"Tonight I’ll have a look
And try to find my face again
Buried beneath this house
My spirit screams and dies again
Out back a monster wears a cloak of Persian leather
Behind the TV screen
I've fallen to my knees

I said you got me where you want me again
And I can’t turn away
I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin’ like a fool
I'm stuck here in-between
The shadows of my yesterday
I want to get away
I need to get away

Blanket of silence
Makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
Burn all the evidence
A fabricated disbelief
Pull back the curtains
Took a look into your eyes
My tongue has now become
A platform for your lies

I said you got me where you want me again
And I can’t turn away
I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin’ like a fool
I'm stuck here in-between
The shadows of my yesterday
I want to get away
I need to get away

Now you know
Yeah you got my back against the wall
Oh god
I ain't got no other place to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin’ duck just waitin’ for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back against the wall

Deep in the jungle
Camouflaged by all the fallen leaves
A hand holds up the sky
While shamefully I make my plea
The alters callin’
But my legs won’t seem to stand
Guess I'm a coward
Scared to face the man I am

I said you got me where you want me again
And I can’t turn away
I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin’ like a fool
I'm stuck here in-between
The shadows of my yesterday
I want to get away
I need to get away

Now you know
Yeah you got my back against the wall
Oh god
I ain't got no other place to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin’ duck just waitin’ for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back against the wall

Now you know
Yeah you got my back against the wall
Oh god
I ain't got no other place to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin’ duck just waitin’ for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back against the wall"

By: The Black Angels [link]

Perhaps the most cerebrally dense, mind-bludgeoningly relevant modern music I've heard. It's a crime not to pass it along.

"Young Men Dead"
Fire for the hills pick up your feet and lets go.
Head for the hills pick up steel on your way.
And when you find a piece of them in your side,
Fire at will, don't you waste no time.

Another thought of the unaware, addiction in disguise.
With a drop of blood, you will take them out, for me.

Fire from the hills pick up speed and lets go.
Fire for real, yeah shoot to kill with no aim.
Head for the hills yes eyes on the camp fire glow.
Creep up there like a white mink hiding in snow.

And out of the black, a figure forms: a soldier in the sky!
With a drop of love, trying to set you free.

Run for the hills, pick up your feet and lets go.
We did our jobs, pick up speed now lets move.
The trees cant grow without the sun in their eyes.
And we can't live if we're too afraid to die.

Hold on tight, yes hold on tight you're too slow!

Fire at the breeze that blows these thoughts through our mind.
Hire only thieves to steal the thoughts from our heads.


"The First Vietnamese War"
You gave a gift to me,
In my young age.
You sent me overseas,
And put the fear in me,
And I ask what for now?
Why me, why war?
And I ask what for now?
Vietnam War?
Spend my time there by the shore.

Oh we got off that boat.
Charlies everywhere!
A lotta killin' and dyin,'
And no one seems to care.
I ask what for now?
We say hell no!
And I ask what for?
Why me, why war?
And I spend my time there by the shore.

Sixty thousand men died.
While you were here.
You came into our homes,
And you took our kids,
And you ask for more now;
For this new war.
And you ask for more now;
Vietnam War.
I spend my time there by the shore.


"The Sniper At The Gates of Heaven"
Where do you go when heaven calls you?
What do you do, who do you turn to?
How old will you be when they finally catch you?
Don't stop moving they're right behind you.
When theres no one left on this Earth,
You know who can save you kids;
So just wake up, wake up, wake up!

What is it like when hell surrounds you?
How hot does it get? I think I've already felt it.
Is there any way out? You better find one.
Where do you go down into the foxhole
Oh when theres no one here in this world of truths
Who knows first-hand
So just wake up, wake up, wake up!


"The Prodigal Sun"
You scare us, yeah, you welcome us,
and you motion us to move our mouths.
and we lie, yes we lie.

You know our thoughts, you put them there.
You free us, tell us where to fall,
so we hide, yes we hide.

When I breath again, I swear, it'll be with you.

You make us yeah, you cure us yes.
You kill the calf, as we second guess the first try,
the suns too cold, oh no.

The darkness falls, as nothing moves.
Your heartbeat slows, it gets too cold so you sleep,
yes we all sleep.
When i rise again,

I swear, it'll be with you.


"Black Grease"
You're a storm, you're so emotional
Moody and controlled, sly and involved
You're alright, you come to me in times
You make me realize I'm not the kindest guy

But I give, give, give, give
I give what I can give
So just give, give, give, give
Give me what you have, dear

Slow, you kept me in that storm
You showed me things galore
Made me want much more
And now denied, the things I saw inside
The things I saw inside is what really caught my eye

And you give, give, give, give
Just give what you can
And I'll live, live, live, live
Live while I can, dear

You're so surprised, you see me put up fights
You hear me realize, you come along for rides
You're just so kind, the eagle with red wine
You made me see that bright eye between me and time

To just kill, kill, kill, kill
You kill what you can
And you kill, kill, kill, kill
Anything you want


"Manipulation"
Red and green was the color of her dress, manipulation.
Pale blue was the color of her eyes, manipulation.
Yellow, yellow was her hair,
Orange sunburst red hot glare,
Manipulation, manipulation.

