| Atmosphere – I Don't Need Brighter Days Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I think this song is about a negative person who unconsciously brings other people down. They carry a cross for life's problems, complain about everything and think the worst of others. Examples: "They say brave when you don't flinch But we never saw the blade, never had the chance to cringe" They're reacting to something that nobody else even thinks is a problem. "Don't ever forget to put misery on the guest list" There's always one at every party. They're not about to let you forget a missed invite, either. "You wanna dig up bones, but your claws ain't grown" They try to bring up the past to hurt people or rehash old arguments. "Put your half empty glass on a coaster, step backwards slow" Classic optimist/pessimist test: Do you see the glass as half-empty, or half-full? "I'm like, might as well knock down them walls When the earthquakes follow you for all of your faults" They think the world is out to get them. "With a space heater on the back of my porch For when I take a break from attacking your fort" They're defensive to the point where anything you say can be perceived as a personal attack. "But you can't see the center of the web because you standin on it" They have no idea that they even act this way. |
