    Lyrics:
    There was light before the rain began
    And there was hope behind the suffering joke
    Lies come, lies they go, even the sun is tired
    Under the surfaces, there is a benevolent drone
    Do you feel it?
    So brutal when the words are on
    The tip of your tongue
    So strange when your tired eyes won't
    Shut your brain down
    Hold back the melancholy
    Hold back the fear
    Darling, it's a crime
    Hold back the fear
    Hold back the melancholy
    It's a crime
    Sometimes I can taste my death like a candy bar
    So sweet and complete, as infinity takes me
    but before that
    I create to keep that dog at my bearable door
    I'm a hologram in my egocentric universe, oh
    You're alive but you know that the wire
    Under you is bending
    And the truth is only telling you to be
    Immune to everything
    Hold back the melancholy
    Hold back the fear
    Darling, it's a crime
    Hold back the fear
    Hold back the melancholy
    It's a crime
    Hold back the fear
    Hold back the darkness
    Hold back the melancholy
    It's a crime

    @donnarynn 10 років тому +72

    If only I could describe the feeling I get when I listen to this song... The closest I can get is that it takes lyrical and musical form the hole in me that never fills...and the noise in my head that never lets me rest.

  • @dante.nathanael
    @dante.nathanael 8 років тому +44

    Much love to you, my beautiful aphrodisiac Chris...

  • @Curanderasworld
    @Curanderasworld 11 років тому +23

    This video is brilliant psychological art! I recognize that Janine symbolizes the mind and Chris the inner self / consciousness. Chris sitting in the water - consciousness is like an iceberg.
    You see how the mind (Janine) during the course of the video will put to rest - and dies. Water symbolizes emotions. We see the relationship between self and the mind (Chris and Janine)
    This video and song is a masterpiece. You can read so much truth out of it!

    There was light before
    The rain began,
    And there was hope
    Behind the suffering joke.
    Lies come,
    Lies they go.
    Even the sun is tired.
    Under the surfaces,
    There is a benevolent drone.
    Do you feel it?
    So brutal when the words are on
    The tip of your tongue,
    So strange when your tired eyes won't
    Shut your brain down.
    Hold back the melancholy,
    Hold back the fear, darling,
    It's a crime.
    Hold back the fear.
    Hold back the melancholy,
    It's a crime.
    Sometimes I can taste my death
    Like a candy bar.
    So sweet and complete
    As infinity takes me
    This fool's end.
    I create to keep that dog in my bearable door.
    I made hologram
    In my egocentric universe of...
    You're alive,
    But you know that the wire
    Under you is bending.
    And the truth is always telling you to be
    Immune to everything.
    Hold back the melancholy,
    Hold back the fear, darling.
    It's a crime.
    Hold back the fear.
    hold back the melancholy,
    It's a crime.
    Hold back the fear.
    Hold back the darkness.
    Hold back the melancholy.
    Hold back the melancholy,
    It's a crime.

    @ProxyVoiid 7 років тому +5

    tbh, when Chris took this video down a few days ago I was very upset and freaked out. This is the only song that calms me when everything is falling apart, when I mentally cannot handle the switches of my sporadic mind. I'm very grateful this song is back up 💚

  • @user-bs7tv4jn9c

  • @HookersFancyMe

    If I were a therapist I would prescribe this song to anyone with anxiety, over actual meds any day. At least over dosing on music won't kill you.
    " Quiet the mind." Simply calm down and don't worry too much. I say that to anyone.

    • @thehouse4962
      @thehouse4962 9 років тому +9

      I have anxiety. Anytime I am anxious I listen to Chris' music. It does wonders. He is, as a artist my self, a muse.

    • @HookersFancyMe
      @HookersFancyMe 9 років тому +6

      I think it was interesting listening to his own input of this song. I recall him saying that it's a message to himself. He's had insomnia for years, is often stressed, and not to mention anxiety himself. It's a good message to anyone with nerve or any kind of other problems.

  • @keytothecage
    @keytothecage 8 років тому +20

    I haven't listened to anything of his work beside the first two albums, but I think this is going to be the song that grips me and makes me dive further into it.
    Also, not to sound shallow, but I love both of his outfits here, especially the green ensemble.

    • @princecookie300
      @princecookie300 8 років тому

      Not too shallow. Fascinated by what that man wears as well, ahah.

  • @francesjiannalone4980

    The video is perfect. The lifelong daily struggle to shut up our screaming , talking, repetitive minds. And when you can finally meditate and quiet your mind.... you might feel some peace.

    Both this song and Unified Field are amazing and dreamy. Not to mention refreshing. They have me more excited about IAMX than i have been since i first discovered them. Its not that Volatile Times wasnt good, its just that it was more or less the same ole same ole. This new album will be a rejuvination for Corner.

  • @RikkiSixx
    @RikkiSixx 11 років тому

    i am at work and have been listening to this song over and over for almost ten hours and i havent gotten sick of it yet. this is how i feel about every iamx song ever. i dont know how chris does it or how hes not more popular but fuck me if im not completely in love with his every lyric and every note. perfection.

    DAY 4: A song that calms you down
    SONG: Quiet the Mind
    I would recommend anything by Chris Corner to someone who just needs some music that would calm them down. This song aswell as "Unified Field" are the songs I listen to when I need to calm myself down

    Christmas has never been about Jesus to me, even since I was a child, raised "Christian." It's always been a time to be with those you hold dear, if you can. I think in this day in age, it's closer to its winter solstice roots than ever...
