Brand New – The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot Lyrics 12 years ago
The song is told from the guy's perspective, talking about how he's unsure whether them being together is a "safe bet." The smell before rain is something that presages something bad but smells good. The actual smell is something called petrichor. Well, the root "ichor" is a fluid that flowed in the blood of Greek gods.

Basically, he's saying he needs her to stay powerful, even if it might end badly.

Seahaven – Goodnight Lyrics 12 years ago
I think this song is about someone waiting to get justice for their partner cheating on them. The sun drying up the rain would be happiness but it doesnt happen and they're stuck in the storm.

God in their shoebox obviously is a gun, and it waiting for their finger means that it would only be fair to use it. The devil is the partner who keeps cheating. "I wont feel a thing if you don't feel what I feel" probably means that they're in love but they wouldnt care to use the gun if its that unrequited.

Now I'm just kinda guessing at the second verse but maybe the exit could resemble heaven or hell? It seems that they're giving their partner a chance to spill and I think it only makes sense if the "it must be easy to hold your tounge" would be sarcastic. The option is there "Where will you go?"

"Your safety came with distance but you foolishly fell into consistency" means that the cheater never really liked being close but the singer went along with it anyway because they loved them. "Place your hand where it does not belong" means to cheat, and the "vibrance that fills the pillow behind my head" keeps them up all night. "The one you chose to live within" means that the cheater committed and what they're doing is fucked up.

Pedro the Lion – Bad Diary Days Lyrics 12 years ago
The song is about a man finding out his partner is cheating on him. The first verse shows how innocent his thoughts were in the beginning with "She just has a funny way of loving me." Then he progresses toward doubt when he finds two tickets from "A movie I've never seen" but gives her the benefit of it with "She must have forgotten to mention girl's night out." In the last verse he confronts her about it and knows that she's lying when she says "it would not happen again."
