from the album 100th window
this is a Song about drugs I didnt know was secretly about drugs for months and months of listening to it
:D
Small time shot away.....
it's massive attack so its so low the lyrics are always subliminal until you accidentally come across the lyrics somewhere.i actually couldnt believe it(!! ) when i read these lyrics..they seem so specific for a song,as though it were about some couple&their drug relationship in particular, rather than about i.v. using couples universally.
someone else tell me what they think? im totally interested in the dynamics in relationships where drugs and needles are involved. the rituals, the roles, interaction, whats shared and whats not.the crazy parts. the sexuality.
because i dont know any other needle-user who has a girlfriend or boyfriend(they're all single); i only have my own experiences with my lover to draw on, &i wonder how complex the relationship btwn two i.v.-users can get&how much it can differ from another relationship........
this song made me shocked to think that maybe, all drug/love-partnerships follow the same particular type of patterns.
this song is a bit special, anyway
listen to it through your headphones people, for the intricacies because it sounds not only ten times better than on regular shitty speakers, but like an entirely different song.it can sometimes feel almost too intimate or invasive the way the quiet sounds of it creep all the way into your ears and hide inside you, like theyre playing from in there.
here it goes->
Took her in
Dropped a line
Turned me on
(I travel I travel)
We never leave each other 'cause we leave each other so cold
Makes it melt away
The easy part is taking yourself in
It’s wartime every time
Shot away
Wipe the smile from your face
It’s getting in the way
It’s wartime every time
She cut me a line and she turned me on
She made it cool
You couldn’t do it if you wanted to
(Believe me believe me)
It’s wartime every time
Small talk every time
It’s my favourite chloroform
It’s pill talk every time
Get it out the way
Friction wound
Shot away
Ricochet
We're like identical twins
Sucking on the same teat
Spitting out the same things
(I travel far, I travel far)
It’s wartime every time
Small talk every time
It’s my favourite chloroform
It’s pillow talk every time
Get it out the way
Friction wound
Ricochet
Line’em up and knock’em down
Shot away
A shot away
A shot away
A shot away
