Cage the Elephant – Shake Me Down Lyrics 13 years ago
I don't think it's about drug addiction. The whole bit right here:

In my life, I have seen,
People walk into the sea,
Just to find memories,
Plagued by constant misery,
Their eyes cast down,
Fixed upon the ground,
Their eyes cast down

seems to be about people filled with some kind of dissatisfaction or regret returning to something from the past (usually childhood) trying to capture a glimpse of what they have lost.

I don't know what the last scene of the video means; was the meeting all in his head, his dying thoughts? or is that the next morning after the previous night's candle lighting? I thought the former at first and almost cried; I hope it's the latter.

Local H – Hands On The Bible Lyrics 13 years ago
I think it's about a junkie tramp killing her kid.

The only out of place lyric in that context is "pretty baby / never born" as the kid WAS born, but that could just be to fit

Local H – What Would You Have Me Do? Lyrics 13 years ago
This song reminds me of the incident in PA circa '95 where that football player got beaten down on the steps of a church. It's a vague connection but it exists.
