    Lyrics can often express an emotion or thought better than or perhaps more artistically than we could ourselves. Why would you get annoyed because someone chose to express themselves differently than yourself. I love sharing a nicely written piece of music with people...it doesn't bother me in the least that you choose not to, however.


    Bingo. Plus, when you look at some of these lyrics sometimes, they hit the head right on the fucking head.

    I dont really get annoyed. I take it back. I love lyrics too. I guess what annoys me is when they are used in a political way. I prefer lyrics like Release and Alive.

    so do you promise to bite me back?

    I bite hard. ;)


    Lyrics can mean different things to different people. And no one really knows but the song writer and most of them seem to prefer for you to take the song to mean whatever it does for you personally. It takes all the fun out of songs if it's meaning is already laid out for you. And blatant political lyrics are of course going to be used in a political way

    What did he post them for, then? The only reason my2hands would psot song lyrics instead of his own words is because he believes those lyrics have credibility and we should respect them.

    Bingo. People like to use lyrics to express their political/social agenda... I don't know why. sometimes I think they can't formulate their own argument by themselves, but that's a little too condescending so I don't know what to think.

    Pssst....it's because they love music and lyrics and like to share them....nothing more, nothing less.

    By that you mean you read them the way you want to see them. ;) You're (general you) looking for it to match exactly what you mean, even though it is not always the case.

    I'm not speaking about anything specific in this thread here.

    Everybody does that. Who reads anything and interprets it the way they don't see it? Unless it's obvious, then it should always be up to the listener what they choose to take from it.

    Sure. So, when you post lyrics to answer a question or state how you feel, while you may think you are coming across a certain way, someone else may read it totally different or not see a connection.

    Of course I guess that could happen with using your own words too...never mind me, I've been working way too much. ;)

    Sure...it's all up for interpretation. But we are always hoping someone will get us.

    Enough with the work already then...it's almost friday night!

    The bottom line, kiddies...
    you can have the best trainned soldiers with the best weapons at your disposal and the most advanced technology on the planet working for you...
    BUT...
    If you have a real Nimrod of a civilian piece of shit with no knowledge of what soldiering on means because his rich and influential daddy kept his C- average ass out of the Army's Regular forces and is now putting his frat brothers and former room mates and political ladder climbers in key positions as payback for political favors calling the shots... you are not going to be as effective as you could be.

    That song has absolutely no connection to any foreign policy, any where. It's about LA. I don't know why my2hands posted them, but I'm pretty sure it had nothing to do about foreign policy.


    By the way, let's ask him. My2hands, what were you going for when posting AEnima.

    That's putting it bluntly. Lol.
