Third Eye Blind – Motorcycle Drive By Lyrics 23 years ago
Agh this song reminds me of my ex-b/f. i moved to Fl. last summer. well, right now im in NY and i visited him and realized i'm still so in love w/ him. Well, i went to his house, having no idea what to say, heh, i slept on his couch when i went to visit him, and i knew i couldn't have him back. i felt so alive, yet, alone when i'm around him. And i know i'll go home to the beaches of florida and just chill on the sand watching the sun set and think of him

This is what i means to Stephan:
"That song started as a journal entry made on a trip to New York to visit a girl I used to go out with. Needless to say, the trip didn't work out. I went back to San Francisco and went surfing which is what the last verse is about. The main idea in the song is that sometimes when you're really lonely, you really feel alive and you feel like you know who you are.
Kevin and I both ride motorcycles...I currently have a 1972 Triumph 750 Tiger Twin. It's got more power than God"

Matchbox Twenty – Last Beautiful Girl Lyrics 23 years ago
my ex-b/f played this song for me after i broke up w/ him.
It starts out saying their relationship as ended; like everything else eventually ends, and they can't take back all the things they didn't mean to say. The guy is saying he's a fool for sticking around and no other fool would've. But he's thinking even if they were still together, she wouldn't be able to give him what he wants 100 percent. The girl broke his heart, it wasn't the first time and it won't be the last time she does it to a guy. And none of the guys she hurts will take her back if she was the last beautiful girl. He doesn't want to hear how she's sorry for all her mistakes and how she hurt him. She still wants to be friends and have him call her if he needs some1 to lean on. But everything has ended and he's going w/o her b/c he knows she will never be his.

And ugh, that's how it was w/ us and now i really love him and this song makes me cry. honestyormystery , he IS telling her she's the last beautiful girl in the world. Those are flat out the lyrics of the last lines....

Thursday – Dying In New Brunswick Lyrics 23 years ago
Hope this helps.. Geoff's words from an interview:
“Dying in New Brunswick” is one of the songs that started the band, because I had this one year that was pretty hard, where I’d say music pretty much saved my life. That girlfriend who I was totally in love with moved to New Brunswick, and her first weekend there, she was raped. It really messed her up, and she was never able to talk to me again because she blamed herself for being in the wrong place, which I definitely wouldn’t have held against her. She couldn’t face me anymore, and it was really hard because I moved out there right after that. I spent all this time in this city that I hated because everything reminded me of the fact that I lost the girl that I loved, and that she wasn’t doing OK either. That’s what the “I’m writing you this letter to let you know that I’m not all right” is about. Even though nothing really happened to me, I definitely felt like New Brunswick was dying."

Thursday – Porcelain Lyrics 23 years ago
As said...“Porcelain,” is obviously a reference to how fragile life can be. Geoff said, "One of my best friends in the world, the kid who basically raised me since I was a little kid and got me into hardcore, moved to San Francisco two years ago. Then he bought a shotgun from Wal-Mart and he shot himself."

Thursday – Concealer Lyrics 23 years ago
As Drowned Standards Said... It's about a really close friend of Geoff's when he was five... "He was one of those dirty kids that you go and play with and beat each other up, wrestle on the ground, and jump in leaf piles. It’s about the fact that his mom used to have to put make-up on him because she used to beat him so badly that she had to cover up all the bruises before he could go to school."... sad huh?
