Just want to correct the lyric.

"I watch the world through emotionless eyes"

Joy Division – Day of the Lords Lyrics 1 year ago
To me, a song about drug use. The interior of a drug house. The mingling of smacked out people every night, trying to get a fix and sometimes dying from it. Peer pressure. The physical effects of use and abuse. The questioning of why keep doing this.

The Sisters of Mercy – Ribbons Lyrics 1 year ago
This seems to me to be about war. The atrocities of war.

"I'm lying on my back now, the stars look all too near"
Lying wounded, near death.

"I was thinking about her skin"
"Love is a many splintered thing"
A double entendre.

"But she looked good in ribbons"
Another double entendre.

"Incoming"
Shouted as bombs drop from above.

"Flowers on the razor wire"
Self explanatory, anti-war.

This song is deep.

A classic! A clear renunciation of religion, specifically the Catholic church.

Elbow – The Blanket Of Night Lyrics 1 year ago
Corrected Lyrics:

Paper cup of a boat
Heaving chest of the sea

The ocean that bares us from our home
could save us
or take us for it's own
