@[heltir1723:1595] anyone who has paid attention to interviews and knows what these experiences are like would know it was coke he was banging over 30-40 times a day. This is why he toured with Pigface - to kick H but then he got into shooting coke and caught hepatitis for a little bit.

ohGr – 101 Lyrics 13 years ago
i was previously unaware so many did not know the dialogue for the intro and that half is playing backwards... damn...
From 0:00


backwards: ...and i wish

forward: oh - my - God
what should I say about the world?

backwards: the world's a crazy place, full of hills and such, and oil with unleaded initials

note: when played in forward, "full of hills and such" sounds a lot like "should i Google myself?" ...and then that "oh - my - God" sounds like "dot - com - oil," LmAo :P

forward: chemistry - concrete - oiloiloil - creature'o'black lagoon - yes - no - Ford - Lexus - ...another one/1

101

seems like i am out of touch
twisted icy hands detach
seeing through this sad jigsaw
stitch work cancer working through
every saying has its day
every plaything goes away
eyes excuse what's to abuse
in seeing through what's safe to say

fascination with the truth
doesn't get much closer to
those things come in very clear
wish ahead course set disappear
every stasis minds the truth
every detail has it's good
flies surrounding pounds of lies
and stinking piles of undelight

ohGr – Eyecandy Lyrics 14 years ago
Eyes avoid the end before the truth
that makes the world inside the paint
that looks around this sort of game
it looks into the same old thing
it seems like it is all a lie
I feel like I'm about to die
and now I'm looking deep inside
and now it may keep me alive

Eyecandy what would make the world a better place for you and I

Freak sneaks a peak inside the door
where things have never grown before
into the depths of your intestines
and messes infected injects a love
into the wildest thing I know
and now its way too hard to grow
but everything that I will know

eyecandy
what will make the world a better place for you and I

Eyes avoid the end before the truth
that makes the world inside the paint
that looks around this time again
it looks into the color-scape
it seems like it is all alive
I feel like I'm about to die
and now I'm looking deep inside
and now it can't keep me alive

ohGr – pissage Lyrics 14 years ago
(we have some different spots in our transcriptions)
A very interesting reply and for a lot of reasons. in your analogy "purity" would be "truth." the first time i heard it i received the abstract visualization of cocaine being cut to whatever decisive degree and the baby powder being what's really happening right now around us and how the relationship to the volume of misinformation and other deceptions; things pushing towards delusion. i also visualized the curling corners of burning paper money stacking into the sky. the pharmaceutical industry 's win-win system constructed up over time on the very same soil where these veterans of war (as well as the REST of us they equally treat like their "property") sit in and rot in pill-dispensary huddles making bundles for the labs' pill races. i live disabled and have a 13 pill breakfast, 2 needles and 4 IV's and it seems to make me feel more touched by the track. every day i have an unreal amount of daMNed pill bottles sorted out in a row in front of my computer monitor and then even after morning dose i have to do some other shit every 4 hours or so. it's actually exhausting. it's an existence that feels very....well...gross, and i'll never be out of it. that line hits me very personally cuz every moment of every day i seriously do deal with the smell of death from several several medicine bottles and i know some or all of it is me that is what i am smelling die. these patriots have to put up with being stuck in this system and sadly watching a world less free than whenever it was in time they lost whatever they sacrificed in exchange for their current position. freedom has definitely gone toxic.

...also... *the lyric
"rotting under tarp"
has occurred to me before.
I hope I didn't type total shit, I'm buzzed and I have to look at the keyboard very closely to type

ohGr – pissage Lyrics 14 years ago
still walking out backward
stalked ass injured trip all over the mould
free markets of sunshine
violent burns out spattering pulse
missing misfortune
what's happening yeah it's happening now

sitting on the fence all is easy or split
when legs don't hold the system folds
still stacking it up now
your strength is coming from corners that curl
accented with perfume
the smell of death from the medicine bottle

still stinking of deadly wishes from the mouth of our patriots rotting on the top
pissing on the edge waiting for the proof
sifting the flour thru cut with the truth

