They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
She stared at my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
On the second day I brought her a flower;
She was more beautiful than any woman I've seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow,
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
On the second day he came with a single red rose
He said: "Give me your loss and your sorrow!"
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
"If I show you the roses will you follow?"
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses, and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word,
As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye, said: "All beauty must die",
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day | 0FBYAHnVYyF7w6Vm | 66405 | does anyone know why people say this song is explicit? i've seen the video clip and the lyrics and they dont appear that explicit. or am i listening to a clean version? love the song tho it sounds amazingthe-wild-rose14on April 21, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Elisa Day won't stay beautiful forever, she'll fade like the wild roses, like everything. The only way to stop her growing old is to kill her. Like the young lady in 'The Curse of Millhaven' (who was told once too often that we all gotta die) the killer has taken this too much to heart & too literally. It's actually the sort of thing a parent might say in a forlorn attempt to persuade a son to marry for qualities other than physical beauty. morbid moragon June 16, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

In fact, on Saturday night, SBS are screening a series titled 'Great Australian Albums' and they're featuring Murder Ballads. I don't even want to watch it, but I know I will. Why couldn't they choose Tender Prey or Abattoir Blues or Your Funeral, or anything but Murder Ballads? mackkaon September 10, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

It reminded me of this song in a way because he's targeting the most beautiful and innocent of victims, and preserving the very essence of them. I love the fact that they're 'wild' roses, it gives the song such a lush imagery, like the line 'bloody and wild' it sounds so lovely yet when you picture it it's actually really chilling.

Except Grenouille is ugly and his victims aren't close to being in love with him. By the way, I read that Scentless Apprentice by Nirvana is inspired by that book. I just read the lyrics and it´s pretty obvious if you read the book, and probably if you watched the movie too. Anyway, I love this song! brainisinthedirton April 15, 2009 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Well, because i think this was their most high profile album, specifically because of this song, and to a different extent, this video, the only one i ever saw get any real air time. I'm tired of this album being sidelined because of the "novelty" of it. With songs like this "Song of Joy," "Curse of Millhaven," "O'Mally's Bar," i think it's just as good as any other Bad Seeds albums, certainly better than anything that has followed the "Best Of" album. Abattoir Blues? Seriously? You wanna stack that up against this album? And what of "Henry's Dream"; a stronger album than both "Tender Prey" or "Your Funeral.." in my opinion. I love the old shit too, but as albums, i don't think they were as strong as his post rehab work. I think "Let Love In" and "The Good Son" are both stronger than anything before the rehab, on the whole, as albums. Of course, for my money, their finest album is still "Boatman's Call" and people hate that album for some good forsaken reason, so i guess my opinion goes flying out the window at that point, right? Oh yeah, love this song by the way. Uh, he kills her, she doesn't appear to realize she's dead. Yes, he's a psycho. No, i don't believe he raped her corpse (where the fuck did that come from people?) I particularly enjoy the fact that all she hears is "a muttered word" .... doesn't even hear what he says. Beautiful.

But well, I love this song very much. As everyone has said previously, it's so misleading at first; you think that it's a cliché romantic song and bang, she's dead. And their voices fit really well together. Especially the line 'all beauty must die' always starts to haunt me. I have always thought, that he says it because he is bitter and jealous for all those beautiful things in this world. He is rotten inside himself and wants to destroy all the beautiful things that remind him of his own faults. linda21on October 06, 2010 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Perhaps she doesn't realize she is dead or what has truly happened. She sings about a man (her first) and is infatuated with him. She finds comfort in his company, trusts him and follows him to a place he has described as being romantic and special. She then ends with the last moment she can recall by describing the rock in the mans hand but is too naive to realise why. Its a sad song about an innocent girl seduced by a seemly trusting and attractive man but with a dark ulterior motive. Great to see Kylie exercise her talents in the non-pop arena!

