3:21 INCORRECT LYRICS!!!! Damn my eyes, Damn my eyes, Damn my eyes if they should compromise our fulcrum wants and needs divide me if i might as well be gone...... LIKE SO PEOPLE CAN SEE CORRECT LYRICS
@Synyk2010 it could very well be, i think with Tool, it's left to interpretation, it's different for every person, so you just keep on believing what you want, maybe it's true maybe not, but that's music for ya, it's meant to be interpreted, so just use it for what you need man... we're all different, but it's great music that we can all come together and enjoy, so it's all good, keep enjoying it!
Suck and suck! Suckin up all you can suck, workin up under my patience like a little tick, fat little parasites. Suck! me dry. My blood is bruised and borrowed. you thieving bastards. you have turned my blood cold and bitter.Beat my compassion black and blue. Hope this is what you wanted. Hope this is what you had in mind. Cuz this is what you are getting!!!!!! I hope you choke on this.
i prey for your broken wing, theres a free mind out there like you, i see more than 1 god, i'v seen angels rise from the dead, i was part of the walking dead to see this crossover, only what hurts can be healed
this songs about making wishes. the name jambi is the name of a genie in an old tv show, he granted wishes. its obvious in the lyrics that he would trade everything for that person he cares about, his "home" his "center". the lyrics can be interpreted many ways but i think he's talking about his mother again and how he would trade all his fortunes to have her back
Don't you f&*king tell me the first time you heard Maynard sing this song you knew when and where he would articulate his vocal melody. The guy has his own pace and you didn't see it coming, and if you say so you are effing lying. The guy has the most incredible vocal melodies ever in music... period.
I love how everyone thinks that ']['(())(())[[_'s lyrics or the meaning of Maynard's songs are about an actual white bearded man with multiple split personality disorder, namely a spirit and a son. In all actuality it is simply a way of expressing his feelings for our true creators, for his true creators, for your true creators. Sumerians, Egyptians, and the Mayans plus many more have written into stone who is "GOD." If you wanna believe fables that's fine, but he doesn't.
what a fucking mathematical band. They are so many years ahead of all of us it isn't even funny. These guys are true geniuses. You all should read up on some of their philosophy, read it with an open mind, and it will blow your fucking mind.
Who gives a fuck about dislikes? Why does that shit bother anyone? Reverend Maynard would be displeased. How about the fact that this song is powerfully kicking your ass while making you think at the same time. It makes you listen AND feel. Makes you wanna thrash and throw your arms up and spin in a fucking circle while you are falling off the building you just jumped from. Damn imma go bang my chick.
it's definantly damn my eyes...c'mon do some homework before you make a lyric video....that kinda f's up the whole song and some of the meaning....nice epic fail looser!
@pepper19801 really it works either way. "dim my eyes" make me blind or make it all go away. fits the song and tool doesnt place high value on curse words instead relying on eloquent vocabulary and symbolism and you spelled loser wrong.
Weird. I like tool. I like perfect circle better.... but it is my firm opinion that if an artist writes a song and people argue about it's meaning or so many have no idea WTF your song is about, well, sorry to say but that artist has failed miserably. Just look at so many guesses at WTF the lyrics are suposed to mean. Ridiculous. Then there is that thing about how some cannot just enjoy a fucking song without ever doing an autopsy on it... continually. Maynard is brilliant but it's just music.
@REALITYCHURCH - I think you may have missed the message that Tool (and MJK) has tried to deliver in so many ways. I feel if people are discussing the possible meanings of the lyrics and not just accepting the obvious (or what the 1st person writes as their interpretation) then Tool has already won, definitely not failed. There is nothing wrong with a little healthy dialog. It's when people don't respect the thoughts and opinions of others, and remain closed minded, that we as a society fail.
I believe it's "damn my eyes" not "dim" and I'm sure it's "silence legion" not "silence leech." cool post though. Oh, and Jambi is also a reference to the character from "Pee Wee's Playhouse." I read an interview where Maynard, before the band gave the song a title, told the band members how the song reminded him of that show. Apparently, they agreed, but there's also the Arabic part to go along with it. ~~Think for yourself~~Question authority~~
It's actually.. "Prayed like a martyr" not father!!
And this song is about how he (Maynard) would trade all his riches and rock-star status to have his MOTHER back and how she saved him in the beginning from drowning in stardom..
@TheLucian1756 "And this song is about how he (Maynard) would trade all his riches and rock-star status to have his MOTHER back and how she saved him in the beginning from drowning in stardom.. " - Couldnt have said it better.
well i think the song is saying that every greedy person has one person that they would throw everything away for showing we all have good in us and peace is possible.
"Here from the king's mountain view
Here from the wild dream come true
Feast like a sultan I do on treasures and flesh - never few
But I, I would wish it all away if I thought I'd lose you, just one day"
greed will end when the greedy realize their greed is jeopardizing what matters most to all of us.. each other. thanks
maynard had a great point in an interview i was watching with him. he said "im only a fourth of this project if the lyrics were the only important thing i would be standing on an empty stage talking."
every song by tool is their best song ever xP all these dwabbers who think only certain songs are intensly magical...look at Tool as a whole and dwell in the transcendence that is part art part 'notha level thinking
Perhaps the lyrics are a tribute to Maynard's mother? He was succumbing to all of these drugs and other substances that were bringing him further away from her and when he finally lost her, he feels like he wasted his time with her still here; "If I could I'd wish it all away if I thought tomorrow would take you away." Of course, I could just be over-thinking, over-analyzing, and separating my body from my mind. :3
@PivotStudiosXE your whole LIFE is about infidelity. Your Great great great grandmother's infidelity bore your great great grandmother whose infidelity bore your great grandmother whose infidelity bore your grandmother who's infidelity bore your mother, who's infidelity- with me- bore you. Son.
@MrFlacid1 The word infidelity was invented because it took too long to describe your entire bloodline with "skanky-ass cheating whores who do nothing all day but suck dick and talk about their feelings". Chick-chicka yeah
@PivotStudiosXE Inventions were invented so that your family could invent the word infidelity to pin on my family to do whatever it took to take away attention from your family's infidelity.

