| Catherine Feeny – Mr. Blue Lyrics
| 1 month ago
|
|
I think a lot of people can relate to having a mr blue inside of them. Ive struggled with depression most of my life and at 28, ive had some great moments for sure, and in those times its like i just told mr blue "i have to go now please dont be angry". Its like we have built this relationship with our sadness, and thats who mr blue is to me. Could also be about a lover who struggled with depression, but to me it makes more sense shes talkong to herself. Mr blue could be a reference to ELO mr blue sky which has a very similar theme of seeing the sunshine after a period of bleakness. |

Unrequited love has been the theme of so many good songs. Mostly because i relate to them the most at this point in my life. The one who got away, met her at 23 in 2020 and I played this on guitar for her. She dumped me because I was a piece of shit March 2021. Blocked me on everything. The whole time ive been praying and trying to be a better man for me, and ultimately id love to have this amazing woman back in my life. However we reconnected back in january slowly started talking again, and shes coming to visit her mom in the Fall. Shes going to come see me too. I haven't been waiting all my life for you Emma, but the moment i get to see your precious smile, The rest of it will have been complete. I prayed for years.. He must have his kost powerful angel helping, because im able to talk to his most beautiful angel once again. |

This song means the world to me. To me it represents unrequited love. My heart yearns for this special girl, my ex, who broke up with me 4 years ago because of MY mistakes. I am a christian and honestly i pray for her almost every day still and that if it is true love we will find our way back to eachothers hearts. When I am ready and able to treat her like the queen she absolutely is. I know it sounds stupid and i should move on but 4 years later i still see her in every other woman. Ive tried dating, but its not fair to the girl because i truly cannot get over my last love. I will wait a thousand years more and i know it will be worth every single second i wait. She will come back. |

Liferollson37 Hit it the nail on the head.. Song about coming of age and realizing all your dreams were squandered day by day having our free will stripped to a certain extent by the society we live in or how we were raised and who we were raised by. Lamenting on our parents who we eventually forgot about in pursuit of our own lives. Reminiscing about childhood and how everyone is just fated to pretend .. We see it even clearer with social media everyone seems to have picture perfect lives or avatars theyre fated to pretend to live. Truly amazing song one of the best |

I LOVE this song. Great Canadian mid 2000s alt rock. I think its about touring life and how "The Reason" needs a rest because its taking its toll on him mentally and physically. He can fall asleep for days because he puts his all into touring. He drinks to numb stage fright or nervousness. Could be wrong but I think it makes sense. |

Maybe a bit of unrequited love here. He messed up and she came back to him and are getting married now to have an amazing life together. Its exactly what I dream of, i treated an ex badly but my prayers will move mountains. A seemingly impossible object being moved by the hands of God. |

Pretty self explanatory lyrics. Its sad that a lot of times its only when we lose something that means so much to us, that we recognize our foolish ways. I relate to this song immensely, my ex broke up with me 4 years ago coming this March, and its only cause of how I treated her. This song consoles me and i still believe one day she might give me another chance, after i learn and grow from my mistakes. |

She left me March 2021, ive got to get back to you, you're the best ive ever had.. I can only imagine being able to play this for her in person one day. Her scent, her walk, her face, the way she talked and how we related like ive ever related to another woman before. I love this song the melody, lyrics, the brushes and the artwork on Naturally. When i first heard it i instantly knew who it was for.. Bittersweet unrequited love. |

What a great unrequited love song. Girl broke up with the guy and he's waiting for her to call him "whenever she's ready". He thinks shes still in love with him as he is still in love with her. He wants her to treat him better and for her to listen to how he feels about everything. Check out the dinosaur jr version of this song if you like the big muff pedal. |

| A Perfect Circle – 3 Libras Lyrics

This song is an ode to satan. Title: Libra is connected to the number 6 in the zodiac. Three Libras meaning 666. Maynard talks about a wounded fallen angel (Satan after the fall and his pride was hurt) in luciferianism and satanism Satan is seen as the liberator of self from an evil God. Totally satanic undertones within this song and most of Maynard lyrics... |

