Eels – Trouble With Dreams Lyrics 14 years ago
The glockenspiel is a vastly underused instrument these days.

I see it a little differently. I see it as a reminder the things we perceive (pretend) as being perfect that really aren't. Disillusionment.

Being in a relationship that you feel/believe/act as if it is everything you want and need, but acknowledging nothing is really perfect.

It's not so much, IMO, about want something you dream about but can't have- rather getting what you dreamed of and realising it isn't what you expected.

The XX – Stars Lyrics 15 years ago
It isn't just about being able to WAIT because something feels right- but being willing to do things differently because it feels right. He is willing to wait, she is willing to give in. They both recognize that there is something different between them and want to do whatever it takes to keep it, explore it.

Shinedown – Cry For Help Lyrics 17 years ago
I am with cochise215 on this one... it isn't so much a boy who cried wolf kind of thing, but someone who keeps getting himself in trouble, but wants other people tp bail him out.

Anyhow... I love the song- the whole album, actually!
Just wanted to add two other references to the list:

Paying off the monkeys=Wizard of Oz
Rabbit Hole=Alice in Wonderland
