Tool – Opiate Lyrics 16 years ago
whether you know it or not everyone has their own religion. some are god fearing and seek religion out of fear... some rebel against it because we are imperfect humans and there is no way to really know the answer...

religion is simply what your answers to the questions, who/what/where/when/why/how am i here?

you must have faith and purpose despite the unknowns

adam and eve were perfectly happy in their garden of eden until they tried to answer these questions by eating a piece of fruit....
much like a drug addict that seeks his answers through hiding from them with his drug use, the only answer he gains is the taste and feel of his drugs, and he is still left without his answers
he is left seeking more, seeking that which he can never find
just like adam and eve were introduced to doubt by being introduced with questions only they can answer for themselves, they began to doubt everything.

i am not trying to say you need to just blindly be faithful, i am saying that once you find YOUR OWN answers to these unanswerable questions... make sure they are answers that you have every ounce of faith in

there is a drastic evolution from this to 10,000 days wings for marie. MJK does not believe in his mothers religion, but she showed him proof that it doesnt matter what religion you have if those answers make you lead the life you should leave


how could ANYONE EVEN DARE to question his mother's religion when she suffered for 27 years and continued to help everyone else until the day she died. her faith never wavered

it was not his mothers religion that touched this MJK who so strongly was once against organized religion, it was his mothers unfathomable FAITH when every moment of her life for 10,000 days she was paralyzed and every moment of her life for those 10,000 days no one would have blamed her for losing it




You are the light and way that they will only read about.

Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance,
(With the) burden of proof tossed upon non-believers.
You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one.

Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescents.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion, but
Should you see your Maker's face tonight,
Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:
"I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one.
Hallelujah, it's time for you to bring me home."




even to the end he stills doubts her religion by saying "should"
but he is guaranteeing her wings and her immortality by giving her the greatest gift a musician could give his mother... he gives her her wings with what i consider to be THE MOST emotional song they have ever done, wings for marie and 10,000 days
his mothers challenges have been immortalized in his words and songs "You were the light and the way they'll only read about."

DragonForce – Where Dragons Rule Lyrics 17 years ago
amazing song that really captures the emotion of that moment when two lovers, or "warriors" or finally take that final step to the game of sex, aka the "battle".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Full the moon and midnight sky
Through the dark they ride
Warriors of forever will sacrifice the night
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

imagine the two "warriors" riding through and spending the night together, the moon is full because their hearts are. they will sacrifice their precious time for each other.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One for all and all for one
The future time has come
Faces filled with torment
Your heart beats like a drum
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

now is the moment when the warriors will go for it, their faces are nose to nose, tormented by their feelings for each other, hearts pounding like a drum

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Never you will look back again
you'll fight on 'til the end.
Together we will live on forevermore
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is it, the moment the two lovers lives become entwined, the relationship has come alive.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this land we have defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we are defenseless in a land where dragons rule
In this land we have defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we are defenseless in a land where dragons rule
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Think about it, "this land", could either be your heart or your "special place".
The warriors, lovers, and dragons are all one and the same. they are defenseless because they are naked and exposed to each other.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Flash of steel in the mid-day sun
The battle has begun
Blood spills all around us but still we carry on
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The amazing guitar work escalates as the flash of steel is the lovers start going at each other. the battle, or sex, has begun. the blood spilling is the rest of the world carrying on all around them but still the lovers carry on together, forgetting everything but each other.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No mercy we will show to them
The white flag shall be raised
We'll fight for our freedom
Ride towards this evil place
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two warriors both show no mercy as they ravage each other, the white flags are raised as the lovers both want to be ravaged by the other. they will phuck each other like they are fighting for their freedom. they ride together towards the evil place, which in this case is the uncertainty of the future of this new relationship that has started.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We all stand until the end allegiance to this game
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The announcement that they will stand together, with allegiance to each other. the game is the relationship.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this land we've defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we're defenseless in a land where dragons rule
In this land we've defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we're defenseless in a land where dragons rule
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two "warriors" are making love like dragons fighting, rolling through the clouds. the land is the extacy of the bedroom, embraced together in the game of sex. the guitars are going crazy like the lovers

