I think of the working class, working poor, oppression and marginalization when I listen to this song. No one understanding the soul of the person and the person being an outcast. This is why I love this song.
Wordless. Stunned. This guy is a melancholic genius. Nuff said, let's dumb this down: If you are sad/pensive/disagree/suffer from pains/world pain. Listen to this and feel enlightened or... thrashed under it.
@MrMarmeladeSky Such truth in your post. I always revisit this album, and specifically this song when I'm depressed. I'm not often that way, but it rings with such understanding of my sadness that it makes it all to easy to own my sadness and not be at it's mercy as much. All in a song =)
So true... my advice to everyone and anyone who will listen is to take your TV to a field of your choosing and blast it to pieces. Then pay attention to the things that really matter rather than who is winning Americas top model.
Haha no offense taken, I'm with you on tv though. I don't think it will ever die. I have like over 600 channels and not ever is there a thing worth watching.
out of the ruins blood grown heavy from his past his wings stripped by thunder but those storms keep coming back singing birds in sickness sing the same blues songs when they fell out of the emptiness they must have brought along space's loneliness space's loneliness gotten so good at hiding it even he does not admit it
that glittering flash in his eyes makes it look like he might be alright if the blues are you hunter then you will come face to face with that darkness and desolation and the endless depression but you are not helpless and you are not helpless try to beat it try to beat it and live through space's loneliness and live through space's loneliness you are not helpless you are not helpless i'll help you to try to beat it

Contrast this high level, high talent indie to our Top 40 or 99% of hip-hop, 100% of jam, 95% of country, 99% of metal...........

But it has a hopefully message at the end so it makes it even better :)

One really good reason not to slit your wrists would be that you would'nt miss out on the next Molina album. That's something worth living for.

Just for clarification I am not suggesting that you are a fan of TV. Just a general statement.