@amon2525 ........Isn't all milk organic? WTF! Is there some government conspiracy that is replacing moo-moo milk with SYNTHETIC milK!? IM FUCKING SCARED MAN! IVE BEEN TAKING MESCALINE! Holy shit..... I FUCKING LOVE TOOL! GOD DAMMIT! FUCKING RIGHT MAN! Maynard James Keenan is GOD and Adam Jones, Danny Carrey, and Justin Chancellor are his fucking DISCIPLES! ALL HAIL TOOL!
@MakeupCigsSka this song is about the deal keenan made with the devil for his soul in exchange for rock stardom. I made that up. ok back to my regulation government brand cocopuffs.
Tool dis-likers are fucking terrorists! And most likely pretty stupid...such a shame, to be an asshole who likes terrible music. Cobain put it best though when he said "wish i was like you, easily amused." ...and pass the honey nut cheerios
@aidinharper--- um.. so just because they have a different taste in music they're terrorists and most likely stupid? not to be tooooo mean, but you're sounding a little unintelligent yourself. i don't like the color yellow, does that mean I'm racist? just try to be more open minded- be sure to stand up for something you like, but you don't have to downsize those who don't agree.. (sounds like how wars begin because people can't agree on religion..blah)
@Tenten1994 What my undiplomatic ally is trying to convey is that most people don't like Tool because they don't properly listen to it. Or any music for that matter, give a good, good listen to Rihannas latest song and you'll probably notice how repeatative and flat her music actually is. This goes for all mainstream music really.
@Tenten1994 Good point. Though people who start wars based on anything other than -- if you don't kill them then many others will die --- or something to that effect are flat out retarded. Not really the point of your comment but damn, I just felt like saying it.
@aidinharper What's a shame is that people these days still have the mind set of "If you don't believe what I believe, then fuck you". I would think that we've evolved past that. And on a Tool page too... wow
@aidinharper Easily amused. MTV should be renamed "Easily Amused" since they play disposable music. The masses suck up whatever MTV spits out and says is the 'new hawt jam', then a month later they're on to the next big thing. Nobody seems to have an appreciation for music that lasts. I'll continue to listen to these timeless songs and the ignorant masses can continue to be good little sheep.
fucking sickest band on the this fucking planet danny carry is the best drummer in the world by far i don't care what any one says!! and for the 10 people who dislike this song they must not have ears
Maynard is a genius. It's like if Plato or Socrates could sing and had their own band. But I bet they couldn't find a drummer like Danny though. What an amazing band.
to clarify all the BS on this page it is uncertain what beliefs or religion maynard believes in it is confirmed though that he disagress with organized religion
@jtimm13 And if you paid attention to the lyrics, hes speaking of the Benevolent Son. The Son is Jesus Christ and it has always remained that way. It is in-mistakable to say that this Son is someone else because no other person in history has ever been called the Son. Plus with the references to "shine on" and "Light our way" as well as "Shine on until the two become one" it only reaffirms it. What mortal shines on a person and heals them?
@Exorcio1 well put point, but likely false... APC - Judith "fuck your god, your lord and your christ, he did this. took all you had and left you this way" i doubt he would speak so highly of jesus, "benevolent son" when the majority of his work towards religion is negative.
@fenderman23 the only thing ive ever heard of him comeing closeing to haveing a posiive outlook on christianity and God is on the album 10,000 days but that was just because it was dedicated to her and he was honoring her beliefs
@Exorcio1 The song is about Maynard's kid. Stop trying to take that away from him....
For fuck sakes, if you go to the Sober video, one Jesus freak is going on about how Tool is so demonic, and this one is saying this song is all about Jesus.
Can you people just let the rest of the world enjoy music without you interfering every second?
I don't care if you have a religion, that's awesome, just shut up about it.
@nebjamin69 Well its about a loved one. That is for sure. I definitely dont think its about Jesus but for someone you love and will give everything so you dont lose that person.
people this is a tool song, it has multiple meanings. Yes, there are biblical references, they are used to develop his feelings towards his son, who is the subject of the song.
sorry for double posting but also this guy is saying "shine on forever shine on benevolent son. shine down upon the broken shine until the two become one. shine on upon the severed until the two become one. shine on upon the many, light our way, benevolent son." The Benevolent Son could well in fact be Jesus because 1. hes telling him to light our way which it says in the bible that Jesus is the light. 2. hes saying Legion get out of my way.and 3.a regular son or sun cant heal people broken ppl.
im pretty sure it says "Silence Legion, say your preachin, silence Legion, stay out of my way" Legion is what demons are called when they are assembled and before in the song he mentions the devil so there could be some correlation there.
5 weeks till i see tool live. running out of bands i must see before i die or they quit touring.of course since there arent any good bands now adays the list has been the same for 15 years.is it just meor are all the best bands now all from the early 90s.
2) u guys out there cursing each other for no reason just to look cool or whyever, please stop you r very annoying and I don't. Like listening to u guys. Please knok it off!!!!

