Skin Lyrics


I'm starting to feel loopy
Your dizziness consumes me

Jesus don't speak English
But I do think I understand
The rhyme and the reason
Of a goody good gentleman
If I were one I swear
I'd still be tasting your Skin

The sky tonight is gracious
To rain on me your sweetness

I scream an explanation
Your world is so contagious

    Heavy Lyrics


    Complicate this world you wrapped for me
    I'm acquainted with your suffering

    And all your weight
    It falls on me
    It brings me down
    And all your weight
    It falls on me
    It falls on me

    Hold me up to all whom you've deceived
    Promises you break you still believe

    Heavy
  • The guitar solo in the song uses 6 different types of Wah effects: 2 standard pedals, 3 Auto Wah pedals, and a digital Wah via Pro-Tools.
  • "Heavy" rocketed to the #1 spot on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, and then set a record for longevity at that position by cruising for 15 weeks. The record stands so far. This, in addition to the other seven charting hit singles from the Dosage album, made it a landmark in Collective Soul's career.
  • The band performed this at the Woodstock '99 festival, along with a cover of Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train."
    And "Crazy Train" pretty much sums up the Woodstock '99 experience. As opposed to earlier attempts to recapture the Woodstock spirit, Woodstock '99 was marked by riots, looting, fires, and reported rapes and assaults. The Red Hot Chili Peppers' Anthony Kiedis compared viewing the fires from the stage while performing with scenes from the film Apocalypse Now. Riot police broke it up, ending it abruptly. Looking back, one has to wonder what got into people. Y2K jitters?
  • Anthony J. Resta was the producer for this album. Along with being a marquee producing talent for acts such as Duran Duran and Megadeth, he also snagged his 11th RIAA Gold and Platinum certification for his production work on the soundtracks for the Twilight films. See, that's just what Collective Soul fans wanted was to be reminded of Twilight.

    Smashing Young Man Lyrics


    Beggar's description
    Of what I've been missing
    Exploit your position
    Don't think I didn't listen
    Hey I hope you're feeling

    A little better now
    Success is so tragic
    Pain is your gadget
    Your tongue is just lashing
    Just bitching by habit
    Hey I hope you're feeling
    A little purer now
    Hey I hope you're feeling

    Securer now
    Help me I plea
    I don't understand
    Your ways and your means
    You Smashing Young Man

    Help me to see
    The good you have planned
    You're wearing thin
    You smashing young man
    You preach synthetic-like

    Peace is an oversight
    It's nothing to ignite
    Your self-lit spotlight
    Hey I hope you're feeling

    A little special now
    Hey I want to tell you
    I think you're special now
    I don't recall asking for guidance

    I don't recall wanting to
    I don't recall bowing before you
    But I'm so impressed
    With the kindness in your attitudee

    Smashing Young Man
  • This song is about Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins. Billy tried to sue the band after "Shine" was a hit - he claimed they copied his song "Rhinosauris." However, "Shine" was featured on a Ed Roland demo back in 1987 long before Billy wrote his song. The case was thrown out.

    Released: 1999

    She Said Lyrics


    She Said that time is unfair
    To a woman her age
    Now that wisdom has come
    Everything else fades
    She said she realizes
    She's seen her better days
    She said she can't look back
    To her days of youth
    What she thought were lies
    She later found was truth
    She said her daddy had dreams
    But he drank them away
    And her mother's to blame
    For the way she is today
    Life's river shall rise
    She said
    And only the strong shall survive
    She said
    But I'm feeling quite weak
    She said
    Will you comfort and forgive me
    She said
    She said she's still searching
    For salvation's light
    She said she wishes all day
    And she prays all night
    She said she won't speak of love
    Because love she's never known
    She said it's moments like these
    She hates to be alone
    Forgive me
    She said
    Forgive me
    She said
