| The Head and the Heart – Rivers and Roads Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| This song is so applicable to my life right now. I'm almost out of high school and I have no idea what I'm going to do but all my friends are going to these great universities. Also, my 3 siblings all "live in a different state" than me, and being without them is really lonely. | |
| Taylor Swift – Untouchable Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I don't think this song is necessarily only about wanting be with someone you can't have but more of just wanting someone in general. For me, it's about this beyond perfect guy that used to be 'untouchable' (I've liked him since we were in 4th grade) and everyone has always known we should be together. I love the part when she says, "In the middle of the night, we could form this dream I wanna feel you by my side standing next to me, you gotta come on, come on, say that we'll be together.." because it's like how I've always waited for him to see how great we could be, and he's finally starting to realize it and now finally "we'll be together".:) | |
| Taylor Swift – Tied Together with a Smile Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
This song reminds me of myself in a lot of ways, which could sound really conceited but oh well. 'Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty Is the face in the mirror looking back at you You walk around here thinking you're not pretty But that's not true 'cause I know you' This is the only part that I don't see relates to me. 'Hold on, baby you're losing it The water's high, you're jumping into it And letting go, and no one knows' I've been depressed for a while and no one knows but my mom and I've contemplated suicide a lot so the jumping into the high water reminds me of that. 'That you cry, but you don't tell anyone That you might not be the golden one And you're tied together with a smile But you're coming undone' The only time I ever cry is when I'm by myself, and I cry a lot because of things that have happened in my past to cause my depression, and people are always expecting this greatness out of me that I don't believe I have and everyone is always disappointed when I mess up and I just smile and laugh it off like I don't care but that keeps getting harder to do. 'I guess it's true that love was all you wanted 'Cause you're givin' it away like it's extra change Hoping it will end up in his pocket But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain Oh, 'cause it's not his price to pay It's not his price to pay' Because of my difficult past, I was always desiring this love from someone but always one guy in particular who never had any interest in me which broke my heart because I've loved him for 6 years, but I know it isn't his fault that he just doesn't see me like that. 'You're tied together with a smile But you're coming undone, oh Goodbye, baby With a smile, baby, baby' This would be like if I did end up committing suicide, because I think everyone would be shocked because they always thought I was so happy since I'm always smiling and laughing. |

| Sucre – Endless Sleep Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I've always thought of this song as being about a person who is depressed. It relates to my depression very literally so I guess that's why. 'I woke up to a voice Who said I'm dreaming And I missed, I missed everything Oh I missed everything' To me this is like when I first realized I was depressed, the reality that I faced was like I had been living in this dream where I was so numb that I didn't pay attention anything, missing everything. 'Oh heaven, please help me Help me from falling back again In hibernation A century of loneliness' To me this part is like me, present day, asking God to help me from falling back into that depression where I was in a hibernation of sort, a time period where I slept constantly and isolated myself from the world, leaving myself lonely for what seemed like an eternity. 'So I stay at home In my own world' I didn't go to school or really anywhere much in this period of time because I didn't have the energy to go out into the world, I felt better in my own world, where I could just think. 'And I kiss it all goodbye Life never seemed so elegant' This kind of reminds me of how I never wanted to do any of the things that I normally would have loved, I couldn't bring myself to do anything but take pictures, because of how elegant they made life look. 'And so trite, so trite No love, no loss There's only air I feel no pain There's only here' Everything became so routine after a while, everything was numb. I had no feelings, I was just living through each day, I no longer felt the pain that caused my depression. 'But oh, it shall be the end Of endless sleep I must stay awake' I needed to literally stay awake, I had slept so much that I was missing everything. So I decided to try and at least pretend I was happy and try to go back into the world. 'I only want to hear And see what I see' This was really hard because I wasn't used facing the pain and I just wanted everything to be how I wanted to see it again, I wished for the more severe depression to come back over me again so I wouldn't have to face the pain, I could just continue ignoring any form of emotion. 'Why is this all that I can hold in my hands? All these phrases and voices buried in snow' I wondered why I wasn't able to overcome my depression as a whole, then I realized that everything was kind of frozen in a way, I was trying to let go of all these things that I had buried so deep inside of me that they were frozen and unable to get out. |
