The Weeknd – Starboy Lyrics 9 years ago
I think he is talking to his ex, someone who broke his heart. Did him wrong when he was just a regular struggling artist. Then he made himself a promise to succeed, so he goes back to her to show her that he is now rich and famous and she is nothing. He can make her year's salary in a week and he dates women who are more beautiful than her. They may be coke-heads but he loves them anyway. Its like a Great Gatsby, but in this one he doesn't want the girl, he just wants to shame her in his own twisted way.

Hozier – Work Song Lyrics 9 years ago
He is talking about his favorite bottle. His "baby" is alcohol. He is an alcoholic. His escape. It doesn't ask him anything, just helps him forget his sins. He keeps talking about kissing, no holding or hugging, but kissing. He is always drinking, even at work, his excuse is that it cools him off;
"Boys workin' on empty / Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?"
So full of love he can barely eat (He cant eat because of his alcoholism)
He is so addicted that he believes that even in death, underground, he'd wake and crawl to her (alcohol).

Hozier – From Eden Lyrics 9 years ago
@[ermoran:17507] Maybe he is lying to her. He is the snake in the Garden of Eden. He lies to get his way.

"Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago / Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword"

He lies in that he was cheated because "Chivalry" is some kind of conduct for Knights towards women. If he says "Chivalry FELL on its sword" he says this in past tense which means he was the one doing the cheating.

Maybe the woman is also a cheater. Maybe she is familiar in that way. Maybe they both snakes.

Sia – Chandelier Lyrics 11 years ago
Why is she swinging from the chandelier? Is she some kind of rich girl? Maybe she finds it hard to fit in, that she abuses substance to ease her nerves arround so much class. She says

"Sun is up, I'm a mess
Gotta get out now, gotta run from this
Here comes the shame, here comes the shame"

She has to run away because she fears the humiliation she feared in the first place. In her normal world, I think she wouldn't be humiliated. I think she'd wake her buddies up to get some more alcohol.

This to me is a song about a party girl who went to a party that was not for her. She has a drinking problem, yes and she knows that.

We are turned to certain behaviour because we think its some sort of escape. In her case she thought she was escaping humiliating herself at some fancy party, so she turned to alcohol.

fun. – We Are Young Lyrics 13 years ago
He's apologising to his old girl. He wants her back at a party. He wants her to trust her so he tells her to drink as she wants because he is here for her. But he goes back to his old ways when his friends come back. Maybe he found another person he wants to take home, someone better looking because he is shallow (Note:"My seats been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar")

Gotye – Somebody That I Used To Know Lyrics 13 years ago
He is an artist. Had a relationship as complex as his art. His art (music) used to be inspired by this girl. Now she is gone and he remains with the art i.e he's still making good music. Its a spiteful song but inspiring to most of us creatives. I make my analysis after watching the video. Correct me if im wrong.

Coldplay – Us Against the World Lyrics 14 years ago
It could be that he killed someone in a car accident when he was drunk
He got drunk cause he was hurt by a woman
He is dead and thinks he is in heaven
But instead he is in hell

or

He killed himself cause he was hurt by a woman he was in love with who slept with a friend who he killed and hung himself...

Lana Del Rey – Video Games Lyrics 14 years ago
Its about a person who is stuck in a situation she or he cant stand but cant get out of cause it will disappoint someone else. She cant tell the boyfriend that they have to change and the way they live is embarrassing because she feels it will hurt him. Its an issue of selflessness. You when you tell yourself that "tomorrow i'm going to do this and you cant because you are afraid". When someone is playing video games they can get addicted and become stuck in one place. She is sick of being content, she just wishes there would be a little bit of growth or change.

Frank Ocean – Swim Good Lyrics 14 years ago
But why is there so much drama in the way he expresses going to the ocean Rio03. I think he knows he cant change his ways, so the only way to heal is if he is dead. Watching the video he ends up at a cliff and below there is so much rock. "THERE IS NO CLEANSING THERE! JUST DEATH".

Frank Ocean – Swim Good Lyrics 14 years ago
This song is about self pity and suicide. You have this guy who is used to breaking girls hearts and getting away with it. Now he's met a cold-hearted girl who he happens to have fallen in love with. He's goin to commit suicide coz he's heart broken. He wants the girl to feel something but she doesn't, and this is wht pisses him off.
