Still one of my favorite songs to date. It gives me chills how smooth and yet manacing it sounds throughout, before rising to a cacophony for the outro
Lyrics : All you great men of power, you who boast of your feats Politicians and entrepreneurs Can you safeguard your breath in the night while you sleep? Keep your heart beating steady and sure? As you lie in your bed, does the thought haunt your head That you're really rather small? If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all All you champions of science and rulers of men Can you summon the sun from its sleep? Does the earth seek your counsel on how fast to spin? Can you shut up the gates of the deep? Don't you know that all things hang, as if by a string O'er the darkness, poised to fall? If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all All you big shots that swagger and stride with conceit Did you devise how your frame would be formed? If you'd be raised in a palace or live out in the streets? Did you choose the place or the hour you'd be born? Tell me what can you claim? Not a thing, not your name Tell me if you can recall Just one thing not a gift in this life Can you hear what's been said? Can you see now that everything's grace after all? If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all
I have sung this song to my daughters since the day my first girl was born. It is contempt and pain. But also truth and hope. This album is different, but is the best of Thrice.
@@jamesdickerson8645 well done sir 👍😅 but.....cmooonn mannn u know u can't be "holy fuckin" anymore, especially if people don't have souls to do it with 😂😂 ....guess we all gotta do.......🥁.....a little soul searching! 😏🕺🤸♂️🏆 (Sidenote: I only felt nothing for the last 1 minute and 43 seconds, does that mean I have like...uhhh a 7% ish soul? 🤔😏🤭 Sweet!)
I've been working on death metal vocals for about 8 years now, I've been trying to learn some singing as beautiful as this and I gotta say it's kicking my ass 😂 it takes some serious talent to pull this kinda voice from your core, I'll keep working on it but mad respect to these guys they're something else
Lyrics are true. Be a free spirit. Don't let this world control you. Every man an women, is losing. This world, this as its sits. We're on repeat. Thanks, I've been listening to this album, and u thrice. over the years. This song still sticks to this modern day. Consequences and sufferings, if we don't wake up and rrlize the truth.
Feels like the world will always be asleep... Songs like this should be super popular instead of the stupid promoted stuff. But, the consequences of short-sightedness/arrogance/selfishness, brainwashing + shallowness, etc. (generally, of just not using your brain right), are countless.
@@drtubbs530 tbh I've thought about this a bit more. Many ppl choose to listen to certain kinds of artists because they want to belong, and not because they truly love the sound and lyrics. It doesn't matter if one prefers mainstream stuff or underground, if they are being (insecure) posers they're just that. Hopefully most ppl truly connect with their favorite music tho. Different personalities choose different stuff (lyrical content too), I guess, and judging one only by the music they listen to is sort of a dick move, usually. Not everyone has a passion for searching music thoroughly to find what suits them the most for real, too. They just cling to the easiest-to-be-found shit they like and roll with it... It is quite shallow but hey.
Thrice and Dustin have always been so talented and great they belong on the radio they belong in stardom not this middle ground of great artist that don’t get the recognition they deserve
That song is still so good and so actual! If you want to listen to an awesome cover of this song : soundcloud.com/hugo-goyet/cover-thrice-beggars-acoustic
@@beezybeez7231 just checked both songs out, the music is fantastic, they almost sound like they're trying to be thrice though lol and I'm not impressed by the vocalist at all... not trying to be negative, just being honest... I appreciate the recommendation though..

Literaly the most haunting song. Still gives me goosebumps.
Lyrics :
All you great men of power, you who boast of your feats
Politicians and entrepreneurs
Can you safeguard your breath in the night while you sleep?
Keep your heart beating steady and sure?
As you lie in your bed, does the thought haunt your head
That you're really rather small?
If there's one thing I know in this life
We are beggars all
All you champions of science and rulers of men
Can you summon the sun from its sleep?
Does the earth seek your counsel on how fast to spin?
Can you shut up the gates of the deep?
Don't you know that all things hang, as if by a string
O'er the darkness, poised to fall?
If there's one thing I know in this life
We are beggars all
All you big shots that swagger and stride with conceit
Did you devise how your frame would be formed?
If you'd be raised in a palace or live out in the streets?
Did you choose the place or the hour you'd be born?
Tell me what can you claim?
Not a thing, not your name
Tell me if you can recall
Just one thing not a gift in this life
Can you hear what's been said?
Can you see now that everything's grace after all?
If there's one thing I know in this life
We are beggars all
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🎸🤘

Raising them right❤
Such a powerful and menacing outro. If you feel nothing listening to the last two minutes, you've got no soul.
The closing door really sent chills down my spine.

I love old thrice songs.

This drummer must be the coolest guy in the world!
I wish Riley was my dad. Not daddy, but dad. Like I'd love to catch baseball with him and maybe learn some life lessons.

Its just not supposed to happen on an album closer.
Rules are rules. Unless its Knights of Cydonia by Muse. Or something like that.
3:30 and on.
Hola mi amoe :3
@britishGuy give this a listen. It’s a good tune, but better lyrics to ponder.
