I, I might drift off
And if I do, my voice will carry dear
And if i can't hold a melody that isn't...
Interesting,
Then what can I put to my name?
Maybe its gonna be a shame
And if, and if..
I melt my hair with a flame
And if this candlelight only brings me to the top of my eye Game

But me telling you I vow my stories and you know that I delt with my own shit.
Can you hear the keyboard clicks?

Keyboards Click

Or is it just me?
I need another chemical fix, I'm running on empty
And i just cant see whats wrong with me, I am shaking
But not out of desperation, and I am shaking
Maybe it is desperation
And denial's on my brain, And I cant think twice
`Cause if I do maybe I might sacrifice
What I found in the first place, what I found in the first place
And keeping still is hard, and you know I just can't do it
And you know that it's just so hard to get through it
I wish I had a sheet where I was reading all these lyrics off of
But I don't and there's no music in the background
I've only got a flame that's lighting up my face and hopefully making attractive places
Seem closer to me
This is just my sorry attempt to being sexy
Can you feel it in my tone?
Can you tell me on the telephone?
Can you sense an awkward pause when I can't seem to think of the next word that's strained from my lips and you know that I just can't, just can't,
Figure out whats gonna be my next fix
Will it be a cigarette? No, I quit
I don't know that you can think of me too
And don't worry ladies and gentlemen
This song will be through, will be though soon
Don't, don't break
And don't tell us what you wanna do, you need to be fake
To understand how I feel, understand what I'm going through
To maybe realize what I am thinking is real. Real, real, real, real
This is where it picks up, picks up, picks up
This is where it repeats, repeats, repeats
Every word that I must say, and maybe you might think of what I do, I do, I do
Maybe I'm know, I'm know, I'm right
I might stress a little bit, I might sh-sh-shiver
And you might think twice about what you do `cause you might lose what you maybe think about, hey, hey
And maybe if I lit this match a little earlier and
Maybe if I lit this wax a little later
Maybe everything would be different
And maybe, maybe we call it the butterfly effect
We'll call it, (ah, ah) call it, (ah, ah) we'll call it
A deep breath
And the stereo that can't catch me
And a passion, and a passion that can't stay on beat

So this has been.my favorite song of OTEP's since it came out in 2004, and I always thought it was a song about a child's narrative of suffering in an abusive Christian home. But now that I am revisiting the lyrics, I am seeing something totally new. This song could be gospel of John but from the perspective of Jesus. Jesus was NOT having a good time up to and during the crucifixion. Everyone in the known world at the time looked to him with fear, admiration or disgust and he was constantly being asked questions. He spoke in "verses, prophesies and curses". He had made an enemy of the state, and believed the world was increasingly wicked and fallen from grace, or that he was in the "mouth of madness". The spine of atlas is the structure that allows the titan to hold the world up. Jesus challenged the state and in doing so became a celebrated resistance figure. It also made him public enemy #1. All of this happened simply because he was doing his thing, not because of any agenda he had or strategy. And then he gets scourged (storm of thorns) There are some plot holes here but I think it's an interesting interpretation.

Spirit Within
Bertoldi Brothers
Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Light Up The Sky
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.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
