Remember I'll always love you
As a I tear your fucking throat away
It will end no other way."


"So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical,
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable.
Just let the light touch you
And let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason ...
before we pine away."


"So good to see you once again
I thought that you were hiding from me.
And you thought that I had run away.
Chasing a trail of smoke and reason."


"Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance,
Burden of proof tossed upon the believers.
You were [the / my] witness, my eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one."


The end of Rosetta Stoned comes after those 4, IMO.
Exactly! There's a couple others, but those four aree def what I would have said!

I haven't read this thread before and I just read it from start to finish. Gave me goosebumps, lump in my throat, the works. How the fuck can just thinking about Tool do that to you. It's amazing. All these parts are incredible, I'm not even going to single one out. Fucking awesome like.

alright, mostly repeats of what have been said.

try starting from the beginning

"all i know, all i believe...are crumbling images..."

"life feeds on life...."

"i have found some kind of temporary sanity"

the last verse in 42 and 2

"you claimed all this time, that you would die for me. ...to nail up the next full martyr"

"with out the skin, beneath the storm....I dont mind"

"all you read....fatass dirty dollar"

"under a dead ohio sky....awake and heading home"

"But i'd trade it all, for just a little peace of mind"

"cuz im prayin for rain,.....flush it all away"

all of "pushit" live

"give away the stone....let go"

"i still may *sigh*...i still may ....(all the way through) I must keep reminding my self of this:

"i embrace my desire .....keep going"

"leave behind this place....before we pine away"

"if i could id wish it all away, if i thought tomorrow, they'd take you away"

"you are the only one who can hold your head up high....give me my wings"

**"Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.
Such a heavy burden now to be the One
Born to bear and read you all the details of our ending,
To write it down for all the world to see.

But I forgot my pen
Shit the bed again ...
Typical."**

"Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
Fight over your lie, over blood, over anything
Fight over love, over sun, over nothing
Fight till they die,
(Ahhh!) over what? for their ending"

You know, if you are the sort of person who periodically changes their msn name to great song quotes then THIS is the place to come!
