Home For Grave Lyrics


The normal man, promised all things
Brought into this, taken by pain
He mistook Home For Grave
The normal man, filtered by hate
Living to pay, buying what's fake
He mistook home for grave
It's not what we're made to be
So why'd he do it?
I guess he just did not know

I guess we just do what we're told
The anthem cries, but why listen?
I guess we just do what we're told
Betrayed again, betrayed again
What began as life for him was only sorrow, was only shame
It's like the story of disgrace
Fraught with peril every day

So why'd he do it?
I guess he just did not know
Given nothing, left so lonesome
He mistook home for his grave
It's not what we're made to be
So breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
I guess we just do what we're told
The anthem cries, but why listen?

I guess we're just do what we're told
Betrayed again
What began as life for him was only sorrow, was only shame
It's like the story of disgrace
Fraught with peril every day

I guess we just do what we're told
Betrayed again, betrayed again
I guess we just do what we're told
The normal man passed away
Dead and gone

Home For Grave
  • Lead vocalist Mike Hranica explained the story behind the song to Noisecreep : "'Home for Grave' is the most blatantly fictional song on the album in that the lyrics are about this little old man that basically just wants to do his best but he never amounts to anything and he ends up dying, life is pretty much summed up in total meaninglessness," he said. "That's the idea of the song and the misery the song looks to speak of within the context of 8:18 and an album that is primarily or entirely based off suffering. So yeah, lyrically the song just enraptures that or it looks at this man."
  • Hranica expanded the song into a 53-page book subtitled A (Somewhat Neverending) Short Story, which chronicles the unremarkable life of one Ian Mitchells. Hranica's fictional tale terms Mitchells' life an "unintentionally meaningless existence," but the singer told Billboard magazine that there's something to celebrate within that. "I adore monotony within fiction," he explained. "Anyone who reads 'Home For Grave' knows routine is the primary backbone of the story, and I just love writing about that routine. Someone like Jean Paul Sartre, he does that within his stories. I think it's very compelling, and I feel very drawn to it in my own writing, just exploring that routine."

    Hranica preciously wrote One & A Half Hearts, which took its inspiration from the songs on the Devil Wears Prada's 2011 album Dead Throne.

    Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way? Lyrics


    Lord it's the same old tune, fiddle and guitar
    Where do we take it from here?
    Rhinestone suits and new shiny cars
    It's been the same way for years
    We need a change

    Somebody told me, when I came to Nashville
    Son you finally got it made
    Old Hank made it here, and we're all sure that you will
    But I don't think Hank done it this way
    No, I don't think Hank done it this way

    Ten years on the road, makin' one night stands
    Speedin' my young life away
    Tell me one more time just so's I'll understand
    Are your sure Hank done it this way?
    Did ol' Hank really do it this way?

    Lord I've seen the world, with a five piece band
    Looking at the back side of me
    Singing my songs, and one of his now and then
    But I don't think Hank done 'em this way
    I don't think Hank done it this way
    Take it home

    Real & True Lyrics


    Why did we go out of our way
    What do we do?
    Ooh went away (DJ Drama) (Mike Will Made It)

    When the sun dies
    And the stars fade from view
    Our love will remain real and true
    Through the distant
    And cold depths of space
    The radio sings our song
    It's a love real and true

    Hold on, hold on, hold up Future, what the fuck you doin'?
    You can annihilate way more chicks than the chick you screwin'
    You on top of your game, homie, man you a star
    You got real bitches, they love that nigga that you are
    They say you're like Jimi Hendrix, in his early twenties
    You in Vegas, you supposed to be with a snow bunny
    You a player, huh, you wanna come around and save her
    Keep it trill, you lovin' her just as much as your career
    You mad ill, I knew you'd be the one to keep it real
    And I can't even lie dawg, when I see y'all it gives me chills
    And I'mma stand behind y'all because I know the way you live
    Aye just do me this favor, give it time, time reveals

    When the sun dies
    And the stars fade from view
    Our love will remain real and true
    Through the distant
    And cold depths of space
    The radio sings our song
    It's a love real and true

    We've been in the same place
    For a long, long time
    If our hearts go the wrong way
    I still know you're mine
    Should we even try to fight it?
    If our love is trapped in all ways
    I know that things been rough
    But when you're by my side
    It's more than enough, yeah
    For us to make it through the test of time

