Isis – Ghost Key Lyrics 14 years ago
"A fire

Isis – All Out of Time, All Into Space Lyrics 15 years ago
Up until today, I would agree with walruspancakes on what this song is here for, but after delving into Wikipedia a little, and reading about the pop culture of House of Leaves, I think this song is influential from House of Leaves. Granted, it's been a few years since I've read the book, but the overall labyrinth-theme is played into music pretty well through this song.

Stemage – Library Lyrics 15 years ago
Okay, few months later and actually delving into the lyrics, and doing a little searching and picking apart, these aren't as non-sensical as I originally thought.

Ultimately it's about pirating, getting caught by the RIAA and begging for them to not erase a music library. Pretty good :P

Kasabian – Cutt Off Lyrics 15 years ago
That may account for the first verse, but the rest of the song wouldn't make sense for that connection.

The John Lilly idea seems far more likely.

There are more famous people named John that have done LSD than just Lennon.

Stemage – Library Lyrics 15 years ago
Ah, like most of Stemage's song on Strati, this song makes me giggle...

Non-sensical but highly entertaining lyrics...

"Care about nothing with my ass in full gear, fly away
Curled up in the bathroom with my head in my lap, fly away
Are they on the roof? Man, I think I'd better not fly away
I've worked my whole life building my Library"

Zeromancer – Famous Last Words Lyrics 18 years ago
Lyrics sound like a code of honor.

Tar for feathers
Blood for honey
Milk for money
Isn't it funny how it hurts
How it hurts

Trading parts of your life for others when being a musician, and when someone criticizes what you do, and not even constructive critcism, just criticizes, it really hurts.

You never see me make
The same mistake twice
You never see a tear
Coming out of these eyes
You never see me beg
For another shot
And you never see me change
Into something I'm not
Famous last words

Code of honor.

Stare at someone
You used to know
Laughs at you
Turns around and fade away
If only I could see it that way

Kill your senses
It can't be right
Isn't it funny how it hurts

Someone criticizing you, you wish you could just turn around and not let the words hurt, but they do.

Zeromancer – Need You Like A Drug Lyrics 18 years ago
I think it's about a guy/girl trying to get used to being without the significant other, or trying to break up with them, but kissing them just ruins that, and they "need them like a drug."

Zeromancer – Doctor Online Lyrics 18 years ago
I honestly think this song is talking about shooting games, like Quake.

In the video, Alex has a tattoo, and it looks like the Quake I trademark symbol, weird, eh?

However, how all the lyrics fit with a shooting game, beats me.

(Maybe suicide as in blowing yourself up with a rocket launcher? :D And someone taking your place as in, when you get pissed off, you leave the computer/console, and someone takes your place..)

Incubus – Monuments And Melodies Lyrics 18 years ago
After listening to this again, and some things have changed in my life, I understand it now, and I like it. :D

What has changed? My boyfriend moved away, three hours, to college, and I'm stuck where I still live going to a community college. >.< I can only see him about once a month. (I'm female, not male. ;) )

Studson, just to let you know, there are rumors that Brandon is BI, not gay, but... I wouldn't believe it, no matter how girly Brandon can act, he's still straight. See what marijuana can do to a guy? He was your average guy, until he smoked marijuana ONCE, and then he became all poetic fifteen minutes later. :p He was scaring his girlfriend (at the time) because of the way he was acting.

Anyways, gsmetal, you summed up what I meant to say previously... sometimes I can't get what I completely mean down in words, the problems of linguistics.

The Union Underground – Natural High Lyrics 19 years ago
Have you ever tried giving yourself a natural high? Quite an experience when I did it to myself a few years ago. It's not as extreme as marijuana high, no, but it's interesting to know that you, yourself, gave yourself a high. The way how I did it was stare a rainbow spiral for half an hour or longer, listening to trippy music (TOOL - Lateralus or Third Eye worked pretty well) and sucked on menthol cough drops.

Incubus – Follow Lyrics 19 years ago
"dont follow people. go your own path. ask questions. dont just choose to have the same opinion as someone else just becuase he/she is a higher status in society or perhaps more popular than you are or something.... im just thinking out loud lol "

I don't think you've played Halo before. The song means the exact opposite. If you've ever played Halo or Halo 2 on XBox live, you'll know that it requires massive teamwork to win. I've seen my boyfriend and his brother lose countless times because they've had a bad team, and they're both very good Halo players. I guess the whole "Don't ask, don't tell, follow!" is talking to a player that isn't as good as you are, and you're telling them not ask questions, don't say anything about what you're doing (as enemies in the vicinity can hear you, if you're using a headset), and just follow the person and watch his/her back. Almost like a CTF theme....

