Default untitled lyrics message

"many times while you sleep
i'm dreaming of what to keep
to know your wish, hold it true"

I think Billy is telling us that he understands our wish to have all of his music "on the album". He is saying that he can't release everything he makes in a particular era because it doesn't all form a cohesive album. However, he does what he can in the way of releasing singles with b-sides, allowing live recording and trading, etc.

I wish he would release all his non-record-label-restricted songs as paid FLAC downloads.

Yeah but you can't ignore the fact that Billy hears his heart break. Every day.

Yes, every day

Well see he's on a mission

"Come back baby"

He lost a baby and now he's trying to find it. He figures if he plays enough shows it's bound to turn up at one of them. That's why he was so pissed at James for leaving the band, he was supposed to be scoping out the left side of the venues. Then during the TFE tour he brought a bunch of big lights so he could get a better look, and he had a backing track recorded so the other people on stage could keep a look out without being distracted by having to play anything

I think that in this passage:

"radio speaks my soul alone
forget my names, erase the page
antennas draw the passengers "

It seems to me that he is renouncing all of his previous music, and admitting that the Britney's of this world are the ones whose musical content is actually relevant in this day and age.

He's saying that the music of the past is now dead and we should forget all the classic rock bandnames, and deny that they ever existed, because the radio is obviously the source for all the best music, and he's sorry for the mistakes he made. He planned all this in advance, obviously.

I don't think we can discount

"Bury your heart in a hole
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHA
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHA"

Clearly Billy is a deranged serial killer who forces his victims to remove their own hearts over a freshly-dug shallow grave

Lee, is is wrong for me to have sampled the "I'm in love with you, so in love" section from luna so that I can masturbate to it whilst feeling billy's true feelings for me?

Yes it is kinda wrong, but it wouldn't be if you cut the words out of other songs and stuck them together to make that line

At least you'll always have Brokeback Mountain.