For my name was Elisa Day | 0FBYAHnVYyF7w6Vm | 66405 | Song ComparisonIt's funny I'm not big on traditionals, but for some reason I'm familiar with "Hang-ed I will be" and this is clearly a reworking of that song, or a different version of that song. The reason I mention the connection is a few people are confused about the reason behind the murder, but in that other version, the murder is even more hilariously inexplicable. It happens in the same way, though, with her head being bashed in among the wild flowers and then her body being tossed into the river. mudcat.org/…cccfffvvvon June 23, 2011 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
She stared at my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
On the second day I brought her a flower;
She was more beautiful than any woman I've seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow,
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
On the second day he came with a single red rose
He said: "Give me your loss and your sorrow!"
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
"If I show you the roses will you follow?"
They call me the Wild Rose,
But my name was Elisa Day;
Why they call me that I do not know,
For my name was Elisa Day
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses, and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word,
As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye, said: "All beauty must die",
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
They call me the Wild Rose,

Her voice was perfect for this kind of singing whereas the song isn't really Kylie's style. However, at least according to a Wikipedia quote, the song was written especially for Kylie. But I'm still not quite convinced... Anita Lane pretty much rhymes with Eliza Day. nulpukkaon October 09, 2014 Link1 Reply Log in to replyThere was an error. @nulpukkaAlso, I should add that on the video Kylie is styled to look as much like Anita as possible. |

On occasions when Kylie couldn't come, Blixa took over her part of the lyrics. Not sure if the song has been done live after Blixa's departure though. moenbaseon January 26, 2016 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

The speaker is trying to comprehend societies vices and addictions; alcohol, sex/porn, drugs, social status, wealth, cigarettes. He's getting tired of it all. He then makes a rather nice reference to space. I believe he's trying to imply that their is beauty in everything (including space, which we may see as simply cold and lonely), and we don't need all this shit around us to be happy. I think the title then, 'The Stand' is referencing taking a stand against all this excess. |
Cherry tells me some things I don't wanna know
And I can't see a light at the end for us anymore
But I can't keep crying
All of the time
No, I can't keep crying

But it's only a mask that she wears so she can pretend
And I can't keep running
All of the time
No, I can't keep running

Cherry, I hate that it's true but you make me blue
I kept waiting for you to find what I see in you
And I can't keep quiet

No, I can't keep quiet
All of the time | 0Fj6m7LC9RJPbEVA | 3530822107859445384 | I think it is about a person dealing with a breakup, realizing that the woman - in this instance titled Cherry - is not perfect. The second verse insinuates that she uses people when she needs them, but when she's done she breaks up with them (the first verse) even though the other person was waiting for her to fall in love (and maybe already was in love). |

Waiting for someone to say something that's right | 0G9J6kpz4YdaLQDt | 64380 | Both Built to Spill and early Modest Mouse were the soundtrack to the beginning of my manhood. I don't mean that in a biological sense, but more of the development of my perception of the world and where my place lies. This album, and specifically this song are so unbiased and truthful, yet realistically positive. It's not pushing any type of agenda or brandishing "opinions", but rather seems as if it is holding a mirror to the face of humanity and the sum of our choices. I am so thankful for this band. These are how I personally interpret these lyrics. Let me know if anyone feels the same way. I heard what I said to you,And it was so out of syncWith the way I wanted toMake myself out to seem. A snapshot of a particular instance that encompasses a whole lot. I know that everyone knows this feeling. It's the feeling of meeting someone new, starting a new job, or maintaining small talk, anything. You would like to make yourself seem more like the mental image of what you should be: witty, serious, jovial, or what have you. However, it is sometimes hard to come across how you would like. I believe we all do this to some degree in all walks of life. It shows the uncertainty revealed by our perceived impression on other people It's comforting to me to sympathize with Doug. I don't like this air,But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it,Who doesn't think they're at the center of the universe being it? I am very fond of the first metaphor. It kind of piggybacks off of the first line and addresses the bigger picture. If one wishes to be successful, talk to that girl, nut up and say what's on your mind, or hell, even be a part of a humanity that they don't understand. You still need to continue and not quit; like breathing. Some of my friends have just quit. This line makes me think of them. The neutrality of "air" also brings to mind the blandness of it all. "eat your oatmeal" I like the message of not giving up as well. Also, who isn't selfish at their core? Everyone is just trying to get ahead eventually, and while |

