| The Jezabels – Disco Biscuit Love Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| This song, I feel, is pretty easy to decipher. Trudy is a girl who is using drugs. Namely, ecstasy. The singer is one of her friends who is becoming more distant from her as she falls more into the drug scene. "The meanest boy in the hills" is the guy she's with or guys she's hooking up with at parties who "only love you when he's on pills" because ecstasy makes you feel more intimate with someone. Basically, they don't really love her. "Trudy" may find them "groovy" to hang out with, but in the end it is not true. | |

Hey, interesting interpretation! I have to say, I've always wondered what this song has meant, and I have considered it's been something along the lines of wanting approval from someone and still admiring them even though they hurt her endless times or something, and I noted the mention of Abel which left me wondering if it could be about a brother. I think I agree with your breakdown of the song, nice! :) |

| The Jezabels – Into the Ink Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Okay, just throwing this out there, not saying it's right or wrong. Just something I was thinking about whilst listening to it for the 100th time because I love this band to death. Do you think she is speaking about the disappointment of fantasy not being real, and as she says "hot frozen teardrops fall and melt into the ink" she is talking about a moment frozen, captured in a story and her longing for that melts into the ink on the pages. "When I call you won't come running" because they're not real? That, or she could be reflecting on letters from the past, or a memory that is frozen in her head. She also says "now a dark spectre to me" which perhaps implies she is thinking about a deceased person and they are frozen in a form of ink, be it a letter or something like I mentioned above. I don't know, just something I was thinking about. |
