"Away from the lands so battred and torn"

"1983 A Merman I Should Turn To Be" Hendrix,Jimi

This is a video I created when I was bored and who other to be portrayed in my video than the great Hendrix,Jimi. I love this song and chose to bring different experiences that I have had and photos of my fav pics in it. I thank everyone who has commented on my vid...it really does make me feel special. Please be sure to visit my channel and view my other vids. Ciao!

Here are the lyrics:

Hurray i awake from yesterday
Alive but the war is here to stay
So my love catherina and me
Decide to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea
Not to die but to be reborn
Away from the lands so battred and torn
Forever forever

Oh say can you see it's really such a mess
Every inch of earth is a fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick-tube shaped things
Continue to rain and cause screamin' pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red
As our feet find the sand
And the sea is straight ahad
Straight up ahead

Well it's too bad that our friends can't be with us today
Well it's too bad
The machine that we built
Would never save us that's what they say
That's why they ain't comin' with us today
And they also said it's impossible
For a man to live and breathe undrerwater
Forever was a main complaint
Yeah and they also threw this in my face they said
Anyway you know good and well
It would be beyond the will of god
And the grace of the king
Grace of the king
Yeah

Ooo

So my darling and i make love in the sand
To salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine it has done its work played its part well
Without a scratch on our body when we bid it farewell
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile
Before our heads go under we take our last look at the killing noise
Of the out of style
The out of style out of style oh yeah
Oooo

So down and down and down and down we go
Hurry my darlin' we mustn't be late
For the show
Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so my dear
Right this way smiles a mermaid
I can hear atlantis full of cheer
Atlantis full of cheer
I can hear atlantis full of cheer
Oh yeah

This is MY favorite song of all time, too. I am a Hendrix fanatic.

he should be viewed as someone who sincerely wanted to make a difference in the world--like a John Lennon.

I am glad to know that people like you--the ones that have responded--are out there.

this imo is such an under rated song. one of his best imo. probably my favorite. of course he has many other songs with amazing solos like machine gun but this is more about his song writing abilities and the way he plays with sound.

@MsPall35

Everyone and their cousin has ripped of Hendrix in some way...

Jimis inspiration has powered rock musics creativity since the 70's till today.

many camouflage it, some admit it, but those of us with ears and experience know what is what.

[MsPall35]

I agree.....one of his best yet one of his lesser known.....<3

[MsPall35]

@SweetFire96 Yeah your right, they definately jacked the intro nd you can also hear a slight variation of that riff too, hey Jimi influenced all those guys man, he is definately the blueprint

[SweetFire96]

Huge fans as they are.
