Broken Social Scene – Shampoo Suicide Lyrics 20 years ago
i lovelovelovelove this song.
how did you figure out the lyrics?
cos these are completely different than anything i read on like forums and stuff.
like i thought it was "said you hate it all/ but you still use shampoo" and i always loved the idea of that.
anyways, this song is so beautiful in all its chaos. its always reminded me of the chaos of unrequited feelings for a close friend-all these different things going on in your head telling you different things.
i'm happy to see someone figured out lyrics though.

perfect song for when you realize the person you loved is actually an asshole.

Elliott Smith – Easy Way Out Lyrics 21 years ago
I think it's definitely a big "eff you" to a manipulative/deceiving person. But it's weird how themes like that happen without meaning to.

Elliott Smith – Between the Bars Lyrics 21 years ago
i never thought about it referring to alcholism but that seems very clear to me now.
i've always seen it as a sad sort of love song. like he sees this girl for who she really is-the good and the bad- and he wants to love her regardless. i always took the between the bars part as they're iliterally in transit between bars and he just sees her fully for the first time. i don't know. the alcholism idea makes much more sense. not every song is a love song.

Ben Kweller – On My Way Lyrics 21 years ago
i think this is truely about growing up and changing. it's pretty clear that good old bK has changed a lot since his radish days or even his last album. i think it's a very honest song, and that honesty pours out of it, even in the simple sounding recording.

Elliott Smith – Can't Make a Sound Lyrics 23 years ago
I really adore this song, everything about it. I'm not quite sure what it means but knowing Elliott Smith it's not happy. MAYBE it's about getting sick of having an image to live up to. not necessarily him, but anyone.

Bright Eyes – It's Cool, We Can Still Be Friends Lyrics 23 years ago
oh man. this happened to me a while ago and all I did for 3 days was drive in circles listening to this song. I would scream the words with tears streaming down my face and everytime the end would absolutely tear me apart. I almost got in a wreck a couple times. ha ha. but fortunately we got back together so I can listen to this song without wanting to get so so drunk and pass out.

Bright Eyes – Don't Know When but a Day Is Gonna Come Lyrics 23 years ago
I really liked the extra verse. He was in houston in october and he threw in this extra verse he only plays live and I loved it when he said "god save the gas prices" EXACTLY, CONOR OBERST! EXACTLY!

Bright Eyes – Arienette Lyrics 23 years ago
I agree with bright eyed girl on that. I always compared Arienette to Lucy in a tale of two cities in that she was all the good pure qualities in humans that could never all manifest in one single person. However I really like what Nick Dogg has to say about this song. as far as the words go, I love it. but the music scares the crap out of me.

Bright Eyes – Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and to Be Loved) Lyrics 23 years ago
I love how he reffers to bush as the cowboy president. that's hilariously disrespectful. this whole song is just complaining about what's wrong in the world and I think it would annoy me if it weren't so accurate.

Desaparecidos – Manana Lyrics 23 years ago
this song is awesome. just cos our generation is different from the baby boomers does not make us naive nor idealists.

Bright Eyes – Act of Contrition Lyrics 23 years ago
"just dust my heart and you will find
there are no fingers printed there
just the untouched place that lies inside
of every lonely boy tonight.
and all of this open air has caused me to choke
on your new found hope for me."
