The Avett Brothers – February Seven Lyrics 11 years ago
In a YouTube video, Scott Avett said this song is about a lesson he learned on February seventh and wouldn't explain further.

With that said, I believe this song is about Scott possibly being unfaithful to his wife or at least thinking about having an affair. He has all of these thoughts and fantasies of lust but eventually, sort of, wakes up from this "dream" and realizes that exactly what he wants and needs is right in front of him (his wife).

"I'm rested and I'm ready to begin" could either be Scott telling himself or his wife (maybe she found out about his infidelity) that he's now ready to spend his life with her. He strayed off track for a little but he's back and he's "ready to begin" again.

Circa Survive – Frozen Creek Lyrics 12 years ago
In an episode of LA Ink when Anthony Green was getting a tattoo dedicated to his son, he talked about how he and his wife had trouble having kids. His wife had two (I think) miscarriages and it places a huge damper on their relationship. This song, to me, seems to be about their struggle and how he wants to work on things. He wants to take his wife somewhere and forget all about the hardships they were going through.

Of Mice & Men – Repeating Apologies Lyrics 12 years ago
I think this song is about a broken relationship but the singer isn't giving up. He is giving his all to her, which he's never done before, and he wants to make things work. Mistakes were made but he just wants to move on and be happy with her.

Of Mice & Men – My Understandings Lyrics 12 years ago
What a beautiful song!

Also, he has great faith in the relationship.

Envy on the Coast – Like I Do Lyrics 14 years ago
My thoughts on this song were actually kind of opposite of what southernpunk777 said. I think this song is about the singer having an affair with someone else who is also married. The singer wants to stay with his mistress and the mistress feels the same. They kill their respective spouses and just go back to each other and continue with their lives together. THe chorus kind of gives it away for me. The first two lines are about his wife's reaction to him cheating. The bucket of water and match metaphor meant to me that she wants to keep trying with their marriage but he keeps putting it down and is giving up.

That's my take on the song.

i read this comment and listened to the song and i'm pretty sure you're right

The Fray – Absolute Lyrics 15 years ago
i think this is about a crappy relationship. neither of them care for each other but they pretend like they're happy. they're opposites. the second verse i kind of get the feeling that the guy is in the marines. i don't know maybe I'm just making this up :)

Anberlin – Burn Out Brighter (Northern Lights) Lyrics 15 years ago
"In the past, my humanitarian efforts would rarely inspire my lyrics, but on New Surrender, it became a very prominent topic. "Burn Out Brighter (Northern Lights)" is about the regrets of a person going down in an airplane crash and wishing that he had spent more time concerning himself with the affairs of humanity as a whole as opposed to selfish green and gain."

from the February 2009 issue of AP Magazine

The Cab – Vegas Skies Lyrics 15 years ago
to me this song is about having distance as a factor in your relationship. maybe one of them is going away for a long time or they live far apart. but no matter what the distance is, they both know they were meant to be so they'll suck it up and just look forward to when things get easier

The Cab – Bounce Lyrics 15 years ago
to me I think this song is about wanting to have sex and have someone fall in love with you but not caring about having an attraction or feelings towards them back.

Whatever it's about I love when he says "Your mouth, it moves but fails to speak And when you use your lips it better be on me." the first time it's great

Story of the Year – Is this my fate? He asked them Lyrics 15 years ago
all you fuck tards who think people choose to be gay are absolutely out of your minds. the shit people put through gays is brutal so why the hell would anyone "choose" to be gay? i wouldn't wish homosexuality on my worse enemy on account of you naive idiots.
all you "god-lovers" need to start thinking for themselves and stop listening to a book

stevewode, you're the stupidest of them all. being a murderer and being gay are two completely different things. being gay is an attraction in which attractions you cannot control. murdering someone is an act in which you can control. i can choose to kill someone any time of day. i can't choose to be attracted to someone

Secondhand Serenade – End Lyrics 16 years ago
Man oh man I love the lyrics to this MIA version
It's exactly what I'm going to be feeling come September when my girlfriend goes off to college in another state. I, being only 15 , won't be able to see her often and it kills me inside.

"We'll finish our last nights in your car
Just like we always do"

that line relates to us too.
I used to sneak out a lot and we'd just sit in her car

The Receiving End Of Sirens – Smoke and Mirrors Lyrics 16 years ago
This song reminds me of the government and how they sort of "brainwash" people. Maybe not so much in America but in a lot of other countries.

For example, if any of you guys have seen the movie V For Vendetta, the Chancellor tried to convince the people that he was doing only good and that V was a bad guy. However, in reality, V was trying to tell the people that the government is all a bunch of lies.

