I think this song is about his partner who is with him and says she loves him (This is the 'talk is cheap... give my a word you can keep), but she wont really completely commit.
She's always wondering if there is something out there that's better and she's trying to decide if she wants to stay with him. He's telling her not to take too long figuring it out, because even though he loves her he's ready to leave her if she doesn't really want him enough. He's getting tired of it and even though he hasn't left her yet, he's already mentally and emotionally preparing himself for this eventuality. Thus, he is already halfway gone.
I think this song is about a guy who is in love with a girl who is maybe a little out of his league, but he's still in love with her. He's also a little afraid to tell her. Anyway, this is an amazing song.
"Everything she does is beautiful, Everything she does is right"
This lyrics just blow me away. It's probably because I feel they show someone that is deeply in love because if you love someone deeply, you don't want to or can't see wrong in them.
I think the song is about people talking behind your back, and you know it. The Bride Maid is suppose to be the Bride's friend, usually a close friend but here she is saying she's a whore and tell that to a random waiter. I really don't think it has anything to do with marriage really, that could be a metaphor -I think it's about people you thought you could trust lie and talk behind your back and you just have to deal with it, drink it down ["pour the champagne"] and just get over it. It's about how he reacts which is telling them "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?" while he knows you should act like you never heard it, react with a mature look on the situation.
I think it is about how Spencer was bottling up everything about his addiction, to the point where he was falling apart. However the reason he was bottling it up was also, ultimately, so he wouldn't look as though he had fallen apart in front of the people he loves and who cares about him.
The scene with the doctors links with the whole part of prescription drugs and what he was taking. Almost as if the Doctors were holding him back from getting the drugs, but in the end, they gave up and prescribed them (when Brendon was sedated).
The scene with the coffin could also be to suggest he knew his fate if he continued, but also that because of him bottling his emotions and secrets up, he was drowning. And the fact that Brendon was still wearing his converse highlights that he was comfortable in that outfit; they are casual. Demonstrating that Spencer felt comfortable knowing nobody knew about his secret even if it was tearing him apart from the inside out.
Then the scene with the splashing water and ropes can demonstrate his 'coming to terms' with his problems and trying to break free. The ropes could be a personification of himself trying to hold him back; to get back to the comfort of the secret and the drugs locked away inside of him 'till death do us part' (the coffin). However he managed to break free, therefore portraying his decision to receive help and announce it to fans.
This song helped me when i was going through shit at school and home. i myself, kinda picture god singing this song. haha ya my god is a dude in skinny jeans and shaggy brown hair. but anyway, i prayed to god to help me and i was feeling really down and when i heard this song, idk my spirits were lifted and i didnt feel so alone any more. that part where he says SPEAK TO ME it feels like gods saying you can talk to me. i know this song is a suicide prevention song but thats just the way i feel about it
I think this song is about life not a relationship, or a relationship with life if u will. The subtleites of life strangle you but you can't really explain how. Constantly being made to worry about your needs "all i don't want to need at all". The walls are breathing your foundations are being shaken your mind is unweaving. Maybe you need to be alone to figure this out. Then you start to see it and the weight is lifted in this moment you give the final blow. You have to stand up and say it. When the darkness of control and manipulation turn to the light of self-awarness it ends tonight. But will a little insight make this right or is it too late to fight?
I guess this song could be perceived in different ways, because when I heard the song by itself, I thought I knew what it meant. But when I watched the video (with all the people holding up cards with their "secrets"), I realized it was more literal than it was figurative, if that was the way writers Tyson and Nick wanted the song to be interpreted.
In general, this song is all about the title: his dirty little secret. Which is, if you look at the lyrics, his not really liking his girlfriend at all, but he's probably too afraid/lazy to tell her.
The first single from The All-American Rejects third album, frontman Tyson Ritter said in a track-by-track interview before the album was released that the song was about a single person, but he later explained to MTV News: "It's kind of this tongue-in-cheek way of looking at someone you hate, whether it's your mom, for some reason, or it's your teacher at school, or it's your boss at work. It's just someone who makes you struggle, and it's giving them the finger."
