| Iron & Wine – Low Light Buddy of Mine Lyrics
| 12 years ago

It sounds to me like the "buddy" is a past self that he wants to forget. He sees how he was and is grateful that he is who is today. He realizes all that he has, all the pleasures and comfort of a new found companionate love, could never have been found if he was still as he had been. It's a song about change in a person, "new fruit humming in the old fruit tree". |

| Dinosaur Jr. – Poledo Lyrics

this song is about hopelessness. it reads more like a confession of feelings than a story. it's about giving up on yourself and turning your back to those that try to help you or put up with you (i detest your patience), turning your back on the world and how it laughs at you (jesus laughs). it speaks the feelings of turning on yourself, seeing only the disgusting nature you imagine yourself to exposition (That settle turning smirk that's always fixed upon my face), and being sickened at how anyone could see anything different. it's a feeling that leaves you wanting to be alone with your sickness so you can wallow in it, absorbing all of its potency. it's truly a very raw depiction of emotion |
