doesn’t need them when in reality this one person is their world. She hopes this person sees through this mask and sees that she really does care about them. She can’t bare the hurt of losing them as she’s “already falling” meaning she’s already in love.

“The world is coming down on me and I can't find a reason to be loved
I never wanna leave you but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone”

She goes into a spiral of depression and insecurity possibly even jealousy surfacing thinking they don’t want her anymore. She doesn’t understand why the person she’s with could love her she picks out her every flaw; she wants to leave them because she isn’t good enough but cant she’s to tangled up in them. She hurts them constantly and by doing so hides her true feelings, she doesn’t want them getting close to her she can’t their handle love.

“I tried my best to never let you in to see the truth
and I've never opened up I've never truly loved
Til you put your arms around
and I believe that it's easier for you to let me go”

She tried so hard for her partner to never see that she needed them or loved them as much as she did for fear of scaring them away, she didn’t want to open up and love them in case they didn’t feel the same about her — she’s question their feelings for her. She’s never truly felt this way about anyone before but restricts her affection to this person because she believes they don’t feel the same.
