I assumed you liked Tool because of your profile image, that artist and Tool are linked in my mind

"Lateralus"

I embrace my desire to
I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected
Enough to step aside and weep like a widow
To feel inspired, to fathom the power,
To witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
To swing on the spiral, to swing on the spiral,

To swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground
I lose myself between the sounds
And open wide to suck it in.
I feel it move across my skin.

I'm reaching up and reaching out.
I'm reaching for the random or whatever will bewilder me.
Whatever will bewilder me.

And following our will and wind
We may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end
And may just go where no one's been.

Spiral out. Keep going.

The rhythm of the words in this song are based on the Fibonacci sequence (1+1+2+3+5+8+13) then it goes backwards, "swinging on the spiral" so amazing.

"a series of numbers in which each number ( Fibonacci number ) is the sum of the two preceding numbers. The simplest is the series 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, etc"

Alex Grey, he did the artwork for 10000 Days and many other things for them.
Chet Zar is another who did much of the animation for their videos. This dude is really cool as well.
Your assumption is correct. TOOL is my favorite, big fan since undertow. Was kicked out of school for that album.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will 'cause
I sure could use a vacation from this

Stupid shit, Silly shit, stupid shit..

One great big festering neon distraction
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

Learn to swim.

Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.

Learn to swim.

Fuck L Ron Hubbard and
Fuck all his clones.
Fuck all these gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.

Learn to swim.

Fuck retro anything.
Fuck your tattoos.
Fuck all you junkies and
Fuck your short memory.

Learn to swim.

Fuck smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas.
Fuck these dysfunctional
Insecure actresses.

Learn to swim.
'Cause I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.
Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.
I wanna see it all come down.
Put it down.
Suck it down.
Flush it down.


TOOL- Aenema. This to me is one of the most beautiful and hateful songs ever written about a city and its inhabitants.

Was reading it like damn I know this song. Great pick

" The noose" A perfect circle

So glad to see you well
Overcome and completely silent now
With heavens help you cast your demons out

And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
To the dead
To the dead

Recall the deeds as if they're all
Someone else's atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well

And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
To the dead
To the dead

With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down

but I'm more than just a little curious
(With your halo slipping down) how you're planning to go about making your
(With your halo slipping down) more than just a little curious
(With your halo slipping down) how you're planning to go about making your
(With your halo slipping down) more than just a little curious
Your halo slipping down
To choke you now

Breaking Benjamin "Dark of you"


It must have been inside my head
I’ve lost the hope that I have lived
And now, at last, it comes to pass
We sleep, we dream, we have no less
Along the path we lost our way
It’s all a game that I must play
And now the weak that fall return to ash, defeated after all

Fade away to the wicked world we left
And I become the dark of you
Say a prayer for the wounded heart within as I become the dark of you

Let go, we know this kind of life
We live, we breathe, we die
They call me to the light, forever lost inside
With every dream we find
We feed, we burn, we lie
The fall of humankind
The everlasting light

Fade away to the wicked world we left
And I become the dark of you
Say a prayer for the wounded heart within as I become the dark of you

Let go, we know this kind of life
We live, we breathe, we die
They call me to the light, forever lost inside
With every dream we find
We feed, we burn, we lie
The fall of humankind
The everlasting light

Fade away to the wicked world we left
And I become the dark of you
Say a prayer for the wounded heart within as I become the dark of you

save this selfish world
(Let go) save this selfish world
(Let go) save this selfish world
(Let go) save this selfish world

She smiles like a child with flowers in her hair
with blood on her hands
into the sun she stares
She feels it die
I heard her cry...

like the scream of the butterfly

Sunshine in the house of flames
she loves it where she gets it
but it's never felt the same
surgery, in the house of dissection
when your candle burns out.I'll resurrect you
she runs
through fields of daisies
yeah, it's just a shame that they eat their own babies
Who cares
cos the air is free
when you get there will you kiss the dead for me?

there's blood on the moon and the summer is cold
there's love in the room
but baby that's getting old
there's blood on my face sittin' on uhh dead shore
A highway, highway of emptiness and I'm getting bored

"Too Many Dicks (On The Dance Floor)" Flight of the Conchords

Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks on the dance floor, too many dicks!
Too many dicks on the dance floor, too many dicks!
Too many dicks on the dance floor, too many dicks!

