Collective Soul – Perfect Day Lyrics 21 years ago
No matter how bad her day, or her life is at this point, she'll find a way to get through it. She's a tough cookie!

submissions
Collective Soul – Over Tokyo Lyrics 21 years ago
I remember when we used to happy together, and something went wrong. Now I'm leaving, and going away where there are no bad memories, and no worries. This is where I can "search for happiness."

submissions
Collective Soul – Not The One Lyrics 21 years ago
I really liked you, and I tried to get your attention, but no matter how hard I tried, you never saw me. You need someone there for you, but I guess "I'm not the one" to help you.

submissions
Collective Soul – No More No Less Lyrics 21 years ago
I may be lonely and vulnerable, and easy to tear down, emotionally, and physically..but please don't "bring me down." I'd most rather have you help me and 'save me,' because there is "promise in the night," and there is a light on the other side of the tunnel, and I want you to help me get there.

Collective Soul – Next Homecoming Lyrics 21 years ago
It's kinda hard to put into words, but here I go. I'm here, with the "cage wide open," so come on in, I even "cleared the road wide open, so put your hand on the whell and steer..." meaning, I'm waiting for you to take advantage of what I've done for you. Kind of like, 'my arms are wide open, so when you're ready, come, let me hold you. I'll be here until your next 'Next Homecoming.'

submissions
Collective Soul – Needs Lyrics 21 years ago
I agree with MsTaR1981. He's saying he doesn't need anybody, but he really does deep inside. He's willing to deny it, but in the end he realizes..."you're all I need when the water runs deep."

submissions
Collective Soul – Maybe Lyrics 21 years ago
I miss you now that you're gone, and I don't understand why you had to go. I guess I "need to recognize any comfort you might show." I soon realized that you are better off where you are right now because, "maybe, God you found." Now you're a singing angel. You may be gone, but your memory is still with us..."while your voice is now singing on high, angel on high."

submissions
Collective Soul – Love Lifted Me Lyrics 21 years ago
Okay listen up! So you're not happy? Just follow my example and I'll show you how 'love lifted me!!' It's time to change and 'move to higher ground.'

submissions
Collective Soul – Listen Lyrics 21 years ago
I think its about someone afraid to love, and since they've denied themselves that for so long, they don't realize that 'love screams everywhere.' Now they want to feel it and don't know where to look.

submissions
Collective Soul – Link Lyrics 21 years ago
Now that I've taken time to cool off (sleeping to encompass/develop myslef), I'm now able to funciton properly and willing to show you love.

submissions
Collective Soul – In Between Lyrics 21 years ago
There is tension between us and we can't agree. We usually don't work it out, so we're both stuck in the middle of nothing and being an incomplete couple. We need to 'separate.'

submissions
Collective Soul – In A Moment Lyrics 21 years ago
Even if we're fighting all the time, we can't give up because we might atually work something out..."in a moment, it could happen, we could wake up and be laughing."

submissions
Collective Soul – How Do You Love Lyrics 21 years ago
If you're completley oblivious to the love people try to show you, "how do you love?" How are you living without giving and reciving love?

submissions
Collective Soul – Him Lyrics 21 years ago
This song could mean a lot of things. I kinda of got the idea that it was about Ross. And then I opened my mind a bit more and thought about it. Another impression I got was him thinking about, 'Why would she choose him over me? What does he do and say that's different from me?' "Were his lies easier than my truth to believe?" Meaning, he's only lying to look good to you.

submissions
Collective Soul – Heavy Lyrics 21 years ago
To me this song means what it pretty much says. Someone is pushing him down with their problems, and weighing him down. Or he simply doesn't like them, and they keep pulling him behind by tagging along.

submissions
Collective Soul – Heaven's Already Here Lyrics 21 years ago
This song is really direct and clear. He's saying that since his wife (girlfriend...anyone he loves, really) is next to him, everything is perfect. It couldn't get anymore perfect (Heaven's already here.)

submissions
Collective Soul – Heaven Lyrics 21 years ago
He wants the light of heaven to brighten, and shine on everything. What ever the light hits love will be there. Bring on the love! (Heaven, let your light shine down)

submissions
Collective Soul – Happiness Lyrics 21 years ago
It sounds like he's saying, "Check out how great I'm doing without you."

submissions
Collective Soul – Goodnight, Good Guy Lyrics 21 years ago
To me it's saying he was doing fine about forgetting about a girl until someone reminded him of her. Then it comes back and haunts him, and he can't get her out of his mind.

submissions
Collective Soul – Giving Lyrics 21 years ago
He loves to learn and he's thankful for everything he's able to learn and feel, but he wants to know what more love feels like. If give me more love, I promise not to bug you anymore. He's longing to know what love feels like.

