| 30 Seconds to Mars – Was It a Dream? Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| My freshman year of college i was going through an inner struggle with my self and alot of people in my past. I didnt talk to my abusive mother for 2.5 years, and I havent spoken to a best friend in years. All i have are a few happy pictures. I felt like the only relationship I had with those people where through my dreams and my photographs, of course. I knew it was selfish of me to completely cut my mom off but she has been selfish as well with her temper and hurtful words and physical abuse. as far as "intensions being the same" it was just trying to proove to her that I was strong and I didnt need her and for her to see how cruel she had become. I would walk around campus in the middle of the night and listen to this song and cry. This song kind of echos when you listen to his voice..kind of like listening to yourself think of memories. | |
| Neil Young – Down By The River Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
New Orleans, Sep 27, 1984 Neil Young introducing the song "Down By The River": I'd like to sing you a song about a guy who had a lot of trouble controlling himself. He let the dark side side come thru a little too bright. One afternoon he took a little stroll down thru a field and thru a forest, 'til he could hear the water running along there. And he met his woman down there. And he told her she'd been cheatin' on him one too many times. And he reached down in his pocket and he pulled a little revolver out. Said "honey I hate to do this but you pushed me too far". By the time he got back to town he knew he had to answer to somebody pretty quick. He went back to his house and he sat down on his front porch. About two hours later the sheriff's car pulled up out front. It started sinkin' in on him what he'd done. The sheriff walked up the sidewalk, he said "come with me son, I want to ask you a few questions". As he heard the jail door shut behind him he sat down on a little wooden bench. And he looked out of the door - thru those bars - at this kind of wimpy looking sheriff out there. He started getting mad again and he realized what he had done. There wasn't nothing he could do about it now though. He just sat down and put his head down and he started thinking to himself "I'm all by myself here, there's nobody on my side....." http://www.thrasherswheat.org/fot/down-by-the-river.htm |
