| Neurosis – Lost Lyrics
| 14 years ago

One of the first samples in this song is taken a novel called The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles...Great read. I used to listen to this song when I was younger and never realized...Read the book a few months back and was suddenly amazed that this song contained my favourite quote from it.
'Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well, yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless. ' |

Rainbow nailed it. A song for those who we've lost...This song helped immensely with the passing of a good friend of mine. One more and FORWARD again! |

As said, a very sad song. I for one would sleep a lot better at night knowing people like Brad and Loudog are still out there making tunes, kicking back and living it up for the rest of us stuck in the perpetual grind....Sadly, it is not so. It makes me cry. |

Found this explanation on a youtube video of this song...
'The song was created by a black woman who had to look after her master's child, while her own child died from neglect. She would sing this to the masters white child. It is right that it has such a sad sound to it really. The little lamb crying for its mommy is obviously her own dead/dying child. The original had the lyric "birds and butterflies, peck at his eyes", but it had to be changed to the less violent version...for the kids and all.' |

To expand on whats been said...Dennis Nilsen was a homosexual, who would lure young men/boys back to his place and strangle them to death. He would then keep the corpses, have sex with them, bathe them and prop them up in his house as if they were watching tv etc with him...Literally, killing for company. |

AGREED! One of the most incredible, flawless pieces of music I've heard...Every note fits perfect...It puts me standing at the bow of a large yacht cutting effortlessly through the waves and into the sunset. |

I think you mean Darryl Jenifers bassline. Dr Know was on guitar...Either way, one of the best punk songs ever written. Intro is fucking awesome.
To me, this song is basically about the world being fucked. |

Beautiful is the right word...Almost brings me to tears.
The mantra at the end is amazing to listen to.
3:45
Rathnaih kalpithamaasanam,
himajalaih snaanam cha
divyaambharam.
Jaathi champaka bilva patra
rachitham, pushpam cha
dhoopam thataah...
Shaakhanaamayutham jalam
ruchikaram, karpoora
khandojwalam...
Saashtaangam pranathih
sthuthir bhahuvidhaah,
hyethath samastham mayaa...

Leatpunk and mustkilltheweak you are both fucking morons. I am not edge, I listen to Minor Threat purely because I love the MUSIC they make, and the raw emotion in it.
I'm sure Ian would be ashamed of the asshole fans trying to sound superior. Jesus christ, who the fuck are you to tell me what I should be listening to?
Fucking cunts. |
