Matchbox Twenty – Push Lyrics 13 years ago
My interspretation is that it is a man who has been emotionally abused by many women.

"She said I don't know if I've ever been good enough
I'm a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I don't know if I've ever been really loved
By a hand that's touched me, and I feel like something's gonna give
And I'm a little bit angry, well"

In this part, his girlfriend says id she ever has been good enough. However, the man is feeling his head caving and he doubts if he ever felt loved and he is well, angry. Basically, the girlfriend is causing lowering his confidence by saying she never felt good enough, so the boyfriend never committed to her needs. He starts to doubt if he is affectionate.

"This ain't over, no not here, not while I still need you
Around
You don't owe me, we might change
Yeah, yeah we just might feel good"

He needs the girl, and the emotional abuse won't stop. He hopes the two of them might change and the relationship might be good.

"I wanna push you around, well I will, well I will
I wanna push you down, well I will, well I will
I wanna take you for granted
I wanna take you for granted
Yeah I will, I will"

Here is where the man becomes angry. He wants to push the girl around, so she could feel what she is doing to him. Pushing around is criticizing them at everything, I believe. Pushing them down means throwing a person into a depression, which the girl is doing. Taking for granted, is self explanatory, the girl takes him lighty.

"She said I don't know why you ever would lie to me
Like I'm a little untrusting, when I think that the truth is
Gonna hurt ya
And I don't why you couldn't just stay with me
You couldn't stand to be near me
When my face don't seem to want to shine, 'cause it's a little bit dirty well"

Here, the girl is doubting him. However, he says the truth will hurt her. The girl causes more abuses by pushing herself away from him. The man has terrible self esteem, he considers himself "dirty"

"Don't just stand there, say nice things to me
I've been cheated I've been wronged, and you
You don't know me, yeah well I can't change
well I won't do anything at all"

Here, the girl is saying nice things that don't mean anything. And the man has been cheated and scarred by this girl and past relationships. He is so scarred he can't change.

"Oh but don't bowl me over
Just wait a minute well it kinda fell apart, things get so
Crazy, crazy
Don't rush this baby
Don't rush this baby, baby"

Here,, the man doesn't want the girl to leave him, even though she causes him emotional abuse. Things are falling apart, and the girl is rushing to leave him again.

"I wanna push you around, well I will, well I will
I wanna push you down, well I will, well I will
I wanna take you for granted
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna take you, take you
Yeah I will, I will
And I will, I will, I will
And I will, I will, I will
Yeah,
Push you around
Yeah you down
I wanna push you around
Yeah I will."

Here, the man is becoming extremely fed up. He wants to get back at the girl. As you notice, Thomas becomes more angry during his part. He is angry at the girl and decides he will become the abuser.

Breaking Benjamin – Polyamorous Lyrics 14 years ago
I think this is about a man who has a multiple personality.

The day has come to an end,
the sun is over my head.
My polyamorous friend,
Got me in a mess of trouble again.
So...

The days is done and his life is going good (Sun over my head). However the Polyamorous "friend" (his multiple personality) has caused him into a mess of trouble.

Just when you think that you're all right
I'm calling out from the inside.
I never heard anyone,
I never listen at all.

I find this to be from the other personality. Saying to not think he will be Alright and that the side is "calling" him out from the inside (Known as his mind taking on the personality). The side never heard anyone and never listened to his other "side" and his friends and family to stop.

They've come to get me again.
The cloud is over my head.
my ployamorus friend,
got me in a mess of trouble again
So...

The friends and family are getting to him and his life is ruined (They've come to get me again,The cloud is over my head.) The "friend" gets him into more trouble.

Just stay away from the white light,
I'll tell ya what side's your best side.
I never heard anyone,
I never listen at all.

The White light could be the way he gets his other Polyamorous side off. The Polyamorous side is saying he will tell the guy(guy who has two personalties) which side is his best side. The side also never heard or listen to anyone or friends and family.

Well, how do you know(x4)

The polyamorous side is wondering how the friends and family even know.

Let's go

The polyamorous is telling the normal side to go into the polyamorous side

Third Eye Blind – Palm Reader Lyrics 14 years ago
I believe this song isa bout a relationship that isn't really real, yet only the boyfriend knows.

Just give me a call
When you feel better
But you never do
And I'm just another debtor
To some palm reader
Who's got all her hands mixed up

(Meaning: He is waiting for the girl to call, to make sure the "relationship" is going well and she believs it is true. But she never does and he admits he is a debtor to a palm reader and the reader has everything she says mixed up)

Palm reader's breath
Smells of brandy and cigarettes
As she sells me sweet forgets
She needs something to get her through
She runs a scam like me and you
Oh yeah me and you

Meaning: The breath of the palm reader smells like ciggarettes, but sells him some good imformation that is a sweet forget. It's a scam and he remarks the relationship scam for the two of them.


Freud said that love
Was a good psychosis
But I don't know
I've had too many doses
He's a creep
And we all know that
He probably made it up


(Meaning: Freud says that love is a good physcois. But he doesent belive due to him have too many "love doeses" and not beliveing it anymore. He calls freud a creep and says he made it up, yet freud is right._

I will contuinute this another comment
