Zeitgeist Lyrics

[Fritter]

So yeah there seems to be a lot of threads on individual songs, so why don't we collect them all in one thread.

Here's what i got from thats the way:

they say that love ain't easy
they'll say your last cry
destroy all good reasons
but I’m alive

they'll say that nothing matters
not even the will to survive
of course i love you any
yes i'm alive

yes i'm alive

whenever i call, you will
whenever i draw, you'll run
whenever it's here, and now

that’s the way, my love is
that’s the way, i care
you should call i'll always be me
cause I’m always there, for you
cause I’m always there, for me

they'll say you'll lose your mercy
to claim our dead streets
disgrace a sacred promise
with no belief

oh i believe me

that’s the way, my love is for you
that’s the way, my love is for you

I feel I’ve come of age now
I feel I’ve dawned on me
lost and the sun keeps rising
oh I believe in me

that’s the way, my love is
that’s the way, i care
you should call I’ll always be me
cause I’m always there, for you
cause I’m always there, for me

that’s the way, my love is
that’s the way, i care
you should call i'll always be me
cause I’m always there, for you
cause I’m always there, for you

and here's a few i found here:

bleeding the orchid

i can lead on
milk from the flower
blood from the dawn

so here we are upon your stage
the laughs we share
the dreams we save
we're bleeding the orchid

blessed my weakness
blessed my rose
as hate forms a sequence
of one by one
as freedom's not easy
we're selfish to want
there's clouds in my shower
ghosts in my home

youth is where you are
???
we're bleeding the orchid

guilty of this silent march
past triumph through our love
so lost charmed
and others will stand for much
but hearts untouched
the hearts unloved

we're bleeding the orchid
here we are upon your stage
the love we share
the dreams we'll save
we're bleeding the orchid

my suggestions:

dry your eyes, closed for days
there's no regret, 'cause there's no place
where i don't know what i believe
but if i feel safe, what do i need
a home

revolution, revolution, revolution blues
what will they do to me

dulcet tones whisper fast
refuse your yearns, renounce the past
rouse me soon, the end draws nigh
whose side are you on
your blood you cannot buy

revolution, revolution, revolution blues
what will they do to you

well i, i feel alright
so tonight i got to ask you why
why did i
it's no surprise
i get to survive
ow

bring out your light, i'll help
i'll lay the last child to bed
say the last rites
i don't have to run scared no more

but i want to fight, i want to fight
a revolution tonight
at the light, at the light
do you wanna watch me burn

let me do something good
let me prove something real like i should
let me embrace every single living thing
let me embrace every single moment i ever misunderstood

[BrokenGourds]

with the exception of a few lines, i really like those lyrics.

[You Said]

"of course i love you any"?

Eh place filler, i couldn't think of anything else and that's what it sounds like he says.
