Portugal. The Man – You Carried Us (Share With Me The Sun) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Taken from the deluxe CD booklet: Share with me the sun You forget sometimes it's ours Can't you see you're not the only one The doors all lead outside Feel it soak into your mind Can't you see you're not the only one As you slipped on down The length of my tongue Did you taste The salt that I'd become You'll carry us all Down from the stars And up from the sea Where everybody knew All you see and all you hear Is all you need and all you'll be It's all you create And it's in your mind Share with me the sun We'll forget all that is ours Forget me and all the things that you've seen The times already came with the news It was the world that took your brain You'll carry us all Down from the stars And up from the sea Where everybody knew All you see and all you hear Is all you need and all you'll be It's all you create And it's in your mind There's nothing I can say or do (There's nothing I can say or do) And there's no life for me to see (There's no life for me to see) Still there was nothing left of you You, you carried us all Down from the stars And up from the sea (And we all knew) You'll carry us all Down from the stars And up from the sea Where everybody knew All you see and all you hear Is all you need and all you'll be It's all you create And it's in your mind (And we all knew) All you see and all you hear Is all you need and all you'll be It's all you create And it's in your mind There's nothing I can say or do (There's nothing I can say or do) And there's no life for me to see (There's no life for me to see) Still there was nothing left of you There was nothing left of you |
Portugal. The Man – Head Is a Flame (Cool With It) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Taken from the deluxe CD booklet: I was born without a name A soldier for The streets they say This kid's on a mission Running high on fame of the guillotine No roots to find and no one to miss him My head is like a flame Well we all get strange And we know it But we're cool with it And we all get a little bit older In this day and age But we deal with it Shaking with a fire burning deep inside Still the politicians they never listen Blood money was a sound I didn't care to hear Of which the politicians they only listen My head is like a flame And my eyes were red Well we all get strange And we know it But we're cool with it And we all get a little bit older In this day and age But we deal with it My head was like a flame It was burning up, burning up It was burning up My head was like a flame It was burning up, burning up It was burning up I became a child of the universe Reborn into this galactic prism My head was like a flame Ah, my eyes were red Well we all get strange And we know it But we're cool with it And we all get a little bit older In this day and age But we deal with it My head was like a flame It was burning up, burning up It was burning up My head was like a flame It was burning up, burning up It was burning up My head was like a flame My head was like a flame My head was like a flame My head was like a flame |

Portugal. The Man – Floating (Time Isn't Working My Side) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Taken from the deluxe CD booklet: We may not be hopeless But we're still helpless in the end Just remember your'e floating Remember the love that we had then So inconsistently we spend Our time with family and our friends I know I'm not hopeless I'm only helpless in the end I know you'll have questions That may go unanswered in the end Did you forget you're floating? Did you forget that we were only men? But we can't live on For all time, time, time 'Cause time isn't working my side No, time isn't working my side No, time isn't working my side No, time isn't working my side But we can't live on For all time, time, time 'Cause time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side No, time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side Time isn't working my side |
Portugal. The Man – Elephants Lyrics | 13 years ago |
the whole "I found gold?gold got it got it?" part is obviously not right. but it's a lot of noise, it's hard to tell what's being said. my guess is: Up, up, up! Go, go! Got it, got it! |
The Sound of Animals Fighting – Act I: Chasing Suns Lyrics | 14 years ago |
also, anthony green was given the instrumentals of this song and was told to just sing. and he did it in only a few takes. so there was no writing process. this song, as well as the entire album, was all improvised. none of the band members were together to record it. rich balling just sent samples for people to record over. some of the band members never even met each other before the ocean and the sun. so i wouldn't go so far as to say the lyrics are meaningless... but yeah their pretty much meaningless. which is why none of it makes sense and most of these lyrics are wrong. i'm sure some of what he says aren't even words. but hey, it is fun to try and make it into words. |
The Sound of Animals Fighting – Act I: Chasing Suns Lyrics | 14 years ago |
ok just to clear things up: there are four versions of this song, from: 1) tiger and the duke demos 2) tiger and the duke 3) tiger and the duke [re-issue] 4) we must become the change we want to see [live dvd] -(3) is the only one without craig owens. it has matt kelly instead. -the only difference between (1) and (2) is an extra lyric by anthony green before "five on fire". -(4) is, of course, live with vocals by anthony green and craig owens. -on (4) anthony green switches up the lyrics a little. for example, he begins with "raise the bar, raise the bar" instead of "five on fire, raise the bar". so before you guys insult each other over who sings what, recognize that you might have a different version of the song than whoever you're arguing with. i also believe that, in every version, the third line, "we multiply" is actually "grace glorified". |