And you can feel her madness,
She will call you out.
Watch out for her dark side,
Cause you'll soon figure out.
So run on!
She's training you,
and she's got you dancing.

Red and green was the color of the ground, manipulation.
Pale blue was the color of the steel, manipulation.
Yellow yellow was her hair,
Icy gray was her glare,
Manipulation, manipulation.

And you can feel her madness.
See right through her smile.
Don't you turn your back and,
You'll soon figure out.
So run on!
She's training you,
and she's got you dancing.

Red and green was the color of the money in her hand.
Pale blue were the color of the flowers on his casket.
Yellow yellow was her hair,
Icy gray was her glare,
Manipulation, manipulation.

And you can see her sadness.
She will call you out.
Watch out for her dark side,
'Cause you'll soon figure out.
So run on!
She's training you,
And she's got you dancing.


"Empire"
Oh, the empires calling,
Trying to hear his voice,
While he’s preaching to the choir,
And that choir is death and noise.

And he closes up his fist, and he sees if they exist.

Angels with broken wings,
Melodic harmonies she sings.
She brings you white daffodils,
You place them on your windowsill.

Then you open up your fist, and you see if they exist.

Well you sit in dark forests,
You’ve been there for quite a while.
And when they come to take you,
You just sit and smile.

You say, “Hey, you take this. I’m gonna see if you exist.”

Oh it’s time to leave here,
And I still have my knife,
And it’s pressed up against my body,
Tonights gonna be the night.

And I cut my own wrist, just to see if I exist.


"Better Off Alone"
I feel so low.

Try me out for the evening. Living in a lie.
Your figure is alarming, take me to that fire.
Im better off alone.

Living with a lady, one who helps me to decide.
Take me to that room girl, get me through this night.
I'm better off with one.

Punish yourself on the weekend, you sneak into that bar.
Open up that box girl, all that whisky is gone.
I'm better off alone.


"Bloodhounds On My Trail"
Standing on the front porch, looking left and looking right.
The bloodhounds out to get me, I already feel the bite.
The rules of the road state, to hate those who hate.
Sleeping in wet coffins, frozen warnings melt away.

But you say no to me, just quit saying no to me.
Just stop saying no to me, 500 times a day see.

The billboards on the highway, are the prophets of today.
The roadkill speaks in poems through ads and through campaigns.
The warden has his rifle, and the sniper's like an owl.
I'm hiding in the tall grass with God and Vernon Howell.

But you say no to me, yes you say no to me.
Just quit saying no to me, 500 times a day see.


"A Call To Arms"
He drives a 90,000 dollar jaguar to work everyday;
He put his wife and kids in the zoo,
'Cuz he had nothing left to do,
Nothing left to do.
oh, Boo-hoo-hoo, Boo-hoo-hoo

He bought a ticket for heaven, but it expired in June;
The gun went off, but it was never on.
The trigger to the finger, the finger to the trigger.
One eye took the aim, just behind the man's brain.
But who is to blame? I just think he's plain jane;
Plain, plain jane.

When I awoke, my head was up off the ground;
Nature spinning. Oh but shes making no sound,
Blessed she tells us all that she knows,
Yeah let the people live;
Let the riches flow,
I found, well I found you at the fault,
And it didnt mean, nothin at all.

You keep your money in stocks at the county garbage dump.
You spend your days on tar, at the local gas pump.
You came in on your own, and you'll leave all alone.
You came in on your own, and you'll leave all alone.

As a start we off'd go down the path,
Of fields of gold, a vision that soon will pass;
A great mistake, the diamond on his face,
Black as night, where the coral snake will strike.
But I found, well I found, you at the fall,
And it didnt mean, nothin at all.

...

Yesterday i got a letter,
From my friend writing in Iraq.
And this is what he had to say:
'Tell all my friends,
I'll be coming home soon,
My time will be up sometime in June,' oh oh

'Don't forget me,' he said,
'My sweet Lindsay,
Her rich brown eyes,
As sweet as honey.'

And he is fighting in Iraq;
He is fighting in Iraq;
He is fighting in the Iraq War;
What for?

Well it was just a next day,
He's mother got a telegram'
It was Addressed from Iraq, oh oh.

Now Misses Brown, she lives in the US of A
And this is what she read it to say:

'Don't be alarmed, Misses Brown,
But your son is dead. Oh your son is dead.'

And he's fighting in Iraq.
He's fighting in Iraq; In the Iraq War.
He's fighting in Iraq; In the Iraq War.
War; Someone stop that war; Somebody stop that war.

Nothing worth reading here really. In fact, this introduction is longer than what I really want to tell you. It's a short quote that reaffirms why i love the Simpsons and why it will never die. IT WILL NEVER DIE.
