Fear is an emotion inside us
Deeper growing my deaths content
Eating away our insides
Watching themselves and they step out of skin
So darkness it surrounds the being
Memories resurrected of pain

Remembered what?
Were reminded then
Of a the fear that's inside us and we'll give in today
Fear
Fuck you
Fear
Its inside you

Why am I here? Because you invited me
I can't help for your insecurity
You can't hide it from me cause I'm inside of you
I took it from you because your a freak show

I mend my soul without reason
Patiently conscience restrained
My life feels so nice
It seems my darkness disguised entity
Shrouded in lifetimes of misery
Turned and it swells in my fate

Repeated what?
Disregarded then
Of the visions in my mind reflected mistake
Fear
Fuck you
Fear
Its inside you
Why am I here? Because you invited me
I can't help for your insecurity
You can't hide it from me cause I'm inside of you
I took it from you because your a freak show

Why!?
Hostile manner that's my fear
Sets back in my body goodnight
Relayed needles
Now floating feeling with soul striped from rine
Wrapping dead bodies accending
Vision restored to my eyes
Confidence what ??
Through defiance why ?
I've just now lifted from dead soiled time

Fear
Fuck you
Fear
I'm inside you
My hand upon you

Your life gets a clue I'm finished
Why am I here? Because you invited me
I can't help for your insecurity
You can't hide it from me cause I'm inside of you
I took it from you because your a freak show

Fear its violent
Sleeping inside me
Cry out just can't sickness inside me
Sickness full of weakness in motion
Please let me free now get out of me!

Fear!
Fear!
Fear!
Fear!

    On The Beginning Of All Things To End this track doesn't include the sample, but the mp3 I have does, why is it not on TBOATTE? Is it because it was there orignally or was it because they couldn't get permission to use it?

    Good song. None of the older stuff compares to L.D. 50.

    I really need to get this album. Download it all or something. Then my Mudvayne collection will be complete

    Heh, so the first part of the song, this part:

    Mr. P, you have that funny little acidy taste in the back of your throat? (gurgle) Like that? Uh-huh. You can taste it? You know what that is? Uh-uh? Fear..

    is obviously sampled from somewhere. I was watching Ernest Goes to Jail today (yea, I know) and guess what? That whole first part of the song is sampled from Ernest Goes to Jail. Surprised the hell out of me. Mudvayne must be Ernest fans.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
