[Inconquerable]

I think the Battleground chorus might be:

This broken alliance leaves me so hollow
And wondering how, etc. etc.

[Andy92]

He uses broken alliance the second time around. He says "and wondering how" every time though. I mentioned this yesterday, the OP just hasn't been updated yet.

[austinjhnsn]

I think he says broken alliance everytime... It definitely sounds like it.

[austinjhnsn]

Is there anything I need to update, guys? Avalon and Battleground should be up to date.

[Inconquerable]

I think he says broken alliance everytime... It definitely sounds like it.

=)

Without you, there is no us!

AUS-TIN! AUS-TIN! AUS-TIN!

[austinjhnsn]

WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER...

yes, it was a "high school musical" reference. yes, i watched that.

[MylesKennedyIsGod]

We're talking about the guy who wrote Sick and Wrong.

Right? I was listening to Second Skin with my sister (who's 15) the other day and when the chorus kicked in I was like: Shit...I should not be playing this right now

But then again, Sick and Wrong is the one and only Mayfield Four song that REALLY goes over the top. If I ever get a chance to talk to Myles one-on-one for a little bit (which is highly unlikely), I would love talk about that time period. Talking about the MF4 with Myles would be one of the best moments of my life (Meeting him and the rest of AB in Kansas City is definitely up there!)

[MylesKennedyIsGod]

The Unholy just gets more and more powerful and disturbing (especially the 1st bridge ("now fall to your knees" part)) everytime I listen to it...easily in the top 10 songs Myles has ever written, IMO

[Ubik]

We're talking about the guy who wrote Sick and Wrong.

Yeah I was thinking about that song when I was typing the reply but he doesn't use such awkward phrasing in that one...

Yeah it's more that the phrase doesn't make a lot of sense that troubles me. Plus stuff like Sick and Wrong and Dirty Girl don't bother me much since they're not really taking themselves seriously. Either way still love the song, just gonna block it out from now on

[LouNRoses]

Withered Delilah:

[...]

CHORUS
Stuck out of view
My withered delilah
You know it's true that no one cares anymore
Stuck out of view
You had your time
But now your moment is all but gone

Oh it's gone

Am I the only one who's hearing "your moment is over gone"? Have a pretty bad ear as I'm french, I may be mistaking but it makes sense with the rest of the lyrics ...

[Kreuger33]

Trying to figure out the intro to The Dissident. I can't get the first line which repeats before where the fuck's my tractor. I can't find anything related on Google. Somebody did it for fun, I think.

and mama's goin'a drive the tractor
daddy's just the guy who can give me steel tonight
hey where the fuck's my tractor?
I said mama, I done lost that tractor again

[Andy92]

The first line starts out with "conscientious objector" but I can't remember the rest. I'd have to listen to it again.

[Timotheus]

Favourite lyrics of the album right there

[Ubik]

"Daddy said I gotta clear?/till? these fields tonight". Can't really make out the line before.

I like to think it's from an album on vinyl that Myles bought whilst drunk.

[SHEAKENBAKEN]

Still no takers on what Myles might be saying here?
