| Death Cab for Cutie – Long Division Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
the song is about the ending of a relationship - not being able to get out of it unhurt, although that's what is wished:
And they carried on like long division
Cause it was clear with every page
Oh, that they were further away
From a solution that would play
Without a remain, remain, remain, remainder (4X) |

I think its the kinda song with which u start the B side of the cassete.It IS a fine song though.
I don't get one thing though,after reading all the above comments,that why do people thing R.E.M. has made sad and depressing music? I've been listening to them for 6 years now.Never felt that way.The pre Warner Bros stuff is their best.They do have some songs that are pretty meaningful and deep.But nothing depressing there. |

I think this song is about being aloof,naive and clueless at the same time. |

Michael Stipe said on Perfect Square that this song is about being an American in 2003,and i guess nothing much has changed since.so it applies well to the current year also. |

| R.E.M. – What If We Give It Away? Lyrics

The line sounds like 'What if we give it all away'. I think the song is about moving on in life,leaving the worries and/or worldly pleasures behind. |

I believe the song describes some sort of farm,and the workers being selected for harvesting work,like picking cotton for example. |
