Fool With Dreams

Framing Hanley

You're a diamond how I found you I still don't know
But now I've got you and I'll never let you go
If your heart's a pocket looking for some change
My heart makes lots of sense
Just stay quiet, breathe deep, breathe out, breathe slow
Don't say a word
Let our eyes speak
And they will tell you

I'm a fool with dreams
And not a lot of things
I swear that I will be all you need
Don't give up on me
Give me one more day
Don't give this all away
We'll be fine you'll see
Just don't give up on me

I'd be lying if I said that I'm not terrified
Well how the hell can I do as they say and take this all in stride
Does this come with an instruction book
If so I need to have a look
Just stay quiet, breathe deep, breathe out, breathe slow
Don't say a work
Let our eyes speak
And they will tell you

I'm a fool with dreams
And not a lot of things
I swear that I will be all you need
Don't give up on me
Give me one more day
Don't give this all away
We'll be fine you'll see
Just don't give up on me
Don't give up on me

I know you're scared inside
But baby so am I
It gets so hard to hide
I'm not going nowhere
I'm not going nowhere

I'm a fool with dreams
And not a lot of things
I swear that I will be all you need
Don't give up on me
Give me one more day
Don't give this all away
We'll be fine you'll see
You'll see, you'll see

I'm a fool with dreams
And not a lot of things
I swear that I will be all you need
Don't give up on me
Give me one more day
Don't give this all away
We'll be fine you'll see
Just don't give up on me
Don't give up on me

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.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

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.
