Bloc Party – Coliseum Lyrics 11 years ago
This song would be great in The Walking Dead. Zombies and chaos, humans running for safety, the fighting, the blood, the gore. I can't see anything else when I listen to it.

Love it, I've been binging on this for the past 5-6 days.

Built to Spill – Forget Remember When Lyrics 14 years ago
This song is amazing. I think the title/lyrics are pretty self-explanatory.
He's saying when we start thinking about how it was, "Remember when we did this" Remember when we did that," it can't be good for us. Living in the past (even with the good memories) is never a productive thing. It wastes time; when you "borrow memories" you're holding everything up against those memories- it lessens the value of 'now'. Perhaps the "There's a hole in tomorrow" also resonates with what I have interpreted the song to mean...the hole exists because one isn't even living in the present, living in the past allows for no tomorrows.

"There isn't a choice except to stop thinking there isn't a choice," (how amazing is this!?) We keep dwelling on the past and holding on to the hurt, and even the good stuff, but once again that doesn't allow for us to live today, does it? We assume we can't let go...and that thought process needs to be eliminated. We all have choice, he conveys.

I don't get the last bit really, perhaps he means unexpected things happen all the time? Like the rain--who could have seen it coming really? Therefore, how can we base anything (our lives?) of off the past's foundation? Or the rain could represent tears? I'd love to see any other thoughts on this, I'm probably way off.

This song is amazing.

Perhaps this song is about a relationship, one that has gone sour. One in which the guy made promises and failed to keep them. I'm sure many of us have said this and that; devoting infinities to our lovers, and then when the time comes to split, we split and forget about all the things we said.

I'm not sure what they mean by the town turning the lies and making them burn? I assume that the love was shared/experienced in a town, and hence the memories associated with the places they would frequent, make it that much more painful to accept that relationship, and the promises as just lies. Because you're in the town, experiencing it constantly, it hurts that much more. (Am I being redundant?)

I'm guessing the guy was the one that ended up breaking his promise? And now some other guy has come to fill that spot, walking sure and confidently through the paths that he feels he created?

Or do they mean that this one confident guy, with all his talk is just messing around(emotionally/physically) with this particular girl that he (the singer) likes, but when he disappears--the phony, this singer will give it a shot with her, and see what he can do?

Haha,I know it's all really jumbled up--my thoughts. But I had to get it all out. Would love to see more interpretations.
