| Florence + the Machine – Only If for a Night Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
I would also add that it's about receiving support, hope and love from the dead even after they've passed on, in the ongoing struggle of life back here on Earth: "Tell me what all the sighing's about... And I heard your voice, As clear as day, And you told me I should concentrate, It was all so strange... That a ghost should be so practical... And the only solution was to stand and fight...And although I was burning, you're the only light... Only if for a night" |

I definitely agree with chopstix719. For anyone searching, here is the intro monologue: "Night after night it's possible to see, indeed, it's impossible not to see. These faces, from which hope and joy and dignity and light have been draining so steadily and for so long that now there is nothing left but this assortment of indifferent, damaged masks. They belong to human beings who, after a lifetime of struggling to become one thing or another, have succeeded only in becoming the rough sketches of their species. Recognizable but empty. The bruised and wretched bodies and souls of the saddest people on earth: the people who no longer care." |

| It's "pump" nitrous down the hole. Love Natalie in this song. She wants to fuck us too! | |

This is an amazing interpratation. Thank you for this. And to synthesizernerd, I realized the same thing. This album is much more reality-focused than the previous two. Still a great cd though. |

| Ballyhoo! – Paper Dolls Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I love this song, it's my favorite of theirs. Surprisingly, it wasn't one of the bigger hits off 'Cheers', though. I think Ballyhoo sounds a lot like a combination between Pepper and Incubus. | |

Favorite line in this is "between the sweat and the silhouette" Really great imagery, especially when you're supposed to be thinking of it in a sexual context. |

| Protest the Hero – Blindfolds Aside Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
A sin I didn't care for, But a sin that paid my debts, A sin that fed my children, And burned my smiles and cigarettes It seems to me like this is the executioner's view on what he does for a living. It's a sin he doesn't care for, but it gives him the money and resources to pay his debts, feed his children, and buy (as well as light) his cigarettes. But this all comes at a price- it burns his smiles, and crushes any optimistic view of the world he may have. |

| Incubus – Promises, Promises Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Actually, the line "i'd swing if you'd hand me the bat" sounds to me like he just wants her to give him a shot, a chance to prove he'd be there for her. And if she gave him that shot, he'd swing the bat to hit it out of the park as hard as he can. | |

| Are you sure it's not "What the frozen, dripping holiday burn that's cold?" Instead of bird? Seems like it makes more sense. | |