On another note, I once left class early during school and went outside and drew a dot and labeled it the "center of the universe" after this song. I drew it right on the school side walk with yellow chalk so everyone saw it. but I bet no one knew it was acctually a masterpiece song written by the indie heroes of Built to SPill. youth today is so oblivious. nonnycrieson January 05, 2005 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Waiting for someone to say something that's right | 0G9J6kpz4YdaLQDt | 64380 | The meaning is pretty straight-forward. Who doesn't think they're at the center of the universe? We are all the center of our own little worlds. We have these ideas about what we think are "right" but nothing ever quite lives up to our own expectations. On the TV, no one ever seems to be quite what you want. But even you, even yourself, you're not what you want either. The words that come out sound so out of sync, they don't make sense, you're not getting through.... You don't like the way things are but it doesn't mean you're gonna just stop. You're not gonna kill yourself, you're not gonna change it. You'll just keep going, because you're it. You're the center of your universe. narsilon September 14, 2002 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Waiting for someone to say something that's right | 0G9J6kpz4YdaLQDt | 64380 | My take on this song is pretty much what narsil said, but in a bit of a different context. It's (the songs, that is) kind of a half-apologetic attempt to explain himself and his words/actions to someone (maybe a girl, maybe a friend or family member, who knows). "I heard what I said to you / and it was so out of sync / with the way I wanted to / make myself out to seem" (and the corresponding second verse) : 'Hey, I know I said these things, and I know how it must have sounded to you, but what you got from it was not the same thing I was trying to convey to you.' Trying to express oneself, trying to relate to someone so that they really understand you and where you're coming from is the hardest thing in the world. "I don't like this air / but that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it" : Here he's drawing a very simple parallel - 'I don't like being misunderstood, I don't like how tough it is to interact with people if they don't have as much knowledge of and access to all the things I think and feel as I do. But that doesn't mean I'm going to stop living with people, it doesn't mean I'm going to become a hermit and avoid social contact.' "Who doesn't think they're at / the center of the universe and being it?" : We all experience life/the universe/everything only through ourselves. There's no way around this fact - I see with my own eyes, hear with my own ears, speak with my own mouth, and think with my own mind. In this sense, we are, by nature, alone. "Don't look now / just keep watching your t.v. / hating what's to see (what you see?) / waiting for someone / to say something that's right" : Again, don't give up. Keep struggling along, because even though the majority of your experiences with people may not be positive or you may not be truly understood by (or truly understand) everyone you meet, there's always that chance that you'll find someone who says something that you would say, someone who thinks like you do, a kindred spirit. And maybe they won't agree with you on everything, but to connect with someone |

Don't look now
Just keep
Watching your TV, hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right
I heard what I said to you
Thought it was all understood
But I wasn't getting through
I'd go on if I could
I don't like this air
But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it
Who doesn't think they're at
The center of the universe, being it?
Don't look now
Just keep
Watching your TV, hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right | 0G9J6kpz4YdaLQDt | 64380 | This songs sound supplants itself in your mind and the world it creates is a hard one to leave. The musicality to it is infectious and the lyrics simple, direct yet truthful. A great song buy a great band. A_Raging_Bullon September 17, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
Picked a girl up at the trainstop where I live
Took a drive along the beach by the ocean
Talk about the dreams we had while we were growing old
Wrote a poem on the back of your shoulder
Tell me your name, tell me your story
Cause I'm into it, runnin' through life like a misfit
Tell me your name, tell me your story
Cause I'm into it, runnin' through life like a misfit
I will start again

Give the dog a bone to chew as I drive around

I think its about meeting up with some random girl, kind of like a first date. Taking everything on face, not going into a deep relationship. Very casual chemistry- just siezing the moment and having fun. glow7218on December 18, 2004 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Lazy Lover | 0GP1dLxK8DlqoMEt | 3530822107858634466 | can anyone get an official translation of the monologue at the end of the this song? i believe the Italian version is:"Sono sempre io a prendere l'iniziativa. Ma sarà possibile che sei ancora stanco? Ma di che? Non abbiamo più fatto l'amore da almeno 2 settimane. Guarda, io m'annoio, eh?! M'annoio da morire. Le mie amiche dicono che non é normale. Forse dovremmo andare a consultare uno specialista. Anche mia madre dice che mi si vede sempre triste. E che soffro di mancanza d'affetto, dice. Non lo so. Datti da fare. E poi é da mesi che non mi hai portato al cinemaO da mangiare, o da qualche parte, o in un ristorante carino, non lo soCome fanno gli altri! Dico: i ragazzi delle mie amiche stanno sempre fuori e si divertono...Ma davvero, così non posso continuare, ma dai, fai qualcosa, veramente.

