| Cymbals Eat Guitars – XR Lyrics
| 11 years ago

This is my favorite song off of the album
This song is all about missing a friend who died of an overdose. Every time the narrator is high (which is as normal as breathing, as he says "high is just a feeling behind my eyes" to insinuate its nomality) he has memories and flashbacks of driving high or watching a scary movie or the smell of his friend's basement.
The narrator often visits not only his friend's memories that they shared; he visits.his Myspace "Grave"
Overall, the music that Joseph, our narrator and singer loves, unavoidably summons memories of a dead friend on which Joseph is on the same path. |

| The National – Gospel Lyrics

I'm not trying to interpret the song, but I am attempting to portray the mood. The idea that this song's action takes place in the evening is so perfect; the disappointments of the day and the struggle for love have subsided and now the narrator is lacking energy by the pool in the summer evening. It's a subtle, silent sadness. Imagine the black night, the humid warmth and chirping of crickets. The suburban private pool lights the area with a cool blue and white light but only sends the light far enough to illuminate the faces and nearby surroundings of our narrator, our narrator lacking love. It's difficult for him to feel the pain he's feeling here, perhaps because he's hopeful. The light of the pool (as there must be, for they're standing by the pool in the evening), is a "light in the dark." Again, the setting's mood is so perfect for the music. |

| La Dispute – King Park Lyrics

Many here are calling these words powerful. What is power? In this sense, it seems that power is the ability to control, command or influence someone or something. This is absolutely accurate, as La Dispute controls, commands and influences my emotions. There is no more politically and socially intuitive music in the history of the world. |
