Morphine – The Saddest Song Lyrics 11 years ago
I'd agree is a about a dead one...
He seems to taunt her/him (remember his dead brothers, but it might be a lover) "come and get me"...
He wants to be haunted, and I can relate...

The Cure – Disintegration Lyrics 11 years ago
This song always sounded to me like a suicide letter to his fans and loved ones.
It always felt like a suicide letter to me.
It just sound like someone remembering their youth, and now that they don't feel the urge anyome, they give their life away.
Party piece is something everyone is entitled in a party, which, for the rest of the song seems to be his life, and he's ready to give up it.
It sounds like a goodbye, certainly when he said "screaming like this in the hole of sincerity"...
And certainly when he says "how the end always is". The only thing that is always the end is death.
And also because he stated he was thinking ab out suicide and was depressed about turning 30.
The same deep water as you seem to go very well with this song too.

VAST – Dirty Hole Lyrics 12 years ago
The dirty hole is the hole in a hanging knot.
Hear the men chanting with chains?
They are reminiscent of death row inmates condemned to death by hanging...
(remember pirates of the caribbean, the scene with the damned in chains singing?)
The sacred and dirty is because death is both sacred and holy for our culture, as respect of the dead is expected, but dealing with them is a dirty job, etc...

Arctic Monkeys – Balaclava Lyrics 14 years ago
for me is an allusion to casual sex using gang behavior as an example.

"Running off over next door's garden
Before the hour is done"
(about the running around between houses avoiding getting caught as an allusion to exchanging partners but protecting her Identity to avoid talking)
It's more a question of feeling
Than it is a question of fun
(is more about the freedom and power than the fun, as it for gang behaviors and casual sex)
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good
(as the mask protect the identity, the condom does so, so you can do alot of things without the normal consequences and confuse everybody with it)
But the end will reek of salty cheeks
And runny makeup alone
(as the sweat in her face and the ruined make up are the only evidences of the act)

Will blood run down her face
Of a boy bewildered and scorned
(in the gang behavior she will end up beating a victim that isn't much different from her, and with casual sex, she will eventually hurt a boy's heart that confused all the intimacy with love)
Will you'll find yourself in a skirmish
(she will find herself in a group)
Will you wish you'd never been born
And you tie yourself to the tracks
And there isn't no going back
(she will feel guilt because of all that)
And it's wrong wrong wrong
But we'll do it anyway cause we love a bit of trouble
(and though she thinks all this is wrong, the trouble make it worth it, for the ego and the feeling)

Are you pulling her from a burning building
Or throwing her to the sharks?
Can only hope that the ending is a pleasurable as the start
(now the guy, it's like saving her from a dangerous situation or let her get caught by the sharks, the cops or gang rivals, so he never knows what he is doing until it happens)
The confidence is the balaclava
I'm sure you baffle 'em straight
And it's wrong wrong wrong, she can hardly wait
(the same thing from the first paragraph)

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
Now the shaggers perform
And the daggers are drawn
Who's the crooks in this crime?
(and it's sure, even if he acts like he doesn't feel allot for her, he will always try to protect her, and thought they are both aware of the risk, and are together in this, if things goes wrong who's the shame?)

That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
That's right, he won't let her out his sight
(also jealousy)

You'll be able to post any day of the most
For the sights of all time
(will you be able brag of your doings?)

You knew that he'd be trouble right before the very first kiss
Quiet, unassuming but you heard that they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it off
But you resisted and fought
Sorry sweetheart, I'd much rather keep on the balaclava
(now is the most obvious, she knows they were never there to leave this life style, by getting intimate, but she want to do it anyway and she wants do do it by taking of the balaclava that makes everything non personal, like taking the condom as a sign of trust, but he rather avoid it, he is also afraid fo getting hurt) "

this is just what I read from the words meanings and the double meaning within them)
