(Chorus 3x)
Show me what lies just beyond my eyes
Would you take me to the world where my spirit flies?
Tell me is it really fact or a pack of lies?
What's beyond my eyes? (Why don't you?)

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes I see the blood on the wall
Neck and back start to contract
I'm bout to fall
When I open my eyes I only try to hide the pain
Cause legally, physically, mentally I'm insane

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes everything goes black
My heartbeat skips rhythms like a heart attack
I'm an insomniac with a nose bleed
You can ask Nosferatu bitch he knows me

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes I'm hoping everybody dies
Mission will accomplish when the carnival arrives
When I open my eyes the dead will resurrect
And we gonna issue bitches with problems with slit necks

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes
My body's paralyzed
Engulfed in the swarm by the Lord of the Flies
My eyes stay closed
My temperature falls
My bed starts shakin
Blood drippin from the walls

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes another day without a friend
Sick and tired, crazy and bored
When will it end?
When I open my eyes I wish that I could glue them shut
But then I couldn't see my cigarettes and I'd be fucked

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes I see how everybody dies
Hangin from a rope
All with fear in their eyes
Chokin on the lies, and the blood, and sweat
But don't leave now you ain't seen shit yet
Why don't you?

(Chorus 3x)
Show me what lies just beyond my eyes
Would you take me to the world where my spirit flies?
Tell me is it really fact or a pack of lies?
What's beyond my eyes? (Why don't you?)

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes
I can feel my ears bleed
Nerscleve shakin my hand
Wishing me Godspeed
When I open my eyes I'm in a trance
My only thought is rockin the dead until they dance

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes I see Hell turn to ice
Starving little children feedin on the rats and mice
My eyes stay closed
Angels fall from the sky
They said that it rains everytime God cries

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes I see Heaven on a cloud
All these people in the line but I can't hear a sound
When I open my eyes I'm steady fallin outta graves
Contacted by the beast of the flames and pure hate

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes the mirror goes black
A demon crawls through
And tries to kill me with an axe
He chase me around the room
Until I'm tired as fuck
And then I fell into the corner
Now I'm shit outta luck

(Monoxide)
When I open my eyes I'm only askin to be buried alive
I can't escape the voices calling inside
When I open my eyes I know I'm better off dead
Still lookin for a way to cut off my own head

(Madrox)
When I close my eyes the Devil then appears
And tells me he's been hiding in my closet for years
My eyes stay closed and he rambles on
And hands me the lyrics to a Dark Lotus song
(Why don't you?)

(Chorus Repeat until end)
Show me what lies just beyond my eyes
Would you take me to the world where my spirit flies?
Tell me is it really fact or a pack of lies?
What's beyond my eyes? (Why don't you?)

Show me what's beyond my eyes (Why don't you?)
Show me what's beyond my eyes (Why don't you?)
Show me what's beyond my eyes (Why don't you?)
Show me what's beyond my eyes (Why don't you?)

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
