| Zeal & Ardor – Clawing Out Lyrics | 3 days ago |

| David Gilmour – The Piper's Call Lyrics | 19 days ago |
| “The Piper’s Call“ is a clear reference to Pink Floyd‘s legendary debut album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, with which Syd Barrett created a monument for eternity. In this track David Gilmour warns of the spoils of fame and other confines. A piper’s call is an early expression meaning that the person who pays for someone to do something can decide how it is done. “He he who pays the piper calls the tune.” | |
| Falling In Reverse – Ronald Lyrics | 20 days ago |
| This to me is about how frontman Ronnie Radkie always feels falsely accused and torn down by society. Here he's saying everyone is blind and going to hell unless they wake up to the truth. | |
| Within Temptation – A Fool's Parade Lyrics | 21 days ago |
| Within Temptation says the song serves as an anthem against the deceptive maneuvers of Russia and offers a portrayal of the harsh reality endured by Ukraine.

| Simone Simons – Aeterna Lyrics | 21 days ago |
| Says Simone Simons of the track - Aeterna takes the point of view of a star about to go supernova to explore how everything in the universe is interconnected, like a cosmic web made from stardust. It deals our deep emotions, consciousness and other mysteries of life that science still can’t fully explain. Essentially it’s a reflection on our place in the vast universe and the connections that bind us together, as we’re all, to quote Carl Sagan, “made of starstuff." | |
| Starset – Brave New World Lyrics | 23 days ago |
| The name of the song is a reference to Aldous Huxley’s novel “Brave New World”. In the novel Huxley warns against the dangers of too much technology. He shows a world where technological advances have solved all of society's problems, but at the cost of their humanity. I think that is the inspiration here - how when it all explodes, the repercussions may be horrifying. | |
| Gaerea – Salve Lyrics | 26 days ago |
|
In GAEREA's song Salve, the lyrics depict a self-obsessed individual who is addicted to praise and fame. The first verse describes a figure who is worshiped by a sulfurous choir, yet is deceiving himself with his own praises, resulting in his suffocating isolation. The second verse describes the same figure facing his own reflection in a mirror, realizing that his self-obsessed ways have led him to lose touch with reality. The third verse paints a picture of mortals who are watching this figure suffer, hoping to see how long he can last. The lyrics highlight the themes of narcissism, isolation, and the struggle to maintain one's sanity in the face of fame and success. The figure in the song seems to be suffering from the consequences of his own self-obsession, as he realizes that his desire for fame has led him to lose touch with reality. The lyrics also suggest that the mortals who are watching him are aware of his downfall, yet are still fascinated by his suffering. |

| Sleep Theory – Gone Or Staying Lyrics | 26 days ago |
| "'Gone or Staying’ is the breaking point in a relationship that is built on emotions and broken promises. It is the struggle between wanting things to work and the need to move on,” the band explains. | |
| Gaerea – World Ablaze Lyrics | 26 days ago |
| "'World Ablaze' tells the story of a man who has lived all his life inside a cage, knowing that one day, he'd be set free to experience the world with its true colors," said Gaerea of the single. "Unfortunately, he also knows that day will be his last hours alive." | |
| Deep Purple – Portable Door Lyrics | 28 days ago |
| “Portable Door” seems to be sung from the perspective of a man who is becoming annoyed by comments being made by someone whose opinions he finds hard to digest. | |
| Black Veil Brides – Bleeders Lyrics | 29 days ago |
| The song itself is inspired by the Stephen Sondheim musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Lead Singer Andy Biersack said he was inspired by the story of Sweeney Todd via a CD copy of the Broadway cast recording of the 1979 Broadway production with Len Cariou portraying Todd & Angela Lansbury portraying his accomplice Mrs. Lovett. Biersack said his usage of darker themes and imagery in the band’s sound was first started by Sweeney Todd, and later other musicals like Phantom Of The Opera and eventually comic book characters like Batman, & bands like KISS and Misfits. Biersack said he wanted the song to not be solely about the character of Sweeney Todd, but to be “directly connected to me.” | |
| Trivium – Pull Me from the Void Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| It’s a song about pulling yourself from that dark place, rising above and destroying all in your way. Your enemies, the would-be doubters and everyone who has ever put you down. It’s a track about the struggle to seek your revenge on those who have hurt you in life. It’s a cry to those who have felt looked down upon in life, for them to realize that the harder you fight, the more you’ll achieve. | |
