- everything on Light Years, Sleight of Hand, Parting Ways, Oceans, Thumbing my Way and yes, Just Breathe and The End - but I am biased by the last two songs due to personal experiences.
Hear the sirens, hear the siren
Hear the siren, hear the circus all go found
I hear the sirens more and more in this here town
Let me catch my breath to breathe then reach across the bend
Just to know we’re safe, I am a grateful man
This light is pit, alive and I can see you clear
I could take your hand, and feel your breath
For feel that someday this will be over
I pull you close, so much to lose
Knowing that, nothing lasts forever
I didn’t care, before you were here
A distant laughter, with the everafter
But, all things change, let this remain
Hear the sirens covering distance in the night
The sound, echoing closer, will they come for me, next time?
For every choice, mistake I made, is not my plan
To see you in the arms of another man
And if you choose to stay, I’ll wait, I’ll understand
Oh, it’s a fragile thing, this life we lead, if I think too much, I can’t
get over
When by the graces, by which we live our lives with death over our
shoulders
Want you to know, that should I go, I always loved you, held you high above
too
I studied your face, the fear goes away.
It’s a fragile thing, this life we lead, if I think too much, I can’t get
over
When by the graves, by which we live our lives with death over our
shoulders
Want you to know, that should I go, I always loved you, held you high above
too
I studied your face, the fear goes away, the fear goes away, the fear goes
away.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Rearviewmirror, Tremor Christ, Satan's Bed, Bugs, Indifference, Inside Job grew on me (see post here somewhere), Force of Nature... Just to mention a few.
It's hard to say just one ... But these are some of my favorite songs:
- Come Back
- Unthought known
- I am mine
- Elderly Woman
- Got some
- The Fixer
- Yellow Ledbetter
- Animal
- Nothingman
- Garden
- Who you are
- Smile
- Off He goes
- Breakerfall
- The end
- Just breathe

Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
When progress becomes plausible
In reverse we curse ourselves
By thinking we're infallible
Are we chancing fate instead?

Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
When progress becomes plausible
In reverse we curse ourselves
By thinking we're infallible
Are we chancing fate instead?
You worked out the rest?
I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...
The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED
keep on locking your doors
keep on building your floors
keep on just as before
pay disasters no mind
didn't get you this time
no prints left at the crime
our ship's come in
and it's sinking
of everything that's possible
in the hearts and minds of men
somehow it is the biggest things
that keep on slipping right through our hands
by thinking we're infallible
oh, we are tempting fate instead
time we'd best begin
here at the ending
want a third second-chance?
put your faith in big hands
pay no more than a glance
all good things come to an end
this could be good as it gets
how's the view from the fence?
you'd think we'd been here before
you are mistaken
of everything that's possible
in the hearts and minds of men
when progress could be plausible
in reverse we curse ourselves
by thinking were infallible
oh, we are chancing fate instead
time we'd best begin
here at the ending
of everything that's possible

somehow it is the biggest things
that keep on slipping right through our hands

It's a fragile thing
This life we lead
If I think too much
I can get over
Whelmed by the grace
By which we live our lives
With death over our shoulders

I was absolutely blown to smithereens when I deciphered that one on maybe my third listen! When I shared it with my dad, he said that Eddie is enlightened.

Do the Evolution: it's herd behavior goes through my mind at least a couple times a day when I see people in action
and these tragic lines from Yellow Moon: They sky grows dark
With fallen stars
Who'd come so far
A headstone engraved
The colors turn gray
The black and white fades
I think LB is their best album lyrically since No Code, and their second best overall.

These lines from Thumbing my Way are great that haven't been mentioned yet, just love them.
I can't be free with what's locked inside of me...
If there was a key, you took it in your hands.
and
All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives
Choosing the shiny ones instead
Easy left me a long time ago
I'm in the fire, but I'm still cold
Nothing works, works for me anymore

"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Take my hand... Not my picture... Spilled my tincture...
Among others...
I've meant them like the rest
All the demons used to come round
I'm grateful now they've left
It's a fragile thing
This life we lead
If I think too much
I can get over
Whelmed by the grace
By which we live our lives
With death over our shoulders
