do these not seem insanely wrong in some parts to anyone else?

12. Slippin' Away

Feel every things circumstantial
Realise the nonsense of existing
Start to put to an end to this lost life
There ain't no change for the better

So I'll choose it from death
Memories been bless this one day
Take the tears and the pain
My soul I sold to prolong.

Don't tell me / I'm dying

Tired of / Bury the pain
As I bury this knife in my body
Slowly Slipping Away
To another dimension of virtue

My soul now slipping away in vain
A man greets me from the other side
"Welcome To Hell"
"Me? My name's Death"
So please forgive this heart
And these dreams that we've felt

Don't tell me

Bury the pain
As I bury this knife in my body
Slowly Slipping Away
To another dimension of virtue



I mean, even little things, like I'm sure at the end of the hook there's no "of virtue" and that sound is just the echo of "dimention"


and even the first line,
Feel every things circumstantial
I just don't hear that no matter how hard I try, does anyone else?

before I'd seen the lyrics it had always sounded like
"filled with anguish and confusion"

am I crazy?
 
yes they do
I had never seen those lyrics... and yeah I agree with you on the first line. I think he does say anguish and confusion, and I never thought the virtue thing sounded right.
 
I sure as hell don`t hear any "circumstantial" in the first line!

About the "of virtue"-part.

He does indeed sing that,put it`s very faded after the (don`t know how to put it) main voice is finished singing "dimension".

Why the hell are the lyrics on this songs so distorted?
I have never thought about it before now.
 
hey, just ressurecting this old thread as I was working on these a little the other day

darklyrics.com:
Feel every things circumstantial
Realise the nonsense of existing

There ain't no change for the better

me:
Filled with anguish and confusion.
Realise the nonsense of existin'.
Stuck... to a meaningless life
and no change would matter.

Take the tears and the pain
My soul I sold to prolong.

me:
??Send a kiss from jail??
can this a dream bless me now?
to undo the pain
my soul ??????????



darklyrics.com:
Don't tell me
Bury the pain
As I bury this knife in my body
Slowly Slipping Away
To another dimension of virtue

me:
Don't tell me 'bury the pain'
As I bury the knife in my body.
Slowly slipping away
To another dimension.



darklyrics.com:
My soul now slipping away in vain
A man greets me from the other side

me:
My soul is (??drifting??) away in vain. (??lifting??)
A man greets me on the other side.





anyone else disagree or confirm any of my lines? I'm pretty sure at least the ones in bold are right


sounds like it's a concept track about a dude with life imprisonment killing himself and going to hell, but I'm not really sure n still can't piece together much more from that
 
Sure "...to another dimensions". There is no doubt.
I have already mentioned in some thread that darklyrics.com sometimes gives wrong lyrics. You know, simple people like we listent to bands they like and after they send lyrics. So, no one checks it, that's why usually mistakes can be found.
Believe yourself: what you see and what you hear.
 
me:
Filled with anguish and confusion.
Realised the nonsense of existin'.
Stuck... into a meaningless life
and no change would matter.
instead of "would matter" i hear something like "for better". don't know if this makes any sense :)

me:
??Send a kiss from jail??
can this a dream bless me now?
to undo the pain
my soul ??????????

sounds okay


me:
Don't tell me 'bury the pain'
As I bury the knife in my body.
Slowly slipping away
To another dimension of virtue.

forgot something, rest is good

me:
My soul is drifting away in vain.
A man greets me on the other side.

ok.

Maybe he sings "... to another dimensio-a-a-n"?

yea, I'm really sure about this. I've tried everything to check, and I'm sure it's the 'mensio' part of 'dimention' echoed that sounds sorta like 'virtue'
 
hey, i never said peter sings that virtue part.
i thing it's more like this:

there's some sort of choir in the background(sounds like one or two men).
they echo the first two lines while peters sings 'em.
then, in the third line, peter sings dimensi-a-a-an while the choir sings that virtue thingy.

what do you think of this idea? that's how i understand in this part.
 
What a fuck? It's only a play of echos while singing one word -- "dimension"! And everyone perceives it on his hand.
That's all, I think... lol
 
you already said that, how many times to you want to repeat this? maybe record it and load it up at yousendit.com
so everybody can enjoy whenever he wants.

this is really making me sick.



thanks for reminding why i stayed away from this board.

am I crazy?
I perfectly hear "Of virtue" and "Circumstantial"...
 
na lol realy funny i dont hear virtue at all and most of the exaples sound poor and nothing like it
 
well Seditious and I pretty much mapped out most of the lyrics for Virus before it came out pretty damn well and I've listened to this song many times. It sounds like it is two tracks of Peter singing in some parts but with heavy delay/reverb on them... plus one track is set way back in the mix that throws shit off. Anyway...

I definitely hear anguish and confusion... no circumstantial whatsoever. from the way words are spoken I don't pick up on the stresses that circumstantial has but do hear anguish/confusion.
But I do think I hear and no change for the better

first line sounds something right but something's still still off. can this dream bless me now is right. and the last line I think I'm hearing my soul will suffer

Definitely no virtue at the end... it's echoing from the first vocal track and then being mixed between the echoing of the second vocal track... I'm sure of that.

yeah pretty sure it's drifting.

That's my take...
