Birds
Pilori Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see in your eyes that you have to leave me, my friend
You would like to stay, but you can't

What a beautiful time we had together, my friend
Full of sun and birds flying through the air

But everything has to end one day, my friend
I will miss you, but you are not far away
You will be like those birds in the air, my friend
And sing me a song full of sweet memories

And by the end of the night it will take me away, my friend
To your world full of joy and love and sweetness

Let us fly away like birds in the sun, my friend
To a life so bright and full of hope

What a beautiful time we had together, my friend
Now our memories are flying through the air
Let us fly away like birds in the sun, my friend
To a life so bright and full of hope




But everything has to end one day, my friend
Now our memories are flying through the air

lyrics
"I’m devastated but the last example you should use to feed it. 
And this war of words only keeps a good place in my worst headaches. 
Please forget me. 
Relieved and happy, you can dig a deep grave and drag me along my pride. 
And I’d better grit my teeth. 
I’m wrong, I know. 
One more lesson learned. 
Bastard, fucking bastard. 
And in the back of my head 
I’m killing all the judges like you, 
for the glory of assuming my crime. 
I’m burning the ignorance of you. 
My silence equals my rancor but I’m fine. 
And for one time in your life, you owe me an explanation: 
Why are you putting me down when you had tons of better solutions? 
A rope, a razor, a gun, a cancer, the poison, the fire, the fall. 
One more conversation, one more wound, one more war. 
A war for every mistake made and for the comfort of all you’ll be the genius."

I'm 42 years old and I still have the passion for aggressive music.

I as well. In age and in spirit.

@johngaston308

Same......

@TR-nk3jf

It's the world we live in that requires it.

@alexanderhaselbacher3128

And now you have a reason too. I'm 46, I know.

@gallespaul

Saw them opening for The Chariot. They were intense!

@drumsno

The emotion in this music is incredible!

@luisfilipedeftones

É bom por alguns momentos, mas imagina um som de 1h ouvindo isso, é desordenado, tem muito energia mal concentrada. Cliff Burton já ensinou, melodia.

@kemichels

I had never heard of them before I saw them live with Loma Prieta, and my jaw literally dropped. Was absolutely blown away and now am just obsessed.

@down1tone

1:47 sounds like the bass overdrive went super saiyan!
