Close Your Eyes

To say it once again may make it seem
that all we had was nothing but a dream
Please say that it's all over, help me perceive
That all it ever was was makebelieve

Dream, Close your eyes and dream girl
Dream, Close your eyes and dream of how it used to feel
Was it ever really quite real

Dream, Close your eyes and dream girl
Dream, Close your eyes and dream of how it used to feel
Was it ever really quite real

i really like the lyrics concerning both sound and meaning, but damn are they somber!

An observation: Gullible's Travails is obviously about repentance and seeking forgiveness, and Starhammer is a sort of demigod that watches and catalogues people? But he doesn't judge, who does? Man this is one spaced out album lyrically. Also, X-3 is about getting into space (or just getting high), and stars and I guess Starhammers? Is this a concept album?

"but our mentor makes it hard to read the signs" - but our momentum makes it hard to read the signs

"I'll seek it" - Eye all seing

"once we trusted and ??? now we're masters and slaves" - once we trusted and gave, now we're masters and slaves (i think)

Part 2

"im so tight so old and frail" . im so tired so old and frail

"i know when to change and am not ever likely to" - i know when to change and will not ever likely do

--

Still a bunch of things that are hard to make out. But we'll get there!

Please say that it's all over, help me proceed(?) - help me perceive

One correction to Gullible's Travails:

What we once held so dear, now we're choking from fear

Starhammer

It's been a long time now since i've seen the sun rise high to greet a blue sky
Orbiting (stealthfully) i'm the starhammer unweakly keeping an eye
On the world as i fly on by......Watch me!

I'm just a watcher, i do not judge (cus i don't care) i'm just a slave
I am outside the (neverland) i observe, i watch, i store and i save

(What would you do) (....) star i won't colseal, (....) as they bend and kneel
Their backs were broken cruely upon the weel
(What would you do) If you could expose some lies, straighten backs and open eyes
would you (.....) assigned
(What woulod you do)

I am a Starhammer, i never judge but always keep the score
I am outside the (neverland) i observe, i watch, i save and i store
For ever more

--

Gonna need some help with this one too!

Let's compare them. I see we've got some different notes.

Ps; It's the Space opera remember

PPS: To me X3 can be somewhat of a wink towards Armstrong and the moon landing, or perhaps towards further exploration of space.

X3 is the optimisic one of these I guess:

"I'm gonna try I'm gonna try and make it matter, theres no excuses at the level we're at
We'll fly the flag and I know were representing humanity and democracy and all that"

Also, they're talking about flinging metal to the eye in the sky (Starhammer again), woop woop!

Man this is one great album

Where did GT go? I'll have to write it up again..

Ah yeah! It's a killer!

But lyrically, the hardest one still remains. Haven't dared to try to crack The Bom-proof roll and beyond yet

You know the drill people

Starhammer

It's been a long time now since I've seen the sun rise high to greet a blue sky
Orbiting stoutfully I'm the starhammer, I'm bleekly keeping an eye on the world as I fly on by

Watch me!

I'm just a watcher I do not judge or side or care, I'm just a slave
I am outside and ever will I observe, I watch, I store and I save

What would you do?
Mutant star, I wont conceal, the believers as they bend and kneel, their backs were broken cruelly upon the wheel
What would you do?
If you could expose some lies, straighten backs and open eyes would you cut the ??? down a size
What would you do?

I am a starhammer, I never judge but always keep the score
I am outside and ever will I observe, I watch, I save and I store, forevermore

X-3 (Knuckleheads in space) / The Getaway Special

I wanna go I wanna get up and go man, I need a lift off and I crave the sky
I've been chomping at the bit for several weeks now, I'm so ready I need to get high
My adrenaline's up beyond the scales man‚ you couldn't kill me cause I'd never feel a thing
I might seem like I'm ??? to you and thats cool and hear they're really singing

It's gonna feel so good
like we always knew it would
In this glorious pursuit
we're getting in our suits

Won't you fly us
past the bright shining stars
Won't you fly us
to the X-3 pulsar

There's nothing wrong there's nothing wrong with all this brute force flinging metal to the eye in the sky
Inertial forces mass bullet skywards fighting gravity's hold on nuclei
I'm gonna try I'm gonna try and make it matter, theres no excuses at the level we're at
We'll fly the flag and I know we're representing humanity and democracy and all that

But hey!

