Is this what you wanted?
With you match to catch and burn me down
(with your type of answers)?
It's just how you say it
Half drunk
Well is it time
He'll watch from the window
Is this what you wanted?

It started off like this.
(I know you know)
Will you go when its time?
I know you can light the match
(I know you know)
To burn me down

I know you know what.
I'll fold, I'll forget.
Will you?

Is this what you wanted
Now and again through your ears I'm listening.
It's just impossible to get your attention.
And it always comes down to just how you say it.
Come home.
When I promise
Let down
But would you let me go if the time was right

We will leave this option for you to decide.
It started off like this
Will you go when its time?
(I know you know)
I know you can light the match
(I know you know)
Will you go when its time
To burn me down

I know you know what.
I'll fold, I'll forget.
Will you?
(to burn me down)
I won't come home but
I know you know what
I'll fold, I'll forget
Will you?

Would you go if the time was right
(burn me down don't forget to)
Would you go just say you would want to take me.
Take me, please take me, please take me
(This fire is almost out)
Would you go if the time was right
(this time we fall)
Would you go
Just say you want to take me.
Take me, please take me.
And burn me down

I know you know what.
I'll fold, I'll forget.
Will you?
I won't come home but
I know you know what.
I'll fold, I'll forget.
Will you?

    It makes me laugh 'cause I always think of Patrick Stump! June is another good example of a Chicago band.

    okay these lyrics are a bit off... first of all it's "with your match to catch AND burn me down with your type of answers IT'S JUST HOW YOU SAY IT" "Well don't don't, well is it time" should be "HALF DRUNK, well is it time?" "we'll let you go" should be "will you go" "I wont, I don't forget you" should be "I'll FOLD, I'll for get, WILL YOU?" "Now and again through your ears I miss your head" should be "now and again through your ears I'm LISTENING" "We'll leave the side door open" should be "we'll leave this option for you" "Where you go when the time was right. We go to say you but you" should be "WOULD you go if the time was right? Would you go? just say you'd want to take me" and "(You died before)" should be "(this time we fall)"

    sorry to be picky but this is what the lyrics in the cd say good song tho...

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Album art
Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Album art
Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
