Lana Del Rey – Off to the Races Lyrics | 11 years ago |
I always assumed it was about being in love with a man who really was only with her for her beauty and sex, honestly. He sounds like he's involved in some kind of illegal activity, possibly drugs. |
The Black Keys – Ten Cent Pistol Lyrics | 11 years ago |
It's about a girl who found out her husband/boyfriend/significant other was cheating on her and the revenge she had. |
Sia – Breathe Me Lyrics | 11 years ago |
It's about cutting, to me at least. And this song has made me cry myself to sleep before. |
Florence + the Machine – Drumming Song Lyrics | 11 years ago |
I interpreted this to be the way you feel when you're around a crush or romantic interest. "I swear that you should hear it It makes such an all mighty sound" Your heart is beating so loudly you're shocked the other person can't hear it. Or I guess it could be taken like the "Tell-Tale Heart", like guiltiness is eating her up and she swears others know her secret. Paranoia. |
Florence + the Machine – Falling Lyrics | 11 years ago |
Oh, and just to add to my interpretation, here it says she is saying, "If there was nowhere to land I wouldn't be scared at all." But whenever I listen to the song I hear, "If there was no one to love I wouldn't be scared at all." Which added to my suicide theory. |

Florence + the Machine – Falling Lyrics | 11 years ago |
I think this song is about contemplating suicide, but worrying about the effect it will have on her loved ones. "Falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief." This is suggesting that while she would have no problem ending her life, she worries about the grief it will bring her family and friends. "This is a song for a scribbled-down name" To me this suggests that this song is sort of her suicide note. |
