Song lyrics
Could you move in slow motion? 
Everything goes by so fast 
Just slow down a little 
Save the best part for last 

You speak in riddles 
Your intentions turn me on 
I'm yours forever 
Will you love me when I'm gone? 

You're an unfenced fire 
Over walls we travel 
It's you I admire 
My living example 

Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away 
Any minute now keeping 
Both poets and priests at bay 
Don't get ahead of me 
Could we just this once see eye to eye? 
What you offer has me 
Ask me how it feels to vie 

You're an unfenced fire 
Over walls we travel 
It's you I admire 
My living example 

It's a photograph discovered a decade after 
It's a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker 
It's enough to bring a brick wall to its knees 
And sing, please 

Could you move in slow motion? 
Everything goes by so fast 
Just slow down a little 
Save the best part for last 

You're an unfenced fire 
Over walls we've travel 
It's you I admire 
My living example

Man, I LOVE this song soooo much, Incubus rock they never fail me. I went out snd bought the 'Stealth' sountrack just to hear the new 3 Incubus songs, and I must say, even though 'make a move' and 'neither of us can see' are good, this is my favourite. Incubus r da best


^^^^me to Brandon and the guys

Yes of course you love Brandon Boyd, your 15. I hate that when little girls such as yourself get on here like "yah, the song is cool, but Brandon is like, such a spunk" it really pisses me off.
Yes, Brandon is gorgeous and talented and you are entitled to say "I love Brandon Boyd" because he's probably the only one in the band that you know the name of, but come on.
Learn to appreciate the music before the meat OK.

bloody uneducated youth of today I tell ya...

What the flying fuck..
Do you even know me to say that?
I don't have to prove you anything, but..
Yes, Brandon is gorgeous and I can and will say that whenever and wherever I want, but jesus, Incubus is my favourite band, I own all of their records, and FUCK, YEAH, I KNOW THEIR NAMES.
Mike, José, Chris Kilmore, Ben and Brandon. And before Ben, Dirk, as bassist. And even DJ Lyfe in the early early times, replaced after by DJ Kilmore.

So think twice before you judge people like that. I know all of their songs and all of their lyrics, and I believe they are just the greatest band ever. And just because you're eventually older doesn't mean I'm a dumb idiot fan girl who just pretends to like Incubus to drool over the lead singer.



I love Admiration, it's my favorite out of the three, Make a Move and Neither of Us Can See. Stealth wasn't much of a movie but Incubus is Incubus..

I agree with Mamphy. Just several hours ago my friend whose 15 (im 17) was over here. Shes like "omg he is such a root brandon i love incubus" bla bla. i felt like turning around and going WHAT THE F*CK, u have no appreciation at all do you. Shes not even in to incubus but you know what, shes a follower so yeah. Pretends she knows all the songs etc. A funny thing is with me, I never really heard about them that much, but i actually got sent there album in the mail, and i listened to it day in and day out, i listened to it for 2 months and never once saw there faces and i learnt to thoroughly enjoy the music. so yeah theres my life story. sure brandons damn hot but you gotta appreciate what he's doing, his a genius and he is one of my biggest inspirations. Incubus!!!

Are 15 year old girls automaticly followers?
Jeez. I even watched them live twice. I agree it's sort of stupid they only like Incubus for Brandon, but I'm not like that, damnit! It's also unfair judging me like that.

This song is a good Soundtrack song. Nothing special, though. I'm one of those fans who love the old stuff. Ah well, a band has to evolve.


* offtopic :
Oh. I'm 15, I guess I don't appreciate Incubus as a band. I mean, who would call driving 6 hours to another country for a show, because they weren't coming to Vancouver, appreciative? Goodness, that's a good question.

Intentionally i dont mean you im not being ageist and labelling all 15 year olds. i liked em as a 15 year old too but theres just those couple of people who are followers and pretend to like something because everyone else does. sorry if it sounded like i was saying all 15 year olds are followers and will never know the true meaning of music hey f*ck i was 15 not long ago

My point of veiw has caused a stir...I love that, but that was my opinion k and I judged you like that because look what you posted. Can I be blamed?? obviously not. Hey, seeings that you own all of their records you could have got their names off the booklet, but ok i believe you. Just think before you post because I will be the first to jump at any silly wench with a crush on one of the members of my favourite bands.
I was 15 once too, I didn't say I have some vendetta against 15 year old girls who are half mature and not just teeny boppers drooling over jesse McCartney or whatever ok. I said what I said and I stick by it.
Don't like it-tough cookies.

but, now knowing you are a fan of the music aswell I apologize. I didn't mean to come across as stereotyping 15 year olds or any teens for that matter, Im only 17 myself.

umm, but what did u mean by and just because your eventually older

How can I be eventually older...
I AM older, I wont be eventually- I am..
stay in your english classes hun

By the way, you're so much better at grammar. *SARCASM*
'seeings'? That can't be found on a dictionary. 'just because your'? You are = you're. I'm Portuguese, I don't have to speak English as good as you do.

Can I be blamed?? obviously not.
Of course you can. 'I love brandon boyd', in my POINT OF VIEW, can be taken as I love Brandon Boyd as an artist. Do you have any problem? TOUGH COOKIES.
Maybe you're pissed at the world and you have the need to jump at other people's necks for expressing their opinions. I don't fucking care.

Hey, seeings that you own all of their records you could have got their names off the booklet, but ok i believe you.
You like to make things up, don't you? You're sort of paranoid, aren't you?

Just think before you post because I will be the first to jump at any silly wench with a crush on one of the members of my favourite bands.
I fucking post what I want. Be sure to know me better before you jump to silly conclusions.
What if I had a crush on Brandon? Do you have anything to do with it? I think not.

I was 15 once too, I didn't say I have some vendetta against 15 year old girls who are half mature and not just teeny boppers drooling over jesse McCartney or whatever ok.

It most certainly seemed so. If I were 16, would I deserve more respect? And if I were 17, then I could say anything I wanted?
And jeez, Jesse McCartney is annoying.

Don't like it-tough cookies.
It's not a matter of liking or not - it's a matter of being untrue.

but, now knowing you are a fan of the music aswell I apologize.
If I wasn't a fan of the music I wouldn't be here, now would I ?

How can I be eventually older...
I AM older, I wont be eventually- I am..

How could I know that? You could be pretending to be older as well, and being a sarcastic fucking bitch to cover it up. But I won't ASSUME you are.

You don't have to apologize shit, just don't insult me, dear. Because you don't fucking know me from anywhere. Go laugh at 8 year olds or something 'k? Maybe that will be funnier?

Woah I was really getting into that argument with Anapiki and Manfat or w/e the fuck it was (haha). Why'd it end so early?! But I have to agree.. Anapiki has the right to freedom of speach.. and if you have nothing better to do than type up nasty remarks about things people you dont even know said, than you're probably some loser that sits home at their computer all day looking for problems.














I LOVE BRANDON BOYD TOO! (m i gunna get shit for that one?)

You guys need to settle down. Who really gives a flying fuck if they like the music or Brandon? As long as they are commenting and showing their appreciation for the band, I think that's all that matters.

ANYWAYS..great song. I love the lyrics

This is a gorgeous song. I've only heard Make A Move and Admiration from the Stealth soundtrack.. is it worth buying the soundtrack for the last song? This song is stunning and okay, I know Brandon is gorgeous in more ways than one, but there are more people in the band than him. I love Mike, Jose, Ben, Brandon & Chris (DJ) Kilmore will all my heart Bow down, people.
