    In the song Angel, the true part is:

    I'm not livin' what was promised
    I am close but can't enjoy

    but I used to think it was:

    I'm not livin' what was promised
    I am close from Kalimdor

    I guess it was the WoW hype, :lol:

    Sad:

    i used to sing (pretty recently actually) "and his holiness is proof" instead of "loneliness". DUH.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
    Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me

    You were actually not wrong.

    In the 1st and 2nd choruses, he says holiness and he says loenliness in the 3rd.
    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    Oh, no problem. I hate singing the wrong words too. I just wish this website would update some of the wrong lyrics. Some of them are just absurd.

    When I was very young, maybe the first few times I've heard the song Jeremy, I thought little of the song, thinking the chorus sang- "tell me spoken, yesterday"

    Man, was I blown away when realized the real lyrics and meaning to that song.

    Salt Beams, Salt Beams, Salt Beams, Salt Beams,
    Clearer......cleareeerrrr
    want you in my rear view mirrrroro


    I didn't KNOW it WASN'T "salt beams" until I just read the "sing out loud in your car" post.. I was thinking, "where do they sing "saw things" in rearview mirror". DUH!

    I thought salt beams fit cuz when you're driving in the snow and the road crew (not Pearl Jam's) sprinkles salt on the road to make it melt quicker. And that grime left on your car is salt beams---OH nevermind, that would be "salt streams". Whatever was I thinking! Oh now I remember--the "spray up" from the salt on the road from the car in front of you is "salt beams". But then again, it wouldn't be in the rearviewmirror

    For the longest time I used to sing "SUN BEAMS" instead of "Saw Things" until my buddy heard me and I've been ripped for it ever since.

    I am actually quite shocked :shock: that its not pissed on my plate.

    But then again,

    how much piss can a piss plate plate if a piss plate would plate piss anyway?

    In "Just Breathe" I thought he said "I don't want to hurt, but there's so much in this world to make me "believe", until I read the lyrics and saw that it was "bleed".
    M.Y.T.H. is belief in the game controls that keeps us in a box of fear.

  • I have the Corduroy "chains/change" and Rearview Mirror "pissed/fist" problems.

    I don't understand how fist makes any sense. or any more sense. Is someone smashing their hand down on the plate or what?