    When the sun dies (when the sun dies)
    And the stars fade from view (oh yeah)
    Our love will remain real and true
    Through the distant (through the distant)
    And cold depths of space
    The radio sings our song
    It's a love real and true

    Standin' in the middle of humility
    Can't nobody ever love you more than me
    Can't nobody never love you more than me
    If love is all you need, I'm all you'll ever need
    I can never be scared of commitment
    I can prevail through life without bein' malicious
    I can't hold you for responsible for your mischiefs
    I hope you are never huntin' me with vengeance
    I'm not predictin' anything, I'm just listenin'
    Congratulations, you made it, you coulda missed it
    And I'm acceptin' your past but forgiveness
    And with all the mistakes I've made, you're still listenin'

    When the sun dies (when the sun dies)
    And the stars fade from view (from view)
    Our love will remain real and true
    Through the distant (through the distant)
    And cold depths of space
    The radio sings our song (yeah yeah)
    It's a love real and true

    Real & True
  • This song finds Future collaborating with the English singer-songwriter Mr. Hudson, who is best known for his contribution to Jay-Z's "Young Forever." Also on the track is Miley Cyrus, with whom The Astronaut Kid also worked on the Bangerz track "My Darlin'."
  • Miley Cyrus and Mr. Hudson sing to each other on the chorus over Mike WiLL Made It's production. Future explained during an appearance on MTV's RapFix Live that the English singer-songwriter sent him the hook ready for his raps. "I worked with Miley Cyrus when we were working on her project, for her album," he said. "I was doing some records in Vegas and Mr. Hudson sent a hook back he did on a Mike Will track. He played it for Miley and she wanted to be a part of it, so I'm putting the record on my album also."
  • The song was inspired by Future's relationship with his fiancée Ciara.
  • The futuristic video shows Future and Mr. Hudson on an interstellar mission who discover a seemingly lifeless Cyrus on a barren planet. The Astronaut Kid and Mi-Cy fall in love despite the Wrecking Ball singer revealing her true alien nature. "It's about somebody sacrificing their life for love," Future told MTV News of the clip. "It connected with me and my whole theme that I've been going with, as far as Pluto and my astronaut status, so I feel like I can close that chapter after this video and move on to something else."

    The clip was directed by the English portrait and fashion photographer Rankin, who has also helmed music promos for Nelly Furtado ("Say It Right"), Kelis ("Acapella") and Rita Ora ("Facemelt.")
  • Future told Spin magazine that he's always been infatuated with space through music. "I guess that was the [way I got into it]," he explained "I use it for wordplay. I've been an astronaut kid — that was one of my alter egos. I felt like I made timeless music. It was something new — nobody really ever touched on space. It was something to keep the people interested, give the fans something new. [To] have the same wordplay, but be in space."
  • Spin magazine asked Future what it was about Mr. Hudson's hook that he connected with? The Atlanta rapper replied: "Just to remain true. Everybody can relate to being real or true. Somehow, someway, you want to be real and true. Even being in a relationship, or being out of a relationship, going through tough times with someone you're in a relationship with — all those things. Basically just capturing the moment where I'm at in my life right now. To express myself in a different way that I never have. To make it great for the fans and show growth."

    I heard you're feeling nothing's going right

    So we should party, all night
    So cover your eyes, I have a surprise

    Give you something good to celebrate

    Pop your Perignon

    So hot and heavy
    Till dawn
    I got you spinning
    Like a disco ball
    I'll have them playing
    Your song

    We're living the life
    We're doing it right
    You're never gonna be unsatisfied
    If you wanna dance
    If you want it all
    You know I'm the girl that you should call

    But when you're with me
    I'll give you a taste
    Make it like your birthday everyday
    I know you like it sweet
    So you can have your cake
    Give you something good to celebrate

    So make a wish
    I'll make it like your birthday everyday
    I'll be your gift
    Give you something good to celebrate

    Happy birthday

    So let me get you in your birthday suit
    It's time to bring out the big balloons
    So let me get you in your birthday suit
    It's time to bring out the big, big, big, big, big, big balloons

    I'll make it like your birthday everyday
    I'll be your gift
    Give you something good to celebrate

