Tony Baloni Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 Es Ist, Was Es Ist- recordung The liquid morning auburn sun Illuminating everyone The sensation's never done Sometimes it's lust, sometimes it's love Sometimes it's just above our heads It's not spoken but it's said We're gravitating towards the light In minus 15 Fahrenheit Through yet another endless night Sometimes it's here, sometimes it's there and when we see it, we just stare Don't let your gaze escape the glare We'll all meet again some day When we all know what to say We're all one hot spinning soul through a world of copulation Sometimes cold, sometimes acidic Sometimes it's a stand, sometimes it's a fall Sometimes it's nothing at all Yet you chase it down the hall Sometimes it's a squeak, sometimes it's a scream, but it seems that it's never what you mean, it's a scene from a film noir about your bedroom wall Not anymore, not any less Than an uneducated guess Cause we're just sorry sacks of cells lookin for some electrification and we'll go through hell to get it. HIT IT! Sex Love Joy Hate Fear Guilt Creation Destruction Sin Salvation Damnation Baby, we got it all Foresight, Hindsight, Blindsight, Stagefright, Left Right Up Down Back Forth Then Now What Who Why How Baby, we got it all Starvation, Buyers, Sellers, Interstellar Innovation Regulation, Degradation, Occupation, Paid Vacation, Monuments, Arrogance Baby, we got it all. Sadism, Masochism, Communism, Fascism, Socialism, Nihilism Islam, Existentialism, Racism, Sexism Baby, we got it all.
Farin Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 awesome track Sadism, Masochism, Communism, Fascism, Socialism, Nihilism Islam, Existentialism, Racism, Sexism Baby, we got it all. when I first read the lyrics, I noticed that "Islam" stuck out here, because of the missing 'ism' but the way you sing it in the song you don't notice that at all
The Seeker Posted January 8, 2010 Report Posted January 8, 2010 Agreed, this is awesome. I love the lyrics as well.
MuzikTyme Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 This writing goes beyond reading. I can actually hear it. Few writers can bring words to life but I'm safe to say that you've done it here, Tony. Keep writing!!!
Tenacious_Peaches Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 I really dig this one. I'd tell you that you're awesome, but I'm sure you are already aware of it. Hey, I'm listening to Pissed in Paris now.
Steel2Velvet Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Paul Simon-like in its flow and meaning. Exceptional, Tony!