Ritter and Rejects guitarist Nick Wheeler write all of their songs, and when they wrote this one, they each had a steady girlfriend, so the lyrics were not personal. The song became a huge hit, but Tyson went into a downward spiral - both he and Nick lost their girlfriends and it was a while before they were productive again. Talking about getting it together to write for their next album, Kids In The Street,Wheeler told us: "Ty was still coming down off the whole 'Gives You Hell' ride, and we both moved to Los Angeles. He got mixed in with the bad crowd and kind of thought he was on top of the world - thought he was bulletproof and all that." Their song "Beekeeper's Daughter" finds Ritter reflecting on this time when he was a jackass but didn't care.
Vic Fuentes has described "Million Dollar Houses (The Painter)" as one of the most personal songs he's ever written with the band. This is notable since the singer has described his songwriting as almost always a very personal process. "I think as long as you take risks and do everything with soul, you are going to get results that nobody else in the world can recreate," he explained to Kill Your Scene.
The song revolves around the singer's parents and how they lost their house; Fuentes has said the song was written as a gift to them. "It describes how they never let money tear them apart over the years even though they struggled to support us," he told LittleRockerMedia. The song, like much of Fuentes work, shifts between poetic imagery and stark declarations.
This is a track from Daughtry's fourth album, which has a poppier sound than previous releases. Chris Daughtry told Rolling Stone that he sees it as more of a natural progression. "I love the stuff that's out on the radio. I've always been a sucker for pop melodies," he insisted. "I love the Katy Perry stuff, Pink, Imagine Dragons, even Mumford & Sons and the Lumineers, so [my album has] all these aspects of everything I love that's out there. I wanted to experiment a little bit with those kind of sounds and incorporate it in what we do."
Fall Out Boy is an American rock band formed in Wilmette, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, in 2001. The band consists of vocalist and guitarist Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz, guitarist Joe Trohman, and drummer Andy Hurley.
The song is written from the perspective of a nameless narrator and describes her efforts to find love and beauty in a world that seems intent on denying her both. The song's imagery grows steadily grim and more depressing, finally culminating in a tragic conclusion. Vic keeps the lyrics imprecise and universal, so that this could be any sad and lost person, not necessarily the girl who inspired it.
The song sounds like it's all an illusion with the instrumental part and how the guy just sings where it's like your in an empty room listening to it, making the music echo into your ears, it's like it's the only thing on in the room, and having the music just blare into your ears makes it even better...
This song finds Of Mice & Men frontman Austin Carlile furiously calling out keyboard warriors who attack him on the Internet. "None of us are perfect; so how can anyone judge anyone else? Those people who pull on their computers and talk crap about other people: what did you do today? What did you do to make your life memorable? What did you do to help? What gives you the right to say something about me?"
It's not the song that 'saves' the person's life. It's the people behind the music that inspire us to keep trying because a lot of them went through things that their fans are going through. If anything the music is a way to help the younger generation such as myself express how we feel and let our emotions out. Yes, actual clinical depression and the like such as bipolar disorder does need things like therapy and in many cases medication to treat, but the music is kind of like a bandage or a vent. It's something to help during the present situation. I can't say much because I'm on my little sister's account at the moment, but there are songs I have listened to when I felt like relapsing, and thinking about the lyrics calmed me down. Another would be when I struggled with severe depression and was too scared to talk to anyone about it, I would listen to songs like Saviour by Black Veil Brides and The World is Ugly by My Chemical Romance, and yes they made me cry, but I would cry because they helped me remember that I'm not by myself and if I just reach out I could get help. (Which, in fact, I did, and now I have a number of people who have been helping me, and I've made a great improvement on my happiness.)
The lyric, "I'll raise you like a phoenix," is a reference to the mythical bird of ancient times that burned itself to death on a pyre every 500 years and rose rejuvenated from the ashes. The phoenix was subsequently adopted as a symbol of resurrection in early Christianity
