Jaleh999 · 08-07-2004, 01:36 AM

So I`m having trouble understanding some of the meanings of Some of the taking back sunday lyrics such as :

Ghost man on third
Decade under the influence
This photograph is proof
Theres no i in team
Timberwolves at n.j.

& I don`t understand almost ANY from the New Album.. If anyone knows any sights where I could find the reasons.. or if anyone knows the meanings of the songs.. Please reply..

on the left side of this site under affiliates, there's a link to a great site where people have submitted interpretations of songs, click on lyrical interpretations, hopefully that'll help you out.

im not sure about most of those, and i also dont have the lyrics in front of me to make references, but im pretty sure a decade under the influence and this photograph is proof are about their resent for the fashion in which nolan left the band and starting fresh. off the top of my head some lyrics that i could use as an example is "to hell with you and all your friends" and "drop everything start it all over remember more than youd like to forget"

Sometimes lyrics mean nothing and are just random words strung together that sound cool. Maybe just maybe that could be it. Not everything has a super deep meaning

^i'm not too sure about that. lyrics always have some sort of meaning, it doesn't have to be super deep, but it does have to have some reason behind why those certain words were chosen.
