I was just making fun of Michael Stipe earlier.

They stand inside me
And moments until
The one I leave
Colorless I kiss her cold forehead
I feel life
Loose it in a minute
And the ones to come feel too far to care
And I'm motioning still
They stand inside me
And moments until
The one I leave
People concertina to my private magic lantern move for me
With the senses all inclusive
In the theater of triggered memories
Motioning still
They stand inside me
And moments until
The one I leave
The one I leave
Moments until
The one I leave
The one I leave
The one I leave
The one I leave
I can't make heads or tails about the lyrics but it's a catchy song.
I just realized that the song in the OP has a glorious music video. All those sexy Civil War uniforms :drool:
Hah. I guess all the crap that's sung by the abominations we call pop singers.
Not even I Am The Walrus confuses me as much as some of today's 'hits' do.
Honestly, these lyrics just seem to me like it's poetry set to music.Quote:

Which worked astonishingly well in some places (like Idioteque) but also really explains why the title track never really made much sense (but is still smurfing beautiful):
I slipped away
I slipped on a little white lie
We got heads on sticks
You got ventriloquists
We got heads on sticks
You got ventriloquists
Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed [x4]
Rats and children follow me out of town
Rats and children follow me out of town
Frou frou! :D I love frou frou ^_^ Yeah Imogen Heap seems to just write poems and turns them into songs.
Yeah, except even poems tend to make sense and have some underlying meaning, Imogen Heap is the female equivalent of Beck. :D
Björk's lyrics continues to puzzle me. :confused:
Heirloom
I have a recurrent dream
Every time I lose my voice
I swallow little
glowing lights
My mother and son baked for me
During the night
They
do a trapeze walk
Until they're in the sky
Right above my bed
While
I'm asleep
My mother and son pour into me
Warm glowing oil
Into my wide
open throat
I have a recurrent dream
Every time I feel a
hoarseness
I swallow warm glowing lights
My mother and son baked for
me
They make me feel so much better
They make me feel better
We
have a recurrent dream
Everytime we lose our voices
We dream we swallow
little lights
Our mother and sons bake for us
During the night
They
do a little trapeze walk
Until they're in the sky
Right above our
heads
Right above our heads
While we're asleep
My mother and son
pour into us
Warm glowing oil
Into our wide open throats
I have a
recurrent dream...
They make me feel better
They make me feel better

You progress in letters, but you're used to cooking broccoli
The other side of take out is mildew on rice
And an obsession with the past is like a dead fly
Only a few things are related to the "old times"
Then we did believe in magic and we did die
It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides
You're just an inside
Adjust your insides
You're just an inside
don't even care, best song and music video by them ever
also, smurfing Radiohead - Talk Show Host. "I'll be waiting with a gun and a pack of sandwiches." Picnic and then shootout?
I TAKE SACKS TO THE FACE! What the hell does that mean?
that one actually is a perfectly cromulent sentence
I think the ancient dinosaur known as Thesaurus invades the studio of all Mars Volta recordings at least 1,954,382 times a day.
