| Sondre Lerche – Private Caller Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| I came back to this song because I'm trying to pick our wedding song. We got engaged March 1st. :) | |
| Hawksley Workman – Safe and Sound Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| I'm checking out all my favorite romantic Hawksley songs to see if any strike the right cord for my wedding song. | |
| Hawksley Workman – Sweetest Thing There is Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| This song is hauntingly gorgeous. | |
| fun. – Out on the Town Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I love this song! It reminds me of some of the songs from the 80's with the catchy verses and chorus. | |
| fun. – We Are Young Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
my lover she's waiting for me just across the bar My seats been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar and I know I gave it to you months ago I know you're trying to forget but between the drinks and subtle things the holes in my apologies you know I'm trying hard to take it back so if by the time the bar closes and you feel like falling down I'll carry you home What I gather from this part of the song is the scar could be physical but I see it more of an emotional scar from a break up or fight. He sees his girl sitting across from him at the bar and the guy in glasses is probably asking why she's so down. She's trying to forget and move on but all the little things keep popping up. Meanwhile the singer is sorry it ever happened and has tried to apologize but the best the girl has managed to do is deflect him but he still will be there for her if she ever finds she needs him to lean on. |

| The Magnetic Fields – Let's Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| the only thing i can think of is that it's a lyrics typo and they were actually referring to cabbits in the song which is a fictional cat/rabbit hybreed. a japanese anime called tenchi muyo has a character called ryo-ohki who is a cabbit. http://blog.funimation.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/cabbit1.png | |
| Rihanna – Cockiness (Love It) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Lol no comments? Nobody has -ANY- theories on what on earth this song could possibly be about? | |
| Sondre Lerche – Private Caller Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| It reminds me of my relationship now. I've known this guy as my friend for over two years and one day I woke up and realized I had feelings for him and he had been there all along. | |
| Barenaked Ladies – War On Drugs Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I'm not a fan of Amy Winehouse but the first few verses and some of the rest of the song in general remind me of her so much especially after her death a few days ago. | |
| Ben Folds – Saskia Hamilton Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I wonder how Saskia Hamilton feels about this song because I'm sure someone has told her about it. | |
| Weezer – Put Me Back Together Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I love this song so much. When he sings "Here it's clear" right after the "I know I'd just be lying" line is my favorite part because of the emotion in River's voice. | |
| Weezer – In The Mall Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I'm pretty sure it's about going to the mall. | |
| Belle & Sebastian – The Ghost of Rockschool Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
She's in her tower And she's beautiful, sure The quicker you learn she has no soul to discern At least no business of yours You bear the vacuum of scars when he sings this part the music sounds like U2's All I Want Is You |
|
| Ben Folds – Claire's Ninth Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I could be wrong but I think it's a story about a girl named Claire and her parents take her out on her birthday but it's awkward and not much fun because they're divorced and don't seem to get along well. The singer is singing to Claire and wishes that (maybe) she was old enough to understand why things between her parents didn't work out. I really like the last verse because when there's a child involved with a couple divorced they are all that's left as some kind of proof of what used to be a happily married couple. | |
| Kanye West – Runaway Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
24/7 365 Jenny Stays On My Mind it's actually "pussy stays on my mind" |
|
| Coldplay – Violet Hill Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I want to be a soldier The captain of some sinking ship with snow Far below I'm pretty sure it's: I don't want to be a soldier. |
|
| Sia – Academia Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think this is my favorite song from the new album. And if I am a number I'm infinity plus one and if you are five words you are afraid to be the one And if you are a number, you're infinity plus one and if I'm four words then I am needing of your love. Amazing verse but the entire song is amazing in my opinion. |