still stinking our place up what's helpless leaked it out of the way
it's feeding on sunshine never give it up never get in the way
it's taking the heart of golden burrowing bugs that listen away
stinking in a space thinking it's a race
waiting for a sleeper pill ***", a drink" (2nd time)***
freedom free dumb-dumb fuckers let the time machine detoxify it

ohGr – Smogharp Lyrics 14 years ago
flight breaks the outer limits fade
and inner lights on thin ice, slowing
on down,
beyond,
my eyes
like deadly infants
with limbs of frequency scream begins
i'd like to fall
but the infant's mind
so blind, so DIMD, forever
and minE was gone
smelling meek this dies
you need not, a devil. HA!

say it mother, what if they...
something's not quite right, hear me
feed the anger, feel what made
the midnight sunshine gone away
pain, pain go away
see again to see the day
in what was once a monster stays
and sees that nothing lasts forever

grey now see me out to sea
grey now see me out to see me

ohGr – Timebomb Lyrics 14 years ago
my name is cokey
your favorite chokey
come on and check me out
friendship is fun
when you're on the run
from everything i'm about
some say it's silly some say familiar
wanting to be let out
i've dealt with billions of your resilience
come on and let me out
my favorite thrill is there in the end
i feel a timebomb ticking closer to my house
and you're free to go if you can

closer to the way ?i've become? before you were in my heart

and if i'm choking while you're still smoking
wash what the burnt left out
seldom the sum of what i have done
will leave you with empty house
some say my virus eat at the liars
waiting to spit me up
i spent your billions
taking the chill on
come on and let me shout

closer to the way ?i've become? before you were in my heart
closer to the way i've kept you
kept you from my heart

WHITEVAN
facing this prospect i settle for today's over-introspection
i feast upon decay
around me is misfortune my avenue of spades
digging all the so-called diggers digging his own grave
meet me, mr. indecision
watch his machine cave in upon itself then wash wash dinner time then the rinse away

the scenes are best from over there out beyond the shade
my diggers in their dirty coats
the attitude of spades

passing the inspection, no, now this is everyday
special forces special boots to stomp or comes to play
fancy men so over-suited for the final days
keep the prints in timely tense
wring out the bearing child at bay

christen me disaster
at least that's what i say
into which the thing determines which rate he decays
keeping loads of sunshine i love with the job i play
digging out this whole shitty world digging it today

white world

need indication my vindication
to know nothing exists opens all to "what" & "if"
portions of my emptiness sitting by the open door
looking up to take it out settle in to catch the show

read situation dead indication
feels like a clock i ate ticking in this toxic state
ready for an occupant
suck it up to sniff the paint
sniffing up the weakest link rising from the righteous stink

see simulation speak to take a piece of me
held by 2 walls of life
hope and shame we're burning bright
in the palm to brace the rope
firmly placed around my throat
inching worm upstanding comes and slipping through my finger burns

in such seclusion my own intrusion
upon my waking state each of us must face their fates
crawling wicked crawl some more
broken body crayon floor
pulling through to face the flaw pushing back you push some more

*dripping tap-tap temple door

Skinny Puppy – Killing Game Lyrics 15 years ago
the killing game is what you do when your lifestyle gets to a point that you're a totally freaked out shut-in, hiding from your freaking window blinds completely paranoid, feeling all the danger around you coming from your own deeds, your environment, all your social contacts, and even the sidewalk traffic and its ambient noise blaring death threats at you through the walls....
it is desperately trying to assert to yourself and your demons that you're holding the 4 walls hostage and not the reverse.
there was a point in time where people would pop in like the Candyman to see if i was dead yet and then stir me up with more paranoia and other dirtier, more toxic "killing tools" for me to play with and then they'd come back at some other point to agitate me and observe me slowly killing myself very much to their entertainment.
totally like demonic agents sent from some other dimension to facilitate and sustain my suffering as they seemed to feed off it for their own nourishment.

Skinny Puppy – Dal Lyrics 15 years ago
right right. something to the effect of:
"where are you going to go?" Where are you going to run?" "where are you going to hide?" "there is no one like you left."

