There's a moaning I hear when I try to sleep.
It's the sound of a drawn out tragedy
The result of centuries of neglect.
With no attention paid to cause and effect
And the pain gets worse and the screams ensue.
It's the world living with a parasite
It's the world living with it's own infectious disease.
Ruin is what you wanted
Ruin is what you get
Ruin is what you worked towards every single day.
The infestation reaches far beyond it's means.
The sapping of the strength has muffled all the screams.
Self centered beings play out self centered lives.
Indifferent creatures living in indifferent times
And the blame is passed round when the death throws sound
It's the world living with a parasite
It's the world living with it's own infectious disease.
Ruin is what you wanted
Ruin is what you get
Ruin is what you worked towards every single day.
Ruin is what you wanted
Ruin is what you get
Ruin is what you worked towards every single day.
Ruin
Ruin
Ruin
Ruin

This is the special edition lyrics ;)
 
you say that you'd rather be really poor
than scratching, saving, scrimping all the pennies
looking in the windows at what you can't afford
always hungry, never starving

in no man's land the days are long
in no man's land the days are long

you say that you'd rather be really ill
than just having headaches, never have no energy
all the little allergies and all the little pains
never getting better, never getting worse

in no man's land the days are long
in no man's land the days are long

you say that you'd rather have no love at all
than pathetic little words, half-hearted kisses
never feeling anything, anything at all
never no fire, never no passion

in no man's land the days are long
in no man's land the days are long

do you believe you can come out fighting from your shell-hole
or do you run for cover every time you hear a shot fired in anger?
 
Stranded
In a life in which your struggle for acceptance
Is a never-ending chore,
Upbraided
For your actions past and present and rewarded for the ideas
Of the future's bright open door.
The henchman
Is the human analogue of the suffering multitudes
Who like good dogs sit and lick for their reward.
So what good advice have I got for you
To insure against your likely metamorphosis into this reprobate?
Don't be a henchman,
Stand on your laurels,
Do what no one else does and praise the good of other men
For good man's sake.
And when everyone else in the world follows your lead
(Although a cold day in hell it will surely be)
That's when the entire world shall live in harmony.
 
I can't feel my bones, the blood has all dried up
I'm caught in between
I can't feel my bones, the blood has all dried up
I'm not even dead
 
@LtA: GREAT song. :D

@Tebus: welcome back. :)


broken dreams of unity
independent trajectories
screaming out for understanding
turning inwards and suffering
parallel
our lives are parallel
 
i fear that i am ordinary, just like everyone
to lie here and die among the sorrows
adrift among the days
for everything i ever said
and everything i've ever done is gone and dead
as all things must surely have to end
and great loves will one day have to part
i know that i am meant for this world
my life has been extraordinary
blessed and cursed and won
time heals but i'm forever broken
by and by the way...
have you ever heard the words
i'm singing in these song?
it's for the girl i've loved all along
can a taste of love be so wrong
as all things must surely have to end
and great loves will one day have to part
i know that i am meant for this world
and in my mind as i was floating
far above the clouds
some children laughed i'd fall for certain
for thinking that i'd last forever
but i knew exactly where i was
and i knew the meaning of it all
and i knew the the distance to the sun
and i knew the echo that is love
and i knew the secrets in your spires
and i knew the emptiness of youth
and i knew the solitude of heart
and i knew the murmurs of the soul
and the world is drawn into your hands
and the world is etched upon your heart
and the world so hard to understand
is world you can't live without
and i knew the silence of the world
 

What shall we say, shall we call it by a name
As well to count the angels dancing on a pin
Water bright as the sky from which it came
And the name is on the earth that takes it in
We will not speak but stand inside the rain
And listen to the thunder shout
I am, I am, I am, I am


Why dont they do music like this nowdays? I don´t usually like long songs, but with this 12 minutes go like stoned.
 

an undiscovered door leading to
the gift of hope renewed
eternity for you
the masses of humanity
have always had to suffer
 
When I’m lyin’ in my bed at night
I don’t wanna grow up
Nothin’ ever seems to turn out right
I don’t wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That’s always changing things
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I don’t wanna grow up
I don’t ever wanna be that way
I don’t wanna grow up

Seems like folks turn into things
That they’d never want
The only thing to live for
Is today...
I’m gonna put a hole in my tv set
I don’t wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don’t wanna grow up
I don’t wanna have to shout it out
I don’t want my hair to fall out
I don’t wanna be filled with doubt
I don’t wanna be a good boy scout
I don’t wanna have to learn to count
I don’t wanna have the biggest amount
I don’t wanna grow up

Well when I see my parents fight
I don’t wanna grow up
They all go out and drinking all night
And I don’t wanna grow up
I’d rather stay here in my room
Nothin’ out there but sad and gloom
I don’t wanna live in a big old tomb
On grand street

When I see the 5 o’clock news
I don’t wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I don’t wanna grow up
Stay around in my old hometown
I don’t wanna put no money down
I don’t wanna get me a big old loan
Work them fingers to the bone
I don’t wanna float a broom
Fall in love and get married then boom
How the hell did I get here so soon
I don’t wanna grow up
 
holy s**t, but "The New Build" and "Through Smudged Lenses" are two friggin great songs to open an album! I love Anders' use of blast beasts in TNB! I haven't been so excited for a new DT album since "The Mind's I"

i'm in love with this band. PERFECT lyrics, always.
They have good lyrics, but most of the time I can't listen to Porcupine Tree because they start sounding so emo to me...just a bit too much of *whine* to listen to them a lot. Certainly work in some moods, and songs like The Sound Of Muzak and Heartattack In A Lay By always sound good. So Low is nice.
I think that Stop Swimming is a better closer, though.
