This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Well I know you don't know the reason
And it's cold, a sign of the season
'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten
And we'll grow, 'til we hit the ceiling, yeah
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
Well it's gone and it's not returning
And your clothes and pictures are burning
'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten
And we'll grow, til we hit the ceiling, yeah
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine anyone else
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
And it's cold, a sign of the season
'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten
And we'll grow, 'til we hit the ceiling, yeah
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
Well it's gone and it's not returning
And your clothes and pictures are burning
'Cause you're old, and battered and beaten
And we'll grow, til we hit the ceiling, yeah
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else
I'm off for the weekend
I couldn't imagine why you would save yourself
Well I'll be better, get away
Send a letter, bombs away
You're covered in my skin
I couldn't imagine anyone else

I couldn't imagine anyone else
You're covered in my skin

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
By far one of my favourite songs off Saturate, I see this song as describing a long-running relationship that's gone cold and is ending, and the singer not wanting it to end, but also knowing that it has to end. This is my interpretation of the whole song (of course, many other interpretations are possible)
(Official lyrics from hollywoodrecords.go.com/breakingbenjamin/) WELL I KNOW YOU DON'T KNOW THE REASON AND IT'S COLD A SIGN OF THE SEASON
YOU'RE COVERED IN MY SKIN I COULDN'T IMAGINE ANYONE ELSE
WELL IT'S GONE AND IT'S NOT RETURNING
I think you have the best description of the song..... and yeah I pretty much agree with what you say about it.
i don't know this bad well, but i think that alot of their songs have to deal with sex and young lust. i think by being covered in someone's skin is to be laying naked on top or beside them. i think the singer is kind of touch up on a relationship that sort went up and down but the defining characteristic is that he doesn't want to find anyone else and despite whatever causes him to burn her cloaths and picture, he still wants the comfort and solice of the sexual intamacies of a certin woman in his life.
I agree with osubuckeye, but I think that it's not that the woman is older, it's that she's getting old to him. 'and it's cold, a sign of the season' perhaps means their relationship is getting cold, but they stay together for some reason. I agree with osubuckeye about them wanting to end it but can't.
okay...this is one of my favorite songs from my favorite band. and this is my interpretation...
so someone is in some sort of relationship with someone else and it's been going on for a long time. both people in this relationship want it to end, but they can never end it, but they really want to, but they just can't, and the feelings keep coming in waves...the lines "Well I know you don't know the reason, And it's cold, a sign of the season" and "Well it's gone and it's not returning, And your clothes and pictures are burning" show how they really don't have anything left for each other, but when he says "I couldn't imagine anyone else," it's like they don't want anyone but each other. Hence, they're stuck not wanting to be together and not being able to be apart.
but that's only what i took from it, agree or disagree as you wish :)
this has to be one of breaking benjamin's songs its so good. not completely sure what its about though
its just one of those songs with little meanings but good sound, its got a meaning deep down i bet but its 1 of those 1's u really gutta put ur mind 2
yeah, it is one of those songds that doesn't have much meaning, but I love it.
This song is amazing, Id heard of BB before this song but I heard this on the radio and I was hooked instantly. I mean, the guitar in this song is amazing!
This is one of my all-time favorite Breaking Benjamin songs. It kicks major ass! I can't believe more people do not know about how talented these four guys are!
It's about a long distance/relationship with an older woman that really is devoid of any meaning.
The guy doesnt understand why the girl keeps coming back for more, and he doesnt really understand why he keeps coming back to her. The whole, "We know we better.... get away. Send a letter.... bombs away."
It's like they both know doing it is stupid, but they keep doing it anyways. They both want to end it but they cant.
If you've ever been in one of these kind of relationships you'll undrstand, otherwise it probably makes no sense.
