Appleseed Intro Lyrics
yeah. yeah - i recall the
first time i bumped heads with my
head led to a dead bargain, a
"thanks for nothin, lowlife", and a
start of "beg my pardon, "when a
dust mite harbored spite it barely
dents the cicada phase, blades averted
decorate the backs of
freedom fighters, servants pick those
steeples higher, man the loose can-
nons, "pennin for gold" "nah pennin for
chance to land in camps branded with
"push" stamped on their hand" lets
push. lets push up through the
now, lets evoke a vow of
zipped lips clipped to my peaking
brow (i'm sleeping now) i seen im-
maculate hearts blemished
under the mass of genie bottle
hostages who wish that a
third to her broken promises.
black spot of gotham, fragile
castle and master passageway.
even the innocent captives
bleed appleseed apple
seed, leave me with a breeding
hassle factor's feet. pin the
tail on the village idiot
turn giddy click stern greet a
burn it basics laid with the
modes of neurotic nitpicking
patrons and their pseudo potent
patronage ahh mood of the moment
gloated in splendor of its
greatness and i'm hella swamped
truly moody in my
days makeshift awakeness
act as if apathy's been your
best friend since the bonding i'll one
up you with love letters from despondency
honestly appleseed.
"pannin for gold" "nah pannin for chance to land in camps branded with "push" stamped on their hand" lets push. lets push up through the now, lets evoke a vow of zipped lips clipped to my peaking brow (i'm sleeping now)....
I think Aes is referring to those strange new-agey approaches to living a happy life. Desparate people clinging to superficial phrases like: "living in the now" and "universal oneness" to find meaning in their life...its almost become a fad and seems kind of cult like. Reminds me of the Landmark program...Strange self help groups/camps that dont allow much room for finding each individuals potential and answering questions, they seem to disallow thinking and keep it superficial in that "Be Happy Now!" "fake it till' you make it" style stuff... So when he says "lets evoke a vow of zipped lips clipped to my peaking brow" it reminds me of how those desparate people react to that forced hush of their intuitive questioning. So they zip their questions but still hold that "peeking brow" of worry and paranoia, wondering what others think...yet allowing themselves to believe they're finally "happy!" and living in the "Now!" but really...they're sleeping now...asleep to their heart and self growth.
i seen immaculate hearts blemished under the mass of genie bottle hostages who wish that a third to her broken promises.
So many kids full of potential seeking happiness fall victim to the influence of people stuck hostage to the "genie bottle" mindset, where they believe if they wish hard enough...focus hard enough...the Law of Attraction will bring them happiness...
In my opinion, depression is a blessing in disguise, trying to show you something is out of balance in your life. People fear looking into these sad feelings; thinking and feeling their way thru the muck back into the light...so that fear makes them view any negative feeling as threatening and toxic...when really its a blessing in disguise. Like an appleseed sprouting up thru the darkness, its up to us to nurture it thru all seasons so we can finally eat its sweet fruit! :) Little spiritual/emo but bare with me. What do you all think?
but i dont understand "who wish that a third to her broken promises"...any ideas on that?
