LYRICS:

I just sit there, and let the thoughts flood
And I remind myself it's all right, it's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cuz there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in, the more I think of the drama
So I stand up, I start to pace in my living room
Set my eye to the highway, knowin' that I'll play chicken soon
There's a vanity plate, wit my name on it
There's a Davy Crocket hat with a masonic fat cat under it
A musket rifel spittin' at my feet
And want me to dance in the middle of the street
And I respect my elders, so I do as I'm told
But I've offset the bell curve when I do it with so losin' control
Guilty feet do have rhythm
They just dance to the wrong theme music to amuse the villian
Instead of killin', I spare the raccoon
And start fillin' sand bags as I stare at the moon
And let the thoughts flood, blessed are those who are damned
When the levy broke, how many choked on the steps of a slow dance
A staircase to a hug with no hands
Accountability hung out to dry on the line of command
We let the thoughts flood, we remind ourselves it's all right, it's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cuz there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in, sharing a drink with my father
It's a family affair, the vanity we share
The water line is rising and we do is stand there..

The water line is rising and we do is stand there {*repeat to fade*}

  • Your opinions on what the song means, actually means nothing unless you get the facts from the song writer himself. So stop guessing and just enjoy the song, and like what it means to you.

  • @7Dinosaurs i agree partially to what ur saying, but thats kind of what the comment section is for, stating ur opinion, of what the artist is putting out. what is so wrong about that. u dont have to read other peoples opinions

  • @marcolotr That's very true. It was just a few peoples comments that I read. Got my brain racing, and I just reacted. I never mean any disrespect when it comes to that. An opinion none the less :D

  • @7Dinosaurs cheers :)

see all

  • @marcolotr OMG!?!? A mature argument! you've made my day. lawlz

  • some people may not agree on a song meaning, but it doesn't matter as long as were enjoying the artist

  • @TheMashupMessiah I agree with you I'm just saying when people argue over it. Shit is annoying. Its just constant trolling. No one will ever be right or wrong.

  • @7Dinosaurs But that's the whole point of art, to interpret & try to understand the message the artist is trying to get across. If he didn't want us to guess, he wouldn't speak in metaphors.

  • @Phantom66789 YES. the Fountain..

    i never seen that whole movie but the parts i seen were sick.. really good movie

  • sage says vanity alot

  • @Phantom66789 It's featured in the 2008 movie "Pride and Glory". Great movie. Fantastic song, can't get enough of it.

  • isnt this song in a movie?

    

  • @stonedrose23 Thats what I think it is directly about but its more symbolic of the real problem of our country

  • @Darkpuppet12 I believe it has to do with us just watching our country implode as we head towards the NWO. Or at least that what it means to me.
