    "Call And Answer" Lyrics:
    I think it's getting to the point
    Where I can be myself again
    I think it's getting to the point
    Where we have almost made amends
    I think it's the getting to the point
    That is the hardest part.
    And if you call, I will answer
    And if you fall, I'll pick you up
    And if you court this disaster
    Ill point you home
    You think I only think about you
    When were both in the same room
    You think Im only here to witness
    The remains of love exhumed
    You think were here to play
    A game of who loves more than whom
    And if you call, I will answer
    And if you fall, I'll pick you up
    And if you court this disaster
    Ill point you home
    You think it's only fair to do what's
    Best for you and you alone
    You think it's only fair to do the same
    To me when you're not home
    I think it's time to make this something that is
    More than only fair
    So if you call, I will answer
    And if you fall, I'll pick you up
    And if you court this disaster
    Ill point you home.
    But Im warning you, don't ever do
    Those crazy, messed up things that you do
    If you ever do
    I promise you I'll be the first to crucity you
    Now it's time to prove that youve come back
    Here to rebuild. Subscribe to Nettwerk's CZcams channel:

    Michael, rest in peace. I love you. This was the first song you ever sang for me. I cried then, you did it so much justice. Your vocals, and emotions were chilling to my core. Forever I call to you. I know you've answered. 🥺😥😭😭💕💝💞

    i totally agree there is more to him, as with everyone but i can only admire what i know. I have a lot of repect for BNL, and my thoughts are with them, they have had it pretty tough as a group.
    Also he writes from experience which I like as I find his writing so emotional and an honest insight into depression.Takes guts to wear your heart on your sleeve, when he is in such a position to be critised.

    I remember years ago when this music would play, at night I would dream of this large African male named Enoch gliding across the Atlantic ocean, riding a cyclone as if it were his magic carpet. It seemed to me he was the Djinn, like an ascended master. He was headed toward Jerusalem much like a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi. Several battleships were aligned against the Antediluvian Patriarch. He raised his hand and laughed with joy as he said, "The Lord rebuke you."
    Several hundred perished as the waves collapsed in the waves of Cuneiform Writing like the Epic of Gilgamesh. Three battleships were lost in that hour and that was when Jannes and Jambres knew they could not beat Enoch & Elijah. Then the rulers of the world said to Antichrist, “This is the finger of God.” But Antichrist's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the Lord had said..
    The Second Coming
    BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
    Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.
    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again; but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

    Actually going to respectfully disagree there. Extra size in the mid-region actually helps with vocal support and lung capacity. In other words, not being skinny actually can help your voice, and Steve's is certainly very good.

    "But I'm warning you, don't ever do
    Those crazy, messed-up things that you do
    If you ever do
    I promise you, I'll be the first to crucify you
    Now it's time to prove that you've come back here to rebuild"
    This was a song that I suspected might be inspired by me. Trust me I was clueless in HighSchool. In the 90s I was not thinking peeping tom naked pictures or anything like that. By the late 90s I thought there might be some chatting on the internet about me. THAT'S IT!
    AWESOME SONG

    • @feralferrari2516

      The video contrasts mundane routine (keeping things orderly) amid a relationship’s crisis that’s reaching critical mass. Steve Page’s repetitive lines reflect his pondering just how to deal with her courting disaster, while knowing the crazy things she does. She’s great with her snide glances but halting hesitation not to drive off after he steams & walks past: great brooding stuff here! 🤩👍

  • @ErinHeartpenny
    @ErinHeartpenny Před 16 lety +1

    you have to wonder about the context of the video...the premise is that maybe under social conditions the couple are getting back together so that they can be the same as their neighbours and therefore socially 'happy', does this make sense? school ruined films for me, lol
