| Heaven & Hell – Breaking into Heaven Lyrics | 7 years ago |
|
This song is an anthem of the Damned. "There's a lost horizon": "Breaking into heaven" by taking possession of the human soul. Temptation leads to sin, sin leads to greed and greed to madness. What comes next? The self destruction of Evil: The greedy being becomes totally egocentric and so a new war of all against all begins. The Damned stand outside your door. Are you going to open up the door or "lock up the wolves"? As always, it's up to you. |

| UFO – Rock Bottom Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
What I get from these lyrics? In my opinion the song speaks of an overdose and for youth gone astray. A young princess with a most noble soul is going to die. She can't reach the heaven she wished with the drugs - heaven does not open this way - but God's wings are still above her. Her lips are cold though. Her lover is desperate. "Where do we go from here?" It's night and it's cold, and she may not pass the night if she isn't already dead. Will the daylight "reveal her soul?" The young boy promises that he will stay beside her. "I won't sleep". He has so much things he wants to tell her which she won't be able to listen. "You'll never know". This is the "rock bottom" of a youth who tried to "get high" and wished for a blessing. This is my interpretation. I believe that UFO have managed to express in that song the sensitivity of their era and to include the wounds of a whole generation. The chorus of "Rock Bottom" is not a song. It is a cry of agony and a prayer. |

| Dire Straits – You & Your Friend Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
This is the song of a loner. Out of the meanings offered, I'd also vote for the sinful one. The loner meets two sluts in a bar and spends a night together with them. After some time he is again desperate for some contact. "Will you and your friend come around and get on down, or are you going to let me down? If you still talk to one another, let me know". He fears that they may let him down, forget that he exists, find some other guys - and that he may spend another night alone. He can barely speak, his body and soul are full of sin and rejection. |
