Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Focus on nothing
Only your face
Follow me closely
Into the night
Just one last time
turn out the lights
and if you wake up
turn out the light
Oh no, not again
My eyes are ____ again
oh please, not tonight
black and blue over time
conceiled by the dream
kissing you, ____
we'll never go this way again
just wake me when its over
just wake me when its over
im not afraid to go alone with you
the wave of lights flies right off my face
the way the nights are made of me and you
these nights are black and blue
these nights (THESE NIGHTS)
these nights are black and blue
just wake me when its over
just wake me when its over
im not afraid to go alone with you
the wave of light flies right off your face
the way these nights were made for me and you
oh no, not again
my eyes are ___ again
oh please, not tonight
Only your face
Follow me closely
Into the night
Just one last time
turn out the lights
and if you wake up
turn out the light
Oh no, not again
My eyes are ____ again
oh please, not tonight
black and blue over time
conceiled by the dream
kissing you, ____
we'll never go this way again
just wake me when its over
just wake me when its over
im not afraid to go alone with you
the wave of lights flies right off my face
the way the nights are made of me and you
these nights are black and blue
these nights (THESE NIGHTS)
these nights are black and blue
just wake me when its over
just wake me when its over
im not afraid to go alone with you
the wave of light flies right off your face
the way these nights were made for me and you
oh no, not again
my eyes are ___ again
oh please, not tonight

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
I'm not sure if these are correct me if you have the CD/DVD edition of The Silence In Black And White, it's the last track.
i need this song! not that i really like hawthorne heights that much, but i have this rareoholic thing where i need to download every rare find i hear about.
It's not even rare they put it on the re-issue of their cd.
can you get it anywhere else?
i absolutely love this song. it rocks.
I have the cd/dvd version its not really that good the others are great though the silence in black and white is the best album they have done out of the two
I just love it when he suddenly goes "OH NO, not again, my eyes are heavy again"
It just gets me everytime lol
I just love it when he suddenly goes "OH NO, not again, my eyes are heavy again"
It just gets me everytime lol
i'm not sure if this is right or not but i'm pretty sure that they took the name of the song from Back To The Future II when Marty going over the water on a hoverboard and it didn't work.
'Focus on nothing, only your face' this line could be about kissing..
