| Built to Spill – Shameful Dread Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
The lyrics are pretty muddled here, the song goes more like this... Before I get myself unwound come around docility is tempting bait clearcut faith you settle with a different god tiny thoughts no other way to come to terms no need to learn I'm hoping for a change of heart hundreth start a precedent to call my own barely shown I'll never let you in my head simple dread I'm hoping for a change of hope til I spent some time with you thought that everything I do has no weight doesn't float has no weight doesn't float has no weight doesn't float what the hell do you think i'm gonna do? ... ... My take is that it's about conflicting feelings around love. On the one hand, if you don't have anyone who really listens to you, your words don't really carry any meaning. On the other hand, your lover's identity can take over yours, and perhaps it's difficult to come to terms with that sort of change. So, falling in love is like this deal where you can give meaning to your life, but you also have to be willing to lose yourself. It's such a great song anyway. |

| Kurt Vile – Freak Train Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I can relate to this. It's obviously about the weirdos you see on trains. The line "There's a man with hands for every finger" refers to a man with an egotistical nature. Kurt writes brilliant metaphors. | |
| The Knife – Neverland Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I didn't see the link to Michael Jackson. My take is that it's about the detatchment to the world that female sex workers must feel. And I think that the song title is a reference to the importance/glorification of youth in the prostitution industry. | |
