tObey!

just wanted to share with you a new song from third eye blind. they were my fave back in high school, and of course they are still one of my favorite bands!! ahh, i went to go see them some few years back and i have to say that stephen jenkins is AWESOME!! i'm definatly gonna go see them again. stephen jenkins and the rest of the boys.. wOW. and he is a lyrical genius! you know how some bands.. you can just relate SO well w/ them? their very first album was SO good. it hit me like that. everything about it, the lyrics, the beat.. it had a wide range of emotions put into it. their second album was good too; though in my personal opinion, their first was better... but 'blue' has a lot of good songs in it as well, i really like the song 'slow motion' even though the lyrics are a bit.. er.. well, i guess i couldn't really explain it to you. it's kind of violent i guess? but it's also very beautiful in a strange way..

parts of slow motion --> "now he's bleeding in the vacant parking lot.... i guess i didn't mean it. but man, you shoulda seen it; his flesh explode. slow motion, see me let go. we tend to die young. slow motion see me let go, we'll remember these days. slow motion see me let go of a life decayed. now the cops will get me, but girl if you would let me. later bathing in the afterglow. and her nose starts to bleed, a most beautiful ruby red.."

ahhh i'll type in the whole song later... i'm so excited about this song! i like it, it's got a different beat from what they are used to. it's nice and very third eye blindish. i cant WAIT for their album in MAY!!!

this song is called --> 'blinded (when i see you)' "just an old friend coming over now to visit you and that's what i've become. i let myself in, though i know i'm not supposed to but.. i never know when i'm done.

and i see you fogging up the mirror, vapor around your body glistens in the shower. and i want to stay right here, and go down on you for an hour, or stay, and let the day just fade away in a wild dedication take the moment of hope, and let it run. never look back at all the damage we have done now to each other.. to each other..

but when i see you, its like im staring down the sun and i am blinded, there's nothing left to do. still i see you.

i never believed that things they happen for a reason and they never go as planned. i wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost that you returned, would you pass what you understand?

well her appetite is blown, little essence known except she's a little angry. grabs a towel, looks away. the heat fades with the day, and i, fall down on what to say. oh something clean, that would be clever.. hey, oh well whatever. but that's not what i mean. where we've been, has left us burnt. still, i wont turn down from a fight.. you know that i'll never win.

cause when i see you, you know all the things i've done. and i am blinded, it's like i'm staring down the sun. when i see you.. when i see you, it's like i'm staring down the sun.

time it passes, when it tells us what were left with, we become the things we do. me? i'm a fool, spent from defiance. yeah, you got me but i didn't give up on you.

but the rest is not a t-shirt, or a swan song. no. he is born again and it's not easy being me. well, i cant promise i will mend. or bend, when you believe that we are fixed now from our burden. am i just falling back to earth? still you know i'll try again. cause i believe that we are lucky, we are golden! we have stolen letters in the days when we were one..

so when i see you, despite of all we've become. i'm still blinded, but i'm still staring down the sun. when i see you.. when i see you.."
