Wavves – Demon to Lean On Lyrics 11 years ago
I love this song.

I personally think this is about the man's biggest conundrum. Choosing between finding a beautiful amazing woman and settling down, or burying yourself deeply into drug addiction and other things that we know are bad, but make us feel a distorted sense of satisfaction.

The first verse is about his experience with love and having a loved one in his life

The second verse is the opposite and how he feels when he doesn't have that love in his life

Holding a gun to my head
So send me an angel
Or bury me deeply instead
With demons to lean on
-

He's not happy with his life so he thinks maybe there is someone ( an angel ) who can make him feel better. Or he can bury himself deeply with bad things that make him feel better.

the next verse is again about not having a loved one in his life and feeling somewhat worthless

the numb part is just saying that he knows he has feeling and that he can feel love and he's not just some mindless drone or something


Just my interpretation. I really like the song.

MGMT – An Orphan of Fortune Lyrics 11 years ago
I personally think this song is about drug addiction.

It can't stop now
-
He can't stop using the drugs

The signs keep changing on me
-
He's not sure if he's taking them just for creativity anymore?

like a shimmering bell
long waves enveloping me
and my plastic mind
so chewed and shrieking all the time
-
He's describing how the drugs make him feel as well as how he feels off them in this crazy society we live in

Feels it whirling by
Morning after noon and night
And I can't get down
-
He's taking the drugs on a daily basis and can't stop

If I don't feel right
polishing off the sand
-
If he it's hard for him coming off the drugs

Lay with me and we'll erode as gently as we can into twilight
-
He hopes someone will help him coming down from his addiction

This is just my interpretation. Really beautiful song.

Wavves – 9 Is God Lyrics 12 years ago
i think the bullet in his head is him taking a hit of some good marijuana. and then he takes another hit and he starts feeling it more. Nine is referring to taking 9 hits of this strong marijuana and you're so stoned it's like you found the secrets to the universe.

maybe i'm just stoned.

Pink Floyd – The Gnome Lyrics 12 years ago
I personally think this song is about Syd Barret himself. The gnome's name sounds a lot like Crimble Crumble. Which I interpret as Syd Barret eventually losing himself to drugs. I also think him discovering LSD is the new way for gnomes to say hooray.
