OneRepublic – Light It Up Lyrics 12 years ago
I almost feel like this song is reflective of his personal experiences as a music producer. It's almost a nod to the Kelly Clarkson "Already Gone" fiasco.. especially at the part about the big shot symphony and such.
He's essentially saying I know what I'm doing and I can make hits better than you can.

The song is written from his point of view.

Evanescence – Oceans Lyrics 13 years ago
Seems like a breakup where she had to end it. The guy was uncertain of what he wanted and treated her poorly, and she could never satisfy him. But her love for him is so strong that she has to cross these "Oceans" to get over him.

Evanescence – The Only One Lyrics 13 years ago
Okay so there's a lot of discussion about religion here. Amy Lee has stated that this related to spirituality, but I don't think that is adjusted to a specific denomination.
She is simply saying that she doesn't want to be a victim to all the things in our society. It is a song about finding a sense of individuality in a world that deceives us to believe that following a certain paradigm will make us fulfilled.

The Fray – The Wind Lyrics 13 years ago
This song, as stated in several interviews, is about Joe King's divorce - and in a broader sense, it is the story of someone being forced to start over.
The speaker is floating in the sea, waiting for the wind to push him back in the direction he was going. It was as if he had found an island to make a life on but is now back out at sea.
It's a song about finding your way when everywhere you used to go no longer exists and everything is suddenly unfarmilar.

The lyrics above are incorrect. These are right.

Oh my god
I think I'm lost at sea
These silent waves
Are my company
And I lost the line between the sky and sea
And I'm wondering will the wind ever come for me?
Yeah

I don't know
I don't know where I am
Can you tell me?
Will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come again?

I see the sun coming up
Rising from the east
And I see the empire
Falling to her knees
And I lost the line between her and me
My troubles are gone if the wind ever comes for me
Yeah

I don't know
I don't know where I am
Can you tell me?
Will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come?

I dreamed I found a shoreline
You were standing there
I dreamed I found you waiting
You were waiting for me,
Waiting for me

Tried to kiss the emptiness
Lost the line between
Sky and sea
I feel the sun coming up
Coming up,
Coming up,
Coming up

I don't know
I don't know where I am
I will break or I will bend
Will the wind ever come again?
