Weird Lyrics

[scorpio01169]

those of you familiar with Soilwork...on the song "wherever thorns may grow"
in the chorus are they saying?

Better take a look inside
will you ever realize
the greatest airport ever known ?????

 

[smy1]

Makes total sense to me.

Airport could mean:

1) place to go to other destinations
2) place to arrive
3) link to far away places/things/mindsets
4) a place to start a journey
5) a place to arrive again
6) etc. etc.

I don't know the song, but it's not a bad metaphor at all and I interpret it as him saying that inside of yourself is a great opportunity to reach out and discover new things. This could be in contrast with something he writes about earlier in the song ...

And after I wrote all this, I simply typed in "soilwork wherever thorns may grow lyrics" into google and found:

http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric....ics-Soilwork/3892C2EA1B7AF18348256FC8000DCAC7

He sings "the biggest EFFORT ..."

And now I feel like an idiot for all this interpretative bullshit ...

[Youpimatin]

Hell yeah, Google is your friend

lmfao

Nah, if he were actually saying "airport" it would indeed be a horrible metaphor. Being explicable isn't synonymous with being good.
This thread does however remind me of a friend of mind thinking the first line of Meshuggah's Beneath was "It's time to go into the meat pillow."

Egan: compared to the "shadows of darkness deep inside the void" or "burning misery, flames of pain" kinda lyrics that populate 99% of all metal, I really think that an airport inside is rather cool ...

how about scar symmetry's Ghost Prototype I...at 1:10 it sounds like he's saying " santa's got behind the wheel"

 

[Metaltastic]

Oh man, nothing will ever beat my discover of Vintersorg's misheard lyric "the concept of these arcane pergaments" (which he says sounding exactly like "the context of these, ARRR, cheeseburger madness," and it's freakin' hysterical ) - 1:53 in the song below (and it's a damn good song IMO)

 

[Mancha]

Honestly, after hearing the Wishmaster misheard lyrics, that song was never the same for me



Even now when I was typing it in the youtube search, I typed "Wishamster"

Check out the lyrics for "Possessions" from Strapping Young Lad... Always cracks me up.

Vacation, procreation, sterilization, Disneyland!
