Radiohead – There There. (The Boney King of Nowhere.) Lyrics 10 years ago
Everyone's view is different but here's mine.

In pitch dark
I go walking in your landscape
[A person exploring another person. Like when you meet someone for the first time and know nothing about them but you're making an effort to learn more about them.]

Broken branches
Trip me as I speak
[Despite the songwriters best attempts they're constantly being tripped and it's difficult to get to know this person.]

Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
[Just because you have feelings for this person doesn't mean it's mutual.]

There's always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
[Sirens in mythology are feminine creatures that are dangerous yet beautiful. There's always a "siren" guiding him towards disaster. Deep in the back of his mind he's knows it's best not to reach out.]


Stay away from each rocks
We'd be a walking disaster
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
[ The siren is calling his name but once again he knows it may be a disaster. ]

Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
(Someone on your shoulder
Someone on your shoulder)
[There's someone on your shoulder. There's someone who is gnawing at your brain tempting you.]

Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
(Someone on your shoulder
Someone on your shoulder)

There there!

Why so green and lonely?
Lonely, lonely?
[Why so sad and fresh?]

Heaven sent you to me
To me, to me?
[The writer feeling like this person is made for them. But for what reason? Love or to learn a lesson?]

We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen

We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen
[He knows he wants this person but deep down he knows they are volatile to together and if they stick around each other long enough they're an accident waiting to happen.]

Gorillaz – Amarillo Lyrics 11 years ago
I get the sense that this is about a lonely guy who fails to find any joy within his world. Crumbled and defeated (maybe from a past love.) he searches for the answers that will help him put more love back into his world and renew his passion for life.
