| Song lyrics |
Go without,
'Til the need seeps in,
You're low anymore,
Collect your novel petals for the stem,
And glow,
Glow,
Melt and flow,
Eviscerate your fragile frame,
And spill it out in the ragged floor,
A thousand different versions of yourself,
And if the old guard still offend,
They got nothing left on which you depend,
So enlist every ounce,
Of your bright blood,
And off with their heads,
Jump from a book,
You're not obliged to swallow anything you despise,
See, those unrepenting buzzards want your life,
And they got no right,
As sure as you have eyes,
They got no right,
Just put yourself in my new shoes,
And see that I do what I do,
Because the old guard still offend,
We got nothing left on which we depend,
So we waste every ounce,
Of your bright blood,
And off with their heads,
Jump from a book,
And you're not obliged,
To swallow anything that you despise

Maybe I have a sick mind but....is that really what he is singing about? | 13-04-2007 21:33 Froggie775 |  6 posts

No, he's not singing about that... the line "Jump from a book" right before that should be clue enough that he's talking about "swallowing" ideas (ie. blindly believing everything you read). | 27-08-2007 14:08 _skatt |  5 posts