Going to the party
Sippin' a Bacardi
Wanna meet a hottie
But there's Adam, Steve and Marty
There's Billy, Todd and Tommy
They're on leave from the army
The only boobs I'll see tonight will be made of origami

Tell the fellas make it understood
It ain't no good if there's too much wood
Make sure you know before you go
The dance floor bro-ho ratio
5 to 1, it's a "brodeo"
Tell Steve and Mark its time to go
Wait outside all night to find
Twenty dudes in a conga line

Too many dicks on the dance floor, easy to fix
Too many dicks on the dance floor, spread out the dicks

Too many dudes with too many dicks
Too close to my shit, too hard to meet chicks
I need better odds, more broads less rods
I came to do battle, skedaddle with the cattle prods

Too many men, too many boys
Too many misters not enough sisters
Too much time on too many hands
Not enough ladies, too many mans

Too many dicks on the dance floor
Too many dicks on the dance floor, too many dicks!
Too many dicks on the dance floor, too many dicks!
Too many dicks on the dance floor

Too many dicks, too many dongs
Too many schlongs, now sing this song

Pegleg Meg poem song reminded me of this oldie -

Detachable Penis
King Missile
I woke up this morning with a bad hangover
And my penis was missing again.
This happens all the time.
It's detachable.
This comes in handy a lot of the time.
I can leave it home, when I think it's gonna get me in trouble,
Or I can rent it out, when I don't need it.
But now and then I go to a party, get drunk,
And the next morning I can't for the life of me
Remember what I did with it.
First I looked around my apartment, and I couldn't find it.
So I called up the place where the party was,
They hadn't seen it either.
I asked them to check the medicine cabinet
'Cause for some reason I leave it there sometimes
But not this time.
So I told them if it pops up to let me know.
I called a few people who were at the party,
But they were no help either.
I was starting to get desperate.
I really don't like being without my penis for too long.
It makes me feel like less of a man,
And I really hate having to sit down every time I take a leak.
After a few hours of searching the house,
And calling everyone I could think of,
I was starting to get very depressed,
So I went to the Kiev, and ate breakfast.
Then, as I walked down Second Avenue towards St. Mark's Place,
Where all those people sell used books and other junk on the street,
I saw my penis lying on a blanket
Next to a broken toaster oven.
Some guy was selling it.
I had to buy it off him.
He wanted twenty-two bucks, but I talked him down to seventeen.
I took it home, washed it off,
And put it back on. I was happy again. Complete.
People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached,
But I don't know.
Even though sometimes it's a pain in the ass,
I like having a detachable penis.

Soundgarden, I wish Chris Cornell was still alive. So many songs he wrote strike me as much darker now that he's gone, a lot of them mention death, many even dwell on it

"The Day I Tried To Live"

I woke the same as any other day
Except a voice was in my head
It said seize the day, pull the trigger, drop the blade
And watch the rolling heads

The day I tried to live
I stole a thousand beggar's change
And gave it to the rich
The day I tried to win
I dangled from the power lines
And let the martyrs stretch
Singing

One more time around
Might do it
One more time around
Might make it
One more time around
Might do it
One more time around
The day I tried to live

Words you say never seem
To live up to the ones
Inside your head
The lives we make
Never seem to ever get us anywhere
But dead

The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
All the other pigs

I woke the same as any other day you know
I should have stayed in bed

The day I tried to live
I wallowed in the blood and mud with
All the other pigs

And I learned that I was a liar
Just like you

Audioslave

"Like A Stone"

On a cobweb afternoon,
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages of a book full of death;
Reading how we'll die alone.
And if we're good we'll lay to rest,
Anywhere we wanna go.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone.

And on my deathbed I will pray to the gods and the angels,
Like a pagan to anyone who will take me to heaven;
To a place I recall, I was there so long ago.
The sky was bruised, the wine was bled, and there you led me on.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone, alone.

And on I read until the day was gone;
And I sat in regret of all the things I've done;
For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged.
In dreams until my death I will wander on.

