    Default Lyrics meanings

    ITT: You post lyrics and the person underneith (after whatever) you tries to determine what they mean, kgo. (NO CHEATING AND USING SONGMEANINGS.COM)

    His father was a drinker
    And his mother cried in bed
    Folding John Wayne's t-shirts
    When the swingset hit his head
    The neighbors they adored him
    For his humor and his conversation
    Look underneath the house there
    Find the few living things, rotting fast, in their sleep
    Oh, the dead

    Twenty-seven people
    Even more, they were boys
    With their cars, summer jobs
    Oh my God

    Are you one of them?

    He dressed up like a clown for them
    With his face paint white and red
    And on his best behavior
    In a dark room on the bed
    He kissed them all
    He'd kill ten thousand people
    With a slight of his hand
    Running far, running fast to the dead
    He took off all their clothes for them
    He put a cloth on their lips
    Quiet hands, quiet kiss on the mouth

    And in my best behavior
    I am really just like him
    Look beneath the floor boards
    For the secrets I have hid
    now safe beneath their wisdom, and their feet;
    here i will teach you truly how, to sleep.

    Uh...a murderer? :O And he abuses them sexually wearing make-up (possibly dressing up as a tranny or something) before killing them and stuffing them under his front porch. He's gay, though, so all his victims are guys with summer jobs. His parents are freaks so he...well, he goes a bit insane one summer. And he's like Fred West.

    AMIRITE.

    edit: and holy smurf, you're...just like him??!?!

    Oh right. (Was I right, though?! And which Sufjan song?!)

    Come in, come in
    Come into my world I've got to show
    Show show you
    Come into my bed
    I've got to know
    Know know you

    I have dreams of orca whales and owls
    But I wake up in fear
    You will never be my
    You will never be my fool
    Will never be my fool

    Floaters in my eyes
    Wake up in an hotel room
    Cigarettes and lies
    I am a child, it's too soon

    I have dreams of orca whales and owls
    But I wake up in fear
    You will never be my
    You will never be my fool
    Will never be my fool

    A little bag of cocaine
    A little bag of cocaine
    So who's the girl wearing my dress
    I figured out her number
    Inside a paper napkin
    But I don't know her address I wade downstairs

    The porter smiles to me a smile
    I've bought
    With a couple of gold coins
    A sign that I've been caught

    I have dreams of orca whales and owls
    But I wake up in fear
    You will never be my
    You will never be my dear
    Will never be my dear, dear friend
    Dear dear friend, dear dear friend...

    A little bag of cocaine
    A little bag of cocaine
    So who's the girl wearing my dress
    I figured out her number
    Inside a paper napkin
    But I don't know her address

    Come in, come in
    Come into my world I've got to show
    Show show you
    Come into my bed
    I've got to know
    Know know you

    I have dreams of orca whales and owls
    But I wake up in fear
    You will never be my
    You will never be my dear
    Will never be my dear, dear friend
    Dear dear friend, dear dear friend...
    ALL SYSTEMS GO.

    john wayne gacy jr. (spelling)

    i have no idea, something about sleeping and dreaming and possibly not wanting to wake up, but having to and...never being someones "someone"..

    i suck at this i was hoping to avoid actually answering.

    I think it's about a girl who wants to have a partner or a lover, but her daemons keep pushing people away from her in the end.

    This chord
    This water
    This son
    This daughter
    This day
    This time
    This land
    It's all mine

    This Calling Bell
    This Forge Bell
    This Dark Bell
    This The Knife Bell
    This calling
    This burden
    This falling
    The world's turning

    This What I thought I knew
    This What I thought was true
    This I understood
    This In the deep wood
    This Ah there I stood a child so fair
    This On a certain square
    This Down the dirty stairs
    This To see the table set
    This With golden chairs
    This Ah to follow, follow, follow, follow there

    This race
    And this world
    This feeling
    And this girl
    This revolver
    This fire
    This I'll hold it up higher, higher, high
    Money, power, sex... and elephants.
    -- Capt. Simon Illyan, ImpSec
