    Lyrics
    Words have come from men and mouths
    But I can't help thinking that I've heard the wrong crowd
    When all the water is gone my job will be too
    And I'm trying to leave something behind
    Money is free but love costs more than our bread
    And the ceiling is hard to reach
    Oh the future ahead is broken and red
    But I'm trying to leave something behind
    This whole world is a foreign land
    We swallow the moon but we don't know our own hand
    We're running with the case but we ain't got the gold
    Yet we're trying to leave something behind
    My friends I believe we are at the wrong fight
    And I cannot read what I did not write
    I've been to his house, but the master is gone
    But I'd like to leave something behind
    There is a beast who has taken my brain
    You can put me to bed but you can't feel my pain
    When the machine has taken the soul from the man
    It's time to leave something behind
    Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread
    And the ceiling is hard to reach
    Oh the future ahead is already dead
    So I'm trying to leave something behind
    I got this feeling that I'm still at the shore
    And pockets don't know what it means to be poor
    I can get through the wall if you give me a door
    So I can leave something behind
    Oh wisdom is lost in the trees somewhere
    You're not going to find it in some mental gray hair
    It's locked up from those who hurry ahead
    And it's time to leave something behind
    Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread
    And the ceiling is hard to reach
    When my son is a man he will know what I meant
    I was just trying to leave something behind
    I was just trying to leave something behind

  • @MadMaxMFP-dc6kw
    @MadMaxMFP-dc6kw Před 7 lety +1

    The question you need to ask yourself is this, Where does the darkness end and the Light begin? When you can answer that, then you will have found the Truth and the true meaning to Life.

    • @jschuler53
      @jschuler53 Před měsícem

      @MadMaxMFP. There is no innate meaning of Life. I am guessing you are thinking of what a good or inspiring meaning to our lives would/should/could be. We are not asked to be born but do what we will with what we have. Things happen that people plan and work for and then other things happen, good things, tragedies, trauma, new life and death. All that then we just die and what we leave behind are the good AND BAD memories others have of us as well as our accomplishments, such as they are. I think you mean bad or evil when you say dark, or even death. And light is all the good. I don't believe that nor do I think that has anymore to do with the true meaning of life--as if there were just one. It's also true there are no good guys or bad guys, no light or dark...just a bunch of guys for whom some days are better than others. Then it's over. We are no different than a horse, cat or flower, we live, we die. But the world around us keeps on going. When it's going, I want what I leave behind to go around with it.
      On another note, I was intrigued by his back story and the way he grew up to control everything and became so flat and emotionless. I didn't quite understand the pain he inflicted upon himself with the loud music and strob lights other than to practice enduring stressful or painful situations and to hold his own. The clock was another way to control things. I found this to be very authentic from my experience. Coming out of a that kind of trauma as a kid it is typical that controlling everything that does go wrong or COULD go wrong is really important to people with autisim, OCD, and other disorders. I've seen this with my son and how as as child he lined up his cars and dinausaus like the little kid at the end. I love the message that maybe we don't know how to listen. Very inspiring. Great song and film.
