| Royal Canoe – Birthday Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
In an interview on Red Mag Matt Peters explains it as so: “That’s kind of a cryptic one. That was actually written a while before the rest of the song, and as we were working on ‘Birthday’, it kind of just seemed too perfect not to use… The pronoun ‘you’ is more a sneaky way to say ‘me'; the ‘you’ is a royal ‘you’ more than anything. It’s that feeling of, if you don’t act — if you don’t change your mind — at some point, everything’s going to change around you, and you can’t control it, and you’re just going to be left standing there. That’s a really bad description of it, but I think it kind of speaks for itself.” This song's been bugging me for a while and when they released the track by track video I pretty much went crazy when the one song they didn't explain was this one.

| Mother Mother – Oh Ana Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| How I first saw this was the song is about a guy who keeps doing all these stupid things being a dare devil and always getting in trouble for it. Every time he gets a girlfriend they break up soon because of how he acts so idiotic. Then he finds this girl named Ana who as he puts it "can't kill" "chase away". And instead of leaving she helps him when he's in trouble. "Ana's safety" to me sounds like "Ana save me". | |
