Fugazi – Shut the Door Lyrics 13 years ago
I agree that the song is definitely about drugs.

However, i don't think that the fire in "i burn a fire to stay... fuel" was meant to be taken literally

Fugazi – Life and Limb Lyrics 13 years ago
I thought this too initially, but then i started to read the lyrics more carefully.

Now I think the song is about a movements that masquerade themselves as one thing, but really are centered around violence and just the desire to riot.

the line
"hey - we want our violence doubled (no but really in a loving way)"

makes me think that in particular

Fugazi – Strangelight Lyrics 13 years ago
This song has nothing to do with ecology.

I'm prety sure its just talking about the speakers descent into darkness.

Because basically the entire the speaker comparing himself to this polluted almost post-apocalyptic wasteland and talking about how it wasn't always this way but now it is now.

I'm not sure whether or not the song has some other overriding meaning, or if this description is all there is to it.

Fugazi – The Kill Lyrics 13 years ago
Basically the song is about being born into certain roles that society has cast for us.

The first part of the song is about not having that much of a say in the roles you play in society.


Then later the lyrics describe a soldier laying a field waiting for permission to kill the target. Which is why the song is called "the kill".

Then the last part of the song is a parallel situation featuring the same soldier. In this situation, the soldier is being held somewhere and is waiting to be executed.

I'm too lazy to expound past this, but basically put all three of these points together and you have your meaning.
