Last Saturday I talked
to you about two songs with similar lyrics and as I promised, today
we continue with another couple of songs. Now dear Soulmates, we go
back in time to the beginning of our beloved band to talk about the
demos of ๐ฏ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐
๐๐๐๐ ๐ฐ๐ธ (1994) and
๐ญ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
(1995).

Tonight
Touch me when our passion's through
That's right
They're all dead I'd hate to miss you
Feeling so much older
Now my body's colder
Tonight
You crush me like I was a boulder
It takes two to piss in faces
Keeps alive but leaves no traces
Trigger shoots like violent chases
In this depth is my oasis
Hang on to your IQ
Hang on to your ID
Hang on to your IQ
And please hang on to me
Tonight
Don't speak my name
Tonight
Let's break the rules of this boring
game
Some key morning
And I'll get used to slashing back and
choking
Tonight
When you said you loved me you were
joking
It takes two to piss in faces
Keeps alive but leaves no traces
Trigger shoots like violent chases
In this depth is my oasis
Hang on to your IQ
Hang on to your ID
Hang on to your IQ
And please hang on to me
Careful not to give your favors
To the lonely housewife neighbors
I had one who one sent me her heart
In a tupperware container
Don't you dare touch my stash
And give me cigarette ash
Nothing tastes as sweet as incest
In this empire of the senses
Singing songs not meant to be sung
Beating like my bleeding heart
Careless slipping of the tongue on
Just another private part
Rabid search for stoned affection
Fights the lust that breeds infection
Meet me at the intersection
Don't forget your fuel injection

๐นA year later, in 1995, the
band recorded the ๐ญ๐๐๐๐
๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
demo with ๐น๐๐๐๐๐
๐บ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
on drums. The song has a very particular structure and arrangements.
It can be noticed that from the beginning the band had its own style
and that unique sound that characterizes them and we love so much. As
for the lyrics, they were left with the last verse of the ๐ฏ๐๐๐
๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐
๐ฐ๐ธ demo, although with a few lines less and some
different words. The ๐ญ๐๐๐๐
๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
demo was officially released on the ๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐จ๐๐๐๐ single in 1996 and
later on the 10๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐ช๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐ฌ๐
๐๐๐๐๐ of
๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐'s
self-titled debut album in 2006. I know many fans of the band loves
this song -I'm also one of them-, so let's listen this awesome jewel!

He tries to embrace her
she wants him to race her
he needs a laser to get it through her
skull
means and lies and hatreds
tears that fall in sequence
cold caress
imprints
conversation growing dull
Says he's a poet
lousy protozoan
and he kisses ass for free
I took a vow of silence
when he tries to talk to me
I just turn on the tv
He tries to impress her, mentally
undress her
it takes more to possess her
but in his pocket lies a hole
he's got a thousand talents
charisma by the bagful
aristocratic parents
a rebel with a heart of gold
Says he's a poet
this time he's gonna blow it
'cause he's dancing with his ego
I took a vow of silence
when he reads his work to me
I swallow words like a placebo
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic
gets him in a panic
he's wasting time
'cause everybody is a star in his eyes
Careful not to give your favours
to your lonesome f*cked-up neighbours
I had one who sent me her heart
in a tupperware container
all the movies in my head
they flicker with my bleeding heart
a careless slipping of the tongue
on just another private part
Blatant search for
stoned affection
fights the rust that
breeds infection
meet me at the
intersection
don't forget your
fuel injection
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic
gets him in a panic
he's wasting time
'cause everybody is a star
in his eyes
You think this love is bona fide
you're being taken for a ride
wrap your lip around your head
and slowly blow yourself away.