Incubus – You Will Be A Hot Dancer Lyrics 19 years ago
"how much different is it harry manback ive got both cds
and i havent noticed it "

Listen to them on headphones or earphones, if you haven't already. You can notice a big difference in sound quality. Fungus Amongus was the CD they wrote and released independently, because no one would sign them at the time. Everything they used in the CD was their stuff, they didn't have anyone helping them create different sounds and mixing the CD, unless they wanted to hire someone, but they were highschool kids at the time, and all of em had jobs except Brandon, so I doubt they could hire someone to do something like that. The version on Enjoy Incubus has a more professional sound to it.

Incubus – Monuments And Melodies Lyrics 19 years ago
Ever listen to a song and at first didn't like it, but slowly warmed up to it? That's how I am with this song. I was confused on the meaning of the lyrics ("You make me happy..") and how the song was done. The song gave this melancholic tone, but I didn't understand the point of "You make me happy.", it didn't make since to me. But after readin the lyrics, it does make since. The melacholic tone is due to something gone, something regretting, something missed. But, the person (highly likely female, I don't think something would be written like this to a guy.) made him feel good in the past. But he knew he couldn't see the person anymore, and missed them.

Kind of reminds me of "I Miss You", (almost) same lyrical content, but musically, different.

Incubus – Follow Lyrics 19 years ago
My boyfriend and his brother love Halo 2. Heh, but I've corrupted them both with the wonders of World of Warcraft. His brother plays Halo 2 a lot still, so I can ask him if he's seen either one of em. On Bungie's website ( www.bungie.com ), you can search for players on the game, so maybe you can search for "Cannibal" and "Missionary"...

A Perfect Circle – Passive Lyrics 19 years ago
My interpretation is someone seeing someone as a perfect challenge, as in, they want a challenge, and they see this person as that. "To become my perfect enemy." but, every bait they put up, doesn't lead to what they're looking for. The person keeps wimping out, and they're disappointed in the person.

Tool – Die Eier Von Satan Lyrics 19 years ago
When I first listened to it, my first thought was...it was a recording of Hitler or something, and "eier" meant Jews. (I have no previous learning of German, so I didn't know.) I found the lyrics. Translated them. Realized I was completely wrong. Listening to the song again. Laughed my ass off. From my mistakes I think this song means, mostly what Makoe said in the beginning of these assloads of posts to determine the meaning is:

It's a test for people to judge or not judge. If you judge TOOL as some Nietzche (I think I spelt his name right) /Hitler/neo-Nazi band, then you're completely wrong, and are missing out on some great music. If you look deeper, you find that it's just a recipe. But it's ironic how it's sung, because like I said, I thought it was a recording of Hitler at a political conference; and how Maynard puts emphasis on "eier" like he's meaning Jews..."AND NO EGGS(JEWS)", if you still think it's a Hitler recording, you'll think "AND NO JEWS", no Jews in the Nazi society. Ironic, eh?

A Perfect Circle – Imagine Lyrics 19 years ago
I don't how they ruined the song, no I haven't listened to the original song, but, I think this song is BEAUTIFUL. Reminds me of the magical/musical beauty they created in Thirteenth Step...APC is truly an awesome band, and this goes to show it. I don't see how it's drained of any emotion, because you can FEEL Maynard singing it, and you can FEEL the emotion in his voice. Maynard has one of the best singing voices I've ever heard, and he really uses it in this song. But yeah, I wish it came out earlier, I want this CD so bad.

Tool – The Grudge Lyrics 21 years ago
if this has already been said, forget it. but i'm not really in the mood to look to see if it has.

Note: Don't let yourself become overwhelmed with a grudge against those that have one [a grudge]. Stay open. Don't let some cloud block the view of your third eye. So, even though those that have a grudge and are more than likely blind by their hatred, don't let yourself become blinded by a hatred for those type of people. It's like saying 'You can't fight fire with fire.' Well, in the same sense, those words apply. But, to become one of.. well.. neither, to not hold a grudge against those type of people, is..exactly what you're thinking. Difficult. But, like it is said in this song, not exactly, but, "Be humble". Be nice, to everyone. Even if it is hard, do it just the same, and if the person has a problem with your niceness, then it's their problem not your's, and therefore, they're the ones with the life sentence of a grudge [prison] until they're proven guilty and wrong.
i know it sounds like i'm preaching..but, it's something else you have to look at. don't grudge and judge people with a grudge and judge people.

