| | Brothers On A Hotel Bed Lyrics Artist(Band):Death Cab For Cutie
'Cause I'm not who I used to be No longer easy on the eyes These wrinkles masterfully disguise The youthful boy below who turned your way and saw Something he was not looking for Both a beginning and an end But now he lives inside someone he does not recognize When he catches his reflection on accident On the back of a motor bike With your arms outstretched trying to take flight Leaving everything behind But even at our swiftest speed We couldn't break from the concrete In the city where we still reside And I have learned That even landlocked lovers yearn For the sea like navy men 'Cause now we say goodnight From our own separate sides Like brothers on a hotel bed [x4] You may tire of me as our december sun is setting 'Cause I'm not who I used to be If you find some error in Brothers On A Hotel Bed Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Brothers On A Hotel Bed Roomates | Reviewer: lou | 10/23/09 it's about love growing tired. because people change and while at their core they are still the same little kids, years of crap ages you into someone you don't recognize anymore. And like many marriages, the love begins to fade because you begin to grow apart from this person you were once so close to and excited by because they are a stranger. so you sleep in separate rooms/beds. and you stay around because your comfortable enough to stay but not brave enough to leave. you love the person because they are family but for no other reason. if you've ever been in a relationship where you feel like "roomates" this is what they're talking about. Amour aimer aime amour. | Reviewer: Nobody | 8/3/09 I think it's about realizing that love can never work long-term, because if two people are still together in a year or ten or twenty or more, they fell in love with who the other person used to be, not who they've become. Clear meaning - distance, age | Reviewer: Ram | 6/10/09 Its obvious that the metaphor of brothers on a hotel bed refers to platonic love which in the case of brothers, is natural, but when it comes to a married couple, is not. Reading into the metaphor as being sexual actually misses the point so completely that it would in fact completely reverse the meaning of the song. Church | Reviewer: Nick Berrrrr | 3/15/09 we talked about this in church, i think it's about a man who when he was young he just had fun but as he grows up he starts relizing the world around him, and also about a couple who is so in love but grows apart and clings to having there own life and not wanting to be tied down but being trapped in there relationship but idk Beautiful song. | Reviewer: chris | 1/21/09 I think the song is about a man whose grown on the outside as well as on the inside. the person he once used to be is still deep inside him, but hes changed and things have come in the way of how things used to be. the person that this song is aimed at fell in love with the boy he speaks of in the beginning but now, since hes grown older and the little boy within him has been covered up, the two are growing distant. he wants things to go back to how they were, he doesn't like how things have changed. 'like brothers on a hotel bed' is a metaphor for their relationship now, they are still together but they are not close anymore, theyre as far form each other as possible. if you were sleeping in th esmaebed as your brother, you would be sleeping as far away from him as possible. the bed could be a symbol for their relationship, and they are both at either ends, alone, instead of in the middle, together. I love death cab for cutie, their lyrics are so meaningful and i can relate a lot to them. i love this song | Reviewer: grace g | 1/14/09 i fucking love this song its so........... i don't even the word for it but i love this song its like so ...... sad, happy and beautiful all at the same time its like hes a lost soul and you cant but feel sympathy and for some ppl empathy. just a theory | Reviewer: lola | 11/16/08 i think all the lyrics ending up to when he says "brothers on a hotel bed" inform you about how the man realizes how hes changed from who he was when he and whoever he is in the relationship when they met. when he talks about breaking free from what they knew and that people yearn for the sea hes saying everyone wants something different than what they have had for a while. you can tell hes scared that his lover will get sick of him because hes changed and that people yearn for different things after a while. i think its pretty clear hes scared that after a long period of time with his lover that they will get tired of the relationship and it will get to the awkward feeling of two brothers sleeping in the same bed. its like you dont mind because you care about them but its awkward because you dont feel that closeness to them. Amazing and Beautiful song... | Reviewer: libby | 11/13/08 this song is filled with emotion. many people see it as homosexuality, truthfully i thought that at first until my english teacher explained the meaning of the song. its about a couple who have aged and are growing distant from eachother. he believes that he is young and handsome until he catches his reflection in the mirror and sees he has aged and changed. the couple realize that they are tired of eachother and try to get the relationship going again but fails when old habits come back. the song is beautiful and sad. the title and "brothers in a hotel bed" means that they are growing so distant from eachother...relate it to if you had to share a bed with a sibling....the same thing. you probably were on the edge of the bed....thats the best way i can explain it.... Brothers being the key word | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/22/08 I can see were people could see it as homosexuality, but I don't belive thats what it is about. Some are using the arguement that a husband and wife are not like brothers, but not many express openly homosexual desires for their brothers. You may say I'm taking that one word to literaly, but let me ask you this, Why take other parts literaly but not that one, or vise versa? Meaning | Reviewer: James | 9/19/08 Its about one guy, looking back on being young and not taking the time to see change as its happening, rather looking at the past and present many years on. it talks of a man, who feels the same as when he was probably a young man but his body isn't matching the way he feels. To the people who think this is about homosexuals, you really don't get the music at all, the part; "like brothers on a hotel bed" refers to himself and his younger-self, because they're so alike, they're like brothers. get it yet?
