| Thrice – Betrayal Is A Symptom Lyrics | 24 years ago |
|
when i first heard these lyrics, i thought it was some sort of hint that dustin was turning from his religion or something. but.. it isn't. oh well. i'll just post what he wrote to me. Actually, the first step in becoming a Christian, is to realize that you are a sinner. Being honest with yourself and your heart is key to having a meaningful relationship with God. In this case, the angels are metaphors for anything good or pure, and the corruption of them is sin. The "isn't it sweet" is meant to be be darkly sarcastic, basically showing disgust for the human propensity to stumble, and to be imperfect. Not really much an uplifting song, but it is more for me a picture of what my sin is, and a reminder that I hate it. Hopefully it will serve as a picture of that to others who believe that wrong and right are not conventions of society. About all the lyrics on the album being darker, i believe this quote from Edgar Allen Poe sums up the reasoning behind it. "There are chords in the hearts of the most reckless, which cannot be touched without emotion." |

| Thrice – Under Par Lyrics | 24 years ago |
|
this song isn't necessarily about dustin's christianity. yes, he is christian, but even he says that he doesn't like to preach his religion though his lyrics. i'm sure this song could apply to a lot of situations. basically just about how he's trying to do what he wants to do and people are criticizing him for it in some way.. damn good song. well, damn good cd. but the illusion of safety is coming. buy the illusion of safety. |

| Thrice – Ultra Blue Lyrics | 24 years ago |
|
alright. basically dustin said that ultra blue is like staring at a perfectly blue sky.. and he liked the idea of juxtaposing that with revolution or a concept similarly harsh. but that part of the song is pretty vague even to him and it's one of his least favorite lyrics. it's one of my favorite songs to play though. awesome song. |

| Thrice – In Your Hands Lyrics | 24 years ago |
|
originally, in your hands started off like that. then dustin started singing the 'bound to this couch..' part really slow. it sounded good, but this is the pop punky song on the cd. so i guess it needed to be faster. basically a song about a girl. and ian stift wrote it with dustin. |
