| Between the Buried and Me – Swim to the Moon Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I agree with mast0d0n. The musicianship on this album is great for every instrument and i personally like the sound of an ibanez, but i feel like Paul Reed's have more of that BTBAM feel especially they way they have been going with Colors and now this. And I also think fossil genera is my favorite song on the album. At first i was a little bummed at how they are starting to sound (the silent circus is still my favorite album) but i'm really starting to appreciate the technicality of everything involved on these past two albums. I've also heard about people hating fossil but I think those are the people who will always see BTBAM as the band that wrote Mordecai and all those super heavy death metal songs on the first two albums. | |

| definitely the best song on the album and i agree that it's about some crazy conspiracy theory, although it might just be one that tommy made up for this song... | |

yeah and the rest of the whole album in my opinion has to do with some sort of secret society type thing (or maybe aliens?) that watch us and decieve us in our everyday lives. if no-one else does, i'll put up the lyrics for Fossil Genera - A Feed From Cloud Mountain later, i think lyrically that song really ties the whole album together |

Everything's a novelty. Everyone grows but me. Close one eye. Step to the side. Everyone grows but me. Everyone's in fragments. Close one eye. Step to the side. From the simple idea of Change Blindness, our minds are not as they seem. An entire existence revolving around what we cant acknowledge. A brain malfunction we'll never admit as defeat... a constant determination to find truths... to find reason... to find comfort. An unspoken religion in being the ALL-DOMINANT... This is what we call a brain. This step will allow the universe to run its course. We have a short ticket and a lot is hiding... so lets take in what we can for now. Just like here on Earth (a notion we do comprehend) Hide what "others" can't understand. The universe is the biggest threat... overachiever that commands attention. Brute force of hysterical reasonings... There will always be a Marfa Close one eye. Step to the side As humans we could never be content with knowing all, yet we cant be content with the fact that our brains will never know. A mental surgery... a never ending journey... a technological drawback. Pushing us further from our natural minds. There will always be a Kryptos. Even things created by other humans should be considered in the experiment of an entire species of understanding. A magician's pure joy... A mind bend for the common folk... Follow the straight line... (A full house watching what we cant see) The ultimate deciever... Close one eye. Step to the side. We will ALWAYS be pert of the great misdirect... stepping in and stepping out. Mirrors and Obfuscation. |
