Severed Hand

Big man stands behind an open door
Said, "leave your lady on the cement floor."
"got some kicks, want to take a ride?"
I said, "yeah!"
"take your pick, leave yourself behind"
I said, "yeah!"

I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below I am falling now
Oh please understand I just need, my friend,
a way a way a way home

Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it from the wedding band

Said "it's ok, do you want some more?"
I said, "yeah!"
"You'll see dragons after 3 or 4"
I said, "yeah!"

"Understand I'm not falling down"
I said, "look around, the room's taller now",
I can't close my eyes, 'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm

If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain

Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved we are free to grow
What is human, what is more?
I'll answer this when I get home

According to Stone:

Gossard: "That song is pretty intense in terms of the perspective of someone who says, 'F*** it. I'm going to go lose my mind. That's how I want to live right now.' It's a little bit anthemic. It's not necessarily embracing it, but everyone can relate to that feeling of, 'F*** it. I'm going to go get drunk.' That's an intense perspective to have. It's cool that it's balanced out on the rest of the record with some real characters."

One Became Five

I thought Eddie said it was from that ritual he was talking about in that interview on the radio with the dj who had gone through the ritual in peru.

Language means nothing. That's its beauty. However, we mean everything, and when language in its nothingness invokes a sense of our everythingness, it's art. I said yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

PJADED

Does anyone know where to find the lyrics to the new album??

FinsburyParkCarrots

On the ten club site, after the album is released, probably. Also, the album might feature a booklet with lyrics, if we behave ourselves.

I fucking love this song and I Fucking love everything Ive heard on the album so far.....


cant fucking wait.

OceansJenny

haha its about drugs!!! i started laughing when I listened to the song with the lyrics : )

"you'll see dragons after three or four
i said YEAH!"

hahaha!! and the room getting taller and "i'm not falling down" and seeing the sound in waves... definitely not about being drunk, either being high or on some thing else....

yeah, to go with the fact that this song is about trippin.

plus, it seems irrelevent what the floor is made of.

I like how Stoney tiptoed around the obvious drug references... hooray!

This song owns... or pwns or whatever that previously-hacker-now-myspace lingo is...
