Default lyrics? spoliers!

shot down
i stood
withstood my neighborhood
i got it wrong
but i could
fall in love, lest i learn
this light to bring the lights
i fall with all my might
with lights

oh, bring the light

light, bring the light
i never felt so good and right
but tonight
you'll never need another sound

bring the light
bring the light to me

here and gone
but i trust
you'd spit up all my dust
and mix my ash with your blood
the son of god, you know you must
drive in the light

bring the light
bring the light

light, bring the light
it's yours, not mine
if you just want to survive
go grab a glimpse of [?]

i never felt so real and loved and alive
no shadows follow me [unsung?]
in the light
bring the light to me

a flower soft, clear and bright
isn't wrong, neon white
you insist you were mine
standing down in the light

bring the light
oh bring the light
bring the light

light, bring the light
i've never felt so real and right and alive
don't let them steal from you
what's yours, alright

light, bring the light
you know that it comes from a place inside
you can't deny
with every movement shadows cast a light

light, bring the light [x20]

Where'd you get these?

They are... rather lacklustre.

Does it really fuckin matter? Give the guy a damn break! Maybe he isn't as good as a lyricist as he used to be, but he is still a damn good musician/song writer/ frontman.

It's like he has to be perfect to please some of you. He has already made music that no other bands can top (Mellon Collie)....is that not enough already?

Stop being so damn negative. It's not just you...this comment just pissed me off. There are plenty of others out there that do the same gay negative shit.

Smile and be happy. Billy is 40 years old and the Pumpkins are still a band. Is that not enough to be happy about? Why bitch and moan about stuff you can't control?

You are far from perfect as well buddy. Some of your negative comments just make me sick! It's simple, if you don't like the new stuff, then find something else to listen to and talk about. You obviously don't like it, so why waste your time here bitching and making fun of Billy?

man i never even read that book. I picked it up in the store and thumbed through it a bit; It made me feel somewhat embarrassed for Billy, I couldn't bring myself to read any further.

You too, huh? I own that book, but I've never been able to get through it because all I can think when I try to read it is, "how did it all come to this? Ugh."

q) his fans, the positive and the negative. I can't fucking tell who is worse. There are no middle men.


But seriously folks, get off this guys case about leaking the record and get on his case about doing a detailed song by song review. I don't want to hear a shitty quality version of it, just want some details already, and i'll be fine with that.

so implosion.. song by song details PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

that was awesome. however i would add:

edit: to clarify, i was referring to the cover shot and all of the retarded/arty/faggy pictures inside. however you could just count the whole album as well (minus a couple songs).

It sort of reminds me of Declarations of Faith, if Zwan had balls. Like, imagine you took the chorus of Declarations of Faith and wrapped a good song around it. It doesn't sound like Zwan, per se, but it also doesn't sound like Pumpkins. It's a good song (and I'm not a blind fan, I don't think).

come on, let's go
i'll find you waiting there
beyond their violent stare
the lines around your soul

you could be my friends
lovely and depressed
crushing up the stars above us
and guaranteed to spoil [?]

[?] my only way back home
someone speaks and instantly i'm cold

come on, let's go
come on, let's go
beyond the great unknown
beyond their hunched up skulls to die upon this road

come on, let's go
come on, let's go
anesthetized, now hollow
laying to the dark back of home ?

come on, let's go
go-oh-oh, come on, let's go

assimilate
it's all been staged
i've made mistakes
[?]
it's all the same
it can't await
that love spells hate

i wanna love
i wanna love

i'm wishing that i'm [?]
i'm wishing that love saves me
love walks me home

come on, let's go
come on, come on let's go

[?] my only way back home
someone [?] and instantly i'm thrown

come on, let's go
come on, let's go
go-oh-oh, come on, let's go

I managed to get a review copy for the day. I tried ripping it a million different ways (so I could listen longer than just today), but the thing is seriously locked down. I tried every major ripper on Windows and Linux. The damn thing won't even play in any of my DVD players. That's probably a big reason this thing hasn't leaked. I could probably record it through line out/line in, but it won't sound as good and theoretically it's still watermarked, so I'm really sorry I can't share.
