| Interpol – A Time to Be So Small Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i thouht it was about someone getting ready to hang themselves... :/ and it was taken from the perspective of someone watching under a boat. i might be way off... but thats just what i thought.. i think it a rather sad song... when i listened to it without knowing the lyrics, it was heart wrenching. |

i think its about being in the same place for too long, growing up and dying in the same town you were born in. 1min 44 is so gorgeous! |

| The Cure – This Morning Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i think its about a relationship thats come to an end, a relationship that 2 people kinda got pushed into for some reason or another, and after all these years they realise that they dont know eachother at all. they dont love eachother anymore... i dunno.... i cant work out the 'white room' bit... |

| The Cure – Adonais Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song is definately about the romanticisim of death... the romanticisim of suicide, i think. it is so beautiful. so devine. i am so glad they made Join The Dots... these b-sides deserve the chance to shine and form tears in their listeners eyes. |

| The Cure – A Strange Day Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
i dont think its about the end of the world. i think its the end of his world. i think its his suicide played out. he cant see the beauty of the world through his own eyes... "Give me your eyes That I might see the blind man kissing my hands The sun is humming My head turns to dust" the beauty kills him, makes him sad, his mind cant process the beauty. he knows its there, but he cant see it through his foggy/depressed state. "And the sand And the sea grows I close my eyes Move slowly through drowning waves Going away on a strange day" he walks into the water, * i refer to water because it says sea and sand and waves, but really i think it can be applied to any smothering thing, life itself, too many drugs, anything that leads to the end*.hes ready to die. the sea gets higher around his body, slowly up to his neck. he keeps walking out towards the deepness, pushing through the waves. "And I laugh as I drift in the wind Blind Dancing on a beach of stone" i love this line... one of my most favourite of any song. here im not sure, maybe hes thinking back, as hes walking/swimming to his death. hes happy that hes blind to the ugliness of the world, and happy the end of his world is coming. "My head falls backs And the walls crash down And the sky And the impossible Explode Held for one moment I remember a song An impression of sound Then everything is gone Forever" here its obvious, hes under, and the end comes. one of my favourite songs. i think it can also be applied to a drug overdose too... same theory. except with another self destructive method. |

in the words of Molko..... "Brian: A disturbing track. Someone who wants to engulf another person completely in the name of love. Something I’ve been on the receiving end of and it’s scary." |

|
| The Cure – Fire in Cairo Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| i thought it was about falling in love with someone under the influence of alcohol or drugs, then once coming round ("when the heat dissappears, and the mirage fades away"), - when the come down happens, the facts are left, hes left with a girl who he thought was someone else, because he saw her differently when under the influence. | |
| Placebo – Ask For Answers Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Scandi i think youre right on everything except i always took the like "ask the sea for answers" as drowning, going to kill yourself, to end it all. remember alot of WYIN songs were written from the sense of his ex lovers... it might be about the media, i never really saw it as though, i thought i was always about a relationship, a friendship. one of the saddest songs ever i think... makes me cry whenever i hear it. one of my favs *love* |

| Placebo – Drowning By Numbers Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"Try losing, this chromosome. It's my choosing, down to the bone." he was veeery androgynous when he wrote this song... maybe it means like the XY chromosones, losing one of them, becoming female, more androgynous... how it was his choice alone... |
