SikTh - When Will The Forest Speak... ? Lyrics
Why can I not sleep?
Why am I turning?
Why are all the trees burning?
Forest fires, crooked liars,
Why am I so sullen and drained?
In the bush, it's raining,
Lost man on his own,
Has anyone thought to save him?
The monkey is waiting in the tree
Counts to three
Hearing the sound of the fume-fuelled wagon
He leaps on the back...
Attack! Attack! Attack!
No old heathen, not today.
The rain falls upon the acidic trees of the millennium scorn
The fire has vanished, leaving behind a trail of death for all to see.
The birds and the trees, then you and me
Lay twitching on the forest floor.
The yeti is waiting for us to take us into his home,
Care for us just like one of his own.
Wild bones!
Wild bones!
Wait! The yeti no longer has a home
The trees are gone and nothing has grown.
A table, a chair, an internet nightmare,
When will the forest speak?
When all is dried up and way too weak?
Wait for nightfall, it's so beautiful out here.
Up high in a wave of oxygen love I sit,
Up high on this glorified cement postcard I spit.
I spit, I spit upon thee.
Wait for your red skies,
Wait for the red skies,
Do you know how it feels to be alive?
Let me know, let me know how you feel...
When will the forest speak?
When the trees are dried up and way too weak?
Wasting a life on calculations,
Not enough money for operations,
Waste of life, statistics, plastic soldiers
Sound of sticks rubbing together.
All the people gather.
Wait for the man, he must have a plan,
Show me and make me a smile I can wear.
Me and you we can make up too,
No use for hate if you're wearing my shoes.
Be happy, be sad, be a wild rotten lamb,
Don't bother me now, I'm drenched to the bone.
A sound of a truck and an axe and a fall
Of a tree and a life and a planet so small
Sick to the bone of your dour heart of stone.
Let me know how you feel...
You say it's too hot so you can take off your top
A clank of a slot machine, coins bled unclean.
A beaten old lizard staggers over the road,
A hand and a heart, the lake in the park,
The candle won't light and the fire won't spark.
I'm worn and I'm torn but I still carry on.
The money is angry, the money has taken the...
Watching mayhem leaping from truck to truck,
This is where he rejoins his friends.
They feast, they drink, they talk about
How things used to be...
I still can't sleep.
I still can't sleep.
I still can't sleep.
A million minds and a million voices
A million thoughts, and only one choice.
The need to find peace.

Love this
So good
I use this track to test frequency responses on high quality stereo systems
reminds of DEADPOOL minds kill...
Don't care so much for their music, but this track always struck a nerve with me.
People don't get this, its basically saying, if we continue to allow corporations to commit inhumane atrocities, our planet will look a lot like Mars...
I'm going seeing South at Download Freezes Over on Saturday!
Sikth rather, stupid predictive!
cool stuff for sure
what the fuck were they taking when they came up with this?!.. pure genius
SICK TO THE BONE OF YOUR DOUR HEART OF STOTOTOTONE
dafuq is this...
charlie possenriede High Art.
stone sour really REALLY blowz. SiKth was incredible
This makes me want to apply for a job at Disney World, work in the Haunted Mansion, switch the audiotracks with this, and listen to the riders go fucking apeshit.
@ 0:41 HOLY SHIT SALADFINGERS KIDNAPPED SIKTH
@oli0880 i appologise for my ignorance. but as a darwinist i believe that things happen for a reason. for there must be an end to everything including humans and a new life takes its place
@ibidydo fool, you know nothing, dont dare justify our actions(As humanity on the whole, from the past 1000 years) when you cannot even grasp the basic of the history of evolution.
@shredder1390 no they're just completely fucking mad :')
WAIT FOR THE MAN
@MrWiggerdale123 the high voices sound funny and at one point i'm sure someone says do you want to wear my shoes.
@shredder1390
lolwut, u mad bro?
is this meant to be a joke?
@IGNsucks still tho natural selection.only the fittest will survive. and climate change will happen global warming will happen. life is like a forever going series of books from an end there is always a beginning
@ibidydo That made littlet to no sense. Moron-troll indeed.
@SinisterGrapefruit yer well forms of life die ok . look at the dinosaurs they died and then they were replaced by lizards who could survive in better conditions than their ancestors. who knows what may be next for other species of life
@ibidydo Moron-troll. A squirrel is upholding the ecosystem by feeding on tree-nuts. We contain, kill, breed, farm, harvest. We destroy all eco systems.
nightmares
your house shall be attacked by rabied badgers!!!!!!!!
in addition to the lyrics (puts on freaky emo voice) fart on an ant and kill it
@Saugori just saying ennit. dont cry about it. and its not just humans... all life forms harm eachother. e.g. you cant go to a squirrel and say "dude your stealing nuts off a tree which is damaging the ecosystem" or tell a tiger to stop hunting for food
that was spectacular
Shadein Its probably cause it's Totally random and senseless
3 people cannnot sleep.
jakob??????? ;]
This is probably the closest thing to a mind wipe that i can think of. if u listen to it an ipod or sumthing u slowly forget...
Looks like 2 people are idiots.
