The Birthday Massacre – Kill The Lights Lyrics 19 years ago
^^ Ooh, I agree. It didn't really sound like 'gusher' but I couldn't figure out what it was. Glass shoe fits so much better too!

The Birthday Massacre – Kill The Lights Lyrics 19 years ago
Yeah the one I heard on their VF page isn't like that either. It's:

This story's missing a wishing well
No mirror to show and tell
No kiss that can break the spell
I'm falling asleep

Every Prince is a fantasy
The witch is inside of me
The boys in the washery
The memory

We kill the lights
And put on a show
It's all a lie
But you'd never know
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all

And after midnight
We're all the same
No gusher(?) to bring us fame
Nobody to take the blame
We're falling apart

Every story's a waiting game
A flower for every name
Their colors are filling you
With falling rain

We kill the lights
And put on a show
It's all a lie
But you'd never know
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all

Now you know it's so much better to pretend
There's something waiting for you here
Every letter that you wrote
Has found its way to me my dear
You can make believe that what you say
Is what I want to hear

I'll keep dancing through this beautiful,
delusional career.
Faking every tear
Looking like a comprimise suicide
Keeping all my dreams alive

Oh, I heard this song on the radio today and knew it was the Killers as soon as Brandon started singing. I'm in love with it!

A lot of it seems to have to do with Cannibalism.

The Killers – Midnight Show Lyrics 19 years ago
This song is a murder that had something to do with water but wasn't a drowning.

I think it was a guy who'd heard his girlfriend was cheating on him. He took her out and they were just mucking around ("Drive faster boy" could've been her encouraging him to pass the speed limit and just having fun). He's had so many people trying to help him cope because he's getting all worked up after hearing she cheated and, I don't know, might be all depressed or unhinged or something.

I always thought it was 'Fix these things I've heard' so:

"Make it go away without a word
But promise me you'll stay
Fix these things I've heard"

Is him wanting her to fix it by denying it, confirming it that it was just a rumour. But he must've thought she really was a 'Guilty Girl' because he killed her.

I think he killed her by driving the car off a cliff and into the ocean while he jumped out.

"I took my baby's breath beneath the chandelier of stars and atmosphere
And watched her disappear
Into the midnight show"

It was night when he killed her so he watched her go under the stars. Him watching her disappear was watching the car go out and fall into the ocean.
That's why he's always saying he's driving. At first he's drives fast because she encourages him but then he keeps driving faster to 'make it go away' by driving fast off a cliff.

Anyway, that's how I always looked at it.

Jewel – Stand Lyrics 19 years ago
I love this song, and the film clip. And Jewe's voice...she sings it so well.

I agree with nothingelsecompares on the analysis except for the first verse, where it says 'See the hero try to run'. I don't think that's about some random guy who's suppossed to be heroic, I think it means the Cop is running away after seeing the lady with a gun.

I also like how in the film clip, the cop is seeing to be chatting up some girl (possibly a hooker?) while another one goes and gives the money back.