"Ma sará possibile che sei ancora stanco, ma di che?
Lazy Lover | 0GP1dLxK8DlqoMEt | 3530822107858634466 | The rough translation of that last bit is:As always, I take the invitation. But will it be possible if I am still tired? But of that? We will not be in love for at least two weeks. Watch, I bore. I bore until I die. My friends tell me this is not normal. Maybe I should have a consultation with a specialist. And then, my mother tells me she thinks I am always sad. I suffer from lack of affectionI don't know. Give it to you to do. And then, for months I won't go to the cinema. Or eat, or in a restaurant in Carino, I don't know. When we make the others, I say: The boyfriends of my friends always stay outside and are entertaining. But indeed, I cannot continue, but I am something true. But indeed, I cannot continue, but I am something true. |
When winter hush turns summer pink
in half the time it takes to blink
but it all depends on what'choo think
about the girls of summer
When all you think of all day long
is a pretty face inside a song
with a thought like that you can't go wrong
about the girls of summer
Oh yeah... (do you know... what everybody talkin' about)
Some girls are all about it
some girls they love to let it fly
some girls can't live without it
some girls are born to make you cry
Over & over again
My favorite thing that drives me wild
is when a city girl walks a country mile
for a boy she loves
god bless the child inside the girls of summer

They get'choo climbin' the walls
they get'choo caught in their spell
they get'choo speakin' in tongues
could this be heaven or hell
to fall in love twice a day
is such a sweet place to be
S'il - vous - plait
The best things about life are free
the pussywillow up your tree
to the one who climbs
they'll always be the girl... yeah

Over & over & over & over & over... | 0GSZdlfEQcmt0S8t | 121273 | But it isn't s*** pop with fake instruments and bad singers. Aerosmith is still amazing, and especially because they are not making the same type of music as they started out doing. AC/DC is releasing albums with the same sound all the time. Aerosmith is always different and I love them for that. If I could, I would kiss Steve and Joe for realeasing more and more songs.

but it all depends on what'choo think
about the girls of summer
When all you think of all day long
is a pretty face inside a song
with a thought like that you can't go wrong
about the girls of summer
Oh yeah... (do you know... what everybody talkin' about)
Some girls are all about it
some girls they love to let it fly
some girls can't live without it
some girls are born to make you cry
Over & over again
My favorite thing that drives me wild
is when a city girl walks a country mile
for a boy she loves
god bless the child inside the girls of summer
Oh yeah... (do you know... what everybody talkin' about)
Some girls are all about it
some girls they love to let it fly
some girls can't live without it
some girls are born to make you cry
Yeah... over & over again
yeah... yeah... yeah... yeah... yeah
They get'choo climbin' the walls
they get'choo caught in their spell
they get'choo speakin' in tongues
could this be heaven or hell
to fall in love twice a day
is such a sweet place to be
S'il - vous - plait
The best things about life are free
the pussywillow up your tree
to the one who climbs
they'll always be the girl... yeah
Some girls are all about it
some girls they love to let it fly
some girls no doubt about it
some girls are born to make you cry
Some girls can't live without it
some girls got twenty reasons why

Steven Tyler is an absolute legend and insanely cool. zacster - YOU are entitled to your opinion unlike NewFoundGetUpKid0. (he doesn't get one because he's gay). BUT Tyler is still an incredibly flamboyant old dude, and its true, he probably does get more action than you. TYLER ROCKS!!!

Skin to bone, steel to rust

Calling tears from deep inside, oh you're so exquisite
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes
Oh, if I could remain, but it's just a visit
All midnight eyes read vacancy
Twisted, twisting
To the lovely dancing lights, I begged, may I cut in?
But they never stopped playing their song
Of a joyous song they sing, I've heard whispers
On a freezing note, I resonate
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist, twisting me
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt
In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet
Praying this will never end
In the shadow of a star, in static pallor
I realized I never began
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist, twisting me
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt
All the colors upon leaving, all will turn to grey
All the colors upon leaving, all will turn to grey
All grey, all the colors
All grey, upon leaving
All grey, all will turn to grey
Twisting me
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you're so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
You land as lightly as the new snow, and melt away
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt | 0Ga9yAac74BuCT9y | 3530822107858486657 | One time when I was listening to it I thought that it could be about lusting after/sleeping with a movie star. I think celluloid is a term for film. As with all AFI songs, it's riddled with metaphors, some of which such as references to melting, "it's just a visit" and "sunk into velvet" strike me as sexual in nature. |

You're way too beautiful, girl, that's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal when you say it's over

