pain of salvation'un 2000 çıkışlı the perfect element albümünden hoş bir şarkı.
sözleri:
she walks these empty streets alone
looking for something they call "home"
hoping to find some peace of mind
sometimes we need to walk alone
she is set on running away
though her mom was yelling she must stay
a wind beaten bird for reasons unheard
sometimes it is best to run away
so fly away, fly away, fly away
don't be afraid, don't hesitate, fly away
some wear their bruises on their skin
others hide their scars deep within
she has a wound close to her womb
blames herself for letting it in
so fly away, fly away, fly away
don't be afraid, don't hesitate, fly away
but she's afraid, she's afraid, she's afraid
anyway
see those eyes, see those eyes, see those eyes
hate and lies, a fire that slowly dies
but she will fly, she will fly, she will fly
before it dies
sometimes the hands that feed
must feed a mind with a sick need
and the hands that clutch can be
the same hands that touch too much
eyes that hungrily stare
read in an access that's not there
while eyes close to hide tears
or look away in fear
run away!
passing the open stores
hiding her dirty sores
seeking asylum among freaks and whores
what wouldn't she give to be in a society
not learning the eyes to be closed but to see
now she bites the words
"never"
she kicks the ground
"never"
swallows her tears
"never will i go back"
she hits the walls
"leave me!"
scratches herself
"leave me!"
begs to all gods
"rip me from this sick flesh!"
"i will always be there"
"no!"
she holds her ears
"you know that i love you"
pretends that she doesn't hear
"we're in this together"
"we share the same skin"
panic in his voice now
"free us from sin"
"tell me that you love me"
this is the end
"i know that you do"
of her way
never ever again
follow me down
"god forgive this hunger"
"please mommy see"
"never tell a soul"
"is it me?"
a child will love its parents
will follow them down
she swears to the pavement's heart of stone
that these city lights will be her home
but still as they burn she will return
back to the adults. . . of her home.
so you thought you might like to,
go to the show.
to feel the warm thrill of confusion,
that space cadet glow.
tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
ıs this not what you expected to see?
ıf you wanna find out whats behind these cold eyes,
youll just have to blow your way through this disguise.
şeklindedir sözleri.
agent orange ın girdiği sözler üzerine edit: zat-ı alimin yazdığı versiyon in the flesh olup agent orange ınki in the flesh? tir.
bu güzide konsept albümün en bi nefis dikotomisidir aynı zamanda, in the flesh ve in the flesh? olarak.
pink floyd konserlerinin aşırı kalabalığı, seyirci ile grubun iletişiminin gitgide imkansız hale gelmesi roger waters'ın kafasında duvar olgusu şekillendirirken film 1977 yılı animals turnesinde montreal konserinde kopar. kayıtlardan da dinlenebileceği üzere pigs on the wing'i arkalardan atılan bir sürü maytap ve fişek yüzünden iki kere kesmek zorunda kalan roger waters en sonunda sahneden iner ve ön sıradaki izleyicilerden birine tükürür.
roger waters bu olayı yaşadıkları izolasyonun ortaya çıkardığı faşist bir düşüncenin sonucu gibi görür ve the wall'da bunu yansıtmaya çalışır. aldığı ilaçlarla ayağa kalkan pink, konsere giderken limuzinde bir anda değişime uğrar ve faşist liderleri çağrıştıran bir görünüme bürünür. artık sahnenin efendisi odur. tipini beğenmediği, spot ışığın altındaki adamı, yahudiye benziyor diye bir başkasını, joint içen birini korumalarına aldırtır ve onları duvara dizdirir..
..if i had my way, i'd have all of you shot..
(ulan elimde olsa var ya alayınızı ipe dizerdim ama neyse)
kesinlikle direk dinlenmeyip ilk olarak master of ceremonies ı açıp havaya girilmelidir. bir dakkalık açılış dan sonra the wall en iyi parçalarından in the flesh kendini göstermeli...