It's gonna feel so good
like we always knew it would
Cause in this glorious pursuit
we're getting in our suits

Won't you fly us
to the bright shining stars
Won't you fly us
past the moon and past Mars
Won't you fly us
Won't you fly us
Won't you fly us
to the X-3 pulsar

??? it's hotter than a pistol
A high energy ray gun in the swan
It's really true it's made of quarks man, I guess it's just not your standard
neutron that's at the core of this wonderful creation
A gas sucking binary star
Thirty seven thousand light years, man that's really way too far

Won't you fly us
past the bright shining stars
Won't you fly us
past the moon and past Mars
Won't you fly us
to the bright shining stars
Won't you fly us
past the moon and past Mars
Won't you fly us
past the bright shining stars
Won't you fly us
to the X-3 pulsar
Won't you fly us
Won't you fly us
Won't you fly us
Won't you fly us

The Bomb-Proof Roll and Beyond (For Arnie Hassle)

Snah:
Round and round and round we go
always slightly faster
Round and round and round we go
never catching up

Bent:
Terminal velocity team up with the void
Come on and take my hand, come on and take my hand
Lets freefall endlessly one with the void
as we go tumbling down, the strings that bind us come undone

Both:
Will you drown in the strange brew meltdown
or break on through
Break on through

------------------------------------

Close your eyes

To say it once again may make it seem
that all we had was nothing but a dream
Please say that it's all over, help me perceive
that all it ever was, was make believe

Dream, close your eyes and dream girl
Dream, close your eyes and dream of how it used to feel
Was it ever really quite real

Dream, close your eyes and dream girl
Dream, close your eyes and dream of how it used to feel
Was it ever really quite real

-------------------------------------

W.B.A.T.

Seven seasons bloom out in june and july
Several reasons I feel like I'm shit when you lie

That's right!

Sister, sister, I've never felt so burned out
Sister, sister, what's left when the fire has gone out

Seems it only served to magnify the pain and doubt

Stuck in stalemate with steadfast refusal to show
how much it's hurting to not have a clue, but to know
just how painful it is to let go

When we close our eyes at night, it feels so right, we lived another day
In dreams we dive into the light, postpone the fight and it kind of feels okay
to float along, somehow belong, to not be right or wrong

All unspoken we're keeping it civil and kind
Nothing's broken if nobody speaks their mind

When we close our eyes at night
In dreams we dive into the light

When we close our eyes at night
It feels so right, we lived another day

In dreams we dive into the light, postpone the fight and it kind of feels okay
to float along, somehow belong, to not be right or wrong

------------------------------------

Gullible's Travails (Part I-IV)

Part I: Eye all-seeing
Call it fear, call it hope disguised as anger
perculating through the fabric of mankind
It's a mood, it's a vibe that's overwhelming
but our momentum makes it hard to read the signs

I pray for pardon, Eye All-seeing

We maintain, grab a hold and ride the tiger
gripping and just hanging on for dear life
Proud and confused we get lost in the detail
all but forgetting the reasons for the strife

I pray for pardon, Eye All-seeing

Round and round, it's the old familiar story;
tired eyes that never clearly see
I guess we'll always be
striving to be let loose and set free

Once we all got along, shared the food and the songs about us
to a common belief held by both moguls and thieves
Once we trusted and gave, now we're masters and slaves
And what we once held so dear now we're choking for fear

Part II: The Elementhaler
Here I am, I am your friend, won't you take my hand
Don't you want to try again, don't you understand

I'm so tired, so old and frail
I could never do what you all seem to want me to
I'm so stuck, set in my ways
I've no will to change, and will not ever likely do

I have fought for way too long
Now the fight's all gone, I badly need to sleep, my friend
We have done the best we could
and our walls withstood, but now I can see the end

I give up, my time has ended, all I want's to let go
And so, leave it be so it may start/stop to grow

Part III: Circle
N/A

Part IV: Phoot's Phlower (a burly return)
So maintain, grab a hold and find a fire
grinning idiots floating dull and hypnotized

Let it grow and let it flow, let it breathe and give it love!

