Angels and Airwaves – Secret Crowds Lyrics 8 years ago
Still listening to this in 2018. Love the lyrics. Especially the line "watch our words spread hope like fire" somehow stuck in my mind. I love how these lyrics express that we can actually achieve something through our words and actions. This song's message is so powerful...it definitely gave me hope. All in all this song reminds me that you should never stop dreaming of a better world.

Three Days Grace – Someone Who Cares Lyrics 8 years ago
These lyrics are deeply true.
Sometimes you don't just find a song but you find yourself in its lyrics when you are lost. And I think that's exactly what music is about: telling stories and sharing feelings that people can relate to.
After listening to this song I felt so understood. The lyrics mean really much to me... and I am thankful for musicians like TDG that express so much in one song.

Jack's Mannequin – Swim Lyrics 8 years ago
Those are some damn good lyrics! This song has probably saved the lives of many people (including me).
Love how they use "you gotta swim, don't let yourself sink" instead of simply saying "Move along, never give up".

Rise Against – House on Fire Lyrics 8 years ago
@[Toremate:24419] That is an interesting interpretation. At first I thought it was about a bad relationship, too. Turns out it was written about something completely different. I guess this shows how lyrics can express quite different things at once.

Actually Tim McIlrath explained that this song is about being a parent. It is about how stressful it can be to raise teenagers because they argue a lot and always want to get their way. And to educate those to reasonable adults can be tough at times.

Rise Against – Far from Perfect Lyrics 8 years ago
Well this song is kinda self-explanatory.
The words of the chorus are simple yet they have a really strong message. I like the use of metaphor in "masks we've worn up til now". It means people try to be perfect so hard that they hide their true identity. When you think about it... Aren't we all sometimes trapped in this insane drive for perfection? So this song expresses that we should allow ourselves more individuality.

Rise Against – Tragedy + Time Lyrics 8 years ago
To me this song is all about personal strengh.
No matter what tragedy in life hits you it's important that you keep on fighting. All the bad things you've experienced shape you and truely make you who you are now. And that's why "nothing matters but the pain" because the pain is what defines us.

Sure, the song could be about a break up... but to me personally it is more about how the end of any friendship can hurt you so badly that you lose yourself and start to disbelieve in good times. So this song's intention is to remind you that those good times will come for sure and that your wounds will heal within time, as the title already tells.
A very hopeful song that helped me through many dark phases.
