Head on a Plate Lyrics
Seriously? No one commented on this yet? Well mark my words, it will become a well known song amongst the lot of you I'm sure.
Amazingly written, and though I just heard it for the first time, it seems like it's about popularity of songs, his in particular.
"I'm just trying to bring music back to music.."
Well done again.
Yeah I think the overall meanings is clear, I'm just purplexed by the beginning.
"The hipster empire of tomorrow Will fall to the common kids of today"
i may be off here but i think that he's trying to say that the common kids are doomed to the trends of tomorrow. that fits along with the originality is not a curse theme, its like he is saying that it's a shame what has happened to uniqueness... i dunno buts thats all i can gather.

"I find the right words to express myself Instead of fitting ‘round pegs and 'round holes"
i get the impression that this should be "fitting round pegs in round holes" because he's saying he writes what he feels, not what he feels like he should because it's what works and what people expect.
"originality's not a curse" i love this line. bayside have something unique about them, and he's saying this isn't a bad thing.
overall the meaning of this song is pretty obvious. i really like it. the new cd is a grower, but it's growing pretty fast.
This is a great song, but i have only one problem with it...the first line. "Breathe kids the mold is getting old." The fact that mold and old rhyme just bothers me for some odd reason.
I think the whole first verse is just meant to say that what's popular or cool today won't be in a few years, when "the hipster empire of tomorrow" falls to the common kids of today; or, every kid out there right now. it seems our society only pays attention to the kids that aren't common, the ones that have something that make them stand out and they flaunt it. I think they're trying to say that in a few years, every person is going to be important... After hearing this album, I can only think that they're going to be huge... even if they haven't yet, it's only a matter of time.
it simple its about the new myspace music generation and the record company bosses hwo are under pressure to persuade theese bands to sign with them
i love this new bayside. there not just writing about heartbreaks and sorrow. i love it.
i think this song is about how the bands nowadays seem to try and come up with the biggest gimick(please don't hold spelling against me) instead of making music that they are proud of and will stand the test of time, up until this cd came out i was feeling really down about the state of the "scene", i hadn't really been impressed with any albums the last couple of years and it seemed inevitable bands would start breaking up and blah blah blah, well in short i think bayside could put the rock industry on their back and carry them following this cd
this song is the reason why i've always loved bayside how they don't back down from what they stand for.
"I'm loosed lipped now shaking back and forth Problem fixed I'm pouring out my soul I find the right words to express myself Instead of fitting ‘round pegs and 'round holes
And what a lovely day for a symphony Full with honesty and integrity So take this for what's it worth Originality’s not a curse"
that part gives me chills every time i listen to it.
i'm pretty sure it's "i'm really not that conceited, I swear, I'm not" i dont think "conceded" makes much sense in that context could be wrong tho
awesome song!
