The Cannons And Tanks Lyrics






Great Great song. I love it

"so i play with my shoes, i've learned to untie them with my eyes." The coolest lyrics i've heard in a while.

tsucol, i love that lyric but i dont understand it. anyone help explain the imagery?

pr0le... i think that what he's sayin is basically that sooo much shit is going on inside of his head ( all the wars that i try to explain get defused.....) that he has been struggling so hard inside and everything was mixed up so much that he finally got it and now he had control over himself, like its just a metaphor like he has learned to untie them with his eyes cuz he has struggled so hard for so long and now he's got it....well thats at least what im thinking, somewhere along those lines

to me this song is about someone who is furious about something, has so much to say, but of course, doesn't know how to say it. he is so filled with emotion and he wants to convey it with actions since he can't by saying the words. sometimes he feels irrational for the way he feels or the way he's acting, so he gets confused about whether or not this is right. when he says 'a walk is all that i need' he wants to let off steam so that he can be more calm and collected when he talks to her, so that he is able to convince her that it's finally ending, to get her completely out of his life. he doesn't want anymore of the wars that she creates inside of him.

orgasm's i've been looking for these lyrics everywhere! what a wonderful song. when i tried to write them out myself it came out: "all the wars/words that i tried to explain get confused so many times so i played with my shoes i learned to indite it with my eyes" and i liked it better cause it made it sound like he'd get so frustrated he'd just play with his shoes and think about what he had to say in his head and just blocked her out which is what i always do. but i totally agree with pearlysara. this is such a beautiful song.

the whole cd is amazing, i can't wait to go see them in 2 weeks.

Looking for these lyrics everywhere? Funny, they are inside the cd in the liner notes. If you love em so much, why not go out to your local indie store and pick up each of their cds. If you have no indie music stores near you, order it from no idea. If you love em, support em. Oh, by the way, Small brown Bike are amazing. Very unique sound. Anyone checked out the members side projects?

this was the first song i heard by SBB. they are awesome. I think the shoes part of the song is about how he has so much shit he would like to say but he could never get it of his chest so i got him down and if you look at your shoes your head is down which means depression, thats just how i looked at it.