-addendum on dal
one not owning up to responsibility for their actions, needs, and debts to the environment sustaining it. a doll running on an unrealistic diet of infinite resources where they're, in all actuality, quickly running out for everyone.
consumers who contribute nothing and continuously post date the same phony check for their tab they'll never really pay but only roll out more promises for reconciliation in some undefined future.

"dal" is also the first syllable in "doll-ar..." hence, never paid up, never completed, closed off, denying any end to the bill and the impending reality check.

one is often surprised when simply asking Ogre the correct line in this or that song... the transcriptions are a very tedious and difficult task.
i'm well aware we don't really know a lot of the lyrics, even where lines "sound" obvious, we have been corrected so many times on these things already... it would be arrogant and naive to believe i'm actually right about half the transcription work i've done with Mythmaker and i certainly do not...

Skinny Puppy – Hardset Head Lyrics 16 years ago
i like insideoucast's interpretation....

mine is different.
simpler, I think.
Hardset Head is the experience of having one or more peole in your ear, yacking, making racket, won't leave you alone. all you want is to be in silence with yourself. others intrude due to their misguided compassion. people wont listen when you say that you wanna be alone. you don't wanna talk about anything right now. these benevolent pricks fucking insist. SHUT UP!

Skinny Puppy – Glass Houses Lyrics 16 years ago
fragility of reality tunnel. the ease of "changing your mind."
we have freedom of reality within the centimeters of our heads, shut up in the darkness of our domicile sanctuaries.
we can walk out of our homes with an entire worldview in place.... only to have reality rain down like "solvent," eating our eyes from our us, the beholders, and all our presumptions of having any pitiful grasp on some clear calculation of any such quantitative and objective measurement, or model of our world and any concept of ultimate truth... smashed into fragile shards

Skinny Puppy – Cult Lyrics 16 years ago
a very sad song. this is what love is like for men. women are mysterious figureheads we surround ourselves around, never questioning their agendas/motivations. we are devoted to whatever insanity they insist and we give them the privilege to flip flop between completely contradictory ideologies. like a cult. irrational, but with a very specific direction. to men, women seem plain crazy. insane. when we encounter a new love, we might find ourselves caught in the illusion that "this one" doesn't have the curse like the rest of her cult, and our naivety makes us their cult. the figurehead of a cult needs no empathy with its human subjects so we are always alone. sometimes more alone than others. all scenarios equally painful when the one you live for refuses to look on you.

Skinny Puppy – Circustance Lyrics 16 years ago
the point of view of someone in a literal hell, describing all the options he can find around him ridiculous, phony, and absurd. an option for transcendence, escape, a way out has made itself available but that appears just as artificial and absurd as the circus where he suffers in the presence. a circus stance. a rejection of the perceived artificiality of prayer and the absurdity of its appearance to the soul who needs it most.

The Jesus Lizard – Horse Doctor Man Lyrics 16 years ago
My interpretation of the song concerns sex between two people with a large age gap between them.
On the ugliest level (the one my money days Yow was working on)the song describes an adult brutally raping a child. On a lighter level (doubt it's what Yow had in mind) the lyrics remind me of my own experiences with much older or much younger females. These are the things we say to ourselves and sometimes to the other party and it's definitely what I've been thinking while in the act under certain circumstances. I've been told by older women that I couldn't "possibly be ready for..." from their point of view. I vividly remember the girls back in jr high who seemed so naive to the point they were nearly like children to me. I remember the perverted point of view, where I felt so much bigger than them. More powerful and totally in control. That wasn't love-making. It was "hard." It was "cold." In those moments, pinning down my classmates, I absolutely perceived my c*ck a "weapon of war." These people come to us with their ignorance and their innocence expecting their concept of "help" but we really aren't who they think. We're someone else and they only knew our alias. -Rob McCain

i feel "Goneja" is about losing touch with one's own past & the cyclic "phasing out" of all the different people, cliques, & moments contained in its segments. a heavy, longing nostalgia for all those incredible people who were swallowed up, erased, or just lost in general during those smokey, surreal, crazy times, & the backdrop of all the fucked up, hazy-eyed, & bizarre people/circumstances that encompassed those special times.