| Wisp – Pandora Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| To become one with someone melded, sharing wounds, bleeding with them, inseparable. | |
| Five Finger Death Punch – Question Everything Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| For me this song is from two different angles. One is a girl who loves perfection and order. She lives in the light and is almost like an angel. The second angle is the boy. He is the total opposite of the girl and yet I think that they are both infatuated with each other, despite being polar opposites. | |
| Jake Webber – Angel Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| I think this is about being infatuated with someone to the point you're convinced they're your angel of death. | |
| Silversun Pickups – We Won't Come Out Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| Frontman Brian Aubert had this to say in reference to this song; Silversun is never going to get that snarky — even on this track, it’s hopefully only going to be in these certain ways when you hear it. I think the connective tissue with this song and the rest of them is we haven’t been trying to beat people in the head like, “Hear us, or here’s our point of view, and here’s what we have to say and you must hear us.” That is not interesting to us on any level as these things mean a lot to us, but they mean different things to other people. People get the general gist of it, the little snark and the mischievous feel to it. This one feels mischievous to me. | |
| Thornhill – Viper Room Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| Viper Room discusses a one sided urge to keep pursuing an individual out of stubborn lust and fear, even when given explicit warning to move on. | |
| Pearl Jam – Wreckage Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| The songs explore themes of survival, life & the passage of time throughout cynical lyrics. | |
| Imminence – Come What May Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| I think this is about no matter the oncoming darkness, remaining hostage it, seeing no escape possible. | |
| EsOterica – Firefly Lyrics | 1 month ago |
|
In this track find we find someone who seeks courage to overcome the harshness of others and stop being on the run. They're being told by someone else, that they're infact amazing, that they are this persons light & circadian rythym and that they will be there when they need them. *Circadian rythym is the natural cycle of physical, mental, and behavior changes that the body goes through in a 24-hour cycle. The rythyms is mostly affected by light and darkness & are controlled by a small area in the middle of the brain. |

| Porcupine Tree – Rats Return Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| Frontman Steven Wilson says of this track; "The rats are politicians who express having an interest in the public but, when it comes down to it, only want to save themselves. Having lived through Brexit, Trump and Boris Johnson, it wasn't hard to get depressed about what's going on in the world." Wilson continues; "'Rats Return' is about those who claim to have the interests of the people at heart, but when it comes down to it there is only ego and self-interest. I find myself reflecting on what sort of person would actually be so driven as to want to rule over a whole nation, and aren't these people by definition the very last people that should be allowed to do so? The rats will always save themselves first." | |
| Dead by April – Break My Fall Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| This track hauntingly explores themes of heartbreak and resilience. | |
| Beyond Thy Sight – Concrete Spine Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| I think this about survival amongst the ruins - instinctually always seeking for ways to reroute to remain. | |
| Empire of the Sun – Changes Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| One half of the electronic duo Empire of the Sun 'Nick Littlemore' says Changes’ represents the shifting sands of time, empires rise and fall but the sun shall shine on. Come once more into the world we’ve created, delve deeper within and be rewarded with its ever-expanding story, each and every one is invited to explore the new era. | |
| Wheel – Porcelain Lyrics | 1 month ago |
|
Vocalist/guitarist James Lascelles commented on the track - “‘Porcelain’ ended up being about social norms and how the values of the past seem abhorrent by modern standards. In turn, our current values will likely be seen as primitive, careless or even cruel in the future. I think we would all like to imagine that if we had been born long ago, we would have the same world view that we do now but this would likely not be the case. We are all shaped by our surroundings and social conformity, probably more than we would like to admit. It was a humbling topic to dig in to and the more I thought about it, the more empathy I was able to find for our ancestors.” |
