Hello!
Link to video here with description below: • THE COST feat SERJ TAN...
Thank you so much for watching! The Cost featuring the one and only Serj was amazing! Definitely enjoyed this song, and as always, going to support these guys! Definitely let me know what you think in the comments! Have a great day, and I will see you in the next one!
LYRICS:
It's a mistake to move forward
and a mistake to move back
A mistake to move left
and a mistake to move right
It's a mistake to move forward
and a mistake to move back
A mistake, a snake a snake a snake...
Dream tonight
We only see when the sky’s big & bright
Go to the place where they meet
stay out of sight
Deep in a hole but we’re
roaming in our sleep
loaded to the teeth
Cold and dark
The thunder ripping
the black sky apart
Nowhere to run till they blow
destroy the stars
to liberate our homeland
stay til we die.
Born again a son,
Together for the day
Mourn again a sun
To want a better way
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights
Tape the wound
The circling of the flies
fills the room
Needed to wait for the day
they’ll be here soon
We crawl around where the
Bullets screaming past
try to get out
Alive and well
Follow the order and climb
into hell
The shrill demented choirs
of wailing shells
To liberate our homeland,
Stay til we die
Born again a son,
Together for the day
Mourn again a sun
To want a better way
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights
Out on the broken land
Our time to kill again
marching through hell & sand
When will we see the end?
Out on the promised land
Born and gone again
Does tonight ever end?
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights
Lie, lie in her eyes
Morning lights.

Song is not about pleasing people, the song is for a fund raiser to save children in parts of the world where there's war, this song is about how people in america is aware of all the suffering of the children who are going through horrible things and all this is blocked due to the ''Pop culture'', this is why this video was made this way, you see people having fun and then in contrast people suffering in war zones. So it's a song to create awareness on saving children.

I get that. I wasn't trying to take away from their point of why they wrote the song, but merely giving a perspective of mine about the specific lyrics of "it is a mistake to move forward...", and that part wasn't me saying that was the entire reason for the song either. I can understand why someone would think that because I mainly talked about "people pleasing" and my perspective of it after the music video ends for most of the ending of this video, so I am sorry if that is what was given out, and I appreciate you sharing this.
I am happy that they did a fundraiser for this, and that they are wanting to get this more out there for people to be more aware. Having family and friends in military that were deployed throughout everywhere, my wife went and assisted with the Syrian refugee crisis back in 2016, I am very much aware of how privilege it is to be born in the US versus more war-torn countries. Not to plug another song on this one, but my interpretation of Body Bag by I Prevail is very much that (Not to take away from the Band's meaning of it). I have known people that would cry and get upset over getting a BMW than a Mercedes, and I would always have the thought of that shouldn't be a thing to remotely cry about/even be considered a struggle because there are people that have to walk everywhere that would want a vehicle, or even a bike, to get around (just an example, I know there are worst comparisons). So again, thank you for sharing! I always appreciate it! :)

Legendary song. It will remain in the history of music

[@nancysewell6670]

They've put out 3 songs that have very different vibes, but each stellar. Their sound is great with a wonderful raw integrity. Wow! I believe all the proceeds of this song are going to a charity for children. Kudos!

[@panicmanicyt]

Yeah, these guys are definitely on my watch list, especially with 3 very different songs, but I am so excited for sure!

[@Dukkha-Bhavana]

'La ilaha' in chorus I think no coincidence.
Great song. It has everything that was lacking from Serj's last solo album.

[@panicmanicyt]

I agree. I actually only have heard Serj's first solo album, Elect The Dead, and I didn't know he had that much music separate from SOAD, so I may have to go back and listen to some of his stuff again to compare! Thank you for your comment!

[@EnigmaMachine7.62]

👏 "very Dream Theater" i thought the same loved that part!!

[@badm0t0rf1nger]

I enjoy Peter & Serj's interplaying vocals thru this one. Not many new bands can recruit Serj Tankian for their 3rd single eh?! LOL
I'm looking forward to buying the album when it appears. :)

[@panicmanicyt]

Yeah I completely agree! This kind of gives me an understanding of how much El Estepario Siberiano and his band has grown. Seeing his socials of him hanging out with Tre Cool from Green Day, playing with 30 Seconds to Mars, at this point, it is going to be soo cool to see who else they get, and I am so excited for when they release more music! Thank you for your comment!
