    You fucking morons, not all of you, but there are quite a few here. By saying you're glad that those people died on 9/11 you're worse than Bush, who is a prick who cares more about money and revenge than the welfare of his nation or anyone else. By saying what Str1ngcheese did about Maggotface, you simply prove you're as bad as he/she is. Idiots. You're a stupid, fucked up individual if you kill, send others to kill, wish people to be dead, pollute and destroy, or if you come out with such dumb, ignorant comments as the ones that have been made here. I hope you feel very fucking ashamed, I almost wish you die or get raped or whatever, but y'know, I'm no asshole. The song? It doesn't sound amazing, but at least it has meaning, a good, genuine, heartfelt one that comes from love and craing instead of the pointless hate that so many idiots feel. Sometimes silence is better than whatever crap you end up hearing or reading...

    "Let's give a minute of silence to blinded patriotic people who support a government which brings disasters on itself." Blame it on Bush.

    WOW! SilentAenima is a fucking asshole. George Bush is one of the greatest presidents we have ever had. He has had to clean up all of Bill Clinton's shit. George Bush has done nothing wrong, if it wasn't for him we would be in some deep shit.

Trouble Breathing
Alkaline Trio
While the obvious connections with suicide or alcoholism could be drawn easily, more subtly this song could be about someone who views the world through a negative lens constantly and how as much as the writer tries to show the beauty in the world, this person refuses to see it. It's one or another between the rope and the bottle. There is no good option for this person. They can't see it. Skiba sings it in a kind of exasperated way like He's tired of hearing this negative view constantly and just allowing that person to continue feeling the way they feel knowing he can't do anything about it. You can hear it when he says maybe you're a vampire.

Of Mice & Men
This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

Alma Matters
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support. "Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
