Self titled song off of Great White Whale


I'm searching for
The great white whale
Strong and bold
And I will grab
Him by his tail
And drag him home

Locked in a tower
He will sleep forever
Locked in a tower
I'll never be alone again

I'm searching for
That open field
Vast and scorn

Down by the alder
We were wishing our hearts together
Down by the alder
Where you told me you'd never love another

The animals
Are gathering
To hunt me down
To take revenge
For kidnapping
Your gentle sound

Down to the river
In the current you start to shiver
Return to the river
With the howling of all the animals
That needed you

An uprising
Impossible to fail
The creatures come from land, and sea, and air
The forest alive
With leaves, and bone, and hair
Give the animals their whale

Down to the river
In the current you start to shiver
Return to the river
With the howling of all the animals

In hunting and living
If you remember one thing
Remember I needed you

  • To everyone, this song has meaning but it's not really deep because of the lyrics, its deep because of the melody. It talks about the injustice of desire and how even though he may want something, people don't want to see him with the object or person. They also want it to keep some type of order, however, in order to do so, the singer can't have it. Basically, it's a story on unfulfilled desire. I know it's a loose interpretation, but youtube only allows me to say so much. Hope this helped.

  • most underrated band ever?

  • this song makes me sad.. Charles is an amazing Artist <3

  • They're just amazing.

  • I had crazy awesome sex to this song..... just sayin'

  • @XohmadonX Craig Owens is a whiny bitch with a ton of hubris. Just ask Chiosos. Charles is an introspective, humble, philosophical type. One is objectively better than the other. So I guess I'm having trouble seeing how I fail. Cheers.

  • @ghostgate82 So you can whine at someone for thinking that a certain person sings but if someone else points you at a mistake u gonne bitch bout it? =d If so then you do fail more than he did.

  • I love how ominous the beginning is.

  • @NixonTragedy Aww, that's so cute how You Tube still has little spell checkers scurrying about. Good for you buddy! Good for you. Now go be useful.

  • this band will forever be my favourite

  • @ghostgate82 *Talent. You fail.
