here's another one from linkin park about the blood...i love this song... Yeah here we go for the hundredth time Hand grenade pins in every line Throw 'em up and let something shine Going out of my fucking mind Filthy mouth, no excuse Find a new place to hang this noose String me up from atop these roofs Knot it tight so i won't get loose Truth is you can stop and stare Run myself out and no one cares Dug the trench out laid down there With a shovel up out of reach somewhere Yeah, someone pour it in Make it a dirt dance floor again Say your prayers and stomp it out When they bring that chorus in I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away Just to throw it away Just to throw it away I bleed it out Go stop the show Choppy words and a sloppy flow Shotgun opera lock and load Cock it back and then watch it go Mama help me I've been cursed Death is rolling in every verse Candy paint on his brand new hearse Can't contain him he knows he works Fuck this hurts, I won't lie Doesn't matter how hard I try Half the words don't mean a thing And I know that I wont be satisfied So why try ignoring him Make it a dirt dance floor again Say your prayers and stomp it out When they bring that chorus in I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away Just to throw it away Just to throw it away I bleed it out I've opened up these scars I'll make you face this I've pulled myself so far I'll make you, face, this, now!!!! I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away Just to throw it away Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away I bleed it out digging deeper Just to throw it away Just to throw it away Just to throw it away I bleed it out I bleed it out I bleed it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnuuYcqhzCE&feature=channel
Lori thats probably my nephews favorite song and he is an athiest. Could you give a synopsis for it. Tell us what it meana to you. Very strange video i must say. I mean the stuff going on in the audiance. Will have to watch that video a few more times. Here is a special song that always brings an up welling of emotions within me, tears and joy and hope, too powerful to adequately express through words. I wish i had written this song. If i had then i would not have changed one word. If i had a chance to sing a song to God it would be this one. Anne Murry You needed me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrOdxw5CHX8 I cried a tear, You wiped it dry I was confused, You cleared my mind I sold my soul, You bought it back for me And held me up and gave me dignity Somehow You needed me You gave me strength to stand alone again To face the world out on my own again You put me high upon a pedestal So high that I could almost see eternity You needed me, You needed me And I can't believe it's You I can't believe it's true I needed You and You were there And I'll never leave, why should I leave? I'd be a fool 'cause I finally found Someone who really cares You held my hand when it was cold When I was lost You took me home You gave me hope when I was at the end And turned my lies back into truth again You even called me "friend" You gave me strength to stand alone again To face the world out on my own again You put me high upon a pedestal So high that I could almost see eternity You needed me, You needed me You needed me, You needed me All Praise The Ancient Of Days
in the video, it looks to me like the audience is participating in acts of violence, but in reverse. and the lyrics... the chorus, again with the blood, and it reminds me of what christ does with me. we dig down deep, dig up all the yucky stuff, look at it..."face it" as it says in the bridge...and then get rid of it. the shining hand grenades in every line, and the shotgun opera signifies an impactive message. going out of his mind, filthy mouth/no excuse...duality (see slipknot). find a new place to hang this noose, i hear immortality. i think that's the message. there's a lot of references to the death of the flesh... laying in a dirt trench being cursed death rolling new paint on a hearse it hurts (it does hurt) i love the bridge. i love it. i feel the exact same way towards people. i want to make them face it now. which involves saying your prayers and stomping it out. we'll make life fun again.
this is the way i pray...with disturbed... Another dream that will never come true Just to compliment your sorrow Another life that I've taken from you A gift to add on to your pain and suffering Another truth you can never believe Has crippled you completely All the cries you're beginning to hear Trapped in your mind, and the sound is deafening Let me enlighten you This is the way I pray [Chorus:] Living just isn't hard enough Burn me alive, inside Living my life's not hard enough Take everything away Another nightmare about to come true Will manifest tomorrow Another love that I've taken from you Lost in time, on the edge of suffering Another taste of the evil I breed Will level you completely Bring to life everything that you fear Live in the dark, and the world is threatening Let me enlighten you This is the way i pray [Chorus] Return to me, return to me, return to me, turn to me, leave me no one Turn to me, return to me, return to me, turn to me, cast aside Return to me, return to me, return to me, turn to me, leave me no one Turn to me, return to me, return to me, you've made me turn away [Chorus Variant:] Living just isn't hard enough Burn me alive, inside Living my life's not hard enough, They take everything from you [Chorus] i think that song is a big "fuck you" to satan. the video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnykIpoPrrA&ob=av2n i remember watching something on the making of that video, and the singer compared it to the book of job.
I love religious music, just not all religious music and generally only Islamic religious music but I do like and can appreciate some others.
