...push me somewhere I don't wanna be....
lyrics of the day
I've once again begun listening to Tool obsessively, not that I ever really stopped but with the impending doom of the new album, I've once again re:instated my love for this track...and how very closely this mans lyrics model certain points in my life, as if channeling my thoughts from afar..."we are all one consciousness experiencing ourselves subjectively"
Live version of Push It from the Salival album
Saw that gap again today.
While you were begging me to stay.
Take care not to make me enter.
If I do we both may disappear.
Saw that gap again today.
While you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away
And you as well, my dear
And you, as well
Pushed you away my dear
I will choke until I swallow
Choke this infant here before me
What are you but my reflection?
Who am I to judge or strike you down?
But you're pushing me
And Im shoving you
And your pushing me
And Im shoving you
Rest your trigger on my finger,
Bang my head upon the fault line
You better take care not to make me enter
If I do we both may disappear
But you're pushing me
And Im shoving you
And your pushing me
And Im shoving you
You still love me
We're pushing and were shoving
And you're pushing and I'm shoving
You still love me
And were pushing and were shoving
And I'm pushing as your shoving
And Im slipping back into the gap again
I feel alive when you touch me...
I feel alive when you hold me...
...down
Slipping back into you
I am somewhere I dont wanna be, yeah
Put me somewhere I dont wanna be
Push me somewhere I dont wanna be
Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
Never wanna see that place again...
Saw that gap again today
While you were begging me to stay
Managed to push myself away,
And you as well, my dear
If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay,
You minimize my movement anyway,
I must persuade you another way
Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing and Shoving and
Pushing me
There's no love in fear.
Staring down the hole again.
Hands are on my back again.
Survival is my only friend.
Terrified of what may come.
Remember I will always love you,
As I claw your fucking throat away.
It will end no other way.
