You
Eater Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Make it through the day
Talk and dissipate
Think ahead
Make them laugh
Drown the noise away
Something else to say
On your own
Best of all
Make them hearts
Show them love
Watch them grow
It's what you are
What you are
What you are
Piling mounds of darkness
In hope that it will bloom
You can stay inside it
But only if you choose
Anytime
Any day
Show your friends
Start again
You will find
It's what you are
What you are
What you are




What you are
What you are

As great as The Album is it would have been interesting to have heard it mixed like this 45 version.

The 1st wave punks sold out really quickly. That was what attracted me to punk, was the street-level, primal sound. It's the only way to do rock and roll imo. I generally only like the debut releases, and the 45 rpm versions. One particularly embarrassing example of this syndrome was the way The Lurkers' singles were the kind of rock I'd die for, but then their later debut LP sounded like Boston. Even the cover sleeve was all lame and pastel- like, and they looked really neutral and mainstreamish. That used to anger me, but not as angry as I'd be with 99.9% of punk fans aside from me, who wouldn't even notice. I mean, wt*, you know.

Oare in afara de tine, cati isi mai amintesc de toate aceste formatii vechi ? :)

Jesus fucking christ i didn’t know Eater was so unheard of can’t even find tabs of this shit

@kyle krebs Andy Blade the singer and writer and Brian Chevett the guitarist of Eater went to my school. The year above me. I knew them well. I heard Outside View and You the day they came out. Exciting times even though I was a hippie and didn’t like punk music. Anyway, all their songs are basic 3 or 4 chords at most and don’t require any music theory.

@Big Sky thank you i’m self taught and new at learning guitar and bass and shit so i’m kinda retarted when it actually comes to real chords and music theory

Big Sky

It’s a very easy song to play. Chords E,A and D. You don’t need tabs.