In your house I long to be;
Room by room, patiently,
I'll wait for you there like a stone.
I'll wait for you there alone, alone

 

[zephyr]

One of my favorites, "do what you like, just leave me alone" lol

Soundgarden "My Wave"

Take, if you want a slice
If you want a piece
If it feels alright

Break, if you like the sound
If it gets you up
If it brings you down

Share, if it makes you sleep
If it sets you free
If it helps to breath

Don't come over here
Piss on my gate
Save it just keep it off my wave

Cry, if you want to cry
If it helps you see
If it clears your eyes

Hate, if you want to hate
If it keeps you safe
If it makes you brave

Pray, if you want to pray
If you like to kneel
If you like to lay

Don't come over here
Piss on my gate
Save it just keep it off my wave

This song sums up a big part of my life.

All wound up
On the edge
Terrified
Sleep disturbed
Restless mind
Petrified
Clouds of fear
Permeate
All I see
Heightening
Nervousness
Threatens me

I am paralyzed
So afraid to die

Cut of cord
Warning signs
Never show
Tension strikes
Jokingly
Worries grow

Why do I feel so numb
Is it something to do with where I come from
Should this be fight or flight
I don't know why I'm constantly so uptight

Rapid heartbeat pounding through my chest
Agitated body in distress
I feel like I'm in danger
Daily life is strangled by my stress
A stifling surge shooting through all my veins
Extreme apprehension, suddenly I'm insane

No strong hope for redemption
A grave situation desperate at best

Why do I feel so numb
Is it something to do with where I come from
Should this be fight or flight
I don't know why I'm constantly feeling...

Helpless hysteria
A false sense of urgency
Trapped in my phobia
Possessed by anxiety

Run, try to hide
Overwhelmed by this
Conflicts delirium

Helpless hysteria
A false sense of urgency
Trapped in my phobia
Possessed by anxiety

Run, try to hide
Overwhelmed by this
Conflicts delirium

A bitter blow - a darkened maze
Can take you down
A fearless man - a shattered spirit
Will immerse in misery

Come see it - come feel it
It is here
Come see it - come feel it
It's alive

Delirium - out of bounds
Delirium - dying inside
Delirium - left to wither
Delirium - infernal Majesty

Count me in
(Let's) ride the storm
(And) fend them off
Set me free

A source of light - a tower call
Can lead the way
A scent of blood - a lust for life
Will take you home
A broken mind - a fiery soul
Will stand the pain
A tightened fist - a will divine
Can break the chain

Come see it - come feel it
It is here
Come see it - come feel it
It's alive

Which made me think of this.

Dead and gone, you and the hatred,
Ignorance, is searing in failure...
What is what, will always be questioned,
You're the one who lives in deception...

Bow to a god I will never want,
Look him in the face as I taste his blood..
Fall to my knees and forget myself..
Forever and ever and never I will
Rot with disgust and no dignity...
Enemy of me you will always be...
Fall to your death and accept the fact.
The stench of redemption there's no coming back...

Curse the plight and all explanation....
Jesus Christ foreboding impatience,
Step aside, and fall from your grace man
God the son, lost in temptation

Never will you rise from the flames of death...
Dying as you bleed and the your lies confessed..
Elements untie at the end you see...
Unbridled revenge in my heart unto thee...
In an endless sea of divine regret..
Living in the past with the words you said...
Anger disbelief will convince the soul...
The stench of redemption, you're dead to this world...

Dead and gone, you and the hatred,
Ignorance, is searing in failure...
What is what, will always be questioned,
You're the one who lives in deception...

Bow to a god I will never want,
Look him in the face as I taste his blood..
Fall to my knees and forget myself..
Forever and ever and never I will
Rot with disgust and no dignity...
Enemy of me you will always be...
Fall to your death and accept the fact.
The Stench of redemption there's no coming back...

Deicide- The Stench of Redemption

 

[zephyr]

Three different songs from thr album The Link by Gojira, my favorite band, ever...recurring theme of finding oneself, connecting to love and life...sorry I just can't seem to leave this thread alone

"Embrace the World"
I sit on a rock
Cannot be touched by struggle & confusion
I reclaim my space inside my structure
Look at this point
All is about nothing, everything comes near
The remotest parts of the world
By silence
We can dissolve disruptive vibrations
I have to try
Gaia's alive for good
Under my feet the forest
Over me the largest
It's roundness I feel
Lifelong misery
How do we get to Avalon?
There is a bridge beyond
Indestructible the earth is a temple
I cannot see what is wrong and
All gods are one
I close my eyes
I'm all around, I feel so present
Embracing it's vastness I hold
Facing the world
I become a part of it
I'm not alone anymore
I embrace the world


