| In This Moment – Into The Light Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
"The song is about death and as Maria adds, "Actually it is about a few deaths. A close person to us died of lung cancer, my dog died and then we got this e-mail from a woman whose son died at 15 years old". "He loved our band and was a really die hard fan." "One of his make a wish type things was to go to Ozfest and meet us." When he died, they were listening to a song I wrote for my son off the last album, he past away while listening to it". "He touched all our lives." "So it was inspired by that little boy too"." http://www.seaoftranquility.org/article.php?sid=1261 |

| He Is We – Light A Way Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I'm not trying to be one of those people who knows people in a band are Christian and then takes every song of theirs and analyzes it and says, "See?! See that line there?! That's CHRISTIAN." But. I know this song is fairly ambiguous in meaning, and the ONLY reason I tend towards it having a religious meaning is the fact that she uses "God" and I don't think she would take the Lord's name in vain in a song, which leads me to believe she's speaking to Him. But I could be wrong! | |
| Eisley – Trolley Wood Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I think the meaning of the song is fairly ambiguous, which is nice because then it can mean different things to different people. I do believe it's talking about childhood though, given the fanciful feel to it. I suppose it could be interpreted as any dream or lost place/time, but I'd say childhood is more than likely the meaning. I'm not sure how exactly, but I really think the use of "hallelujah" is significant. | |

| The song about the boy dying is called "He Said Eternity." This song is about Maria's mom dying and how she had to let go of her. | |

I didn't understand anything you said. Nothing. |

| Regina Spektor – Blue Lips Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I'm glad you left the religion into your interpretation, specifically, because people seem to want to remove it or generalize it, and it shouldn't be. | |
| Regina Spektor – Blue Lips Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I read somewhere that she said her new album had a lot of religion and God in it and that's very apparent, based on this song and "Laughing With." Both are incredible. Two of her very best. | |
| Regina Spektor – Blue Lips Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think you're very right, I couldn't have put it better myself, and now I don't have to! | |
| Regina Spektor – Laughing With Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The thing that gets me is that you hardly ever see an atheist who isn't passionate in their atheism. I would think atheists would be apathetic, I mean, they don't believe in God, other people do, that's that. But, when you hear them speak about God, they're so angry about it. I personally think they DO believe in God, but they hate Him because of something that's happened in their life, so they don't "believe" in Him anymore. | |
| Eisley – One Day I Slowly Floated Away Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think this song is being sung by someone back home whose love is at war. She's saying their being warmed by the same sun, but their both fragile, she because she misses him, he because he's at war. | |
| Damien Rice – Elephant Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This reminds me a lot of the acoustic version of "Creep" by Radiohead. Both very, very good songs. | |
| Keane – Bedshaped Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Tim Rice-Oxley said this about it: "[The song] is about feeling that you've been "left behind" by an old friend or lover, and about hoping that you'll be reunited one day so that you can live out the end of your lives together the way you started them (...) a hope that they'll eventually want to get away from the bright lights and come back home. it's a sad and angry song, but also full of hope. I think i'm right in saying that in hospital when someone is ill and has to spend a lot of time in bed they can become 'bedshaped'. It sounds a bit depressing (...)but in the context of the song I wanted to suggest old age and frailty(...)" |

| The Hush Sound – You Are My Home Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think this song is my favorite off the CD; a shame it's a bonus song, really. Greta's voice has really matured since the last album, she's come into her own. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved the last two, but you never heard such vocals as in the part "You were my love You were my love." This song is obviously about someone hurt and confused about someone leaving them, especially when it seemed like they wanted them, too: "Why do you turn away? You were the one Who asked me to stay" |

| I think la ritchie is dead on. I think the cheater has brought the mistress to the house he had with his family, to show her he really did have one/ | |
| Regina Spektor – Chemo Limo Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I think the dream, where Benjamin Franklin baby-sits her kids, is her unconscious projection of the fact that only money would keep her able to care for the kids herself. | |
| The Hush Sound – A Dark Congregation Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
The lines "gathered around the quiet earth" and "quiet sleepers inside the quiet earth" are reminiscent of the final lines of the novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë: I lingered round them, under that benign sky; watched the moths fluttering among the heath and hare-bells; listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass; and wondered how anyone could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth. The narrator of those lines is at that moment visiting the graves of two lovers. |

| Forever Thursday – how can it be Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I think this song is about self-realization. | |
| The Hush Sound – Eileen Lyrics | 17 years ago |

I believe it's about someone who's lover died, and the lover's ghost comes back and wants the narrator to go with them into the ocean (where the lover probably died), but they can't because they're still alive. How I’d love to go swim with you in death, My heavy heart won’t let me tread. So, love, I must stay on the shore. I am young, my blood warm. I can take you this far Now, my love, we must part. A very powerful song. You notice they have a lot about the sea, water, ships, lighthouses, etc. in their music. I wonder if it holds a deeper meaning to Greta (or who ever may have written the song.) |
