| Regina Spektor – Chemo Limo Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| She had a dream that she was a mother of four diagnosed with cancer. In the dream, she died and money was left to take care of her children. When 'Benjamin Franklin' went in and talked to her insurance company, they said that it would be okay anyway because there was enough money to insure that her kids were taken care of. She opted against the chemo most likely so the money would be there after she died because she views the cancer as a death sentence. The limo ride was one of the last things she wanted to do with her children as a happy time but at some point in the ride, she just keeps thinking about how much she's going to miss her children. At least she got to go out in style so her kids were happy instead of letting them see the chemo make her all tired. | |
| Julia Nunes – First Impressions Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
The first verse is about getting used to people seeing through her smile. More than likely it's about being dragged out by friends to meet new people and stay active, stop moping. She's gotten used to this and also probably used to seeing it register on the person she's just met's face that something is making her unhappy. She's going to try to keep up the happy facade, but when she's distracted for one moment and lets her mind wander, she goes straight back to remembering the one she's lost. Now this may be a literal loss of a loved one or a loss in terms of a serious relationship. I'm inclined to believe it's the latter. Come on guys; it's Julia Nunes. She writes sad songs about boys breaking up with her. The chorus seems to me like not being able to sleep because she's alone in the bed. I know all too well how much that sucks and how difficult that is. She doesn't want to wake up alone and it doesn't feel right. Based on the second verse, she'd rather just stay sleep deprived than deal with the whole sleeping alone deal. She also doesn't want him to haunt her dreams. Again, she's trying to put on a happy face but finds it impossible to pretend nothing's wrong. "I thought I was fine, but it looks as if I might, Not make it through the night." This part leads me to believe she finally tried to sleep but she knows she can't do it. |

| Fall Out Boy – Sugar, We're Goin Down Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Definitely God complex. Don't see why there was even an argument about it. A God complex is like thinking that you have a God-like ability to choose such things as who lives and who dies. So in other words, it's a metaphor, referring to holding a gun with the intent to kill someone as a 'God complex'. | |
| Queen – Liar Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Basically a 'boy who cried wolf' type tale. They have lied so many times, no one is willing to listen. The person accepts that they have done wrong, but they also long to tell someone something without it being dismissed immediately as untrue. | |
| Queen – Let Me Live Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This song is about being taken advantage of and wanting to break free from that. It's basically a power struggle, one has submitted themselves for so long and finally realises the need to be free. | |
| Queen – Las Palabras de Amor (The Words of Love) Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Basic Brian May slushy song. It's basically just that everyone needs love. | |
| Queen – In the Lap of the Gods Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Well, to me, this is a tragic tale of loving someone but not knowing if you're able to express it enough. Leaving it to God to decide how it goes. Somehow, I get a feeling that there is something drug-related going on beneath the surface, but that's probably just me. | |
| Queen – Dear Friends Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| If you ask me, this song is about someone dying and the song is written for their friends. I mean, it's so obvious, the first time I heard it, I was certain that's what it was about and it nearly made me cry! "So dear friends, your love has gone only tears to dwell upon." I mean that line, the opening alone is enough to give that impression. I think it's really sad, and kind of a tragic attempt of the deceased to communicate with their friends. Brilliant writing by Brian May and I loved Freddie's voice on this song. | |
