Yeah, I agree. That's my favorite 12 Stones song. Great lyrics, good vocals, great solo and just a great song.

To tear away at tha mask Away at tha mask To tear away at tha mask To tear away at tha mask |

WTF? and you say Metallica shouldn't be in here?
Serj's Songs only make sense when you're either FUCKED Up in the Head because of Mental Disablity or because You're Under The Influence of something...

lol i agree i'ld say that SOAD would have to sound better under the influence......zack's lyrics are/were good however. besides stappy i'm struggling to think of those on the right sight of spectrum who i would consider good lyricists. i guess hetfield is not really a tree-hugging hippie!

Serj and Hetfield can't hold a candle to the master:
'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved Everything up to that point had been left unresolved. Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail, Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail, Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair. She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Now there's a wall between us, somethin' there's been lost I took too much for granted, got my signals crossed. Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove And old men with broken teeth stranded without love. Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn? "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes I bargained for salvation an' they gave me a lethal dose. I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine. If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

I would have to say Brandon Boyd (Incubus) or Brad Nowell (Sublime).
Two people touching lips Hands on each other's hips Nothing in else in the world but one another The 42nd floor On a distant shore I wonder how we've strayed so far from this Remember when we were Just flesh and bone You sir may have forgotten how good your world can be So, put down your hollow tips And kiss your lovers lips And know that fate is what we make of it I read the news today And everything they say Just makes me want to stay inside and wait But the better part of me knows That waiting in the throws Is on par with reading with my eyes closed "What Can I do?", you say "It's just another day In the life of apes with ego trips" Put down your hollow tips And kiss your lover's lips And know that fate is what we make of it Please end this, please end this Before this ends us, ends us I wanna stay inside I wanna stay inside for good I wanna stay inside Don't want to stay inside for good -Incubus - Agoraphobia I think its a great song about modern day politics/sociology |

Good lyricist is all subjective, one person's opinion will differ than the others...
Serj makes perfect sense (i am not a stoner), he is talking about how advertisement is all around constantly harassing us. At least thats what i think it is about, Serj leaves it up for interpretation. |
