Who sings this song?
Who knows my head?
Who broke my knife?
Who sings the wastes
When the sun shows its red?
Who suffers fools?
Who suffers stains?
In the real crooked boats
In the bottom of pastures
The cotton clouds sing:
"I am the post between the land and the bridge.
Yea, I call my believers to brandish
Their photographs of fathers in pools?"
Golden bomb
Who sings this song
That explodes in my palm?
Who makes these veins
That pulsate in your dawn?
Where you are you are you are
Slow down, the government is allowed
Where's the sun? Where's the sun?
Suck your berries or the train will not come
Proceed to my front door
Institutes must be the boyfriends of lies
With my eyes closed
Pavements sing of your daughter's reign
She's eating pills and calling him again
Who sings this song?
Who breaks my bread?
Who calls the brave?
There is a matter in the block
In the city, get paid
Who sings in pools
By the river that's stained?
By the pool in the backyard
In the pasture, I'll lie
With your trembling legs

"I am the post between the land and the bridge.
Yea, I call my believers to brandish
Their photographs of fathers in pools?"
Golden bomb
Who sings this song
That explodes in my palm?
Who makes these veins
That pulsate in your dawn?
Where you are you are you are
Slow down, the government is allowed
Where's the sun? Where's the sun?
Suck your berries or the train will not come
Proceed to my front door
Institutes must be the boyfriends of lies
With my eyes closed
Pavements sing of your daughter's reign
She's eating pills and calling him again

    Is the chord procession the same as Claxxon's lament? It sounds very, very similar at least.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
