I've seen these threads on other internet forums and I was wondering why the hell we don't have one 
.
Basically, you can post a lyric to any song you want, and have some sort of open discussion about its meaning. These lyrics can be your own, if you do write lyrics, but they do not have to be.
So.. I guess I'll introduce the first song lyric o.o
"Dreaming Neon Black" by Nevermore
Sometimes when I'm alone I still feel you
Your breath on my neck, you're still with me
And I'm still dreaming neon black
I wait for you, to taste your unknown world
The clock spins to time that must mean nothing
Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence and fear
Sometimes I wonder where you are, can you feel my tears?
I never knew what changed you
Did they paint your dreams in pale shades?
I wait for you, you know you cannot hide
Division from within invalidates suffering
Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence
"I am a child of light living in your mind
The pain, the unknowing washes away in time
Until then will you meet me whenever I call to you?"
Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
and wash away my innocence
Meet me in the dreamtime water, drown
Shifting shaping currents flow in memory
swim through me
Meet me in the drowning pool of tears
And wash away my innocence
Meet me
My only cure won't you meet me?
In the drowning pool of fate the moon and the sun still wait
Won't you meet me?
I suffer silently for our love, the jester has lost his dove
The first time I heard this song, I thought it was a song about a man who loses his love through some outside source (as in not "breaking up", but rather dieing or being kidnapped) and he drives himself numb waiting for her return. When he doesn't except that she is long gone, he moves himself from feeling melancholy to suffering in silent, long lasting, devastation. I nearly cried when I listened to it closely for the first time. It is a very sad and very moving song. And its the lyrics that make this song so moving.
What are your thoughts? (By the way, don't feel to obligated to analyze a lyric on here, just post the lyrics to your favorite song here and give your analyzation of it
)