"Inward Movement"
Slow inside I take my time
Will come and fill the empty space
My wound I'll nurse I'll understand
My pain one day will disappear
The land beyond is deep within
I took the path & I cannot go back
I've just connected myself with I
But I don't know me that well as you see
Cover the distance
Find my world
I walk inside to the heart of my kingdom
Climb up a mountain and stand on the top of it
I am the king and I am the servant
Follow the rules of loving mighty power


"Wisdom Comes"

He who learns must suffer
And even in our sleep
Pain that cannot forget
Falls drop by drop upon the heart

And in our own despair
Against our will
Comes wisdom to us
By the awful grace of god

Ease your pain
I cannot
With suffering
I don't

He who learns must suffer
And even in our sleep
Pain falls drop by drop
Upon the heart

Against our will
Wisdom comes


- I love the lyrical theme of introspection and growing within

Cover the distance
Find my world
I walk inside to the heart of my kingdom
Climb up a mountain and stand on the top of it
I am the king and I am the servant
Follow the rules of loving mighty power


"Wisdom Comes"

He who learns must suffer
And even in our sleep
Pain that cannot forget
Falls drop by drop upon the heart

And in our own despair
Against our will
Comes wisdom to us
By the awful grace of god

Ease your pain
I cannot
With suffering
I don't

He who learns must suffer
And even in our sleep
Pain falls drop by drop
Upon the heart

Against our will
Wisdom comes


- I love the lyrical theme of introspection and growing within

To dry lands of life
I won't despair
I'll break this dark all around

Under the heavy sea
I'll search the flight of whales

To dry lands of life

I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my days
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
The place where I was born and raised

(The place where he was born and raised)

For six long years I've been in trouble
No pleasure here on Earth I found
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now

(He has no friends to help him now)

It's fare-thee-well my old true lover
I never expect to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon this train

(Perhaps he'll die upon this train)

You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
And you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave

(While he is sleeping in his grave)

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you never will see no more
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore

(He'll meet you on God's golden shore)

Soggy Bottom Boys- I am a man of constant sorrow

Dancing on the crumbling precipice
The rocks are coming loose just at the edge
Are we laughing? Are we crying?
Are we drowning? Are we dead?
Or is it all a dream?

The bombs are getting closer everyday
"That can never happen here" we used to say
Have these wars come to our doorstep?
Has this moment finally come?
Or is it all a dream?

Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
Is the violence in our nature
Just the image of our maker?
Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
To become something greater
Than the violence in our nature?
Are we not good enough
Or is it all a dream?

To a predetermined fate are we condemned
Or maybe we're a book without an end
We're not stories, we're not actors
We're awake and in control
And this is not a dream

So can we break this mold
And set in motion something new
Forgetting what we know
An evolution overdue
Fight the current
Pull the ripcord
Get away!

Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
Is the violence in our nature
Just the image of our maker?
Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
To become something greater
Than the violence in our nature?
Are we not good, good enough?

We travel back to what we take
We need a storm, let's pray for rain now
To wash these roads away
Let's get off track and wander far
Same roads lead to same destinations
Follow nothing but your heart
We're talking in our sleep
And sleeping through our lives
We dream of the places where we never die
We step from our shadows and into the light

Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
Is the violence in our nature
Just the image of our maker?
Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
To become something greater
Than the violence in our nature?
Are we not good enough?
Are we not brave enough?
Are we not good, good enough?
Or was it all a dream?

Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again

So if you love me let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn't there

Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know

I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your lights
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight

So save your breath, I will not care
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?

I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go

So break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself

And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care don't ever let me know
If you still care don't ever let me know

 

[zephyr]

Long ago, and, oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again?
Come back to me again and play your sad guitar
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do

Ramidi ma ma ba di ma
Ramidi ma ma din do
Ramidi ma ma ba di ma

That song always reminds me of Tommy Boy.

I just like these lyrics. emotional and dark essence to it.

