Massive Attack - Group Four Lyrics

The coda is the cherry on top of a monster head and body trip.

Such an exhilarating finale to the 2nd night at the hanger. The buzz as this track hit its peak. Phenomenal Gig 🖤

Much better live.

This song starts off sneaking around the palace, and ends by burning it down.

cuando me ponia a jugar Vagrant Story en el 2003, ponia de fondo musical esta maravilla

Perfect

Thank you for supporting HK! come here to enjoy this music <3

If I were a drug

omg I let the coffee boil and... It gave me the chills nat the end

This song is like a metaphor for sex.

It starts slow, lovingly caressing.
Then the penetration begins.
Then theres the heated, rhythmic action.
Then the final orgasm.

I've always thought of this song this way, and it inevitably always conjures up x-rated imagery in my mind.

haha, yep... it's sexy and sensual song

Yup, pretty much the musical equivalent of sex

... which makes it even funnier because the actual song meaning is a lot less deep, its just about a security guard on a night shift

@Karmacoma why is it named group 4?

@isobel64 its the name of a security company in england

Group would be so much better if 3d wasnt such a little cliche edgy douche type writer. Dude tries to hard

Hes that emo kid at the back of the class. Probably the main reason for massive attacks downfall

why is this banned in the uk

It's not banned you've probably got shite internet

wtf is this ? Back to Suga Free

Se ponen de pinga esta' gente'! The best.

Reminds me of the Half Life 2 ost, heavily

When the guitar, at the end, comes in, I saw this live and whoa, it was black metal as f**k, the end of the song concentrates on that one final riff and I can tell you, live, this is pretty amazing.

i have no doubts about that. this group would be amazing to see live, with their unique sounds.

Wow a black metal comment on a Massive Attack video.

This is such a sinister song.

Heard this live recently-mesmeric, dark and beautiful.

I drink, smoke salvia, And I like this music very much,because it is finnaly something else then the regular bullshit. theovolente@gmail,com appreciates this music very much.Thanks Theodore.

In thinking about how music meshes with our experiences while alone and on the job, I've found that this song embodies my many experiences coming up short on the firewatch roster, and standing post late in the evening here in the Marine Corps. It always makes me think about those ghostly, ethereal haunts I've undertaken in my line of duty.. half awake, half asleep. Half alive, half dead. Particularly the lyric "Til daylight sends me home... flickering, I roam". The song itself appears to be about a lone security guard, making his rounds and performing his monotonous nightly ritual, like a wraith caught in some sort of limbo.. which captivates me greatly.

Well I’m glad someone isn’t afraid of expression... I’ll join you one day tho;

Beautifully spoken!

Damn I thought I was the only Marine into this good stuff. Nice!

I am doing my military service now and I know exactly what you are talking about

@JustShutUpNWatch He is spamming to get people to go to his youtube channel

Bebe Rexha wrote this ?

the last 2 minutes of this song feels like transcending and being torn apart beautifully

that bit...is what I came to listen to again......something about it that made this song special for me.


EDIT: Yeah, the bit around 5:30 that others are mentioning also :D

me before hearing this song in 2009: fuck my life into pieces
me after hearing this song: I have no peen and I must coom

[Verse 1: 3D]
A flask I drink of sober tea
While relay cameras monitor me
And the buzz surrounds, it does
Buzz surrounds, buzz surrounds

[Pre-Chorus 1: Elizabeth Fraser]
Closed eyed sky wide open
Unlimited girl, unlimited sigh
Elsewhere, indefinite, far away
Magnifies and deepens

[Chorus: 3D & Elizabeth Fraser]
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
And listening
Keeps me from my hurt
My ears know that my eyes are closed
Perished thoughts like contraband

[Verse 2: 3D]
I train myself in martial arts
As advertised
I reinforce my softened parts
As advertised

[Pre-Chorus 2: Elizabeth Fraser]
See through me, little glazed lane
A world in myself

[Chorus 2: 3D & Elizabeth Fraser]
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
Flickering, I roam
And listening
My ears know that my eyes are closed

[Chorus 2: 3D & Elizabeth Fraser]
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
Flickering, I roam
And listening
My ears know that my eyes are closed

[Verse 3: 3D]
I see to bolts
Put key to locks
No boats or rocks
I'm free to roam
On dummy screens
And magazines

[Refrain: Elizabeth Fraser]
Closed eyed sky wide open
Unlimited girl, unlimited sigh

[Verse 4: 3D]
Think that I lay next to you
Wasting time when I could do
A simple job in strip lights
A flask I drink of sober tea
Till daylight sends me home
Flickering, I roam

[Outro: Elizabeth Fraser]
Daydreaming, admiring, being
Quietly, open the world
I hear the time of the starry sky
Turning over at midnight
See through me, little glazed lane
A world in myself
Daydreaming, admiring, being
Quietly, open the world
I hear the time of the starry sky
Turning over at midnight

5:30 to 7:46 is my favourite part!

yes, partly because you were set up by 0:00 to 5:29

mine too

Damn, that last two minutes of the song REALLY jazz it up... such a great album

One if the greatest tracks ever written. By one of the greatest groups to make music. Ever. This song is Fuckin god.

and one of the greatest mysteries: how has this only had 34k views as of Nov 2018!?

Mesmerizing.

Inviting trance <3

Awesome.
