| Braid – What A Wonderful Puddle Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| This song hit me like a sack of bricks to the head today. The lines about white lies, insincerity, and especially a puddle being something "small and impermanent" ... it all sounds like a group of extremely close friends that drifted apart, perhaps as a result of drugs, or maybe something less obvious, like suspicious-mindedness. I tend towards the latter. | |

| Braid – Grace Car Part One Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I would suggest that the music-vs-heart thing implies a conflict between the writer's need to write songs and his desire for a stable, normal relationship. It's likely that, especially for music like Braid's, that one would encroach on the other... no? | |
| Mad At Gravity – In Vain Lyrics | 23 years ago |
| ...... Makes good sense... but for some reason, I kinda feel like there's something a bit more than that. Heh heh. But hey, maybe I'm wrong, 'cuz it kinda feels like you hit the bullseye. | |
| Mad At Gravity – Stay Lyrics | 23 years ago |
| I've always wanted to know, is there a non-acoustic version of this song? That's the only one I can find on KaZaA, the acoustic... and I'll be honest, I don't know if it would sound great non-acoustic, so I'm curious. =D | |

What, you mean no one likes this song enough to think of a meaning?! I'm still spent on this song, but it's my favorite by Mad at Gravity. The guitars of the verses remind me of winter. Heh. Someone help me, I'm kind of stuck. |

Alright... so people like the song. Cool. =P Anyone up for a meaning? There are many ways this song can go, it just depends on the way you think about it. On the surface, it's quite easily a stoner song. Skies turning purple, mustard drenched cucumbers, and talking flies? But, losers like me like to take the song a bit deeper, 'cuz we know that's just what Incubus wants, right? =D The first perspective is that the speaker is going through a large change in life, that everything is twisting itself inside out and he doesn't know in from out or black from white any more. If we're looking at it this way, it could lean toward a more tragic change, hence the "I forgot to remember my pain". Maybe at the end he gets so depressed he turns to drugs? God knows... all I can say is this is the lesser favorite of my two descriptions... This seems more logical... My other theory is that the speaker is complaining about people who look to the future too much. He is sick of people who are too busy asking "What if this, what if that?!" to actually look around at what's happening around them. Though, this theory tends to leave some of the other lyrics, though, which... well... ya know. The cocaine/rogaine part is kind of unexplained yet, but I'm sure it can be explained logically in this kind of theory... I'll leave that up to the rest of you. But hey, who cares about the Goddamn lyrics?! Ah, this song is so much fun to play on bass... |
