From Heads Unworthy

Second fan video from HBO's amazing mini-series John Adams... focuses on the rising conflict between the colonies and England.

Song is "From Heads Unworthy," by Rise Against...

We are the children you reject and disregard
These aching cries come from the bottom of our hearts
You can't disown us now, we are your own flesh and blood
And we don't disappear just because your eyes are shut, now tell me

Love, loss
Like a bullet's path
Tear through
The cavity of my chest
Lights out
Because the fuse has blown

As their castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
Their crown slips from heads unworthy
As we gain control

This is the family that we crossed or never had
This is a war that was lost the day it began
'Cause it's the race we run, but it keeps us at the start
And it's the song I sung from the bottom of my heart, that's how we

Read you
Like a polygraph
Not one
Single bone in your back
Own up
To how you let us down

As their castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
Their crown slips from heads unworthy
As we gain control

Except for you and me, love
Everyone's the same, we know
But if to live, we have to be numb
I'd rather know the pain, I'd rather know
This happens almost never
But it happened once to me
And this will never be the same
The ends we seam together

I'm not after fame and fortune
I'm after you
When I've served my time I swear I
Will come back for you

As their castles crumble slowly
We watch them fall
Their crown slips from heads unworthy
And right on to ours

I'm after you...

You young people sure like horrible, uninspired music.

[Eaglechica19]

to each his own... everyone's allowed to have their opinions. if everyone liked the same thing we'd be pretty boring.

as for labeling us as "young," and having a horrible taste in music, this is just one song, and i happen to find it very inspiring. i listen to rap, rock, classical, old punk, blues, country, and just about anything else under the sun. so please don't stereotype me, or my taste in music. you don't know me.

thanks for the comment though, i like diversity

This is absolutely amazing! The editing is great, and I love this song. The fact that it is a fanvid of John Adams makes it even better! Must fav it!

[Eaglechica19]

Nicely done Eagle!

[thefeuds]

Will people stop putting shit music over the top of videos. I would rather listen to the actually bloody film, not some shitty pop rock.

[JUDTJ]

My teacher showed us this in SS class.

[HammerOvThor]

Gotta agree with that one guy. This song doesn't fit with the vid.

@a55kiker And thanks to you for yours as well.

[a55kiker]

@Stardweller1 Very cool. Music is a very personal thing, I reckon. But that is the cool thing about it. And during this pleasant exchange of words I have noticed that I now agree with your original claim that the lyrics, not the style of music, is a more clear indicator of one's character. The emotion behind raw music is no indicator of the artist's message. But the lyrics do clearly show the artist's message. Very cool, thanks for your insight.

[Stardweller1]

@a55kiker Okay, I see what your getting at. And I agree that the music I listen to also correlates to my feelings, but it's a little different for me. A hard rock song is what I might listen to when I'm feeling passionate about something, but not necessarily (or even typically) when I'm angry.

[a55kiker]

@Stardweller1 Well, it has been my experience that the music I want to listen to directly correlates to how I am feeling at the time. This is also true with people I know. I see that as one of the coolest things about music. It is more than just sounds, it can influence and reflect one's feelings. Bach's "Air" is one peice of music which often reflects my "carefree, optimistic" moods, while Rage Against the Machine's "Bulls on Parade" is more something for when I'm angry.