The night approaches after dark you have no chance
Come when moonlight takes the sky you'll feel my dark romance
I'm on your footsteps as I wait behind your back
I spread like fire upon the streets I'm ready to attack

I'm the only thing you need
Upon your love I feed

When the clock strikes midnight
I'm on the prowl of love
When the clock strikes midnight
The time is right to call you out

When I'm feeling wicked and my blood is running hot
Electric is my touch baby you don't know what you got
Only the evening and the night I come alive
So try to keep you passion deep I need it to survive

I'm the only thing you need
Upon your love I feed

Dog goes "woof"
Cat goes "meow"
Bird goes "tweet"
And mouse goes "squeek"
Cow goes "moo"
Frog goes "croak"
And the elephant goes "toot"
Ducks say "quack"
And fish go "blub"
And the seal goes "ow ow ow"
But there's one sound
That no one knows
What does the fox say?
"Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!
Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!

Michaelangelo
Was giving a one man show
He had statues with such feeling
He had his Cistine Chapel ceiling

People came from Cocamo
Just to see this one man show
They say we can't believe what we've seen
Tell us Michael what does all this mean?

And he says that's what I do when I can't get no pussy
That's what I do when I can't get no pussy
That's what I do when I can't get no pussy
And I don't get no pussy at all

William Shakespeare was working at home
Finishing up a brand new poem
And a book of sonnets he wanted to write
And three plays he had to finish that night


He said I'll call this one Hamlet and this one Macbeth
And this one Othello and I'll take a short breath
That's when Francis Bacon appears
And says tell me man where d'ya get all them ideas?

And he says that's what I do when I can't get no pussy
That's what I do when I can't get no pussy
That's what I do when I can't get no pussy
And I don't get no pussy at all

You all remember Atilla The Hun
Don't think he thought that war was fun
But whether the battle was lost or won
He'd just look out at the bodies that were rotting in the sun

And say It's just what I do when I can't get no pussy
It's just what I do when I can't get no pussy
It's just what I do when I can't get no pussy
And I don't get no pussy at all

A couple weeks ago
My wife and I
Took a little trip down to
Mexico
Met this young girl there
We brought her back with us
Now she lives with us
In our home
She cleans the hallway
She cleans the stair
She cleans the living room
She wipes the baby's ass
She drives the kids to school
She does the laundry too
She wrote this song for me
Listen
Yeah
The other afternoon
My wife and I
Took a little ride into
Beverly Hills
Went to the private school
Our oldest child attends
Many famous people send their children there
This teacher says to us
"We have a problem here
This child just will not do
A thing I tell him to.
And he's such a big old thing.
He hurts the other children.
All the games they play, he plays so rough..."
Hold it teacher
Wait a minute
Maybe my ears
Are clogged or somethin'
Maybe I'm not understanding
The English language
Dear, you don't seem to realize
My life is good
My life is good
My life is good, you old bag
My life, my life
Just his evening
Some young associates of ours
Are flying in to see us from
New York City
They're gonna stay with us
Oh, a couple weeks or so
I'm gonna take 'em to
Restaurants and everything
Gonna get 'em some
Real good c*caine
They don't get much
Where they come from
And this one guy's wife
Is such a pretty little brown thing
That I'm liable to give her a poke or two
Whaddaya think of that?
Teacher, let me tell you a little story
Just this morning
My wife and I
Went to the hotel in the hills
That's right
The Bel-Air Hotel
Where a very good friend of ours
Happens to be staying
And the name of that young man
Is Mr. Bruce Springsteen
That's right, yeah
Oh, we talked about some kind of woodblock or something
And this new guitar we like
And you know what he said to me
I'll tell you want he said to me
He said, "Rand, I'm tired.
How would you like to be the Boss for awhile?"
Well, yeah
Blow, big man, blow
My life is good
My life is good
My life is good
My life, my life is good

Mcdonalds is a place to rock
It is a place where they buy food to eat
It is a good place to listen to the music
People flock here to listen to the music

Rock and Roll Mcdonalds

Mcdonalds will make you fat
They serve Big Macs
They serve quater pounders
They will put pounds on you

Rock and Roll Mcdonalds

Mcdonalds hamburgers are the worst
They are worse than Burger King
A Big Mac has 26 grams of fat
A quarter pounder 28 grams of fat

Rock and Roll Mcdonalds

Rock on in London
Rock on Chicago
Wheaties, breakfast of champions

Wesley Willis- Rock and Roll McDonald's