And I never thought that we was gonna see each other (See each other)
And then I came out, mami moved me down south
Oh, I'm with my girl who I thought was my world
It came out to be that she wasn't the girl for me (Girl for me)
See, it's very defined, you're one of a kind
But you mash up my mind, you have ta get declined
Oh Lord, my baby is drivin' me crazy
You're way too beautiful, girl, that's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal when you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls, they only wanna do you dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal when they say it's over
Now, we're fussin' and now we're fightin'
Please, tell me why I'm feelin' slighted
And I don't know how to make it better (Make it better)
You're datin' other guys, you're tellin' me lies
Oh, I can't believe what I'm seein' with my eyes
I'm losin' my mind and I don't think it's clever (Think it's clever)
You're way too beautiful girl, that's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal when you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls, they only wanna do you dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal, suicidal, suicidal | 0H8rIoGIeSFQ9gyM | 3530822107858664600 | AshleyNicole, the lyrics up there sound right to me. Yours don't make sense, because the song isn't about guys doing girls wrong. It's about the girls being jerks in this one. I heard this on the radio and had to get it. It's original and has sad lyrics but an upbeat tempo that makes you want to just vibe with it. zion_roseon July 20, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Its alittle sad yes but he ignored everyone telling him it wouldnt work, and when the girl broke up with him of course he was hurt. I think the "They only wanna do your dirt" part means they only want to do you wrong... I could be wrong of course but the other interpretation seems alittle out of line with the innocent feel. Is anyone else surprised how few comments this song has? tappingmyfooton July 25, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

What a bunch of homosexuals"I am surprised by the lack of comments too, as well as how many people love this song. He's singing about killing himself because it didn't work out with a girl because she's to pretty for him and everyone around him said it wouldn't last. How is that catchy? Isn't it sad? How is that not disrespectful to the millions of people each year who have a family member or friend kill themselves because they honestly feel they have nothing to live for? I do not think this is a good song and I am shocked that MTV and radio plays it so often. livelifefreelyon August 01, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

They'll have you suicidal, suicidal, suicidal, suicidal | 0H8rIoGIeSFQ9gyM | 3530822107858664600 | Despite the sad lyrics, this song is wonderful. I love how he used the beat from Stand by Me, by Ben E. King. It makes this whole song come together. However, I hate that this is the only song by him that people listen to. I mean, have any of you listened to his other stuff? Kingston? Dry Your Tears? Drummer Boy? As much as I love this song, his others are so much better. Sean Kingston has such a wonderful voice, too. I love how he doesn't have the stereotypical rappers voice. And not all of his songs are about sex, drugs, and girls. For example, Change, Dry Your Tears, and Colors. And Da H8RRR? I usually don't feed the trolls, especially when they mean to piss people off, but I personally love that he's fat. Fuck 50 Cent, the Ying-Yang Twins, Snoop Dog, and whoever else is only famous, not because of their music, but because of their looks. Oh, and livelifefreely? Don't worry, I'm not going to bitch at you. I understand what you're saying, actually. But this song's focus isn't really the suicidal aspects; it's that beautiful girls have the potential to fuck some guys up (literally and figuratively). I mean, why are (were) songs like Candy Shop popular? It's disguising sex as candy. In other words, there are a lot of worse songs.

My probably with the song (and Candy Shop or 97% of the songs on the radio) is that they're a horrible example for people to look up to. Music videos are also one of the worst things ever because they have women where almost nothing dancing around this guy who's saying he's the best damn thing on the planet and you need to bow down to him because of it. I don't respect that this song so stupid.

I mean, it's like he's calling himself an idiot for thinking that he and this girl could stay together forever, more then he's calling himself a god. Besides that, and the 'this song is stupid' thing, I agree with you on everything else. I'm surprised parents let their kids watch music videos like that; when I was younger, my parents banned me from listening to the local 'hitlist' radio station and watching MTV. I wish I could change your opinion about this song, but I can't (and having an opinion that differs is good). Oh, and because I didn't think of it earlier, I'll say it now: I think the "You'll have me suicidal, suicidal" part is more like a figure of speech. And also, on the offical website, Sean Kingston says that he's, "singing about being in love with someone who you think is your world, but they don’t see it that way, and you have to end the relationship.” Weither that matters to anyone but me, I don't know.

