I got a bigger shop of horrors
Much redder than yours
I got a bigger shop of horrors
There's evil stomping on the floor

Well, my bigger shop of horrors
Wants you on the display
Larger shop of terror
Won't you come on in and stay?
That itty bitty plant ain't scaring me
How could I be scared of clay, soil and seeds?

Well, it smells like a coroners
And the pipes drip rusty water
It's too dirty for the spiders
The floors could be a little whiter.

But they're too caked with blood, to even see the tiles
Every time we do it, I get nothing but smiles
Why is murdering illegal? It's just murdering man...
Let's have a blast!

So let your thorns rip out my eyes
Rip my chest wide open, take a bite inside
I'm sure all the fun we had will hurt
But we belong 6 feet under lots of dirt

But they're too caked with blood, to even see the tiles
Every time we do it, I get nothing but smiles
Why is murdering illegal? It's just murdering man...
Let's have a blast!

So let your thorns rip out my eyes
Rip my chest wide open, take a bite inside
I'm sure all the fun we had will hurt
But we belong 6 feet under lots of dirt
Now that fun we had is lost
Darling all that killing, honey, baby-doll, you're the most
When I see dry blood on some rubber gloves
It takes me to the time when murdering meant love

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
