The 'walls' are metaphorical. They are alluding to social injustices like racism, sexism, classism, ableism (prejudice against disabled people), queerphobia, transphobia, anti-semitism, and other issues that divide humanity into groups pitted against each other. By saying 'Let's reach across that great divide' they are trying to tell us to accept each other and build strong relations with people who aren't just like us. They are teaching acceptance and togetherness. Read more →

Khalid – Coaster

Editors choice

+276

Explanation

"

As time passes, I feel so low
Searchin' for pieces, covering up the hole
I'll fight for your love, I'll fight for your soul
I'll throw all of my cares away for you
I'll be there to wait for you View more

Coaster is about a person willing to do anything for another person that they love no matter what it is or what it takes. You know you and that person weren’t meant to be and that they aren’t good for you but you love them so much that you’re willing to even hurt yourself mentally just to be with that person. You want that person to like you so badly and wish it could have turned out better, you did so much for them and felt like you were doing all of the work in the relationship/friendship. Read more →

Natalia Kills – Devils Don't Fly

Editors choice

+9

Explanation

"

You know devils don't fly
So don't expect me not to fall
Devils don't fly
But god, we almost had it all
But I got chains and you got wings
You know that life ain't fair sometimes
Devils don't fly... But I try View more

Devils don't fly! So don't expect me not to fall" I think that this part means that someone is trying to discourage another person about what they are doing, but then they respond by saying "So you shouldn't expect me not to fail"

"Devils don't fly! But God we almost had it all!"
This means that they almost did it, but then failed at the end.

"But I got chains, and you got wings"

It means that just because that other person (op for short) has something better than the person trying doesn't mean that they can't do something.

"You know that life ain't fair sometimes"

This means that not everything in the world is going to be perfect, and that, life really isn't always fair.

"Devils don't fly! But I try"

This part means that even though the mp (main person) is being discouraged by the op, they still try to achieve their goal.

Whoo! That took a while to write! Read more →

Sabrina Claudio – Truth Is

Editors choice

Meaning

To me, I interpret the lyrics as saying that she's in a place where she feels she's moved on. She feels like her old self again and it doesn't hurt much anymore. But she knows there is days she still misses him and deep down she knows she can't completely forget him or get over him and doesn't want to admit it Read more →

It’s an alcohol/drug addition. The voice is the urge to use it talking to her. Telling her it will solve all her problems. She’s knows it’s bad, but she can’t stop. In the beginning, they try to tell her to not do it, but she does, and she can’t escape. At the end, she’s screaming and begging for help, because she can’t help herself.

Crown The Empire – Millennia

Editors choice

+ 21

Meaning

This seems to me like someone trying to escape the remnants of a past broken relationship,. Who has been trying to do all he can to forget and move on, but he cannot seem to escape it. And now regrets the actions he took to even make it happen in the 1st place. He calls her shadow, cause that's all she is now, a figure in the past (behind him). She apperently was not affected by the break up of the relationship between these 2 teens. Even though he knows young love never lasts, he still holds on to the memories cause for him ti was more. In the meantime she keeps giving him signs of hope, of a maybe. He jsut wants things to go back to how they were before, as if nothing ever happened. He hasn't felt ok in a long time (been away for millennia) and he just longs for the feeling of normality, of home,. But the situation that was left behind from the break up does not let him,. And he doesn't know what else to do now and is even willing to live a lie. Read more →

MGMT – Flash Delirium

Editors choice

- 2

Meaning

I think the song lyrics are about someone going insane and not being able to think properly. The lyrics “even of this hall collapses” represents the persons mind collapsing (person going insane) and “I can stand on my pillar of hope” means that even if I’m going insane I’ll try to go on. I hope this makes sense sorry if it’s a bit unclear. Read more →

The Growlers – Decoy Face

Editors choice

+ 1

Meaning

Other than the intro sounding exactly like Nick Cave's 'Red Right Hand,' I love this song because it's so honest. It has this really grunge/vulgar sound to it, but this fits so well with what the lyrics describe. I think the general message of it is basically no one really gives a shit these days, as they're all doing their best "yes I care impressions," while their minds walk away. And in this way, we all "really are alone," surrounded by decoy faces, so put your best one on:P Read more →

Disney – Colours Of The Wind

Editors choice

Meaning

Sometimes it's not the song itself that says it in the best way, it's the music. Go outside in the woods, or by the water, or wherever is as far from mankind as you can, and listen to the music of this song, no words, it says it all. It's practically magic. Read more →

Christmas Songs – The Coventry Carol

Editors choice

+ 3

Meaning added by Rebecca Angel Maxwell

This song is referencing the time when Jesus was born, King Herod was King of Judea, where Mary and Joseph were staying the first couple years of Jesus' life in the town of Bethlehem. Unfortunately, King Herod heard the "King of the Jews" had been born, this was told to him by astrologers (the Wise Men and others) and because he was so afraid of losing his throne, he decreed that all baby boys born that year to the Jews be killed. Although Jesus escaped death by his parents taking him out of Judea (and back to Nazereth, where he would grow up), thousands of babies did not survive this mass murder. This song is a remembrence to all those children. Read more →

