| Jimmy Eat World – Thinking, That's All Lyrics | 23 years ago |
| I agree with aymier and bovelue's ideas. I think that time is a major theme. These lines: "there is no pride in seconds lost", "we can't go back for seconds lost", "wind your watch for seconds gone" are all about lost time or time that was wasted, as in a relationship or even something else. I think that this song is about a relationship which is worthless; that's why there are the lyc's, "smooth the sheets, no one was here". This illustrates the fact that the person wishes or tries to pretend that the relationship never happened. The line about winding your watch for seconds gone also goes along with this theme of lost time. --JimmyROX! | |
| Jimmy Eat World – Bleed American Lyrics | 23 years ago |
| I totally agree with MivcrowavableSkank! When I wore my Jimmy shirt at the the beginning of school, people were always asking me, "who is that?" now they're all like i love j.e.w.! and i'm like, you think you do b/c they were played on q102 - the "pop" radio station in my area. i hate it when people are band wagon jumpers. you know they started in 1994? so they're nowhere close to "new." well whatever- they soooooo rocked at the FEZ!!!!! dude i got a nod from the Zach cuz i was the only one in the pitt into it and jumpin up and down, it was soo great. HARDCORE JIMMY RULES! | |
| The Juliana Theory – If I Told You This Was Killing Me, Would You Stop? Lyrics | 23 years ago |

I think that everybody interprets the song differently, according to their experiences. I wrote a speech on this song because we were supposed to pick our favorite song (which was soooo hard!!). I chose a TJT song because a lot of their songs are deep and have lots of meaning. here's my opening intro: "Most of the time, there isn’t one definite meaning or message of a song. Songs are meant to have distinct meanings for different people. Brett Detar, the singer, who wrote this song, writes from his own life experiences. He may have been deceived by a person that he addresses in the song, “If I Told You This Was Killing Me, Would You Stop?”. When the writer realizes how deceptive and fake the other person is, he tells the person that he knows this now and that their relationship is useless. This song is about being so frustrated and hurt by someone who uses words as their weapon. " |
