    Lyrics:
    I loved you in the sunshine
    You chase the moon with a spear
    Tardy afternoons in utopia
    Kiss an ugly turtle and make it cry
    Sever the head of cornucopia
    We rape the earth and don't know why it strikes
    Do you believe in stormy weather, stormy weather
    Hurricanes play musical chairs with homes and chattel
    The whirling dervish tornadoes reek all disaster
    Seaside tsunamis give and take, what's the matter?
    I loved you in the sunshine
    You chase the moon with a spear
    I pray that you will be all mine
    You foam at the mouth and disappear
    Sever the head of cornucopia
    We fuck the earth and don't know why it cries
    Do you believe in stormy weather, stormy weather
    Hurricanes play musical chairs with homes and chattel
    The whirling dervish tornadoes reep all disaster
    Seaside tsunamis give and take, what's the matter?
    I loved you in the sunshine
    You chase the moon with a spear
    I pray that you will be all mine
    You foam at the mouth and disappear
    We broke our pact
    And away we go to another place
    Home, where we call home
    Why do we disfigure all the things that are so beautiful inside?
    Where we compose the calamities for all to abide
    Microcosm, macrocosm are the same
    What a lame game
    Don't you think we're extraordinary?
    Believing and seeing
    Realizing the imaginary
    Don't you? Don't you?
    Yes, I think we're extraordinary
    Being and living
    Yes, I think we ought to marry
    We broke our pact
    And away we go to another place
    I loved you in the sunshine
    You chase the moon with a spear
    I pray that you will be all mine
    You foam at the mouth and disappear

    A lot of Serj songs give me goose bumps when I listen to them. This one is no different. Listening to his music makes me feel one with the world and nature. The messages sent by his music are incredibly important, and if more people thought like this, we might even be able to fix the world.

  • @artemisworshiper2010
    @artemisworshiper2010 11 років тому +12

    "Why do we disfigure all the things that are so beautiful inside?" really hit me. It doesn't only applies to nature, but also with persons. People tend to make miserable people who are different, but that could be beautiful inside. Many attractive persons tend to be cruel/mean on the inside.

    Serj,
    You never fail to amaze me with your lyrics. The environment and the Earth are my one true passion and I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you respect Mother Earth as much as I do, and also that you spread the message to everyone through your lyrics. We as a species need to clean up our one and only Earth and not treat it like crap, and your music helps to spread that message I think.
    You are such an inspiration to me and I love your music. Keep being awesome :) Thank you.

    I'm right there with him. I have depression issues and have had them for over 15 years. I'm just saying that sometimes it actually makes me feel good to see that someone is willing to take a stand and not let things get buried. That's just in my case, though. Everyone is different and takes things differently. Serj is one of the people that doesn't want to let things get by everyone. That's why I like his music.

    Don't attack me SOAD fans. I like his music better when he isn't a part of SOAD

      I think Serj just stayed awesome after SOAD broke, but he was still awesome back then. Just with awesome guitar.

      Serj is a masterpiece and System of A Down altogether is amazing.

      TheUmbrellaCorpX7 If only they could have kept it together. Serj's music isn't nearly as direct as Daron's, but Daron can't write lyrics as poetic as Serj. Dictator would have been pretty much perfect with both talents at the helm.

    Serj Tankian is the only man on earth capable of making me feel guilty for more than 10 seconds about not caring at all about this planet.