|
| Alcest – Les Jardins De Minuit Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| The lyrics describe a hidden path at the edge of silver cypresses, where the protagonist leaves behind alluring sirens and lets the stars guide him with their sad song. In the midnight gardens, time has stopped and there are non-human parts mixed within the sleeping blue water. The protagonist asks for spiritual instinct to help embrace the harsh realities of the world and the courage to fully accept both light and darkness. The trees reach towards collected moons and giants rise in the tearing wind of the night. | |
| Kings of Leon – Split Screen Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| Lyrically, "Split Screen" dives into themes of modern disconnect and the struggle to find meaning in the whirlwind of life. Phrases like "modern innovation" and "desire when needed" paint a picture of a world where technology and constant striving create a sense of isolation. The imagery is striking: "the weight of the feather," "color run from your eyes", and the haunting line "pack up your head case." The song reaches its climax with the question: "Is this a middle-of-a-life thought? A revelation on a split screen?" | |
| Pearl Jam – Running Lyrics | 1 month ago |
| Running explores the inherent tension between alienation and solidarity, frustration and optimism, reality and possibility. The lyrics have a ‘the more things change the more they stay the same’ energy (endless running, diving into bottomless depths), but while this is undoubtedly a frustrated song, it’s offset by a stubborn refusal to stop. Running is tired, but it’s not exhausted. Movement has always been one of frontman Eddie Vedder's primary metaphors for change and possibility. If we stop, nothing changes, and they win. | |
| Twenty One Pilots – Next Semester Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| This track is a restless blast of power-punk about wanting to begin again while still contending with what's in the past. | |
| Lenny Kravitz – Human Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| Lenny Kravitz said of this song in an interview; We're spiritual beings having a human existence and the journey. | |
| The Ghost Inside – Split Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| The band explains, “ “Split” is about the times your world is falling apart and you get trapped in your own head with an imagination making you question reality, sending you spinning towards your breaking point.” | |
| Jake Webber & Johnnie Guilbert – Ecstasy Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| I think this is about comparing love to a drug, you need it to save you, it's an obsession. | |
| Avatar – On The Other Side Of Tonight Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| I think this is someone who lives in a fantasy realm who's called out, exposed and told of the consequences they are gonna face. | |
| Marko Heitala – Left On Mars Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| Marko describes the track as a love song to his wife Camila. | |
| Avatar – Make It Rain Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| I think this is about desperately trying to connect with someone, to get a message through to them & finding that communication is next to impossible. | |
| Vended – The Far Side Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| I think this is about feeling skeptical about who you can trust as far as your real friends go. I also think it speaks to a general sense of doom that maybe the path you're on isn't authentic. | |
| Wheel – Empire Lyrics | 2 months ago |
| Vocalist & guitarist James Lascelles comments of the track: "It is about media empires and the effect they have on wider society – all of us are influenced to some degree, even if we would rather not admit it. Issues that require nuance are presented as binaries and opposing views are made into caricatures – a target for us to rage at that far too often, doesn’t even exist. This is not a new phenomenon by any means but it is one that seems to have been catalysed by the modern landscape of media, the internet and populist politics. As you might be able to tell from the mood of the song, this pisses me off immensely and it was cathartic to vent about it.” | |
| Fleshgod Apocalypse – Pendulum Lyrics | 2 months ago |
|
Directly inspired by frontman Francesco Paoli’s tragic mountain climbing accent in August of 2021; Pendulum is Fleshgod Apocalypses first song release since the year in question. Francesco had this to say about the track: “This is the first song we release since my dance' with death, back in August 2021. It’s obvious that such a life changing event would have affected our music. It took a toll on me, physically and mentally, and sharing my experience is also part of my healing process. Pendulum is just the opening chapter of a bigger story, which is yet to be told..” |
