i want'em too, ya know...


Someone posted mp3's of them. I think if you go back a few days and search for something entitled "new songs" kind of like this one, you'll find 'em.

I Feel Good

I feel so good inside
From my left side you won't take it
From my right side you won't take it
No you won't

And let me tell you how it happened to me
Oh, I was standing alone
Waiting for you to come home

Well you make the world go round and round
Holding your arm my hopes down
I'm lost and I'm found
and it just so happens it happened to you too

OoOoh

And I was so wrong about you
And first and foremost let me apologize
'Cause I realized how unorganized
My thinking was then
You are impossibly generous

You make the world go round and round
Holding your arm my hopes down
I'm lost and I'm found
And it just so happens it happened to you

I would, you would too
I would, you would too
I, I can save you in this war
I

But you make the world go round and round
Holding your arm my hopes down
I'm lost and I'm found
And it just so happens it happened to you

Ooh I'm lost and I'm found
Yeah it just so happens it happened to you too


I think I was able to decipher the bold changes, a few more lines do not sound right, maybe someone else (Sherri?) can contribute?

Those were hilarious, thanks.

Yeah, I realized "first and foremost" when I was rereading the other posts after posting mine and felt really dumb. I know the word I wrote as "generalized" isn't "generalized," but I don't think it's "generous" either--it sounds like it ends in ized.

Invasion

Cause when
The burning now feels like
The bright lights
Are safe and
Taking my chase
To cut how I feel lice
The promise you
Passed its steaks

Oh, something’s not right
I can feel inside
Something’s not right

Oh, you are taking breath from molecules
You are taking chairs you know that I hold

Tongue-tied, you will be a while, nah
Flat screens and ice cream rich
Floats to drink
This water I’d be shifting or shape to our drones

Little child they cuss to get ourselves
One by one, one by one
Call me crazy but they are after us
One by one, one by one

I can't decipher the rest without being nonsensical. Sorry.

Invasion

There was a burn on our heels (?)
as the bright lights of the city
taking our chase to cover our fear (?)
as the burning (?) moon cast its face

oOo, something's not right
I can feel it inside
something's not right

You, you, you, you-
wont take the breathe from my lungs (?)
and you, you, you, you-
wont take the cherished people that I hold

Don't try, we'll be one of us (?)
ring its, us- ring its throat. (?)
will faulter, (?)
shifting your shape to ourselves

oOo, something's not right
I can feel it inside
something's not right.

You, you, you, you-
won't take the breathe from my lungs (?)
and you, you, you, you-
wont take the cherished people that I hold

They will try to make us forget ourselves,
one by one, one by one,
call me crazy but they are after us,
one by one, one by one
you don't have to know the truth
if you believe it- I believe it too
you don't have to know the truth
if you believe it- I believe it too

oOo, something's not right
I can feel it inside
something's not right.

You, you, you, you-
won't take the breathe from my lungs (?)
and you, you, you, you-
wont take the cherished people that I hold

You, you, you, you-
won't take the breathe from my lungs
(they will try to make us forget ourselves- one by one, one by one)
and you, you, you, you-
wont take the cherished people that I hold
(call me crazy but they are after us- one by one, one by one)

--------------

Ummm. Yeah. This is a hard song to figure out! It doesn't sound like Sherri is saying 'lungs' it sounds like she is saying something like 'bones'... so I don't know about that. And I swear it sounds like shes saying 'ring their throats'. I hope she is Laughing

ok, I redid my invasion on the first page, and there is one word missing, but otherwise I believe it is accurate. I am almost 100 percent. just to let you know.

Yes. If you can't download the Boyd video, I think someone posted it at YouTube. There was also a post working out the lyrics about a month ago.

Invasion (there are definitely mistakes, but this is what I heard, anyway)

The colourless words are burning our heels
as the bright lights of the city did.
Taking the chase to cover our fear
as the breathless move passed this place.

Oh, something's not right,
I can feel it inside,
something's not right.

And you, you won't take the breath from my throat.
And you, you won't take the cherished people that I hold.

All in time, you will be one of us, painless, (...)
Go to sleep, this won't hurt a bit, shifting your shape to ourselves.

Oh, something's not right,
I can feel it inside,
something's not right.

And you, you won't take the breath from my throat.
And you, you won't take the cherished people that I hold.

They will try to make us forget ourselves, one by one, one by one.
Call me crazy, but they are after us, one by one, one by one.

You don't have to know the truth,
if you believe it, I believe it too.
You don't have to know the truth,
if you believe it, I believe it too.

Oh, something's not right,
I can feel it inside,
something's not right.

And you, you won't take the breath from my throat.
And you, you won't take the cherished people that I hold.

And they will try to make us forget ourselves, one by one, one by one.
Call me crazy, but they are after us, one by one, one by one.

As far as Invasion goes:

Quote:
cover our fear

Quote:
come out here as

Quote:
overcome our fear


So am I the only one hearing "curb our fears" at this part?


Other than that...I'm too lazy to figure it all out.





On an unrelated side note I (finally) purchased my tickets for the Dallas show last night.

edit because im a nerd: I also think its 'as the bright lights of the city fade'
