| KoЯn – Falling Away From Me Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Personally, I'll take a lot of aspects from many of the other comments: I think rather that someone he knows or knew was being abused, as shown in the 3rd line of the verse. Perhaps a sibling, and he was abused by an adult the adult that abused this other sibling of his. Now, I don't know if he has siblings or not, but it's a possibility. Abuse is definitely evident. The question is, who's doing the abusing. He notes that "life" in its self is falling away from him, perhaps that he was dying on the inside as the "hollow" part suggests, because of such abuse. |

| The Beatles – Eleanor Rigby Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I think this song goes a little deeper than just lonliness. I think Father McKenzie is a representative of the Reaper. He "wrote" sermon for Eleanor's funeral and killed her, thus he is seen "wiping his hands from the dirt as he walks from the grave" Also, they mention that Eleanor was buries with her name. This represents that, even in this lonely world, you aren't truly dead until you're forgtton. |