Ok having watch the video a few times i see it as representing an struggle between the Holy Spirit and the people as the Holy Spirit is working on then they struggle against it. You will see in the video people taking in water vomiting it up as they both want the Waters of eternal life and both spew it up because it hurts them when the Water confronts what is inside them. But the struggle continues and none of them gives up. Also these lines in the song talk of the Holy Spirit. Candy paint on his brand new hearse Can't contain Him He knows He works Fuck this hurts, I won't lie Doesn't matter how hard I try Half the words don't mean a thing And I know that I wont be satisfied So why try ignoring Him A lot of people struggle with the Holy Spirit, they want the Holy Spirit so desperately but the convictions that come from the Holy Spirit hurt. But it is a hurt that cleans one out. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
Ok watch it for the first time. It definitely has end times imagery to it. The fire in the sky (meteor impact?) followed by a earthquake just as in the scriptures. The guy starts out walking down the street with evil and broken souls on all sides. Just as the world is now. I am not sure about the lyrics though. They could be interpreted in two different ways. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
i see the verses as describing the world (shown in the video). in the bridge, god is saying "return to me', 'cast aside this world', which ironically is more difficult than accepting it. don't you think? that chorus... Living just isn't hard enough Burn me alive, inside Living my life's not hard enough Take everything away i can relate to that. i've always been bored with this world. not satisfied. not fulfilled. and it made me turn away. god has tested me in a lot of ways...in this way. since the spirit and the flesh oppose one another, turning away from the flesh, and from the world, can be quite uncomfortable...like i'm burning alive (like in the black light burns song "lie"). he's saying "burn me alive", as if the burning is bringing him to life, and it does...spiritually. the world is death. the flesh is death. god gave me an analogy one time about this. i felt very broken, and i was listening to some song lyrics where a man was saying he saved the pieces of his broken heart and ground them to dust. and god said that he would take that dust, put it through a fire, apply pressure, and over time, it would come out a flawless, multi-faceted, indestructible, and brilliant diamond.
i love bluegrass too. can't stand most country music, but i love bluegrass. it's so raw and unusual sounding. ps...i'm not dumb. :bugeye:
WOWWW, i was searching through Utube for music from Tommy Emanuel and i came across this Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! looks like someone else has been getting the same message from this song as i did. Tommy Emanuel ,,jokes,message,you needed me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaFlRVUsSvk All Praise The Ancient Of Days
that's really beautiful and poignant. i feel that way about god too. but, i've spent a lot of time yelling at him. i'm just so dissatisfied with the world and the perspective he's given me has done nothing but intensify that. for a while, to the point where i was just sick with anger and frustration. since i feel as though he's given me this perspective for a good reason, and since i know he's the answer, i tend to be very emphatic and demanding towards him. he says, "at least you're yelling at me." but i'm glad there are people out there expressing some more positive sentiment.
Being dissatisfied by the world is not a bad thing Lori. In fact it is how one should feel if they have come to the knowledge of the truth. This world falls far short of the Love of His truth. I hate the world as it is now and long for they way it shall be in the future when Jesus will make it right again by taking away the hurt and suffering we have done. 1 John 2 15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. In times of depression caused by the sadness of seeing the world as it is, It is good to focus on the firm hope (more than Hope indeed heart felt certainty) that all this suffering will be turned into joy and all this turmoil will be turned into perfect peace. If He is with us nothing and no one can pull us down. No one will subvert Him, Nothing can overcome the Love He has for us. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

here are two of my favorite songs from incubus. i dedicate these to jesus. i always think of him when i hear them... "i wish you were here"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8295rOMvtQI&feature=channel "stellar"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nqRkAsZumc&feature=related
I do not like most Christian music, because up until now I thought it was all pop and boring. The music didn't touch me. Even the music I sing in the Worship Group. Most of that is popular Christian music. Christian Metal reaches to me. I love Flyleaf. It is an Alternative-Metal Christian band. On the new album, Momento Mori, I have found that the song Tiny Heart relates to me. It reaches to me. Maybe it will reach to you. Tiny Heart Tiny Heart, stuck inside yourself When will you open up for me? I love you so, I wanna meet you again Before one of us must go. Your lips touched every hand but mine If you choose me, I'm waiting for you If you choose me, I'm waiting for you Always waiting Tiny heart, you're not by yourself When will you recognize the beat Of my own heart, grieving in your hand? You crush me when you run that way. Your lips touched every hand but mine If you choose me, I'm waiting for you If you choose me, I'm waiting for you Always waiting You will never know what you have done to me And you will never know losing love for me And you will never know a single day alone. Tiny heart, stuck inside yourself When will you open up? Your lips touched every hand but mine If you choose me, I'm waiting for you If you choose me, I'm waiting for you Always waiting
Both are blocked in my country because of copyright issues because of Vevo. So i cannot view them sadly All Praise The Ancient Of Days
