| The Lumineers – Submarines Lyrics | 11 years ago |

Many here miss the mark by NOT knowing their history. The US Coast Guard sunk MANY submarines off the east coast during WWII. Many German (and I assume Japanese, too) sabatours and spies came into the US via Submarine. There are several local legends all along the Eastern Seaboard (and I assume, western, as well) about people seeing enemy submarines and even capturing German spies... Many of these subs are still down there and accesable to divers... U-701 and U-352 off Capa Hateras, NC U-869 off New Jersey coast U-550 of Cape Cod, Mass. History, today, always makes it seem as if WWII was "over there." It wasn't! It was right here, too! |

The song is about "growing up." the last step in that "growth" is learning to Compromise or "self-sacrifice." "It takes a man to live It takes a woman to make him compromise" He's learned there are more important things in life! |

Love this interpretation...I have lived with this girl for 22 years, now. We raised two kids together... there is pleasure in pain... She's really perfect in every other way.. i will never fully hold her heart and she will never allow herself to be close enough to me to get hurt... Maybe after 23 years, she'll give in... |

My thought is that the song is about a "disconnect" in a relationship - probably sexual. It is scary to think about, but it happens. They are close, probably intimate or even married, but for whatever reason, they lost the "spark." They still "love" and enjoy the other's company. They still respect the other and enjoy spending time with the other, but cannot "connect" in one area (Lyric: last piece of the puzzle, but you just can't make it fit...) There is some piece of their relationship that is missing, probably sexual incompatibility. They both realize it's a problem, but neither of them did anything to create it (Lyric: "no one is to blame). Lyric: "aspirations in the clouds, but your hopes go down the drain..." the "disconnect" is always being worked around and each is hoping for the best, but it always ends up causing the other pain. They can see the problem, but the lyric: "The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost..." leans toward both not being able to overcome their one little difference. They want so much to to make the other happy, but they cannot do it, for whatever reason (Lyric: "You can feel the punishment, but you can't commit the sin). So they avoid the subject, only to make the pain worse... Lyric: "Some break the rules, and let you cut the cost..." Seems to lean toward "Cheating" or "leaving,” but their "love" just won't let them do it, so they keep trudging forward - 90% happy... And “no one, ever, is to blame...” |

ok, follow me, THIS SONG IS DEEP! the song is about a little BOY who WANTS to be kidnapped. The beginning of the video starts with a French girl talking. The subtitles on the video are WRONG!! As a matter of fact, they are the exact opposite of what she is saying. First, she is NOT talking/Praying to God, she is writing in her diary. She does NOT say "Dear God" as the subtitles say. She says: "Chere Journal" which translates "Dear Diary." What she says (also the words written in the diary in the video): "Dear Diary - Why me? I am not loved. i have never felt so sad. If only it was like in the movies, but it's not. I want someone to take me. soon, the single thing that is certain is that i will catch my death." I definitely think the opening line is: "I think I found help" - The kid is referring to those who she hopes will come get her. She talks about: "They'll take me from me my bed, Leave everything that is worth a single cent and just take me instead..." The kid wants to be taken from their current situation. But mostly, the kid wants to be "wanted" by her new parents. With this line: "That they could shoot but that's not fun, 'Cause then they're killing their stolen son." The kid is saying the "felons" won't kill (hurt) him because what they really want is a child of their own. At the end of the video, the "new mom" is "burying" the "stolen son's" past. The child is not going there "voluntarily." But in the end is happy since the closing line is not "we're gonna die;" the ending line is "I think I found love..." This signifies the kid accepting the "new parents" and a rejection of the old life... |
