Porcupine Tree - Buying new Soul

Porcupine Tree - Buying new Soul, from the album "Recordings", HQ
Switch to 1080p for the best experience!

Dried up, a guitar upon my knee
I should have sold out when the devil came for me
Dig a hole and throw it out to sea
Break the code, how happy I could be

I still wave at the dots on the shore
And I still beat my head against the wall
I still rage and wage my little war
I'm a shade and easy to ignore

White wall, I had to paint a door
I always find that I've been through it before
Close it up and throw away the key
Break the code, how happy I could be

I woke up and I had a big idea
To buy a new soul at the start of every year
I paid up and it cost me pretty dear
Here's a hymn to those that disappear

Some people have already talked about it here, but I want this to be upvoted so more people can see this. The song is probably about how an artist gets a writer's block and sells out to the devil (money) and "be happy". But he doesn't. He still wages and rages his little war. He is a shade and easy to ignore. That is why this is on the obscure Recordings album. If this song becomes famous, it would defeat the purpose of the entire piece. How sincere must they be to create something like this...

How to take picture for your album artwork:

Step 1 - Stand in a mysterious and vacant area of nature.

Step 2 - Look in a random direction so it seems like you're too cool to notice that you're on the cover of an album.

It's true!

This song was one of the songs that cemented me as a Porcupine Tree/SW fan, forever...beyond beautiful...beyond anything else they had done previously...

@thealieninme me too. and also buying genuine cd/vinyls for better sound :)

thats how real music should be listened.

You know what Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) said once? "Our music should only be listened on a stereo heavy enough only 2 men can lift it up"

something like that