Tool – The Patient Lyrics 21 years ago
i know that feeling.. i deal with people like that every day at school. sucks ass. i feel like one of very few in this damned hell that is a service to others. i was made a fool in elementary because of this. i'm like.. extremely open and nice and shit. x_x. people use me...but..i've tried to raise a shield to protect myself from that. people have "leeched" my energy to the point of suicidal intentions. but..the "inner power" of being patient and waiting it out is much stronger than whatever they could take from me. i won't let them do this to me. i am my own. and because i'm my own, people admire me now. =/. i had one friend say that she..well..saw me as a person who became something different, you know.. out of the stereotypes..stood up for what i believed..you know.. that kind of stuff. she looked up to me because i did that...i was kind of surprised when she told me that..cause..i didn't really expect it, truly. i just *try* to be what i can. i try to listen to MYSELF. "..But our inner voices are yelling. There's a fist pressing against anyone who thinks something compelling..."-Incubus - Out from Under.. oi.. this is..going.. out of topic.. x_x but "Out from Under" has it's similarities to "The Patient". be patient in what you do. simply. don't give up. and in the end, you will be rewarded.

A Perfect Circle – Magdalena Lyrics 21 years ago
"Fuck your god, fuck your Lord and your Christ, he did this, took all you had and left you this way, still you pray, you never stray, you never taste of the fruit, never thought to question why." that sounds like a christian song? i thought christian songs WORSHIP Christ, not spit at him. besides, when Maynard was a child, his mom was.. i believe a Roman Catholic. SO I HEARD. she beat him in the head with a cross because he was playing with fire and she claimed that "fire was the devil" in Opiate, they also say that "Jesus Christ won't you blind me with your light and your lies?" and that of the Trinity, Jehovah and Jesus Christ wanted to rape the christians..probly their mind. quit being so blind. or have you been blinded as well, by "The Light"? yes, i do know that Alex Grey drew extremely intricate pictures that resembled Christ. but Christ was just a man, right? there isn't any proof that he's "God" 'cept a book called the Bible. and there's no proof that it's his "word". i was once a christian for the majority of my life. but, when you think about it.. all it is.. is some... facade..to comfort a person. no, i don't think TOOL is a christian band, yes, i do think they're religious, but in a different way. like some..random..person commented on a TOOL song.. they specialize in "Astral Travel" which is where your soul leaves your body on the earthly plane and travels on the plane "where all the dead people go". hai.. i think that's where their religion is. READ THE INSERT TO AENIMA. a brain that believes in something is infunctional. AND AN INFUNCTIONAL BRAIN IS CLINICALLY *DEAD*. Believe in nothing, if you so highly claim of Christianity, then you obviously don't know your TOOL musick correctly, ne~? read about Ritual magick and then post about something.

Tool – Parabol Lyrics 21 years ago
parabol..i asked my math teacher about this, this morning, as i bought the album yesterday and was confused about why Parabol and Parabola are spelt similarily. i though Parabol was another math term.. but actually.. it's a bible story, at least that is what i was told about it. and when you think about it.. it's true. not the damned christian bible, but as Alex Grey was making real, the Human Bible. *Our* bible. the bible of life. the bible of creation. the bible of religion is a facade lie. but the feeling of being real and human and mortal is reason enough to write a "bible story" about us. we are the greatest thing that we have found so far on this planet. but so many of us have taken the feeling for granted. as Infirmo said, live each moment..to the truest, most purest form. live like each second is the last. this song could be.. a plea for each person listening to do this. it's difficult to do such, and in a sense, you must act like you have been reborn. experience the same things that you learned when you were a child. one way i have found this to be possible is.. if you know a familar wall.. continuously run your fingers over it.. touch it.. BECOME the wall.. it's a way to "re"-experience it. but, do this with everything. apply it to every day life. try to find the "lateral" of everything you do. find a new reason, a new belief... this comment went a lil long.. =/ but.. if you understand what i'm saying... try it sometime.. the feeling.. is... familar, yet overwhelming warm.

pain is a good example of this. instead of considering as something that hurts. ENJOY the pain .. it makes the pain.. more bearable.. n stuff. but i agree with NewSkin's interpretations. that's what i kinda first thought when i listened to it. a good song, nonetheless.

oi..just something i wanted to add..if it hasn't already been posted..but i remember a song from a Spanish concert.. one of the songs name was "Magdalena" when i first heard of this song.. i thought the two had some resemblence.. but.. 'course i'd have to translate the words from the song.. but, aye when i do.. i could post those here and maybe that might add some similarity?

linkinparkdeftones, i HIGHLY DOUBT Maynard would be a chrisitian. think about it. listen to TOOL - Eulogy and one other TOOL song that i cannot think of..but..that should tell you well enough that Maynard ISN'T a christian.
