The Sound of Animals Fighting - The Ocean and the Sun

There’s a line, there’s a dozen more
Wrapping in a room, your country doors
There’s a man, he’s holding a pitcher of water
Follow him into the house,

Every age has said, we will come, we’ll come again
You will never get, up as close, as you expect
This house is a holy place, you don’t ever have to leave
Every age has said, we will call, we’ll come again

And when they say,
(oh yes, they please don’t keep on going on and on) [x4]
The biggest lie we tell ourselves
We’re already in
Blood shines upon us, it maces and covers

There’s a man that pours,
Throughout the floor and door,
There’s a light and there’s a dozen more
Nothing in the country doors

Every age has said, we will come, we’ll come again
(This is the last time this will happen)
You are will get, up as close, as you expect
This house is a holy place, you don’t ever have to leave
(This is the last time this will happen)
Every age has said, we will call, we’ll come again

We are taught to think of our success in terms of numbers
If touching one person’s life is a good thing,
then touching one thousands people lives must be a great thing,
It’s easy to see where we learned to think this way
Our whole society revolves around mass production
The more units we can move
The more customers we can serve
The more boats we can get
The more money and the more stuff we have, the better, right?
Maybe it’s not possible to touch one thousand peoples thinking,
or as powerfully as one person
Maybe it’s not really so revolutionary after all,
to have one person out of a group of twenty, tell everybody else what’s right
Wouldn’t it be better if we tried a decentralized approach
where everyone works closely with those around them,
instead of a few people waiting in anonymous mass?
Do you have to save the world all by yourself,
why don’t you trust someone else to do it with you?

    but the fact of the matter is they want you to understand what there saying. there not trying to artsy and revolutionary (i ume) there trying to warn us of an approaching doom, something that is unavoidable, but preparable indeed. many people have warned of us of things the simple day to day person cant fathom. but we have chose to ignore it. and now all you can do is prepare

    its not that hard to understand what this song is talking about. its referring to our current age (picses) and how were approaching the next ( aqaurius - the man with a bowl of water). every age is judge, and by the way we’ve have destroyed our planet, according to this song, we will be judged as guilty and go forth to recieve our punishment….were not in , and we will get as close as we expect

    Great album, every song is great besides one part of Another Leather Lung that just hurts my ears to listen to.
    This song and Uzbekistan end on great monologues. I was surprised at how good they are.

    This song is the intro to an album whose concepts you will probably wont come close to understanding…I know because I dont know. However, musically, this album is beyond brilliant and is the epitamy of modern day progressive rock.

    If they shorten it on some of their T-shirts, you can shorten if you want. If your too stupid to know that someone means The Sound of Animals Fighting by saying TSOAF then why the does it matter anyway.
