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.

Go sing, too loud
Make your voice break
Sing it out
Go scream, do shout
Make an earthquake
You wish fire would die and turn colder
You wish, your young, could see you grow older
We should always know that dreams can do everything
Go drum, too proud
Make your hands ache
Play it out
Go march through a crowd
Make your day break
You wish silence released noise in tremors
You wish, I know it, surrender to summers
We should always know that dreams can do everything
Go do, you'll know how to
Just let yourself, fall into landslide
Go do, you'll know how to
Just let yourself, give into low tide
Go do!
Tie strings to clouds
Make your own lake
Let it flow
Throw seeds to sprout
Make your own break
Let them grow
Let them grow (Endless summers)
Let them grow (Endless summers)
(Go do endless summers)
You will survive, will never stop wonders
You and sunrise will never fall under
You will survive, will never stop wonders
You and sunrise will never fall under
We should always know that dreams can do everything
Go do!

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
i've been listening to this song a LOT recently. I love it, and the lyrics are amazing. I really enjoy the imagery that the lyrics have. SO GOOD OK, no one here has talked about the lines where he sings, "Summers". it's sung repeatedly in the background at one point. This is most likely because his boyfriend's last name is Summers. Just thought i'd throw that out there
i was jsut about to say that, thanks mate. cheers.
I was just thinking exactly that too! Like, even if it's unintentional; with that mindset, it makes the lines almost unbearably sweet!
His boyfriend's name is Somers... I don't really think it's a reference to him. But it would be cute. This song is incredible, the layering of sound is absolute perfection.
This is such a wonderful song. I'm a kinda melancholy person (my fav band is Radiohead, ffs) but I can't help but love this music dearly. It just makes joy bubble up inside me, and that's something I don't feel as often as I'd like. It's so beautiful and uplifting. The whole album just makes me want to cry (in the good way). It's got to be the most lovely thing out this year.
We will be ready with hands to drum when the silence breaks!
This song encompasses that feeling that life is unpredictable and sometimes confusing, but that there's hope in the endless possibilities we have before us... completely uplifting.
I hear the second chorus like this
You wish silence released noise in tremors You wish, I know it, Surrender to summers We should always know that we can do anything
idk if its right, but thats how i hear it
While I don't find it as appealing as 'Boy Lilikoi', this song is very good! The lyrics are truly sky-high, and the music has the ability to lift one's spirits, no matter how bad of a day it's been.
I hate most obviously happy songs. But holy shit he does it perfect. These lyrics are so amazing! Ahhhh! Perfection!
LOVE.
I am not religious, but this song seems to define this word and it's meaning:
Spoudazo - To exact oneself, make every effort, give diligence, make haste, be zealous, strain every nerve, and further the cause assiduously. Spoudazo combines thinking and acting, planning and producing. It sees a need and promptly does something about it. the word covers inception, action and follow-through.
Live your life for every moment you own, however never become a slave to your own ambition, accept what happens in life as your own process, but realize that you have the power, in your own will, to do anything.
If all falls apart, start again. Start from ground zero, but believe that you have the will to do anything and everything.
Listen carefully right after he sings "Make you voice break - Sing it out." the little voice samples in the background sound like "Go Go Go! Kitty Kitty Kitty!"
Ur mom's gay, you loser. Get a life, Jonsi has pure talent and ur a freaktard and need to lose it. Good grief! On the other hand, awesome song.Go Jonsi!