Tool dis-likers are fucking terrorists! And most likely pretty stupid...such a shame, to be an asshole who likes terrible music. Cobain put it best though when he said "wish i was like you, easily amused." ...and pass the honey nut cheerios

@aidinharper--- um.. so just because they have a different taste in music they're terrorists and most likely stupid? not to be tooooo mean, but you're sounding a little unintelligent yourself. i don't like the color yellow, does that mean I'm racist? just try to be more open minded- be sure to stand up for something you like, but you don't have to downsize those who don't agree.. (sounds like how wars begin because people can't agree on religion..blah)

@Tenten1994 What my undiplomatic ally is trying to convey is that most people don't like Tool because they don't properly listen to it. Or any music for that matter, give a good, good listen to Rihannas latest song and you'll probably notice how repeatative and flat her music actually is. This goes for all mainstream music really.

@Tenten1994 Good point. Though people who start wars based on anything other than -- if you don't kill them then many others will die --- or something to that effect are flat out retarded. Not really the point of your comment but damn, I just felt like saying it.

@aidinharper What's a shame is that people these days still have the mind set of "If you don't believe what I believe, then fuck you". I would think that we've evolved past that. And on a Tool page too... wow

@aidinharper Easily amused. MTV should be renamed "Easily Amused" since they play disposable music. The masses suck up whatever MTV spits out and says is the 'new hawt jam', then a month later they're on to the next big thing. Nobody seems to have an appreciation for music that lasts. I'll continue to listen to these timeless songs and the ignorant masses can continue to be good little sheep.

jaybee863 1 year ago
@jtimm13 And if you paid attention to the lyrics, hes speaking of the Benevolent Son. The Son is Jesus Christ and it has always remained that way. It is in-mistakable to say that this Son is someone else because no other person in history has ever been called the Son. Plus with the references to "shine on" and "Light our way" as well as "Shine on until the two become one" it only reaffirms it. What mortal shines on a person and heals them?
Exorcio1 1 year ago
@Exorcio1 well put point, but likely false... APC - Judith "fuck your god, your lord and your christ, he did this. took all you had and left you this way" i doubt he would speak so highly of jesus, "benevolent son" when the majority of his work towards religion is negative.

@fenderman23 the only thing ive ever heard of him comeing closeing to haveing a posiive outlook on christianity and God is on the album 10,000 days but that was just because it was dedicated to her and he was honoring her beliefs

@Exorcio1 The song is about Maynard's kid. Stop trying to take that away from him....
For fuck sakes, if you go to the Sober video, one Jesus freak is going on about how Tool is so demonic, and this one is saying this song is all about Jesus.
Can you people just let the rest of the world enjoy music without you interfering every second?
I don't care if you have a religion, that's awesome, just shut up about it.

people this is a tool song, it has multiple meanings. Yes, there are biblical references, they are used to develop his feelings towards his son, who is the subject of the song.

XplzbedeadwithmeX 1 year ago
sorry for double posting but also this guy is saying "shine on forever shine on benevolent son. shine down upon the broken shine until the two become one. shine on upon the severed until the two become one. shine on upon the many, light our way, benevolent son." The Benevolent Son could well in fact be Jesus because 1. hes telling him to light our way which it says in the bible that Jesus is the light. 2. hes saying Legion get out of my way.and 3.a regular son or sun cant heal people broken ppl.
Exorcio1 1 year ago
im pretty sure it says "Silence Legion, say your preachin, silence Legion, stay out of my way" Legion is what demons are called when they are assembled and before in the song he mentions the devil so there could be some correlation there.
