"Give me 46, give me 45"

The Bloat.


Dont know why exactly. It's nothing special to read or anything and what does it even mean?? It's just the delivery and how it fits within the song that i love and always have to sing along when i hear it. Actually the whole darn song is a sing along must!

beat its shape in my hand

pounded air patterns
convey messages

you put this on me
I speak my mind
It's sorta funny
I'm violent with the hands in my head
They kinda move
But movin' gets me nowhere
Now you can all decide
And you can tell your lies
But who you call your friends
And what you think is cold
It's the nature of my soul
Sorry man,
I ain't gonna be told...

Let it all be

Singled out for the fire you little tangy
Make a mind make a friend give it up toenail
Too old for that buy me a big one
To say what's real your not the boss of me
Meet my old man he's just a funny
He makes more than you will take it away
I've got the only wisdom we're still friends
In time it will all be over it will be good
But I'm old and I'm getting older knew i would
Later days finally coming on to take me away
Little place near the holy one and let's run

Probably my number one song to do sprints to because of the fast and slow pacing. Love that gong. If the gong in that song can count as a lyric then that's my all time fav.