They'll have you suicidal, suicidal, suicidal, suicidal | 0H8rIoGIeSFQ9gyM | 3530822107858664600 | I generally LOATHE the music on the "up-to-date" mainstream radio stations. I do, however, listen to this song. The lyrics are fairly retarded and lack any depth at all..but most lyrics on the radio are like that. It's just a simple song. I think what made me actually find it tolerable is that it brought back the 50s-esque sound and beats from the do-wop genre. I have, embarrassingly enough, been known to boogie on down to the sounds of Frankie Lymon. Only after some Refused or Deftones, of course. :)PS. I greatly appologize for using the phrase "boogie on down". I won't do it again. I promise. couitneyyon August 18, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

He has litterally ripped off other bands like Led Zeppelin. "Me Love" is a complete rip off of "D'yer Ma'ker" and "Beautiful Girls." clearly has "Stand by me" right freaking there in the background. I honestly can't believe this is what music has come to. Casey12on August 23, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Crime could mean he was failing school in a sense. Two, how do you know the song is about him. Maybe the song is about an older brother and he's singing from his perspective. 3. The song is not a 'ripoff'. It's a remake with different lyrics. Xothermicon August 29, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

I saw this guy in the mall once, people were yelling for his autograph, but I'm not sure I'd want this guy's autograph. He sucks. I lose a lot of respect for 'artists' that don't write their own songs. Shame, shame...

Literally about 1/4 to 1/3 of their songs are either covers, remakes, or steal pieces from old blues and early rock songs. They rarely credited the original artists either. Anyway, in regards to this song, has anybody heard the stupid alternative lyrics that replace "you've got me suicidal" with "you've got me in denial". This is for the stations that feel the word 'suicide' is too controversial for their listeners. Zepfreakon May 23, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

A few hundred papers
So we'll follow you up
It's not your fault
You feel okay
It's too late in the day
It's not your fault
You feel betrayed
And can't come out to play
I never listened to a word
You never said
I never listened to a word
You never said
So raise your hands up high
And let this rain pour on
So raise your hands up high
And wash us away
Like innocence and childbirth
You look just like your mother
And you look just like your father
Forgive him, our father
Your son is smiling
So lay roses around you | 0HaCOXEdLTASrU4P | 3530822107858542644 | to me the song is something about killing yourself because of bullying which is also what the video suggests, which as i have mentioned before- its makes me cry so bad!!! i feel like that atm n it gets me down a lot. dark_n_depressedon February 08, 2006 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
Just to say we're sorry
For the black eyes and bleeding lips
When it's hard to forget
How many lies we told
Or how we'd grow
Before I said goodbye
So let's scrape our knees
On the playground
It's not your fault
You feel okay
It's too late in the day
It's not your fault
You feel betrayed
And can't come now to play
I never listened to a word
You never said
I never listened to a word
You never said
Wasting the hours now
We're all suckers for tragedies
And start this over again
And you bring us to our knees
As sunrise comes
And the story will sell

Sometimes we can overlook the things that are important to us until they're taken away. Certain events in my life made me appreciate how lucky I am to be here now and doing the things I do even more. It’s a blessing to be able to feel and love so much, and I intend to make the most of my life while it's still being lived.” "Thats what Matt says so that basically says it all. Once again - great song now I shall go! loldark_n_depressedon February 11, 2006 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

So lay roses around you | 0HaCOXEdLTASrU4P | 3530822107858542644 | It's a real sad song and seems to show alot of honesty about someones thoughts of death. I like the second verse the best. "Its not your fault, you feel ok, it's too late in the day" Because theres no proper way you should feel when someone dies and many people feel guity about feeling a certain way about it when they feel they should be maybe crying and expressing things in the same way as everyone else, and they don't seem to understand it's ok to feel ok, angry or betrayed about it. "And it's hard to forgetHow many lies we toldOr how old we'd growBefore i said goodbye"It seems to me to be talking about how dieing isn't normally something you would be thinking about and so you may lie or argue with the person and you think you will know them for a long time and you can't picture or guess the age they will be when they leave you. And it seems like in the first line he is appologising for the hurt he has caused this person because he never quite got to say he was sorry for it before the person died because he wasn't expecting such a sudden end.

"you look just like your fatherforgive him our fatheryour son is smilingso lay roses around you" (the fathers grave)My father is dead and im only 17 so ive gone through what that boy could've went through. People always say i look like my dad (jus without a mustach) whenever i can i go to see him. and put flowers on his grave. maybe its just me but thats how i inturpet it.
