| The Killers – Goodnight, Travel Well Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| You aint lyin! Tool is my favorite band and those two break me down every time I listen to them. I forced my wife (who is not a Tool fan) to listen to them one night after some wine and she sobbed like a little baby. Then I did the same thing to my sister a few months later (she isn't a Tool fan either) and she wept as well. I saw them play it live and I don't know how Maynard does it. Heart wrenching, to say the least. | |

I find it interesting that not many people (if any) have discussed the "great beyond" part of the song throughout these comments. I've always interepreted it to be from a first person perspective. I had a close friend die of cancer and a few days before he passed we were in his room in the hospital. At one point he told us that he may be counting his days, but we were all being rather optimistic about the situation. After he died, one of my best friends looked at me and said, "you know Johny knew he was dying." That still haunts me and probably will forever. I can't imagine what must've been going through his head at that time. He knew it was over. There's nothing I can say or do now. I do find "great beyond" and "travel well" very interesting. I'd like to know what Brandon means here. Where is that soul releasing to?? Very cool and very spiritual. Good work fellas. |