I think It's written about a man on trial.
Mostly because the wording about a man in a box three inches above the floor (either the judge or witness on the stand.)
When i first heard this song in 2016 i was dealing with something legally and was preparing for trial. I was recommended this song on youtube and considering my own circumstances i found it very fitting. |

Wow guys. The great deceiver by King CRIMSON. Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
I believe it's their homage to Satan, whom they worship. |

"From an empty sea, a flash of light". Like a lighthouse, having depression while in a relationship; that person is your lighthouse when you're lost at sea. That person lets you know you're safe and that they're on your side. Lyrically, the song makes me think of Drive by The Cars, or the cover by Deftones. I absolutely love this song it makes my heart break over and over again for the same girl i cant stop thinking of... maybe one day. |

| Sam Cooke – It's All Right Lyrics

What an absolutely amazing love song. May be unrequited as per the "All my friends tell me that you found somebody new
They report to me every little thing that you do
But long as you tell me that it's all untrue
Baby, it's all right". I know i feel this to my core. I can't help but think of this quote to compliment the lyrics and music.
Someday, we’ll run into each other again, I know it. Maybe I’ll be older and smarter and just plain better. If that happens, that’s when I’ll deserve you. But now, at this moment, you can’t hook your boat to mine, because I’m liable to sink us both. |

the moon here is used as a metaphor for death itself. Whos death? Jesus'. A single day is a single life, morning; birth, daytime; midlife, night; end of life. The moon comes out as life fades away. Not so much a hidden meaning as much as a cool allusion. |

| Swans – The Other Side of the World Lyrics

To me the lyrics are about either a "the grass is always greener" lie we tell ourselves in certain situations (relationships, careers, life in general) or its about a glass half empty attitude, a better life or time that seems so far away (on the other side of the world) the music sounds really hopeful and innocent. I remember first hearing this when I was 17-19 and it described the world perfectly to me, the emotions I felt while hearing the melodies and lyrics. I was longing and still am for something that seems to be on the other side of the world. |

She was the spade he used to dig the hole he is now in. She's gone, the spades gone, so he's hit his bottom, now he can do the work to get out of that hole. To me this songs just a lament on a failed relationship that he put his everything into and tried to make work. The title of the song referring to how she let's everyone/ anyone in - shes so open that she's letting anyone who passes by in and see how the last relationship went to shit. He's not as open and his window (eyes maybe) let's people see the scars that were left by the failed relationship. I've lived these lyrics to a tee, and most of the acoustic album "songs of" speak directly to my experience as a young man searching for love that lasts but hasn't yet. |

I can deeply relate to this song. I am a Christian but have struggled with severe depression most of my life. I'm about to turn 26, and I often slip back into the sins I have slowly been pulled out of. I like the symbolism of Jesus being the radio, automobile, aeroplane, bullet and gun in our lives. Like I said I'm a Christian and I don't know if Jason pierce is or not but it definitely sounds like he struggles with God. I should have been named Israel because I definitely struggle/wrestle with God in moments of my life. Trying, but failing. But always trying. So it goes. |

Add my thoughts? Nothing can be added nor taken away, a cry to God for help, a true lament on your own failures and dreams. Don't know how many times I've lied in my bed listening to this and repeating the words "lord can you hear me when I call" with such poignant regret. The words of an addict feeling the conviction of Jesus christ and the condemnation of Satan all at once. Whoever is going through tough times you are worth it, Jesus loves you, and wants to have a relationship with you, as real as the relationship you have to your sadness. |

Longitude, and lattitude lines..only murmers collapse from the jaws, earthquakes and natural disaster.. The earth is not a machine it is a living breathing organism that is going to spew us out of its mouth we have raped and pillasged the organism long enough.