Alec Benjamin – The Wolf And The Sheep

Editors choice

+ 27

Meaning

This song is about a girl who wanted to life forever. She gives her "treasure" to a boy for immortality. Now she is 90 and realizes what a curse it is to look 19 when she is 90. She never fully got to live, because she had to act like a teenager forever. And because she is immortal that means she will forever look 19. Because of her choice years ago, she never will get to fully experience life, like turning 20, 30, and 40. She is finally notices what she missed. She is now just wanting to die. Shes getting tired of living, and just wishes she could die. But because of her curse she can't. This song is pretty much saying careful what you wish for. Like all of Alec's songs it has a meaning. This is why I love Alec's songs. Read more →

Set It Off – The Haunting

Editors choice

- 0

Meaning

I know that in the song that she cheated on him, is if you read the book or know of “The Scarlet Letter”, which he kept referencing in the song, is the main character Hester, she cheated on her husband with another man that lived in the same colony as her (despite her believing her husband was long dead), and as punishment for cheating and infidelity back then in the 1600s, you were to wear a red-colored or scarlet letter “A” pinned to the front of your clothing everyday for the rest of your life so people will know of the sin you committed. So it was obvious when he referenced and said: “Go on and wear that scarlet letter”, that she cheated on him and was enraged and deeply hurt, and I believe in the middle of the song, I think it kinda implies that he walked in on the them “doing it” a little before and right up to where he said “lover turned enemy”.

Gojira – Wolf Down The Earth

Editors choice

- 2

Meaning

I've taken Gojiras somewhat fiction songwriting in to mind trying to understand this song... Maybe it is something about the Anunnaki? As it's told by the ancients that The Anunnaki (Seven judges of hell, those enslaving mankind, that comes from Planet X Aka Nibiru).. Maybe something about how they are going to judge us and raise their torches to immolate the earth and enslave the living (The wolves are now your lords, Voracious flames upon the earth) as said in the lore. Combined with a reflection of what our current and past sins is and have been... Can't wrap my head around the whole "you" point of view in the lyrics tho.. (if it was "they", it would be much clearer to me haha).. If they were talking about what i've mentioned above .. God i love Gojira, so much that it can get overwhelming trying to understand the context. of their lyrics ^^ Read more →

Dr. Seuss – Welcome Christmas

Editors choice

+ 3

Meaning

This is merely an interpretation from a writer's perspective (a writer who specifically writes children's rhyme and often invents words poetically and understands using unexplained cultural lingo out of the necessity of remaining true to the settings of the otherworldly places he invents)... fahoo = the words "father" and "Who" smooshed together. Instead of saying "my dad raised me", if you were a Who you might instead (more formally) say "my fahoo raised me". fores = forest. Commonly disregarded merely as mock-latin meant to sound sing-songy (but otherwise meaningless). l, however, think of this one as how a foreign country's derivative of the French language's "la forét" (or English's "Forrest") might be re-spelled by a culture that has never heard the word used as a name before. Fahoo Fores = father of the forest. After considering how the song feels so much more like a hymn than a song, I wouldn't doubt that Fahoo Fores is, indeed, a religious moniker meant for guiltless referencing of The [mythological] Lorax (Seuss's titular tree spirit who literally introduces himself by saying that "[he] speak[s] for the trees") with the extreme reverence of not undermining his true name, "Lorax" in vain over usage (the way a song might) accidentally. Although, within a song about "Christmas" sung by Who's with plenty Who-morality, sure, but no directly equivocal "Who-Christ" of their own... my tendency is to compare Seuss's Fahoo Fores to our own universe's idea of our legend of Adam who grew up in a forest (of sorts). And yes, I do mean "The" Adam, of "The" Adam and Eve, from "The" Bible's Book of Genesis. dahoo = the words "daughter" and "Who" smooshed together. dores = gift. This one closely reminds me of the similar sounding Scottish name, Doris, meaning giving one, and Latin's near-match, Deloris, meaning sorrows. Dahoo Dores = fruit of the forest. This must be another given name of a widely known female Who among Whos (perhaps even a dahoo of The Lorax). Maybe there's a linguistic link to her specific relevance here; the materialistic imagery of Cindy Lou (the youngest dahoo of dahoos) wondering about the disappearance of her family's tree when she catches the grinch stuffing it up the chimney could be a clue. Maybe Dahoo Dores is The Whovian Eve (our bible's original sinner). She could also be either of Adam's daughters (who came after Cain and Abel; Awan or Azura). ramus = ruler. The German Raginmund that became English's Raymond is a name that means: mighty, protector and counselor. Fahoo Ramus = first mayor of Whoville. A renowned, trustworthy Who. I guess that he was the first noteworthy mayor of record-worthy Who-lore. damus = daring one. This one was tough. There's the Greek "Damaris" meaning dominant, the French "Damia" meaning untamed and the Hindi "Dakshayani" meaning competant. Dahoo Damus = the first mayor's daughter. She was most guessably a brave and noteworthy dahoo of Fahoo Ramus, memorable enough to make it into the final versions of "Welcome Christmas". Read more →
