Hurt - Fighting Tao (New Song) & Lyrics. Goodbye to the Machine out April 7th.

New song from Hurt
Lyrics:

If I'd've known it is the only time
I would see your face
Then we'd celebrate
When I'm alone living is only time
Till I see your face
Though it's not today

When I'm alone it is the only time
I will see your face
When I'm desperate
Now I'm alone building my holy shrine
Where I'll see your face
And then contemplate

If everything that's new is a lie
It's that same damn morning
And the same damn sky

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
Though I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you don't believe
Well I'll see you where the river meets us

Fighting the tide that takes me home
Only dreaming of the day
When the world will go away
A world that's full of pain
We fight the fight so that might know the fear of our mortality
If you breathe between the waves
You will end up in a lake

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
Though I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you don't believe
I'll see you where the river takes me

[Violin Solo]

And everything that's new is a lie
It's that same damn sun
In the same damn sky
And everything you thought you knew is a lie
God bless you son
At least you tried

All I do brings me close to you
Whatever you'd ask me to
So I can't take back what's taken from me
All I see becomes a part of me
And even if you won't believe
Well I'll see you where the river takes me

All I do (Just brings me close to you) (All I do)
You were all I'd see (Becomes a part of me... a part of me)
And all I do (Just brings me close to you)
You're all I see
And I'll see you when the river meets us

New album's out March 27, '12

[YoutoobHatesRyan]

@Kunaidueler1 Sources?

[RyTrapp0]

the reason this album sounds different from vol I/vol II is because it's all new material. nearly all of the material from I/II was written years back solely by the lead singer, j loren.

BTW, 'sellout' is a catch phrase thrown around by so called "fans" who would rather their favorite band stay in a rut and recycle the same material over and over instead of evolving as musicians. you don't have to like it, but 'goodbye to the machine' is clearly an evolution of their music.

[YoutoobHatesRyan]

@RyTrapp0 EXACTLY

[TheBlankyjoe]

@Mr4433 - You are 100% right, forgive these people Jesus for they know not what they do.

[MrScruffyFerret]

@RyTrapp0 Fighting Tao is actually not a new song. It think it was on the Consumation or Self-Titled album. But anyways, this song was out much before the album came out. But other than that, I agree.

[RyTrapp0]

@chiutienn don't get me wrong, i know thats the original meaning of 'sell out' and that it does happen. however, a not anywhere close to the extent that a lot of people claim it does. 'goodbye to the machine' is a great example, some hurt fans will say they sold out just because it's pretty different compared to vol I/vol II and they don't like that change. but instead of just saying that they don't like it, they gotta throw the 'sell out!' phrase out there. thus, my original comment

[chiutienn]

But when the '80s arrived, they abandoned their sound and "sold out" at the cost of sounding like every other prog band out there (since they all sounded poppy). Anyone familiar with the prog greats will tell you that their '70's material was the height of their creativity.

[chiutienn]

@RyTrapp0 I disagree and am surprised that so many people agree with you. When you "sell out," you adopt a poppier sound to reach a more mainstream audience. Take the great prog bands of the '70s. They were making sophisticated music far beyond their years.

@YoutoobHatesRyan Heres the source this is from the fan email list

Hey Guys,

We're giving you a link to an exclusive stream of a track from our upcoming record entitled "The Crux". The album comes out March 27th, 2012. Please don't record it and post it anywhere else. We also would appreciate you not sharing the link as we've made it PRIVATE for a reason. This is a measure of trust between us. We hope you like it. It'll be available for sale on January 3rd, 2012.

i saw them a couple of days ago, Great people as well as great musicians. they took the time to meet EVERYONE who wanted to stay after the show. They are def not in it for the money. they do it because they are passionate about it. and YES the new album should be just as amazing as all of their last ones :) i love this song... and YES it's just an evolution. not a sell out.