    Birthday
  • This upbeat jam finds Katy promising to give some lucky person the best birthday ever. The exuberant track was written by the singer in collaboration with Bonnie McKee, Henry Walter, Max Martin and Dr. Luke. The same team also penned Prism's lead single, "Roar."
  • Katy sings some of the song in a Mariah Carey-esque higher register. "I wanted to do something that Mariah Carey would have put on her first record," Perry said while introducing the song during Prism's listening party.
  • The song's live brass is provided by the Saturday Night Live house band horn section, which gives us another Mariah Carey connection. The multi-octave songstress employed this same horn section for her performance of "If It's Over" during her 1992 MTV Unplugged special.
  • The song finds Perry seducing a lover with a bunch of sexual innuendos. Bonnie McKee told MTV News: "The bridge actually the thing about the 'birthday suit' and the 'big balloons,' I was not in the room for that. I had no idea. I didn't hear it again until it had been mixed when I came in and listened to the bridge and I was like 'Katy, what did you do when I left the room?' It was really funny. I was laughing out loud."
  • The single's cover art depicts Katy and her sister Angela Hudson at a 1990 birthday party.
  • The song's music video features Perry playing five characters; "The World's Worst Birthday Party Entertainers." They are Goldie The Dancer, Jewish MC Yosef Shulem, Kriss The Crown, Princess Mandee and Ace the Animal Trainer. The prank-a-thon clip shows Perry crashing various real life birthday parties in disguise and ruining them.
  • Perry revealed to MTV News how she had to con party planners into thinking they were taking part in a reality TV show for the video. She explained, "We had to keep this super top secret. Of course, I had to go completely undercover, so it was skewed as a reality show called Birthday Blowout. So people signed up their birthday parties for this crazy reality show where anything could go, and anything did go...! The whole thing was staged."

    Rock Star
  • This is about the grunge scene that was still in full effect in the early '90s. It's about how every band from Seattle thought they had a right to a record deal simply because they went along with what was the hot commodity: "Well I went to school in Olympia," "Everyone's the same."
  • This was deleted from the album and replaced by an outtake, "Olympia." Since Kurt Cobain died shortly before the album was released, it was thought that the lines "So much fun to be Nirvana, how would you like to be Nirvana? I'd rather die" caused the retraction, but the band and the Geffen label claimed it was pulled because it did not fit the album.

    You send a text
    It's like the wind changed your mind
    We were best friends
    Yeah, we were burning our lives
    With every kiss, and every letter
    Every promise of forever, oh
    But you hit send
    And disappeared in front of my eyes

    And now you're just a Ghost
    When I look back never would have known that
    You could be so cold
    Like a stranger vanish like a vapor
    There's just an echo where your heart used to be
    Now I see it clearly
    And there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep
    My vision's 20/20

    I see through you now
    Something is tight
    Now that I have made up my mind
    I'll be alright
    It doesn't harm me at night

    'Cause every gift, every letter, every promise of forever
    Now, it's out of sight
    Like you were never alive

    And now you're just a ghost
    When I look back never would have known that
    You could be so cold
    Like a stranger vanish like a vapor
    There's just an echo where your heart used to be
    Now I see it clearly
    And there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep
    My vision's 20/20
    I see through you now, now, now, now, now
    Now, now, now, now, now

    So rest in piece
    I see you on the other side

    And now you're just a ghost
    When I look back never would have known that
    You could be so cold
    Like a stranger vanish like a vapor
    There's just an echo where your heart used to be
    Now I see it clearly
    And there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep
    My vision's 20/20
    I see through you now, now, now, now, now

    Ghost
  • This ethereal song finds Perry recalling her failed marriage with Russell Brand. "We were best friends... now, you're just a ghost," she croons over synth stabs. Perry penned the tune with Bonnie McKee, Henry Walter, Max Martin and Dr. Luke. The same team also wrote the Prism tracks, "Roar," "Legendary Lovers" and "Birthday."
  • The lyric: "You sent a text. It's like the wind changed your mind" references how Russell Brand coldly delivered the news he wanted a divorce.
  • This is one of several tracks on Prism that were inspired by the breakdown of Perry's marriage to Russell Brand. When asked by the UK newspaper The Sunday Times how their breakup inspired her new album, the singer replied: "What I wanted to call this record at first was Adult Reality. Teenage Dream was me so high on that cotton-candy cloud, and then it's like I got punched in the face and kicked down the stairs a couple of times."

    "I had to face the reality that things are not always on cloud nine," she added. "I was down and out, I'd lost hope, all of my self-confidence had been shattered."

