No direction or focus? The lyrics are clearly about being controlled and used, with the implied theme that it's got to stop.
Saying they're the most awful lyrics you've ever seen is just untrue. EDIT: Basically, I know that they're simple. They aren't abstract in the least. THAT'S WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THEM!

Kraftwerk - The Hall of Mirrors
The young man stepped into the hall of mirrors Where he discovered a reflection of himself Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass Sometimes he saw his real face And sometimes a stranger at his place Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass He fell in love with the image of himself and suddenly the picture was distorted Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass He made up the person he wanted to be And changed into a new personality Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass The artist is living in the mirror With the echoes of himself Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Other Favorites: Radiohead - 2 + 2 = 5, Exit Music Neutral Milk Hotel - Two Headed Boy Pt. 2 GY!BE - The Dead Flag Blues

That's only half the song, but I don't think the second half is quite as absorbing. TV on the Radio are in general, brilliant lyricists. |

By the way, is your avatar something to do with that Mars Volta album where there driving cars with red bags over their heads. I work with a guy who had that particular album once & I took the piss out of him although he says I would actually like them if I listened to them...

"She's got these brand new friends I got a few new songs Mostly new headaches And reasons not to call" A Skylit Drive - Eva The Carrier The scream this in a deep devilish scream during a somewhat of a breakdown. "Hey baby, I want you I want you. Hey baby, I want you I want you alive." Last edited by coryallen2; 05-21-2009 at 08:52 AM. |

These are only some of the lyrics from mr Neil Young which I think are excellent.
Theres a few different lines in the song which I really like so Ive just posted all the lyrics & highlighted the ones which I think stand out: Sorry about the ****ty fanboy video: couldnt find one with the original recording, still a great song though. Skip to 0.45. Long ago in the book of old, Before the chapter where dreams unfold A battle raged on the open page, Love was a winner there overcoming hate Like a little girl who couldn't wait. Love and only love will endure Hate is everything you think it is Love and only love will break it down Love and only love, will break it down Break it down, break it down. Tomorrow is a long long time if you're a memory Trying to find peace of mind Spirit come back to me, Give me strength and set me free Let me hear the magic in my heart. Love and only love will endure Hate is everything you think it is Love and only love will break it down Love and only love, will break it down Break it down, break it down. Long ago in the book of old, Before the chapter where dreams unfold A battle raged on the open page, Love was a winner there overcoming hate Like a little girl who couldn't wait. Love and only love will endure Hate is everything you think it is Love and only love will break it down Love and only love.
