15 Tool- Third Eye (W/ Lyrics)

See, I think drugs have done some *good* things for us, I really do. And if you don't believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a Favor: go home tonight and take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your cd's and burn em'. 'Cause you know what? The musicians who've made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years...
Rrrrrrrrrrrrreal ------ high on drugs."
--Bill Hicks


"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here's Tom with the weather."

"It's not a war on drugs, it's a war on personal freedom, it´s what it is ok?. Keep that in mind at all times. Thank you!"
-- Bill Hicks


Dreaming of that face again.
It's bright and blue and shimmering.
Grinning wide
And comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes.

On my back and tumbling
Down that hole and back again
Rising up
And wiping the webs and the dew from my withered eye.

In... Out... In... Out... In... Out...

A child's rhyme stuck in my head.
It said that life is but a dream.
I've spent so many years in question
to find I've known this all along.

"So good to see you.
I've missed you so much.
So glad it's over.
I've missed you so much
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?"

Shroud-ing all the ground around me
Is this holy crow above me.
Black as holes within a memory
And blue as our new second sun.
I stick my hand into his shadow
To pull the pieces from the sand.
Which I attempt to reassemble
To see just who I might have been.
I do not recognize the vessel,
But the eyes seem so familiar.
Like phosphorescent desert buttons
Singing one familiar song...

"So good to see you.
I've missed you so much.
So glad it's over.
I've missed you so much.
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?
Came out to watch you play.
Why are you running away?"

Prying open my third eye.
Prying open my third eye.
Prying open my third eye.
Prying open my third eye.

So good to see you once again.
I thought that you were hiding.
And you thought that I had run away.
Chasing the tail of dogma.
I opened my eye
I opened my eye
I opened my eye
and there we were...

Open my eye
Open my eye
Open my eye
and there you were...

So good to see you once again
I thought that you were hiding from me.
And you thought that I had run away.
Chasing a trail of smoke and reason.

Prying open my third eye. x 10

[hellraiser7874]

Bill Hicks just left a message on my machine. Asked that I request on his behalf for yall to shut the fuck up. Please. Actually he was begging. Shut the fuck up. Most ov you are on everygoddamn Tool video trying to speak for a dead man and trying to count time.Whos cooler than who. Im cooler than you an so on.Now Im fucking getting sucked into it. What time signature is that fucking space ship in thats incoming around 6:30 or so? Theyre trying to turn you on .Fucking ascend or move to the back.

[alex1s111]

TOOL is like DAVID LYNCH films you listen to the music, see the films and you sure understand something, but you don't know if that is what the wanted to say.

You come closer to the real meaning by listening and watching over and over again...

or...AT LEAST THAT IS FOR ME...!!!

@xTheWorldNeedsAHerox

The only corporate hack around here is you, dude, pontificating and passing judgement like a delusional little bitch. You think corporate hack is the ultimate insult. No, that would be sanctimonious cunt, and you are one.

[xTheWorldNeedsAHerox]

True, but Bill Hicks was very anti-mainstream. He was anti-mainstream for the sake of it. And he'd be a fucking asshole about it, I can tell you. I don't think he would have appreciated how much Tool franchised themselves and sold-out to MANY pseudo-spiritual idiots who don't REALLY get Tool's message and let marketing turn what could have been great art into bile in a way. Bill Hicks was proof you don't fucking need 15 million dollars to yourself for your craft annually, sorry Jon Stewart. XD

[xTheWorldNeedsAHerox]

I think it's sad that Tool seemed to miss out on Bill's lectures and teaching of marketing, franchising, and being a corporate whore. It's sad that Tool became SO commercial... Now you've got all these pseudo-spiritual idiots YEAH. I'm listening to stoner hippie music. *facepalm* That's not the point dipshit. It's the message. I think Bill Hicks makes Jon Stewart look like a mediocre corporate hack in the same way Warrel Dane from Nevermore makes Maynard from Tool look like a corporate hack. XD

[angelomorf]