    Love Me Lyrics


    I lost myself in fear of losing you
    I wish I didn't do, but I did
    I lost my own, my own identity
    Forgot that you picked me, for me

    But now, I don't negotiate with insecurities
    They always seem to get the best of me
    I found I had to love myself, the way I want you to

    Love Me, no more second guessing
    No, there’s no more questioning
    I’ll be the one defining who I'm gonna be
    No concealing feelings, or changing seasonally
    I’m gonna love myself, the way I want you to love me

    Sometimes I wish my skin was a costume
    That I could just unzip, and strip
    But who I am is who I'm meant to be
    And it's who you are in love, in love with
    So now, I don't negotiate with insecurities
    You're gonna have to take a back seat
    I know I have to love myself, the way I want you to

    Love me, no more second guessing
    No, there’s no more questioning
    I’ll be the one defining who I'm gonna be
    No concealing feelings, or changing seasonally
    I’m gonna love myself, the way I want you to love me

    No more standing in my own way
    Let's get deeper, let's get closer
    No more standing in my own way
    (I want you to love me)
    No more standing in my own way
    Let's get deeper, let's get closer
    No more standing in my own way
    (I want you to love me)

    No more second guessing

    Love Me
  • This self-empowerment tune was informed by Perry's dissolved marriage to Russell Brand. "I lost myself in fear of losing you," the Santa Barbara native sings, before later concluding, "I know I have to love myself, the way I want you to love me." Perry described this as a song "about loving yourself the way you want to be loved."
  • The racing Electro-Pop track was produced in Stockholm by Bloodshy of Miike Snow, whom Perry has wanted to work with ever since he helmed Britney Spears' "Toxic."

    I don't want to sleep with you
    I don't need the passion too
    I don't want a stormy affair
    To make me feel my life is heading somewhere
    All I want is the comfort and care
    Just to know that my woman gives me sweet
    Mother Love ah ha

    I've walked too long in this lonely lane
    I've had enough of this same old game
    I'm a man of the world and they say that I'm strong
    But my heart is heavy, and my hope is gone

    Out in the city, in the cold world outside
    I don't want pity, just a safe place to hide
    Mama please, let me back inside

    I don't want to make no waves
    But you can give me all the love that I crave
    I can't take it if you see me cry
    I long for peace before I die
    All I want is to know that you're there
    You're gonna give me all your sweet
    Mother love ah ha (mother love)

    My body's aching, but I can't sleep
    My dreams are all the company I keep
    Got such a feeling as the sun goes down
    I'm coming home to my sweet
    Mother love

    (Mother love mother love love love love love)

  • This was the last song Freddie Mercury recorded. May explained in the Days of our Lives documentary that "Freddie would say 'give me words, I will sing' so there I was writing on scraps of paper these lines of 'Mother Love.' I would give him a line, he would sing it, then sing it again, then sing it again - so we only had three takes of everything. After he'd finished the second verse, he said 'Oh I don't feel too well, I'm going to go home and we'll finish it tomorrow'... and he never did. That was the last time I saw Freddie in the studio."

    The final verse was written and sung by Brian May a couple of years after Mercury died in November 1991.
  • Roger Taylor is a particular admirer of this song. He notes in the Days of our Lives documentary: "I'm hearing the voice (Freddie's voice) getting... weaker. But I mean he still hits all the notes. There's an absolutely spine-chilling note in the middle of "Mother Love" ("out in the city, in the cold world outside, I don't want pity, just a safe place to hide") which is just a great bit of singing."
  • The lyrics were co-written by Freddie Mercury and Brian May. It is one of the few times in song that Mercury seems to admit his inner pains and struggles of dealing with AIDS ("I'm a man of the world and they say I am strong, but my heart is heavy and my hope is gone") - the other key one being "The Show Must Go On."
  • The random bursts of sound throughout the song and the strange end sounds are small segments of every Queen track ever recorded sped very fast through a tape machine and mashed together. They combine at the end with samples of Mercury's famous 'deh-doh!' vocal interludes with the crowd from Live at Wembley 1986, the synth intro to "One Vision," and a sample from his very first single, "Goin' Back" in 1972, which he performed vocals on under the pseudonym of Larry Lurex. In the context of the song it is obviously meant to show the cyclical nature of life and death, and a man looking back across the entire spectrum of his life and career.

