and we continue to chase the sun
only to burn up both our hands
and we will find out what's to know...
in warning winds the truth will blow
you might feel I'm feeling all the guilt
dragging out the hours, all decieved
well, both are harmless and haunting to me
now remember your heroes
as a cancel out zero
like you were young again
a man you haven't seen in years
ressurecting your deepest fears
returns a favor unto himself...
by turning us the other cheek
you're another coat of red in hell.
kill this child to make sure I'd raise him well.
on a concrete road to recovery
cause I'm knocking over every cone
in front of me.
only to burn up both our hands
and we will find out what's to know...
in warning winds the truth will blow
dragging out the hours, all decieved
well, both are harmless and haunting to me
now remember your heroes
as a cancel out zero
like you were young again
ressurecting your deepest fears
returns a favor unto himself...

everytime i hear this song, i want to punch my dog because it's so good.
yeah! I'm with tsucol. well, sort of.
this is a good song, someone put up the lyrics to "Bigger Riff" that'd be so rockin....!
i have no ideaa what this songs about but it rocks, the drummings awesome, so huge!!! listening to this on low volume is a crime, i think they called it big riff because it has a whole mystical theme to it-led zeppelin-mystical-riffs-big riff, ah well, cant wait for bigger riff!!!
This song is one of the 'new' cave-in's best.
Along with Luminance this is my favourite Cave In song. Oh man they rock out. I agree with Convectuoso on the title. As for the meaning, I guess it's one of those ones that's strikes a different chord with everyone. To me it has this really huge religious aspect to it. Kinda about those things like guilt, repetence, fear, the stuff that 'God' supposedly advises us on how to deal with in the bible. But how, in the real world, it's kinda hard for anyone, even someone with a really strong faith to always be rational and mild. But maybe that's just me. Kick ass song anyway.
This song is unbelievable as is the whole CD. I agree totally with Julian about the meaning. Alot of religious feel to it , which being a former christian turned agnostic/atheist i can totally relate too. I love the last line. It reminds me of just how hypocritical and contradicting religion and religious people can be.
"on a concrete road to recovery cause I'm knocking over every cone in front of me."
HOLY GOD THIS SONG IS SO EPIC, I'VE COMMENTED ON IT 3 TIMES BECAUSE IT IS SO FUCKING GOOD.
definitely epic...
the whole last 3 minutes of the song gives me the chills... from where he sings "you're another coat of red in hell"... all the way to "on a concrete road to recovery" part... geebus.. also where he sings "you were never the one to slip away-ee-yay"... amazing part
Right on, Tsucol. This song...and Cave In...owns!
