A Perfect Circle - Thirteenth Step
The song 'pet' is quite possibly the best song I've heard in years. Check out the lyrics...is it sign of the times?
"oh precious son, step away from the window
go back to sleeplay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman comecounting bodies like sheep
to the rhythm of the war drumpay no mind to the rabble
pay no mind to the rabblehead down, go to sleep
to the rhythm of the war drumshey, don't mind what the other voices say
they don't care about you, well I do, well I do
safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
see, they don't give a fuck about you, like i do.just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
go back to sleep
go back to sleeplay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
count the bodies like sheep
to the rhythm of the war drumspay no mind to the rabble
pay no mind to the rabblehead down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums
I'll be the one to protect you from
your enemies and all your demonsI'll be the one to protect you from
a will to survive and a voice of reasonI'll be the one to protect you from
your enemies and your choices
they're one in the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourselfswayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drumthe boogeymen are coming
the boogeymen are comingkeep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drum
stay with me
safe and ignorant
just stay with me
hold you and protect you from the other one
the evil ones
go back to
sleep