--------------------------------------

I.C.U. (Boinganoid)

Seeking solace, refuge from the storm
Seeking shelter from the norm

Finding anger, finding pain
Finding nothing's ever gained

There's no real difference 'tween liable and true
It's all relative to your point of view, but I see you
I see you
I see you

Be a stoic
Be a dream
Be the diamond in the sea

Catch the fever
Catch the sky
Catch the wind if you try

I see you
I see you
I see you
I see you

Starhammer

"I'll meekly keep an eye on the world as I fly on by" - i think it's "I'm meekly keeping an eye on the world as I fly on by

also

"I am outside I never ??? world that I observe I watch I survey I see" i hear "I am outside and never In, I observe I watch I store and I save" (in the last lines it's "I save and i store, so it kind of makes sense)

W.B.A.T

"??? the fight and it kind of feels okay" - can it be "porsponed the fight and it kind of feels okay"?

and..

"Stuck in ??? refusal to show" can be "Stuck in stalemate with stand fast refusal to show"

and the last line..

"to float along somehow ??? to not be right or wrong" - to float along, somehow belong, to not be right or wrong

GT Part 3

"So we did grab a hold and find a fire" - i hear "Soul maintained, grab a hold and find a fire

(Second line)

Can it be" Grinning idiots floating dull and hypnotized"?

What do you think?

Also, add Close Your eyes to the songs you've posted. We're almost home

I think you're right about those, GBD. Great job

Added your changes and Close Your Eyes. Now, if someone with superhuman hearing could do Bomb proof, we're done!

Also, could someone put the huge lyric post on top? Vegard?

It's "chomping at the bit".

"So maintain" sounds more correct indeed man! By the way you forgot to add the updated W.B.A.T chorus at the end

Also, i've been checking out TBPRAB, and i think that the entire lyric can be found within the vocal maze at the end. But it's still close to impossible to separate the words. That one's gonna be a tough one!

Posted 7 months ago #

GBD: Yeah, I think it's "so", because the last part is sort of a (oppfordring, in norwegian).. Suggestion, telling you what to do or something. Fixed WBAT chorus now.

I've been listening to TBPRAB too, and the only thing I can get is the round and round-part, that's no problem, but the spaced out backupstuff is impossible

Posted 7 months ago #

Ok, TBPRAB notes:

Round and round and round we go
always slightly faster
Round and round and round we go
never catching up

Take the ???, team on with the void
Come on and take my hand, come on and take my hand
Lets freefall endlessly one with the void
as we go tumbling down the strings that bind us come undone

Will you drown in the strange brew meltdown
or break on through
Break on through

OK, at the very end of GT, are you sure it's "give it love"? I hear "give it light"...

Hovmod: No, I'm not sure at all, but it sure does sound like love. And love rhymes better with grow/flow than does light

Some interesting links:

Starhammer
(Not sure that this has any correlation to the song, except for the name.. Haven't read the book.)

X-3
The Douglas X-3 Stiletto was a 1950s United States experimental jet aircraft with a slender fuselage and a long tapered nose, manufactured by the Douglas Aircraft Company.

The Bombproof Roll
Apparently, this is a rolling technique for canoeing..?

Travail
travail (plural travaux)
- arduous or painful labor
- work; labor (US), labour (British)
- labor of childbirth
- Tribulation or agony; anguish.

Ride the Tiger"Evola believes that the modern world has become totally corrupt and that the institutions and traditions of the ancient world that once allowed a person to fully realize his being have been lost."

I guess both Ride the Tiger, Travail and The Bomb-proof Roll are related to pure surviving.. Which seems to be a theme, I guess, surviving in the modern world, unable to see/grasp the big picture, and just keeping your head down, going from day to day. Never being able to really thrive as a human being?

----------------------------

Edit: (I'm not serious about this one)
And, if we want to take this into conspiracy-land, what with the All-seeing Starhammer and world out of control thing:

WBAT
WBAT - World Bank Administrative Tribunal
Woop de do, New World Order, Zeitgeist, Freemasonry.. Yeah. But no, WBAT probably is something entirely different.

> Some interesting links:
nice stuff.

random thought: apart from the obvious Gulliver's Travels, Gullible's Travails is almost literally what Bent said about the new album sometime ago: an excercise in bluntness (or something like that).

RvL: Yeah. Also, to be gullible = to be easily fooled/manipulated/controlled.. So, "the hardships of the easily controlled".. Smells conspiracy theory a long way.

This thread just reeks "FANBOYS!" though
