    The Used - The Bird And The Worm

     

    He wears his heart safety pinned to his backpack
    His backpack is all that he knows
    Shot down by strangers
    Whose glances can cripple
    The heart and devour the soul

    All alone he turns to stone
    While holding his breath half to death
    Terrified of what's inside
    To save his life
    He crawls like a worm from a bird
    (ALL ALONE)
    Crawls like a worm from a bird

    Out of his mind
    The weight pushes him whispering
    Must have been out of his mind
    Mid-day delusions
    of pushing this out of his head
    Maybe out of his mind
    (Out of his mind)

    All alone he turns to stone
    While holding his breath half to death
    Terrified of what's inside
    To save his life
    He crawls like a worm
    Crawls like a worm from a bird
    (ALL ALONE)
    (ALL ALONE)
    (Crawls like a worm from a bird)
    (Crawls like a worm)
    (Crawls like a worm from a bird)

    All he knows
    If he can't relieve it it grows
    And so it goes
    He crawls like a worm
    Crawls like a worm from a bird

    Out of his mind
    The weight pushes him whispering
    Must have been out of his mind

    All alone he turns to stone
    While holding his breath half to death
    Terrified of whats inside
    To save his life
    He crawls like a worm from a bird

    All alone
    He's holding his breath half to death
    (Holding his breath half to death)
    Terrified
    To save his life
    He crawls like a worm
    (CRAWLS LIKE A WORM)
    Crawls like a worm from a bird
    (ALL ALONE)
    Crawls like a worm from a bird
    (ALL ALONE)
    Crawls like a worm from a bird
    (ALL ALONE)
    Crawls like a worm
    Crawls like a worm
    Crawls like a worm from a bird

     

  •         对EMO实在没什么了解,所以对The Used这个算得上是EMO里很传奇很经典的乐队也没什么了解,一直觉得名字很熟悉,不过也可能是used这个字平时出现频率比较高才会有这种感觉,印象中之前没听过他们的歌,对他们的声音也没什么印象。听了几首<Lies For The Liars>里的歌,感觉上这并不是我最喜欢的那种风格,对我来说节奏还是太快了。

            如果不是看了<Moonlight>我估计我也不会有机会接触这个乐队,吸血鬼果然是很有魅力的东西,<The Bird And The Worm>很可能只是一首很普通的歌曲,但是放到<Moonlight>里再听就觉得很有魅力的一首歌,旋律很诡异,很适合吸血鬼这个主题,同时又很能打动人,很霹雳的一首歌。实际上<Lies For The Liars>里其他的歌也都很不错,<Hospital>听起来也是很酷的一首歌,也有诡异的感觉,总的来说,这张专辑里的歌都是很疯狂的那种,<Find A Way>和<Smother Me>倒是比较平静的歌,还有别的专辑的<Blue And Yellow>,这首歌很不错。

            值得一提的是,The Used的专辑封面都做的很漂亮。
