| Brand New – Be Gone Lyrics

To me, the meaning of this song is pretty obvious. The words are cutting out because the narrator is slowly fading away. Even if he isn't about to die, his fear is eating away at him. He is coming to terms with death and he wants to believe that he will be going to heaven, but as his death draws closer his mind is racing faster and faster. He's thinking about everything he's done and never forgiven himself for or asked for forgiveness from God for, and slowly coming to the deduction that he is going to hell The line, "the one that is calling my name is telling, "come down" matter-of-factly states the abjectness of his spiritual identity. |

| Lorde – Tennis Court Lyrics

My interpretation is probably the most common one: this is about Lorde's newfangled fame. She talks candidly in interviews about how it's so strange being as young as she is and having all this attention placed in her lap. This song seems to be her monologue on the subject. She feels like a bit of a black sheep among other big names in the music industry, and she feels like she's been placed in a menagerie all of a sudden ("you can watch from your window"). She's excited about her fame and maybe even enjoys the attention, but isn't very big into the 'scene'. The people watching from their windows are the everyman, just looking in on the lives of celebrities through there televisions, computer screens, and magazines. This makes her feel like she can never just be a person again, like fame has made her an object. |

| The Pains of Being Pure at Heart – Heart in Your Heartbreak Lyrics

I think it means that the spark that was once between these two people is gone, but they both want to ignore the fact that it's gone and keep wishing that it would come back. They stay together even though there's nothing left for them as a couple. The pain will be there whether they're together or not, but they can't bear to actually let go of each other even though their love has gone. |

My personal interpretation of this song is that it's about someone who is possessed by a demon.
So I guess I'm right in a way. |

I think that it means that the other person in the relationship was predictable. That they always pulled the same shit all the time so that the author of this song always knew what his partner would do. And the same thing kept happening to trigger the same turn of events several times. This is part of what made the relationship so difficult. |
