3 AnswersWords & Wordplay1 decade agoTrying to figure out the meaning/theme to this song?
Song is Set Fire to the Third Bar by Snow Patrol
Lyrics:
I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from A to where you'd 'B'
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My fingers in creases of distant dark places
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've felt so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep it
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms

21 AnswersCelebrities1 decade agoAre the people of Y!A really driving you nuts?
It's making me a little angry that people are talking bad about Michael Jackson and saying how he was a child molester, not even 12 hours after his death. Yes, he may have done some seriously disturbing things, but either way he still was a legend to music and will be missed. It seems like people are speaking ill of the dead way too much, am I the only one feeling this way?