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sun set in the western sky
The battle's almost done
The victory will be glorious
Our enemies are gone
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The lovers have fought the boredom of life together and time has passed, the "victory" or "orgasm" will be glorious. For the time being at least, the lovers are happy and their "enemies" are gone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We all stand until the end allegiance to this game
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

the relationship

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this land we've defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we are defenseless in a land where dragons rule
In this land we've defended from all things dark and cruel
Now we are defenseless in a land where dragons rule
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sex makes you feel strong like a dragon, the two warriors sex lifes are alive because they escalated from being warriors to being mighty dragons, they rolled the dice, played the game, and won each other. the lovers are happy with their decision, they have joined their lands together, and seen that they did not let any evil in when they joined. they are the dragons but now they rule together

Tool – Rosetta Stoned Lyrics 19 years ago
plain and simple it is about all the profound moments of enlightenment people are gifted with while tripping nuts and how everyone is enlightened for that short amount of time. but its such a profound experience, why not write it down so you can actually send the message to yourself.

it seems to me that tool writes down these moments and that is why tool is tool

Tool – Intolerance Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this is a cry out to everyone. all the bullshizzle in the world is brought upon ourselves by ourselves. noone is innocent.

even the closest of friends lie, cheat, and steal from each other. we should not tolerate such actions. we have been far too sympathetic. we need to call out such actions.
Bring it to the light and it will become so.

Tool – Opiate Lyrics 19 years ago
I am going to come right out and say it:

I think that this album was made to brainwash people into a certain belief i will consider the Tool bible.

I think it worked on me. but i watched and allowed the process to happen.

Tool – Opiate Lyrics 19 years ago
zackisagg

you justified yourself to me. it sounds to me that you intelligently converse and debate upon your own personal experiences. self-questioning is what leads to self-growth.

do me a favor. the next three times you go to church. ask yourself. have you learned three things about your own personal faith and belief?

i dont know about you. but i find at least something every day that confirms my beliefs. i try to celebrate those experiences.

if your trips to church trully expand yourself and bring you closer to your belief without harming others than who is anyone, especially Maynard, a total stranger, to deny you from the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness

now remember, you should know when you have learned something worthy of justifying something as profound as a belief

Tool – Jerk-Off Lyrics 19 years ago
Thank you.

The harsh realities of the world put into song.
Very amazing. Very harsh. But thats what it takes.

The intro to the song is very interesting. Im gonna wear a smirk on my face as I consider the building to be a mind :)

does systematically removing them have anything to do with the first four songs being used to flip to the same page as the band?

its hard to put a finger but i guess that is the nature of the subject. justice is so complicated you just scream cause really, if someone isnt on the same page then the only way to deal "justice" is to shoot them yourself.

Tool – Cold and Ugly Lyrics 19 years ago
I really like this song and think it is a critical point in the Tool timeline. I see this song as Maynard throwing up the "We come in peace." greeting.

We are all individuals that live inside our minds. We are all sadistic twisted individuals that are just trying to survive in this world. Tool bears their soul. Tool is a tool, remember that.

Im hooked what is next? im trying to start over and see where it leads this time.

Tool – Hush Lyrics 19 years ago
Tool really set their identity down with this album

I totally agree, this is a problem that needs to be changed. One mind should communicate fully and truthfully with another mind. Innuendo should only be used when trying to hide something or when playing a joke. Sadly that is what we do to our youth. Why is it that we hide from each other? or is it all just a big joke?

I think im hearing joke. too bad it isnt always funny outside of a song.

I will just say that I use this song and milkdrop for winamp as the rather wild trolley ride from the parking lot to the theme park of life.

All the meaning that I looked for in this song for years...
Is there even any there?
Or does it just take me to the windowsill,
Forever watching and wondering?
