| Thrice – Black Honey Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
@[onliberty:15953] Firstly, part of the beauty of art and Thrice's lyrics in particular is they can mean a lot of things to a lot of different things to different people, and that doesn't mean that anyone is wrong. I have a Thrice lyric tattoo and what it means to me is not what the song is about at all. With that said though, I really don't think that it is reading too much into it at all to realize that he was talking about the Middle East and that "black honey" is clearly a metaphor for oil. The explanation you've provided is a great way to look at it, and I'm sure Thrice would support that sentiment as well, but I do believe that this one of the less ambiguous songs in their catalog. |

| Smoking Popes – Megan Lyrics | 9 years ago |
| @[dillydadally:9013] I read all these interpretations and I think most of them are good ways to think about it and have a reasonable amount of evidence to support them, but yours is the only that really fits everything I think. The only thing that I think might be different is that I don't think Megan is dead. I think he's trying not to go into heaven until she gets there too, but in the end he couldn't wait for her anymore. | |
