BoySetsFire – Walk Astray Lyrics 20 years ago
This is a great introduction to the misery index. It's a call to arms, a social critique. Sends a 'stop being passive' message with "Well I don't wanna sing about freedom anymore. I wanna see it, I wanna feel it". Rise up and stick it to the man, dont just talk about it.

The Lawrence Arms – The Raw and Searing Flesh Lyrics 20 years ago
sure it's a love song, but it reminds me of my uncle who passed away the day after thanksgiving (in november). i lived with him for ~4 months that year over the summer. we were planning on doing it again the next summer, having me live there again, but i cant spend that 4 months with him anymore. the verse about smoking 'tending the pyres of my frustrations' is in a sense how some of the family has dealt with the unexpected passing of my uncle, smoking. it's sad in a sense that it hits so close to home without even trying to. a beautiful song.

The Juliana Theory – Her Velvet Voice Lyrics 20 years ago
think he's singing about someone he loves, someone who was with someone he knew, or was abusive, or something...and he's been waiting for them to break up so patiently, he has loved her for a long time...hands frozen in his pockets. also "Plant your heels into the ground. If you could grow roots down, you'd be a tree by now.", i think this is referring to how long the two have been together, and he wants to be the voice of reason, he wants them to break up but she wont listen. the man she fell for fell apart, and since he fell apart he wants her more than ever..
Let me hear your voice, my one and only.
Let me see your face. Our love: like breathing.
Carry me away. I'm yours completely.
Hide me in your arms. I dont deserve it."
...but that last line makes it seem like maybe he was in part responsible/guilty (or just feels that way) for the break up, however it happened.

Good job pointing that out zipperhead, that sounds like too good to be coincidental

Wesley Willis – Dumpster My Ass Lyrics 23 years ago
this is a very accurate song about gang violence and talks a lot about how brutal and inconsiderate italians can be. "Dumpster my ass
Dumpster my ass
Dumpster my ass
Dumpster my ass "
This line is my favorite, it is talking about how he wants to get his ass thrown in a dumpster, *tear*.

he talks a lot about how the killing is all just a game, "aldi, its the stock up store"

Jimmy Eat World – Hear You Me Lyrics 23 years ago
I think this song is about a girl that gave this guy everything...and he had to move or leave her or something like that --abruptly, he couldn't tell her his true feelings--, and he feels the only way for him to be happy and to see her again is if he kills himself and he sees her in heaven

Jimmy Eat World – Caveman Lyrics 23 years ago
i think this song has something to do with a visit to a psychologist...maybe thats just me.

he's talking about someone finding out about his true self maybe..