submissions
Collective Soul – Generate Lyrics 21 years ago
I sort of got the hint after reading it over and over, and listening to the sound of the music, that he's wondering why someone (girlfriend, friend...etc) is mad at him. If you're so mad at me, come out and say it because appearantly I don't care what you're feeling until you tell me what I did to make you mad. You're making yourself look bad.

submissions
Collective Soul – Gel Lyrics 21 years ago
To me it's saying "you know you can't resist me, so why avoid me....'lets gel.'"

submissions
Collective Soul – Full Circle Lyrics 21 years ago
It sounds like he's feeling great about something(love), only to be torn down and judged by others on what he feels. Soon fighting for himslef, he shows that they can't get him down, and that love is too strong to destroy.

submissions
Collective Soul – Forgiveness Lyrics 21 years ago
To me it says he's done something wrong, and he just wants to forget it and move on, but he knows he needs to apologize and be forgiven, then try to show his love again..."then tempt my heart with love's display."

submissions
Collective Soul – Everything Lyrics 21 years ago
The first couple sentences sounds like his oblivious to what's going on...kind of blank in the face and the way he interacts with people. Then it kind of sounds like he's aware of it, and he wants to be taught how to be normal, then everything will be okay.

submissions
Collective Soul – Energy Lyrics 21 years ago
It's like he knows people are talking about him, and he's doing all he can do to cover up his dorkyness, and be cool, but then soon realizes, why 'waste my energy' to impress people whom I don't even socialize with?

submissions
Collective Soul – Disciplined Breakdown Lyrics 21 years ago
There's nothing that really quite sticks out at me, but I feel that his life, emotions, and control are getting darker, and he's losing it, fast, and hard.

submissions
Collective Soul – December Lyrics 21 years ago
If you hate me so much, why follow me around and choose to observe the examples I try to set. I'm doing what I feel is right, and if you don't like it, well..."turn your head now baby, and just spit me out!"

submissions
Collective Soul – Dandy Life Lyrics 21 years ago
Oh, Ross Childress...what a great song!!! It seems to me, it was kind of about himself and the band. It's like he's saying eveyone (as in him), wants to 'be loved in their own way,' by 'haning on every word.' While jumping between groups of people, he's hoping someone will say something nice about him and like him for who he really is.

submissions
Collective Soul – Crown Lyrics 21 years ago
It sounds to me that he's losing faith, but he still believes, he needs to be alone to go and think and ask questions about what he believes.

submissions
Collective Soul – Crowded Head Lyrics 21 years ago
There's so much confussion, lies, crulety, greed, and pity, that your head literally gets 'crowded,' and you can't think.

submissions
Collective Soul – Counting The Days Lyrics 21 years ago
BOOM! He can't wait to get out and do stuff, live life to the fullest "Dig it, get it, dig it!" as in, FIND ME SOMETHING TO DO! ..."break these chains!!" It's like a kid with ADHD.

submissions
Collective Soul – Compliment Lyrics 21 years ago
To me I get the feeling that he started out small and innocent inside, and started growing and realizing that the world can be a scary place, and there is 'more out there' to discover.

submissions
Collective Soul – Collection Of Goods Lyrics 21 years ago
Stop hating and start loving.

submissions
Collective Soul – Burning Bridges Lyrics 21 years ago
He's saying he's sorry for what he's done, and he's trying to fix it, and asking it she'll forgive him, if he burns bridges of what he's done in the past, and promises never to go back.

submissions
Collective Soul – Breathe Lyrics 21 years ago
I agree, I you want to love, you've got to "Breathe." Once you breathe, the seed will be planted and it will grow into love as long as you keep breathing (loving, working togethe, etc...).

submissions
Collective Soul – Bleed Lyrics 21 years ago
I think it's saying that it's okay when we hit the point of hating life, because everyone's got to 'bleed' sooner or later...and if you hold it all in, you're going to start 'burning alters,' or in other words...go crazy.

submissions
Collective Soul – Blame Lyrics 21 years ago
I think it's about him telling someone else that they can blame all the crap, and what happened on him, ONLY until he has realized that they've screwed up too.

submissions
Collective Soul – Boast Lyrics 21 years ago
Like the title, "Boast," it sounds like someone debating in their mind whether to tell eveyone about something wonderful. When they open their mouth, they, "Feel the water rise," and can't stop boasting, soon they're swimming in lies!!

submissions
Collective Soul – After All Lyrics 21 years ago
I sort of get the hint that it's about someone who thinks they know all they need to know, but then realizes they're wrong.

submissions
Collective Soul – 10 Years Later Lyrics 21 years ago
I think the same as both....does this have anything to do with Ross leaving?!
