thanks!

I'm not sure I've got it all right:

I'm in a state of shock
I'm creeping up and down yr block
I'm looking into you
I'm trying to catch yr view

It's not a quiet meditation
Oh that you know
Darkness makes the nightmare cold
That's what we know about me

Satisfied wise child
creeping heart and frozen perfection
you can touch my hair
I'll drink the taste of you

heaven's not about true reputation
yeah that I know
forever means the night turns gold
that's what we know about you

It's been quite a ride
you my sweet here by my side
funny how the mountains slide
we step across the great divide
our bodies vibrate slowly
yeah that we know
bound to give it heart and soul
that's what we know about us

I'm not quite sure on these, but I'll give it a shot.

Thunderclap for Bobby Pyn:

You did not fade from noise meditation
You stopped abruptly while spinning down
this is not to depict hesitation
a silent gesture for princess's pleasure

I'll see what heaven sent
straight from heaven's gate
I'll see what heaven meant
?? and embrace his hate

lots of dreams of vicious actions
plastic stomachs wrapped in steel
hair falls in a deadbeat's curtain
trash can, canterbury, hollywood boulevard

awe you can count on it
to have your hair?? tacked to the wall
under the plunger pit
love with nothing at all

our beards?? are circuits to amplifier
all our bells have an elite ring
rapacious gardens of female distinction
can you smell trouble, libraries of rubble

I don't want to know
who gets highest score
that's when my poodle pukes??
on the gallery floor

You did not fade from noise meditation
You stopped abruptly while spinning down
hair falls in a deadbeat's curtain
a silent gesture for princess's pleasure

here comes mary wrath??
trudie?? tacked to the wall
take me back to disgraceland
love nothing at all

It's close.

Three lines I think might be different:
Darkness makes the night more cold
I'll drink a case of you
Heaven's not about yr reputation

Either way, close.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 04.29.2009, 07:23 PM

Watching the Jools Holland video, I'm thinking perhaps it is "touch my hand" instead of "touch my hair" and "darkness makes the night more cold" on that video it also sounds like "I'll drink a case of you"

canabero · 04.29.2009, 08:16 PM

yeah, this is my fav. song from The Eternal.

nancykitten · 04.30.2009, 01:29 AM

Yes, I think it's like "I'll drink a case of you", ala Joni Mitchell.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 05.05.2009, 12:42 AM

It probably is then. I never heard that before, so it didn't make sense to me.

scott v · 05.05.2009, 10:48 AM

some of thurston's guitar parts in this song sound alot like a Polvo guitar chord or riff... I like it!

Im in a state of shock,
Im creeping up and down your block
I’m looking into you
I’m trying to catch your view

It’s not a quiet meditation,
Oh, that you know
Darkness makes the night more cold
That’s what we know
About me

Satisfied wise child
Creeping hard and frozen perfection
You can touch my hand
Ill drink a case of you

Heaven’s not about your reputation

Yeah that I know:
Forever means the night turns gold
That’s what we know about you

Its been quite a ride
With you my sweet here by my side
Funny how the mountains slide
We steppin across the great divide

Our bodies vibrate so slowly

Yeah that we know:
Bound together heart and soul
That’s what we know
About us

(just a couple of minor modifications to the incredible awestruck words)
