Eleven





What was it like to see
The face of your own stability
Suddenly look away
Leaving you with the dead and hopeless?

Eleven and she was gone
Eleven is when we waved good-bye
Eleven is standing still
Waiting for me to free him By
coming home

Moving me with a sound
Opening me within a gesture
Drawing me down and in
Showing me where it all began
Eleven

It took so long to realize
that You are the voice
that's calling me back
Home


Under a dead ohio sky
Eleven has been and will be waiting
Defending his light,And wondering...
Where the hell have I been?
Sleeping, lost, and numb
So glad that I have found you
I am wide awake and heading
Home


Hold your light,Eleven
Lead me through each gentle
step by step
by inch by loaded memory
I'll move to heal
As soon as pain allows so we can
Reunite and both move on together

Hold your light,Eleven
Lead me through each gentle
step by step

By inch by loaded memory

till one and one are one
Eleven
So glow, child, glow
I'm heading back Home

  2. glad that u loved it ya Sara
    it's actually a lyric to a song called "Jimmy" by a rock band named "Tool"

    the vocalist of the band "Maynard James Keenan" is actually like an artist .. a musician and a philosopher ... to understand one of his songs' meanings u must go through a lot of connected issues like "Evolution" ... "Transfiguration" ... " alchemists " and more ..

    basically the band is more into cosmic theories ... how we will be able to evolve into some higher being after death ... how we can open our third eye - referring to : our subconscious - and be able to see divinity and how we will be reunited with God , from our mortal ground ...

    they trying to open your third eye to realize a lot of things and to be really open to what ever may come ... this comes along with a lot of the disturbance and the deeper chaos that a lot of us may feel inside because of some experiences we had in our life ...
    even if it good or bad ... this where "Jimmy" or "Elven" came from ...

    their videos also is so complicated you may understand it from a lot of different angles ..
    "Adam Jones " the guitarist of the band and also the art director of the videos described it once as he making the clips in sort of a way that really reaches right ahead for ur subconscious that even if a regular fella saw them and didn't understand a thing , he just will take with him a sort of visions without even noticing !!

    if you care to see their art you can go there and see one of their great video clips called "Parabola"
    in this link :

    Tool : Parabola

    you'll see they doing work with my fave artist "Alex Grey" that i told you about in this particular one

    sorry if i talked a lot but if i had to get a "Master degree" on something that would be "Tool" so i had to talk this long :) .. hope i didn't give you a headache :)

    ooh the photo up there is by the artist "Tony Koehl"
    and actually you can listen to "Jimmy" or "Elven" cuz u'll find the song already attached in the bottom of the post.
