Regina Spektor – Oh Marcello Lyrics 7 years ago
I wonder if this song has something to do with Marcello from The White Devil. He is an Anti-Semitic, unlikeable character. Upon his murder, Schmoop summarizes: "Naturally, this proves pretty upsetting to their mother, Cornelia, but probably not to too many people reading the play." Maybe the song is from the point of view of his mother.

Dark Dark Dark – Daydreaming Lyrics 11 years ago
To me this song reminds me of this roadtrip I take every summer. The people I've met there are amazing and the freedom is overwhelming. All I ever think about is going back and the memories sometimes put me in a daze.

Phantogram – Don't Move Lyrics 12 years ago
This sounds to me as though she's with someone who only keeps her around because the person has this idea that being with someone will bring them out of their depression. "I’m not your nervous feeling," "I’m not your drinking problem," She's basically saying that she's not this person's coping method. The chorus also enforces this idea, "All I have to do is shake shake
Keep your body still
Keep your body still" She's the one who's doing all the work, having all the fun, but the other person isn't putting any effort into the relationship. Then, "Don’t you realize you’re fine
Or can’t you see that you’re fine
And you know you’re still alive" is her telling this person that they don't need her.
