Zola Jesus – Sea Talk Lyrics 13 years ago
Here is the most correct version so far...:

Way up high
When you tell me not to cry
Did you understand I can't help it
Did you understand I don't have a choice

Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
I don't ever stay away, for you
Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
That I can't, I can't afford you

Say
"I'm staying honey"
and I don't, I don't got the money
Do you want a rain-check?
'Cause I can't give you what you need
No, I can't give you what you need,
All by myself

Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
I don't ever stay away for you
Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
That I can't, I can't afford you

Give me one more try
Before I fall apart, fall into the sky
I feel every inch, I feel it fold
Over myself, over you

Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
I don't ever stay away for you
Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
That I can't, I can't afford you

I am bored.
I am tired.

and I'm gonna set you right,
I'm gonna find the way to your heart

Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
I don't ever stay away for you, oh no.
Do you wanna go?
Do you really know?
That I can't, I can't afford you.

Another lyrics correction:

At the end it's I, I I I I gonna set you right,
I'm gonna find a way to your heart.

HAHA so true gurl.

I've been wondering myself, the song is so melancholic and beautiful... drifts you away.
Hard to really interpret it without the exact lyrics which no1 seems to know, nowhere around the internet!

Sounds of someone that is losing grip of someone else, they know they are losing grip and they know what it takes to keep him\her, but they just can't afford it or unable to do it because of a reason that is external to them.

It could be about someone who's partner\family member has this horrible disease that costs a lot of money to treat\manage they can't afford, and they suffer a lot and want to let go, and it's killing the singer the feeling she doesn't have the money to keep up.... she is left alone, bored and tired.

It also could be about love obviously. One sided love it seems- the singer is inlove with someone who doesn't love her the same way (maybe it's a friend), probably a wealthy friend that's class is much higher, and they just come from difference places and she can't keep up with what it takes to live in the same lifestyle he does and so they can't connect.

Actually, it's:

Say,
I'm staying honey
And I don't, I don't got the money

(for sure, confirmed)

In the live version she also doesn't pronounce K in Awake so it sounds like she's saying "I don't stay away for you" but it's hard to tell

And also:

I can't afford YOU

it also fits better in the rest of the lyrics.... she pronounces it:
I can't affor - d'you

You can hear it clearly in the live versions she says I can't afford YOU, the best one is at the end of Blast House live version, she repeats it with no sounds.

Lana Del Rey – Without You Lyrics 13 years ago
THESE ARE THE TRUE OFFICIAL LYRICS:
(Correct, and without spelling errors like the other dopes in here. So many mistakes, jesus)

Everything I want I have:
Money, notoriety and rivieras.
I even think I found God
In the flash bulbs of the pretty cameras,
Pretty cameras, pretty cameras.
Am I glamorous? Tell me am I glamorous?

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you're so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They all think I have it all.
I've nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

Summertime is nice and hot,
And my life is sweet like vanilla is.
Gold and silver line my heart
But burned into my brain are these stolen images,
Stolen images, baby, stolen images.
Can you picture it
Babe the life we could've lived?

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you're so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They all think I have it all.
I've nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

We were two kids, just tryin' to get out,
Live on the dark side of the American dream.
We would dance all night, play our music loud,
When we grew up nothing was what it seemed.

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you're so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They think that I have it all.
I've nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you're so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They think that I have it all.
I've nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing if I can't have you.

Lamb – Wise Enough Lyrics 14 years ago
What beautiful lyrics and tragic wonderful music.

This song, imo, can be interpreted both personally and globally.

Seems to me that this song is about questioning the meaning of our existence in this world, and that despite the human kind might be destructive sometimes and focus on the non-important things (outshining the stars) instead of the "right" things (to be "wise enough" and to take care of what really matters, that is, not glory or money and the sort), there is still hope for each and every individual to try and make a difference for the better for as long as they live.

Placebo – Kitty Litter Lyrics 14 years ago
I agree with nonomdeplume.
I am a big placebo fan, but this song doesn't sound good to a point I felt a need to come here and post it. Funny, first time I find that their songs kind of "annoy" me because it just doesn't sound all that appealing.

It's not that the music, lyrics or singing is bad each to is own, just that the overall thing seems out of place and unthoughtful \ not working well.
