Zedd – Clarity (feat. Foxes) Lyrics 9 years ago
@[Se7enthDelta:8835] My gahhd I just log in to say that your interpretation was close to mine.
I'm actually been going through this situation that I love this guy for so long it's just that I'm not sure if he likes me back... I kept on pushing him away because I wasn't ready to be with anybody yet.. and neither do I want him to be close to him like a friend because I know want more than that.. it's like all or nothing.. and it's been 4 years, and now he just got a girlfriend last November.

All our time now is too short, compared to the life after death, which will be eternally be bound to HEAVEN or hell...

where are you going to WASTE your time here on earth? serving God, or serving the world?

Foster the People – Waste Lyrics 12 years ago
I strongly believe that the 1st persona of the song is really God,

"I'll hold your hand when you are feeling mad at me" -- 'cause people sometimes get mad at Him, He STILL choose to stay with us even if our hearts are stumbling upon the things that are happening inside our world.


"Yeah when the monsters they won't go
And your windows don't close
I'll pretend to see what you see" -- this shows His UNCONDITIONAL love for his people... The "monsters" are the devils, and the "windows" represents us that are being "open" for the "monsters" to come inside our lives, "pretend to see what you see" means He's still patient with us in spite of our "imperfection" and "unholiness".


“How long?” I say, how long" -- this the QUESTION lingers on our minds pertaining to the SECOND COMING of God.


"Will you relive the things that are gone? -- "relive the things that are gone" Many of us keeps on "reliving" from our past, being "sinful", being attach to sin before we know Christ.


"Oh yeah, the devil's on your back,
But I know you can shake him off" -- this proves God's TRUST in us that we are able to "shake" the devils' temptation until the SECOND COMING.


the CHORUS represents our FREEDOM IN CHRIST:

"And every day that you wanna waste,
That you wanna waste, you can
And every day that you wanna wake up
You wanna wake, you can
And every day that you wanna change,
That you wanna change, yeah
I'll help you see it through
'Cause I just really wanna be with you"

Galatians 5:1
[ Freedom in Christ ] It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Psalm 119:45
I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts

Luke 4:18
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free...


God wants us all to be SAVED so He can be with us... SOON.

"I help you see it through, 'cause I really wanna be with you" ---- God is telling us that He has given us the FREEDOM to enjoy life to the fullest, but still, He still wants us to PRAISE Him, never forget to give thanks to Him, "I help you see it through.." pertains to his works and wonders upon our lives, through these, we will be able to see His majesty, power, grace and mercy, "cause I really wanna be with you" ---means, 'cause all He wants is to be with us in the Kingdom of Heaven.




-----------------------------------------------------------

"You know it's funny how freedom
Can make us feel contained" --- this is an oxymoron phrase of the writer, that the FREEDOM we have in Christ "make us feel contained" can separate us from the "ungodly freedom" that the world could offer.


Romans 8:19-21
19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.


"Yeah when the muscles in our legs
Aren't used to all the walking" -- I believe that the "walking" is basically all the hard works (being frustrated) he has been doing through restraining from all the "worldly" freedom, "aren't use to all the walking" I believe that the writer says this because he was too attached to his "old self" before he repented his sins to God.


"I know if you could snap both your fingers
That you'd escape with me" -- the writer says that God can "take him" anytime He wants...

"But in the meantime I'll just wait here
And listen to you when you speak… or scream" -- God waits for us to come inside his Kingdom, and like us we are all waiting to see Him face to face, because this is all we are living for, serving Him, but "in the meantime" He'll be listening to our "cry", "desperation", and "longing" while we are waiting to see Him.

---------------------------------------------
"The truth cuts us and pulls us back up
And separates the things that look the same" --- The TRUTH represents the WORD OF GOD, that "cuts us", "circumcised people of God", and "pulls us back up" from being thrown in HELL. "And separates the things that look the same" meaning, God separates us from our old self, before we became "born again" "new creation"

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!


"You can fight it off
You can fight it off, you can" -- Through the Knowledge of Christ, and Divine Wisdom, we can now "fight it off" the devils awful temptations.

