NeutralThunder12: Top 10 Mewithoutyou Lyrics/lines

NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	some of my favorite songs lyrically from the band, but not my actual favorite songs. Most here are from my lyrically favorite album of all time, A to B Life, with a few from Catch For Us the Foxes, Brother Sister and even one from their newest record. Enjoy the few fans of the band.
BigHans 09.22.10	these guys are something else thats for sure. Cant decide whether I really like them or not. I know that I dont dislike it.
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	cool to see "son of a widow" on here. I wouldn't have put so many songs from a-->b life on here but oh well!
Foxhound 09.22.10	pos
LegendofPittman 09.22.10	Aaron Weiss is probably my favorite lyricist. Dude is smart.
VicariousIntent 09.22.10	Love this list. I would have included stuff from Wolf Am I(And Shadow), Bullet To Binary and maybe The Lightness And The Rain. Still a great list.
Jonnyborg 09.22.10	I really love that line from silencer. there's also this part from the end of C-minor: she came back for the oats but she brought along a "friend"/the harder the rain,/the lower the flowers in the garden bend/I'd rather never talk again/than to continue to pretend/that this never ends It's no so much the lyrics but the delivery. holy crap.
WeepingBanana 09.22.10	dryness and the rain... come on a fish swims in the sea while the sea is in a certain sense contained within the fish aww what am i to think when all the writings of 1000 life times can not explain if all the forest trees were pens and all the oceans ink i just got chills typing that
Slum 09.22.10	My list would be much different but these lyrics are great nonetheless. Can't expect anything below fantastic from mwY though.
NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	yeah guys, C Minor is awesome as well. Wolf am I was actually really close to making the list by the way.
RippingCorpse2 09.22.10	do these guys worship Satan?
NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	no, actually, quite the opposite. Most of their lyrics, especially on Brother Sister are religiously charged, while their newest focuses on famous tales and legends from the past. A to B Life and Catch For Us The Foxes also have religious themes but the awesomeness of the lyrics on both those records really comes from the metaphors
RippingCorpse2 09.22.10	oh. Fail then.
RippingCorpse 09.22.10	cant have music without satan
NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	i guess so
PandaNuts 09.22.10	Movement & Repose.
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	I read an article about mwY that said they once got an a little back and forth with another christian band that resulted in aaron weiss getting menstration blood from a girl and throwing it in the face of the guitarist of the other band. that sounds pretty devilish to me.
NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	holy shit thats weird still love him though
theEasterbunny 09.22.10	that is pretty sick where did you hear that?
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	it was an article about mwY in some philidelphia magazine. dnt remember which tho.
WeepingBanana 09.22.10	lol is you trollin?
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	me? no let me see if i can find the link for you lazy assholes ; - )
WeepingBanana 09.22.10	damn son. that's hillarious
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	http://www.philadelphiaweekly.com/news-and-opinion/cover-story/38471569.html i'm pretty sure this is it.
americanmusicmachine 09.22.10	"Aaron Weiss has been known to be very, very naughty. In fact, the whole band has. Once, as a prank, another Christian band biblically plagued the mewithoutYou tour bus with crickets, fish and mice bought from a pet store. A mewithoutYou acolyte and seminary student named Nikki Kleinberg--then working as cook and lighting engineer--retaliated by throwing a cup of "menstrual piss" in the face of the other band's tour manger. Then there was the incident when the band doused a dead squirrel with lighter fuel and tossed it--spewing smoke and sparks--into the disbelieving faces of yet another Christian band. Memories are hazy, but it seems pretty certain Aaron was the dead squirrel tosser." eh i was a lil' wrong about the details but anyway still funny
WeepingBanana 09.22.10	HAHAA i so did not expect that

NeutralThunder12 09.22.10	haha yeah as obnoxious as that is it is brilliant in its own twisted way
BroFro 09.23.10	9 should be 1. also The Soviet -- "Turn your ear, musician, to silence because they only come out when it's quiet, their tails brushing over your eyelids - wake up, sleeper, and rise from the dead! Or the fur that they shed will cover your bed in a delicate orange-ish cinnamon red."
NeutralThunder12 09.23.10	soviet is great. O Porcupine is one o my favorite mwy songs but not lyrically top 10
Eko 09.23.10	...and if You ever do come near, I'll hold up high a mirror, Lord I could never show you anything as beautiful as You.
tombits 09.23.10	"Nice and Blue, Pt. 2" guys, come on. then I saw a mountain and I saw a city steadily sinking but suspiciously calm it wasn't an end, it wasn't a beginning but a ceaseless stumbling on there, strapped like a watch on my wrist that's finished with gold but can't tell the time was all or what little pleasure exists seductively sold and uselessly mine
SoapySoap 09.23.10	4 is the shit.
Slum 09.23.10	@tombits That's one of my favorite moments of their entire discography

Transient 04.23.11	Silencer is the best fucking song ever.
Thane 04.23.11	She was graceful and green as a stem, but I walk heavy on delicate ground. Oh, there I go showing off again. Self-impressed by how well I can put myself down... and there I go again, to the next further removed level of that same exact feigned humility, and this for me goes on and on to the point of nausea Shadow am I! Like a suspicion that's never confirmed but it's never denied Wolf am I! No, "shadow" I think is better, cus' I'm not something, more like the absence of something So Shadow am I! i love this. the delivery is just amazing. good list man.
