Tool – Schism Lyrics | 13 years ago |
This song is about the tower of babel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel It's a biblical story about how after the flood all mankind spoke the same language. They decided to build a tower so tall that they could reach up to God. God was angry and he punished the people by giving them different languages and spreading them all over the planet, so that they could not cooperate to finish the building of the tower. Tool is singing about rebuilding the tower, probably not in a litteral way, but in a figurative way, they're talking about how mankind should "rediscover communication" and finding a way to reach God. At least, that makes perfect sense to me! |
Muse – Time Is Running Out Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Have you ever fallen in love with someone when you know you shouldn't? You keep telling yourself that if you fall in love you know it's just gonna hurt you and you will end up heartbroken. But you can't stop yourself, we can't choose these things for ourselves. That is how i relate to this song. I think I'm drowning Asphyxiated I wanna break this spell That you've created You feel horrible because you know how it's gonna turn out, but at the same time you are deeply in love with this person. The spell is the way this person makes you feel. You're something beautiful A contradiction I wanna play the game I want the friction You will be the death of me You feel torn because while you are blindly in love with the person, at the same time you hate him/her for doing this to you. A part of you wish that you never fell in love, but a significant other part of you can't stand the thought that you might never had met him/her. That part wants to see how it turns out, no matter the pain that is waiting. Bury it I won't let you bury it I won't let you smother it I won't let you murder it Our time is running out Our time is running out You can't push it underground You can't stop it screaming out Your time together is limited and you can see the end approaching. I wanted freedom Bound and restricted I tried to give you up But I'm addicted Now that you know I'm trapped Sense of elation You'd never dream of Breaking this fixation Again, you try to tell yourself that this can never work out, but you are so deeply in love that there is no way back. And when the person discovers how you feel about him/her you know that he/she will never try to talk you out of it. This can be love for a person that may be dying, og maybe a person that lives far away or something like this. |
