the lyrics are:
And as the windshield melts
The my tears evaporate
Where the hell did martinis come from? It's not even hard to hear. He says "my tears" clear as day. |

I think it's mainly about nothing being absolutely original. We're all exposed to music and literature and films and culture, so we can't ever create something truly original. The world fills our heads, and we can't help but be influenced by it. And it's OK! |

| Cheap Trick – Auf Wiedersehen Lyrics
| 2 years ago

This song is definitely ridiculing suicide. Criticizing people who give up. Many times when I was hopeless and wished I didn't exist, I would play this song loud and just jump around and release all the anger and frustration. This whole album was instrumental in keeping me away from suicide when I was a teen. Rock propped me up and gave me strength when I was a weird kid who didn't fit in. I'm so lucky that my parents accepted that. My Dad was a rocker, anyway. We'd listen to The Stones and Vanilla Fudge and Creedence. |

She's not dead. She's been turned into the big black dog they'd like to make it with. He leads her around on a leash, like she did to him. It's pretty clear to me. |

| The Tragically Hip – Tiger The Lion Lyrics

We humans demand structure and control, and try to force everything into some systematic hierarchy so we can "understand" it. Gord is saying that, for the most part, we can't change and live in the moment and sit for 4 minutes and listen to the ambient noises and be happy with that. We are almost incapable of letting anything, a song in this case, simply be what it is without trying to force our will on it in some way. This entire website exists solely for people to paste their experiences and meanings on pieces of art, to make it their own in some way. The opposite of simply waking to your life. |

| The Tragically Hip – Scared Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
Scary tales told around the fire vs. what is truly scary. The overt scare of blood and guts vs. the covert terror of humans and what they are capable of.
This song sends chills down my spine every time I hear it, especially:
Down at the beach
it's attracting quite a crowd
As kids wade through blood
out to it to play
Fear is conquered by the children. |
