Death Cab For Cutie Lyrics

    ------ About the song Amputations performed by Death Cab For Cutie

I think so many people can relate to this song. Wanting someone so much that you will saccrafice and compromise you entire being to have their love. There's something grounding about this song. It doesn't romantasize dying for love. It does the opposite by telling how you're fine the way you are and hurting yourself for love is the opposite of whag love is all about.

    ------ About the song Company Calls Epilogue performed by Death Cab For Cutie

I don't know if have to say, it's quite obvious that this song is about wedding. The guy is invited to it and all he wanted is to get drunk and not all this happen. All he wants is "to tell you're mine." He loved her so much, that he even couldn't "spit it out when the date's been set"... It's sad, and I know all this feelings quite well. 6 years have passed, but I still feel that pain. Same pain...

    ------ About the song Stable Song performed by Death Cab For Cutie

The song is obviously about a relationship where both people involved know that its over but are too afraid to admit it, and are too hung up on memories of how things used to be.

Reminds my of "Overs" by Paul Simon.

    ------ About the song Tiny Vessels performed by Death Cab For Cutie

Personally I feel this not "just" about a guy who feels sexually attracted to a girl but doesn't lover her, it goes deeper. Probably because I had the exact same situation and could really relate to the lyrics of this song at that point. To me, this is about a guy that starts a relationship with a girl. He 's not yet in love with her when they start dating but he believes he will be. He makes the mistake of saying that he loves her after a while because he doesn't want to hurt her and genuinely cares about her. Although he says he does say she doesn't mean a thing to him. Because that sentence is only true in regarding to actually loving her. Otherwise he wouldn't say he wanted to believe in all the words he was speaking. When he told her he loved her, he realized his mistake and everything after that just felt like one big lie he couldn't get out off. That's why she sees something is wrong but the lie made it so much more difficult to talk about it. In the end he realizes he has to end this because the lie is eating him alive. Therefore all he sees is dark grey clouds.

As for me, this is pretty much what happened, although the ending is completely off. When I didn't have the guts to tell her and breakup one night, I didn't see her for a week. In that week I realized that the problem was with me, not her and that she was actually perfect for me. In that week I didn't see her, everything changed and I started to actually fall in love with her. Now we are 5 years later and we are still very happy together, although I still live with the guild of the beginning of our relationship.

    ------ About the song Someday You Will Be Loved performed by Death Cab For Cutie

I listen to this song because it's beautiful. It's sad but sadness contains beauty.
I listened to this song over and over the night my auntie died. She was closer than an auntie..and cancer took her to soon. Love sadness and beauty.

    ------ About the song Tiny Vessels performed by Death Cab For Cutie

Typical teenage love, some never grow out of it, lingering on suicidal tendencies. It's a dual mind play, maybe one day they will both laugh about it if they understand their role and morph into a higher self.

    ------ About the song Someday You Will Be Loved performed by Death Cab For Cutie

Bullshit. Honestly, if you really cared about someone then you wouldn't be like "Well, someone else can have you." Just the fact that he sleeps with her and leaves the next morning shows he never had her best interest at heart. I don't know why some people take this as positive just because of the lyric "someday you will be loved". It's more sad because the girl wants to be loved by that boy, but he simply doesn't care, even in the smallest amount. Bullshit, I say, that he wants her to feel better.

    ------ About the song We Looked Like Giants performed by Death Cab For Cutie

I agree with the post on 9/10 it's clearly about forbidden love, they have to meet in the back of the car wile everyone else sleeps. Iveactually lived this last summer!! But we were good at keeping secrets. Theirs no adding into this song! Sometimes a rose is just a rose,, lovely song

    ------ About the song Your Heart Is An Empty Room performed by Death Cab For Cutie

When your heart is empty, it means you don’t have more desires, that’s why the empty room is beautifully blue, and its until then when you can finally feel and live completely, it’s like your nirvana.
Even if on your past you weren't able to appreciate love because you were running, now that you let everything go on the metaphorical fire without shedding a tear, you feel free and have a new strength to look outside for the things that you are meant to discover.
