Note that a lot of these are kinda personal, so I'll leave the explanation of what many of them mean to me rather cryptic. I.e. further interpretation is up to you. I don't explain because I feel it's inappropriate to share that much with total strangers. And be warned: this is probably the most revealing part of my entire homepage if you're even halfway decent and deciphering songs and their hidden meanings. Don't bother to nose around if you're looking for something funny or light-hearted. You're not likely to find it...

• Mr. Self-Destruct - Nine Inch Nails
  A rather romanticized view of myself...
  
• The Becoming - Nine Inch Nails
  Went through a rather rough time during the last three-quarters of 2002. This is just sorta what I have to say to the people that used to know me. It was a change. Good or bad, I still haven't decided...
  
• Even Deeper - Nine Inch Nails
  A lot of people think that the shit from '02 was just a phase. This is for them.
  
• Bother - Stone Sour
  Yet another tribute to '02. I can definitely say that year made me who I am today.
  
• You Learn - Alanis Morissette
  Yes, life will fuck you over, and yes you will get hurt. But if you live in a little box and hide from the world, the world will eventually find you and kick your ass anyway. So why not have some experience when Fate shows up on your doorstep in 'roid rage to make you bleed?
  
• The Couch - Alanis Morissette
  I don't know. I got obsessed with it back in '99, and I still love it. Which is usually an indication that I can relate. So here it is.

• Wish - Nine Inch Nails
  Pardon the misanthropy, but when you've been screwed over as many times as I have, you start to feel this way towards the world's general population...
• Happiness in Slavery - Nine Inch Nails
  Again, another dismal view of the whole of society. I can't stand the jerk-offs that act 'normal' just so they can fit in. If that's what you like, fine. But don't kill yourself trying to be the same. Or different, for all that matters.
• The Wretched - Nine Inch Nails
  Call me a sadist, call me vindictive, but every time I see someone that's caused me grief suffering, this starts running through my head, and I haveta smile.

• Something I Can Never Have - Nine Inch Nails
  Yeah, I think everyone can dedicate this to someone. We'll leave it at that.
  
• Hurt - Nine Inch Nails
  I tend to feel this way every time someone wants to get close to me. Which is why I keep most people at arm's length.
  
• Please - Nine Inch Nails
  Had someone in my life that was really desperate to have me around 24/7, and wanted way more outta me than I was willing, able, or ready to give. This song always brings them to mind.

• Heresy - Nine Inch Nails
  Hate Christians? Naw. Hate the people I had to grow up around (who just happened to be Christians)? Yes. Primarily because they pretty much embody this song.

• Not the Doctor - Alanis Morissette
  For my father, mostly. I love 'im, but "codependent" should've been his middle name.
  
• I Was Hoping - Alanis Morissette
  It's weird, I know, but it's surprisingly fitting for Beth and I.
