| Nickelback – Woke Up This Morning Lyrics | 23 years ago |

Ok- we were All wrong-check this out: "The song, which was written in January 2000, addresses two emotional issues that affected frontman Chad Kroeger during the creation of the track. The first was the loss of his grandmother, who passed away a few days before he started writing the lyrics. "I was just really unimpressed with the way the whole funeral took place," he said recently. "I felt it could have been handled a lot better. It was in this really small town where she met my grandfather and they started the family. That's why the song goes, 'I paid my last respects this morning on an early grave/ Already said goodbye, nothing left to say/ A tiny church, a tiny town and not a tear was spent/ Not how I wanted it, I'm hating all of this.' " "Woke Up This Morning" also addresses Kroeger's ex-girlfriend Jodi, who was the subject of the band's first smash hit, "How You Remind Me." After dealing with the pain of attending his grandmother's funeral, the singer had to return back home to his dysfunctional relationship. "That's where the next lines [in the song] come from," Kroeger said, " 'I've been a loser all my life, I'm not about to change/ If you don't like it there's the door, nobody made you stay/ Ain't a woman on the planet who can deal with this/ Not how I wanted it, I'm hating all of this.' " The whole thing's about a month in my life when I felt like sh-- when I woke up in the morning." |

| I've only heard this song once, and I absolutely love it! But I have no idea where to find it! What CD is it on? I didn't find it on The State. | |

I think this song is about a junkie, and the trips to the methdone clinic "Not like the last time I stood in line Just enough to keep me bouncing off the wall". |

| I love this song too. But I think its about a woman he just can't handle anymore. And all this time he thought he was the problem, that he could fix it, but now he realizes it's her that is so difficult and he's tired of playing her game. Especially the part where he says "next time you bleed" I think he's referring to next time you try this *hit you will be the one that hurts. I also think it's about a woman because of the reference to "label theif, find a better title suited for you." She's doesn't have the right to call herself a "girlfriend" because she doesn't treat him nice. | |

| I definately don't think Chad was suicidal. I just think it's about someone who has trouble expressing how they feel and someone who doesn't know how to deal with pain well so they avoid putting themselves in situations where they might get hurt. But then then they meet someone who "came along and tore this wall down around me, looks like you found me." and they realize what they have been doing, hiding from their feelings, they could end up alone like the person that was buried. | |
| Nickelback – Money Bought Lyrics | 23 years ago |
| This song is very LA. I think it's about a shallow girl the band came across while in LA that had money, and looks, but that was it, no emotional depth. She didn't have time for anyone she didn't think was worth her time, "shaking hands, nice to meet you, I don't know who you are" and has disdain for anyone without her kind of money, "Makes a joke about the alley man, never pleasured from the treasure in a garbage can." | |
