I used to wake up every day to this song, well listening to it while driving to work, for a year. Gave me a lot of strength. Also I was drinking hard, "Cause when we're drinking we can never be filled". God, this man helped me get ahold of myself, being proud, active, angry, in a good way. As to fight the stupid people, don't let anyone put you under. Michael gira, what an inspiration.
Thank you, Man. I was driving to a factory early every morning. Jamming this tune. I'm a little late responding. I never post on RU-vid. But your comment hit me.
Now some of us are weak, and some endure Some people live their lives with a violence that's pure and clean But I saw man cry once, down on his knees In a corner of a darkened cell, and his pain meant nothing to me But I was younger then Young men never die And I walked out in the sun I was strong, clear-minded and blind Now don't say a prayer for anyone It doesn't do any good Please don't ask me a question It'd just be misunderstood And if you could step inside me you'd feel what hatred brings And if you saw with my eyes you'd see what self-deception means I was younger once and I created a lie And though my body was strong I was self-deluded, confident and blind Now show some pity for the weak of will Because when we're drinking we can never be filled Show some understanding for the lonely fool Because when I am drinking I am out of control I was never young Nothing has transpired And when I look in the mirror I feel dead, I feel cold I am blind I am blind I am blind I am blind you'r welcome :D
Loved this one ever since discovering Swans, These days I find myself listening to it every day, experiencing the worst moments of my life A good audio representation of that. Thank you, M.
I love you Michael as well & your music will travel in my soul for the rest of my days & into the afterlife. I have known you throughout many lifetimes. Blessings
written by Michael for Nilsson true story. we were watching our bobbers before the tug wake came in just before sunset. ok, aside, "when i'm drinking, i am Out of control" is a line worthy of sending on Voyager '77
lyric: Now some of us are weak And some endure And some people live their life With a violence that’s pure and clean But I saw a man cry once Down on his knees In the corner of a darkened cell And his pain meant nothing to me But I was younger then And young men never die When I walked out in the sun I was strong, clear-minded and blind Now don’t say a prayer for anyone It doesn’t do any good Please don’t ask me a question You'll just be misunderstood And if you could step inside me You'd feel what hatred brings And if you saw with my eyes You'd see what self-deception means You might also like Why I Ate My Wife Michael Gira Screen Shot Swans Peaches Jack Black I was younger once And I created a lie And though my body was strong I was self-deluded, confident and blind Now show some pity For the weak of will Because when we’re drinking We can never be filled Show some understanding For the lonely fool Because when I’m drinking I am out of control I was never young Nothing has transpired But when I look in the mirror I feel dead, I feel cold, I am blind I am blind, mmm I am blind, mmm I am blind, mmm Mmm
