Tool The Grudge

The song The Grudge by Tool
Album Lateralus
Track Number:1
Lyrics
Wear your grudge like a crown of negativity.
Calculate what we will or will not tolerate.
Desperate to control all and everything.
Unable to forgive your scarlet lettermen.

Clutch it like a cornerstone. otherwise it all comes down.
Justify denials and grip it to the lonesome end.
Clutch it like a cornerstone. otherwise it all comes down.
Terrified of being wrong. ultimatum prison cell.

Saturn ascends, choose one or ten. hang on or be humbled again.

Clutch it like a cornerstone. otherwise it all comes down.
Justify denials and grip it to the lonesome end.
Saturn ascends, comes round again.
Saturn ascends, the one, the ten. ignorant to the damage done.

Wear your grudge like a crown of negativity.
Calculate what you will or will not tolerate.
Desperate to control all and everything.
Unable to forgive your scarlet lettermen.

Wear the grudge like a crown. desperate to control.
Unable to forgive. and were sinking deeper.

Defining, confining, sinking deeper. controlling, defining, and were sinking
Deeper.

Saturn comes back around to show you everything
Lets you choose what you will not see and then
Drags you down like a stone or lifts you up again
Spits you out like a child, light and innocent.

Saturn comes back around. lifts you up like a child or
Drags you down like a stone to
Consume you till you choose to let this go.
Choose to let this go.

Give away the stone. let the oceans take and transmutate this cold and fated
Anchor.
Give away the stone. let the waters kiss and transmutate these leaden grudges
Into gold.

Someone told me once that if you listen very closly at 6:57 you can hear God shitting his pants at how awesome this song is.

[TheCrystalRiver]

ACTUALLY, this is really about.... eh, nvm. Just kidding.

@hj7397 lame/fail

[Blarghman777]

@ThcPatient That's understandable, it's not an easy feat!

[dupersloby]

this whole album is about being an angry man, and doing acid.

[ThcPatient]

@Blarghman777 I always try to sing along, but never manage...

[gators5220327]

@hj7397 Come on,now,that's just exaggerated.

[xxxYouTunesxxx]

REALLY wish they would put out a few more live albums

That's interesting because someone told me that if you listen very closely at 3:51, you can hear the clicking of Jesus playing chess with Cthulhu while Godzilla and King Kong arm wrestle each other and Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers are riding dragons shooting lighting and fire out of their blades down at thousands of Imperial Stormtroopers who are fighting off robotic silver-back gorillas under the command of Eddie who is riding King Ghidorah with Natalie Portman into the sunset. Yep.