    Spike In My Veins Lyrics


    We are the ones taking all the pain
    Falling on our faces
    They don’t care anyway
    Anyway, now
    You’re the one that makes me feel like I’m alive
    You’re the one that pushes me all the time
    All the time, now

    We are hard and grey
    Always fate, to do what they say
    Calling me deranged
    Feeling power, I must take its place some way

    Never gonna run away
    Seeking out the path
    But the pain always gets in the way
    Slowly watch me die
    I’m insane, so dangerous
    Don’t you dare get in my way
    Throwing in the towel
    Got me strained, so betrayed
    Get the fuck out of my way
    Looking at my thoughts, I take my time
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins

    We are the ones reaching out in vain
    Trying to solve our problems
    They won’t go away, go away now
    You’re the one that makes me feel like I’m alive
    You’re the one that pushes me all the time
    All the time, now

    We are hard and grey
    Always fate to do what they say
    Calling me deranged
    Feeling power, I must take its place some way

    Never gonna run away
    Seeking out my path
    But the pain always gets in the way
    Slowly watch me die
    I’m insane, so dangerous
    Don’t you dare get in my way
    Throwing in the towel
    Got me strained, so betrayed
    Get the fuck out of my way
    Looking at my thoughts, I take my time
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins

    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins

    Never gonna run away
    Seeking out my path
    But the pain always gets in the way
    Slowly watch me die
    I’m insane, so dangerous
    Don’t you dare get in my way
    Throwing in the towel
    Got me strained, so betrayed
    Get the fuck out of my way
    Looking at my thoughts, I take my time
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins

    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins
    Looking at my thoughts, I take my time
    Pounding all these spikes in my veins

  • Jonathan Davis originally wrote and recorded this tune with the Dutch Electronic music trio Noisia for inclusion on J Devil's debut album, but it ended up being reworked as a Korn song. Davis told The Pulse of Radio that Brian "Head" Welch 's return on guitar after an absence of nearly a decade was a good balance to his own continued fascination with electronic music. "We wanted to make a record that everybody was happy with, and Head coming back, I think, was great, 'cause me and him butted heads," he said. "'Cause he really is on the rock side and I was on the electronic side, and it was good having the compromise on both sides. It was just good for the creative process."
  • The David Dinetz directed video finds Korn taking their concerns over celebrity-led news overtaking deeper issues like governmental data surveillance. Davis told Rolling Stone, "We are all so caught up in watching crazy media on the Internet and TV that we are manipulated into ignoring that our privacy has all but disappeared."
  • The reasoning behind the video was an attempt was to highlight the band's theory that the government uses celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Kanye West and Justin Bieber to take our attention away from what Barack Obama has been doing while in office. For instance, the National Defense Authorization Act was signed by the President on the same day of Miley's 2013 MTV Video Music Awards performance, yet the latter got the most media attention.

    "I think that our government uses those people to detract from what's really going on," Davis told TMZ . "The thing with the whole Miley Cyrus stuff at the VMAs, when that went down Obama passed a law that made him basically a dictator. He can imprison whoever he wants. He doesn't have to charge them, he can hold them as long as he wants."

    Lorenzo Lyrics


    Once upon a time I made a lion roar
    He was sleeping in the sunbeams on the old zoo floor.
    I had gone to see the park where my papa used to play,
    It's called called Villa Borghese and it's on the way
    To East Africa.

    Down on Grand Comoro Island, where I grew past four,
    I could swim and fish and snorkel on the ocean floor,
    And the wind laughed, and the wind laughed through the trees as if to say,
    Here's a child who'll want the world to go his way
    In East Africa, in East Africa.

    Suddenly for me the world turned upside down
    Far from my friends the lions and the dolphins came this awful sound.

    Dark shadows, sounds of thunder raging over me,
    Came this monster called 'A-dre-no-leu-ko-dys-tro-phy'
    Where's my East Africa?

    Well they said, they said, they said (the ones who know it all)
    They said from now on for you there will be no more standing tall,
    So I took my parents' hands, I lifted my head to say
    I'll just have to be a hero, there's no other way!
    Back to East Africa
    Back to East Africa
    Back to East Africa
    Come with me I'm going back, going back to East Africa.

  • This is about Lorenzo Odone, the severely disabled young boy from the 1993 film Lorenzo's Oil. Lorenzo's mother Michela had been working with Lorenzo on putting his life story into lyrical form as part of his stimulation, and it was Lorenzo's wish that Collins sing the song. Michela Odone received a songwriter credit along with Collins.
  • As of 2005, Lorenzo was still alive. He is severely disabled and cannot speak. He communicates through blinking his eyes to say no and wiggling his fingers to say yes.