The Fray – Say When Lyrics 13 years ago
This song is really about war, the coming war... and about God,
"Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight"

God is telling us that He will be with us in times of "chaos"
He will fight for the nations who believe in Him, and He also be the one who will rescue the people who will be persecuted by the war.

"Maybe God can be on both sides
Of the gun, never understood why
Some of us never get it so good, so good"

This is really about he LAST WAR when God will rescue those who love Him.
"I'm coming back and you just don't know when
You want to cry but there's nothing coming"
But will never see Him literally, 'cause you know, He's a big big God... but we will feel Him as He will "carry us" from the ground.

But nobody knows when will the end time comes.... I think the writer wrote this song to interpret his feelings towards the Last War coming... But he's afraid that he'll lost his faith to God for he is being "shaken" by the world.

Say When -- 'he also dictates the signs of the end times...

"Now we're here and it turns to chaos
Hurricanes coming all around us
Another crack throws you back from the window
You stay low"

cause in 1 Thessalonians 5:2 says
"for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night."

Somebody has to correct the LYRICS. please.

I thank you for stating your answer, we almost had the same opinion about this song.. "... i really wanna be with you" I think it's the same with the BAND, 'cause I believe that they also want to be with God.

The Fray – Vienna Lyrics 14 years ago
In my own opinion, this song is not JUST typical break-up song. He wanted to break-up before they both become ATTACH to each other.





"The day's last one-way ticket train pulls in --- IT'S LIKE HE HAD ENOUGH, THIS IS THE LAST, AS IN THE LAST AND
FINAL TIME HE WILL SAY GOODBYE!

We smile for the casual closure capturing. ---THEY LITERALLY SMILE CASUALLY, AND THE FAREWELL THINGY CAME
ACROSS THEIR SMILES.
Here comes the downpour --- IT'S THE BREAKDOWN ON THE GIRL SIDE
There goes my fare thee well" --- THIS IS THE WAY HE SAYS 'GOODLUCK' AND "GOODBYE AND TAKE CARE' TO THE GIRL



There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
'Cause I'm already gone --- IT'S LIKE HE'S SAYING THAT HE'S ALREADY GONE--- LIKE THE FEELING IS GONE. 'NO WAY'
IS LIKE A 'MAD' PHASE.


Only so many words that we could say
Spoken upon long-distance melody.
This is my hello
This is my goodness -- SINCE THE GIRL IS TOO FAR AWAY FROM HIM, NOW HE CAN SAY WHAT HE WANTED TO SAY TO HER
BEFORE THROUGH HIS SONGS, AND THAT MEANS, THIS IS HIS "HELLO" AND HIS "GOODNESS" IN
SARCASTIC WAY.


Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again
Straighten this whole thing out. ---- HE WAS JUST SPECULATING IF THIS THING BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM WILL WORK
OUT AFTER 5 OR 10 YEARS. IT SHOULD BE 'STRAIGHTEN' WHAT THEY HAD
(RELATIONSHIP)WAS TOTALLY TWISTED AND THEY NEED TO SETTLE THE UNSETTLED.

Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy --- THIS LINE FOR ME IS LIKE THE GIRL HAS DONE
SOMETHING TO HIM, OR MAYBE SHE CHEATED ON HIM,
THAT THE GIRL IS AFRAID TO CONFESS ABOUT.
But this is the distance
And this is my gameface --- 'BUT' HE'S ABSOLUTELY DETERMINED TO DISTANT HIMSELF FROM HER.



So this is your maverick ---- THE GIRL HAS DONE SOMETHING REBELLIOUS THAT CAUSED THE DISRUPTION.
And this is Vienna ---- THIS IS A WAY HE IS TELLING THAT HE'S IN A PEACEFUL PLACE, WHERE HE'S ACTUALLY LIVE
HAPPILY, DESPITE WHAT SHE DID TO HIM, HE IS HAPPY!!!

Paramore – All I Wanted Lyrics 14 years ago
I only signed up to this site just to explain this.

It's not about Chad people, it is really about Josh, they have been too complicated with each other, actually, Hayley wrote this song when she and Josh gave it up to be together and find their selves in separate ways.. like Hayley&Chad, then Josh got married to Jenna... it's really about Josh people.


"think of me when you're out there"


it explains a lot... Hayley is aware of the Farro brothers are leaving the band right after BNE.
