Burning in the skies Burning in the skies is basically about accepting and taking responisibilty for your faults of the past. For letting go of yesterdays pain (that seems to be a pretty common theme in ATS lol) the messenger
Yeah, "pain" is LP's favorite word in their vocabulary And the messenger tells us that blind people are not very kind...and that we should follow our instincts.
When they come for me When I heard it at the Prelistening, I couldn't get it out of my head anymore. It was stuck to my mind right away and still is. Across the line
Across The Line I first heard the song in the making of minutes to midnight dvd. it's funny because mike was aksing making fun of the melody. this song actually reminds me of breaking the habit part 2 for some weird reason... Blackout.
Blackout A song about being in a bed with blood in your eye Reading My Eyes I thought that was "lies". This is one of their typical older songs "shinoda rap rap CHAZ SCREAM ABOUT LIEZZZZ shinoda back to rappin LIES LIES BLAH BLAH COOL SCREAMY BRIDGE MORE LIES YEAAAAAAAAAAAA"
Blackout ( I felt it deserved a better description) for me this song is about a someone greedy or suck on someone and at the end its about gaining what you can from the situation. Being happy that made you more who you are and moving on. Reading my eyes I'm not really sure theres a whole of meaning to this song. Just never got developed enough I guess. Maybe theres more meaning to someone else by myself
Reading My Eyes While Mikes older stuff is more about the way it sounds than the content, this one seems less like showing off and more trying to prove his worth as the rapper in a rock band. The chorus and the bridge make me think that while he has a good, strong front, that there is a lot of emotional turmoil behind the facade. By Myself For me it's about having your confidence so incredibly shaken, that you simply can't rely on yourself to do the right thing, or make the right choices, or pull through the problems you're facing. Easier to Run
Easier to Run It's about rather than facing your fears, it'd be easier to run. It's as simple as that. Robot Boy
Robot Boy Done earlier in the thread, but I'll take the opportunity. For me it's like their speaking to someone who has forced themselves to simply be emotionally disconnected from the world around them, using the excuse that it's just not worth the effort. Wth>you
Wth>You I always thought of this song as a hate/love relationship between two people. Similar to one person who believes cannot live without the other but at the same time there's emotion/physical pain between the two. No matter the pain that comes along they still want to be with each other. To me the song reminds me of "Love The Way You Lie" because the message is somewhat lyrically similar to With You. Hopefully that made sense. She Couldn't
One Step Closer SCREW YOU TOO MOM! ... In all seriousness, it's about being so incredibly close to snapping, and then doing so. In Between
In between Telling someone something that might hurt them. Telling them you lied or hid something. Getting past your pride and taking responsibility pushing me away