"You may have my wool
You may have my locks
But my voice you have not"
thats saying how you can maybe take away all these things from me but you can't control me and you can't alter the way I feel

"I'm not you whore
And I won't be your Babylon"
to me, this line is saying that he won't help the government out and that he's not going to try to make other people help the government either

thats just my take on this song

Brand New – Jaws Theme Swimming Lyrics 17 years ago
I dont know if anyone noticed this but in the first verse he says "If you're leaving just let me know" and then in the second verse he says "If you're coming home just let me know"
I can completely relate to that because my sister is 19 years old and she's never home anymore so my mom always says "If you're coming home for dinner let me know" because we automaticly assume she's not going to be home.
So those two lines refer to how things change so much as you get older

Brand New – Jaws Theme Swimming Lyrics 17 years ago
someone really needs to change these lyrics.. I would but I dont know how
lyrics:

In a car outside, we stalk the idle kind
If you're leaving just let me know
Tobacco and pepermint, dusting fingerprints
A film in her eyes from the glow

Some rules are made with all intentions to break and she Defends it with a warned rationale
And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud when they
Decide to try to take on the throne for the crown

And we learn, as we age
We've learned nothing, and my body still aches.
And you take, 'cause they give
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve

When it got cold outside, smoke beneath the playground lights
If you're coming home just let me know
Sucking on your breath mint, dissected and stuck with pins
A film in her eyes from the glow

Concrete and water, she's looking for her daughter
At midnight in torrential downpour
And everything I said about how messed your head is
We're cut up and left in bits and pieces on the cutting room floor

And we learn, as we age
We've learned nothing, and my body still aches.
And you take, 'cause they give
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve

And we learn, as we age
We've learned nothing, and my body still aches.
And you take, 'cause they give
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve

Take the picture from the wall when you think that nothing matters
Take the picture from the frame and it's a long way's to the floor
Cut your finger on the edge 'cause it's sharper than they told you.
Take a leap from out the window 'cause it's way to far to go through the door

And we learn, as we age
We've learned nothing, and my body still aches.
And you take, 'cause they give
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve
----------------------------

anyways... i LOVE this song
especially the part
"Take the picture from the wall when you think that nothing matters
Take the picture from the frame and it's a long way's to the floor
Cut your finger on the edge 'cause it's sharper than they told you.
Take a leap from out the window 'cause it's way to far to go through the door"

The Receiving End Of Sirens – Stay Small Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is about being a parent (in this case a dad) and wanting the best for your kid even though thats not always what he or she gets. and how in this world bad things happen but you cant do anything about it, its just the way things work. it also talks about kind of regretting bring his son/daughter into this world when its such a sucky place to be
i have only heard a clip of this song and it played live but i love it

Pack your bags, here it comes
To come and take you away "

OneRepublic – All We Are Lyrics 17 years ago
as i continued to read the lyrics.. i noticed a lot of parts were wrong (no offense or anything)

NOTE: THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THIS SONG... THIS VERSION IS ONE I GOT FROM LIMEWIRE... DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE ON ONEREPUBLIC'S MYSPACE

the lyrics are:

I tried to paint you a picture
The colors were all wrong
Black and white didn't fit ya
And all along

You were shaded with patience
You're strokes of everything
That I need just to make it
And I believe that

Time could tear you apart
But it wont break
Everything that you are, you are

We wont say our goodbyes
You know its better that way
We wont break, we dont die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

I walked a minute in your shoes
The never would have fit
I figured there's nothing to lose
I need to get
Some perspective on these words
Before I write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground

Time could tear you apart
But it wont break
Everything that we are, we are

We won't say our goodbye's
You know it's better that way,
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need's
A lover's alibi

Every single day that I can breathe
You change my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by

So don't say your goodbye's
You know its better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change

So don't say your goobye's
You know its better that way
We wont break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

The lyrics of the version on their Myspace:

I tried to paint you a picture
The colors we're all wrong
Black and white didn't fit you
And all along

You we're shaded with patience
And strokes of everything
That I need just to make it
And I can see that

Lord knows I've failed you, time and again
But you and me are all right

We won't say our goodbye's
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
I's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

I walked a minute in your shoes
They never would have fit
I figured there's nothing to lose
I need to get
Some perspective on these words
Before I write them down
You're an island and my ship has run aground

Lord knows I'll fail you time and again
But you and me we're alright

We won't say our goodbye's
You know it's better that way,
We won't break, we won't die
I's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

Every single day that I can breathe,
You change my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by

So don't say your goodbye's
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change

So don't say your goodbye's
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
A lover's alibi

So don't say our goodbye's
you know its better...
We won't break, we won't die

This song could be about a dog or a girl or it could simply be about loving your best friend. Either way its about loving someone (either friendship wise or relationship wise) and considering them your "best friend". And in actuality does it really matter what this song is REALLY about? It means whatever you get from this song. To some it may be a friend, a girlfriend, a boyfriend, or even a dog. It's all up to your interpretation.