| Gavin DeGraw – Overrated Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I always saw it as about sex, too. | |
| Aqualung – Pressure Suit Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| The line "I know I let you down." is actually "I will not let you go" | |
| The Killers – My List Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Brandon said he wrote it for his wife so basically it's a love song. | |
| The Killers – Bones Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Actually someone just confirmed that it's "never got bold" which makes a lot of sense. | |
| The Killers – Sam's Town Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Not yet. These lyrics were taken from a live version and I'll edit it as soon as we have clear lyrics. | |
| Ringside – Strangerman Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I agree with Joseph but I think it might be more so about a father/son relationship and how it can be hard for a kid whose father doesn't really want much to do with them or pay attention. | |
| Jesse Spencer – molly smiles Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Yes, he currently plays Dr. Robert Chase (the Australian) on House M.D. | |
| Barenaked Ladies – Tonight Is The Night I Fell Asleep At The Wheel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
It's NOT a love song. He's saying the girl is the last thing he's worried about. You're the last thing that's on my mind I wish I could tell you the way that I feel I believe he was on his way to break up with her and the ending "You're the last thing on my mind" is him saying, he's still thinking about everything and everyone but her when he dies. |
|
| Metric – Wet Blanket Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I just figured it was a different version than I had. I dont see why the lyrics would be included at the end if they weren't in the song unless someone is trying to promote Morrissey. | |
| Ben Folds Five – Don't Change Your Plans Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I had a teacher perform and dedicate this to me once because he's a huge BF/BFF fan like me. I'll never forget it. | |
| Taylor Hicks – Do I Make You Proud Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| It grew on me little by little but it's a wonderful song for Taylor. | |
| Coldplay – Ladder to the Sun Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This is in my top three Coldplay songs along with Fix You and Politik. I found it interesting that they mention a ladder to the sun in Talk: So you take a picture of something you see In the future where will I be? You can climb a ladder up to the sun Or a write a song nobody has sung or do Something that’s never been done, do Something that’s never been done I wonder if there's a connection between the two songs. |
|
| Barenaked Ladies – Yes, Yes, Yes Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| The naked song for Everything for Everyone was said by them that it was (possibly) never going to be released because it was the most foul song they had ever written. | |
| Belle & Sebastian – Beautiful Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I agree with theyletme. I've felt like Lisa too. I heard this song last night and it sounded so familiar. Like I had heard it before. Definitely one of my favorite Belle and Sebastian songs. |
|
| Metric – Wet Blanket Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Oh my goodness! As much as I love this song and Morrissey I can't believe I never noticed this: “you’ll never believe me so why don’t you find out for yourself then you’ll see the glass hidden in the grass Those lyrics are from a Morrissey song, Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself. The Killers did an awesome cover of it as well. The next part: bad seeds come and go for which you must allow sick down to my heart that’s just the way it goes” should actually be: Bad scenes come and go For which you must allow Sick down to my heart That's just the way it goes |

| OK Go – A Million Ways Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Sit back, matter fact, teasing, toying, turning, chatting, charming, hissing, playing the crowd Play that song again Another (...) A nod, a glance, a half-hearted bow The blank (...) is klonopin. It a medicine for people who have panic attacks. Since I used to take it that word stuck out when I heard the song. |
|
| The Killers – All the Pretty Faces Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| They're going to go into the studio this fall, have it wrapped up in the winter, have mixed and put out by spring. | |
| The Killers – Show You How Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| The begining is Brandon singing on Dave's voicemail. When they couldn't meet up that's how they shared lyric ideas. | |
| The Killers – On Top Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Their album came out March 04' and he proposed in October 04' so probably not. I heard someone say it was about sex though. I could see that. Finding that special someone and sharing that special moment with them. "But I've been waiting this whole night But I've been down across the road or two But now I've found the velvet sun That shines on me and you" |
|
| The Killers – Soft Surrender (Where Is She?) Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Yeah the socks part doesn't seem quite right. o_O; Changed some of the bits. I didn't type them myself, I got them from thekillersonline.net I remember reading the mom was a little shocked by the fact The Killers wrote this song. |
|
| Bleu – Watching You Sleep Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| This is a sweet sounding song that from the first listen sounds really sweet but when you really listen to it, you realize the guy is a stalker. | |
| Jem – Wish I Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| It's about a couple, where one gets a job offer in the city and has to move there where as the other one doesn't want to and so they spilt even though they're in love. The singer even tells their lover, if they're unhappy, that they'll be welcomed back home. | |
| Jem – Flying High Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
It sounds like a reference to Romeo and Juliet in this part: I know, oh yes I know that we can’t be together but, I just like to dream It’s so strange the way our paths have crossed how we were brought together hmmm, it’s written in the stars it seems Romeo and Juliet crossed paths at the party, which Romeo would have never gone to if his cousin han't talked him into going. Romeo and Juliet were also called star-crossed lovers. |
|
| The Killers – Jenny Was a Friend of Mine Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This song in my opinion is about a guy being questioned by the cops for having been the last person to see Jenny alive. Hence, the past tense in the title. From the way the lyrics are described, the singer is very clearly the killer. I know my rights, I've been here all day and it's time For me to go, so let me know if it's alright I just can't take this, I swear I told you the truth She couldn't scream while I held I close I swore I'd never let her go |
|
| The Killers – Andy, You're a Star Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Nope, it's Andy. This song is from a stalker's point of view. "On the match with the boys, you think you're alone" The person thinks they're alone, but the stalker is following them. Or if not a stalker, a girl (or possibly a guy) who took their obsession with their favorite sports player too far and is on trial for it. "In the staff when the verdict is in" Or at least that's what I think. |
|
| The Smiths – I Won't Share You Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Well if it's about Johnny Marr and Morrissey is saying 'I Won't Share You' then the woman Morrissey is maybe referring to is Angie, who has been Johnny's wife since 1986. Morrissey was probably happier when he didn't have to share Johnny's attention with Angie. | |
