  • My sig.. from Off He Goes.
  • 'It's been about three days now since i've been aground.
    I'm no longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now.
    It's funny when things change so much...
    It's all a state of mind.'

    The one that really touches me "First he was stripped then he was stabbed by faceless men well fuckers, HE STILL STANDS and he still gives his love he just gives it away, the love he recieves is the love that is saved, and sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky, a human being that was given to fly"

    One of my favourite,too.so emotional,so worth having.so worth listening 10000000000000000000000000000000000 times.

    I 'll swallow poison until i grow immune,
    I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room.-so painful

    I could not take a-just one day I know, when I would not ever touch you Hold you...feel you...ever hold...never again...-so frightening

    I'll ride the wave where it takes me...
    Oh, dear dad, can you see me now
    I am myself, like you somehow
    I'll wait up in the dark for you to speak to me
    I'll open up...Release me...-so releasing

    Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name...

    Do I kill them? Become their friend?
    Do I eat them? Raw or well done?
    Do I trick them? I don't think they're that dumb.
    Do I join them? Looks like that's the one.-love this one,strong message


    But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed by faceless men.
    Well FUCKERS, he still stands.
    And he still gets his love he just gives it away.
    The love he RECEIVES is the love that is SAVED.
    And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky.
    A HUMAN BEING that was given to FLY........

    TOO MANY,TOO,MANY

    or you can come to terms and realize
    you're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh

  • I took a drive today...
    time to emancipate...
    I guess it was the beatings made me wise...
    but I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize.
    I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down...
    hand on my face, pushed to the ground...
    enmity gauged, united by fear...
    forced to endure what I could not forgive...

  • Trying to be a little different here. Most of the classics are listed already. Titles for any rookies out there (I'm not far from one compared to most of the people here!)

    DOWN
    ...
    rise, life is in motion
    i'm stuck in line
    oh rise, you can't be neutral
    on a moving train

    LIGHT YEARS
    ...
    no time to be void or save up on life
    you got to spend it all..
    ...

    NOTHINGMAN
    ...
    caught a bolt 'a lightnin'...
    cursed the day he let it go...
    ...

    THUMBING MY WAY
    ...
    i let go of a rope, thinking that's what held me back
    and in time i've realized, it's now wrapped around my neck

    Low Light




    completly agree...

    Low Light

    I'm sure everyone has their own interp. of this song... but to me this is a love song (about a two people) and the light referred to is God (heaven, spirituality, or the ablity to transcend this life, whatever one prefers) showing a path in life (a small low light ahead of you)... I think this is the deepest of all the PJ songs.

    I also love the lines...

    "can't wear my mask, your first, my last" and "books and jealousy tell me wrong"

    Lastly, another good line is from light years is...

    "no time to be void or save up on life, you've got to spend it all"

    Don't you know there's something inside your head, yeah.

    Oh, if I knew where it was I would take you there but there's much more
    than this.
    Ooh. Whoa, much more than this. Woh see the world. Much more than...
    Oh, much more than. Why?

  • the entire songs:
    *Black
    *Yellow Ledbetter
    *Wishlist - especially 'i wish i was a messenger and all the news was good'
    *Elderly Woman - 'cannot find a candle of thought to light your name'
    *Love Boat Captain - 'love boat captain take the reigns, mix the light into the grey'
    EVENFLOW MEMBER #009 and i'm LOVIN the new PJ!!!! avacado all the way!!

    i know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
    i HOPE you'll be a star,
    in somebody elses sky, but why, why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine?!
  • "I know some day you'll have a beautiful life, i hope you'll be a star....."U kno how it goes, so raw, so real, fuckin beautiful.
    I also like present tense, "Do you see the way that tree bends, does it inspire? Leaning now to catch the suns rays, a lesson to be applied". Again, beautiful, and one of their most underappreciated songs, me thinks.

    I'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
    I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
    I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind --
    THANK YOU, LOSTDAWG!

  • " All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiney ones instead. I turned my back now there's no turning back. Hang my head and count my steps as another car goes back..."

    I love the way Eddie captures life in this song...

  • The suitcoats say "there's money to be made" they get so excited, nothing gets in their way,
    My road it may be lonely just because it's not paved
    It's good for driftin', driftin' away

    Plus the ENTIRE rest of that song, thank you for documenting my life at this moment, for that I will be eternally greatful.

    YES!! one of my favorites too...that whole song is so damn good.
    I like this part too:

    'I let go of the rope, thinking my soul would will me back...
    and in time I've realized it's now wrapped around my neck...
    I can't see whats next from this lonely overpass...'

    There are just too many, but off the top of my head:

    Of course, Black: "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why... why... why can't it be? Why can't it be in mine....?"

    And Breath: "If I knew where it was, I would take you there. There's much more than this..."
