Silverchair - One Way Mule Lyrics






Let my spirit ride on a one way mule
Blistered skin in a cold hearted pool
Distant emotion hides a concrete wall
Naked and anchored
I'll climb right back to you

Love me for my mind
Cause I'm a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill
I'm coming back to you

Distant memories in a cage by my bed
Viscid dreams stick to holes in my head
But a patient career of sleep in a Sunday dress
Rides my wake

And love me for my mind
Cause I'm a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill
I'm coming back to you
I'll stake out just to find
The knife in the dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill
I'm coming back for you

And love me for my mind
Cause I'm a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill
I'm coming back for you
I'll stake out just to find
The knife in a in a dangerous heart
When I've got time to kill
I'm coming back to you
To you
To you, yeah
To you

    my favorite in this whole album
    truly captures that old silverchair essence
    which i miss in them

    very epic song also has that very ALICE IN CHAINS moment to it :)

  14. r.... ....

    before silverchair turned into a lame pop band on their next album! this song rules and so did the lever!

  15. J.... H....

    Let my spirit ride
    On a one way mule
    Blistered skin in a cold hearted pool
    Distant emotion
    Hides a concrete wall
    Naked and anchored
    I'll climb right back to you

    And love me for my mind
    Coz I'm a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill
    I'm coming back to you

    Distant memories in a cage by my bed

    Coz I'm a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill
    I'm coming back to you
    I'll stake out just to find
    The knife in a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill, I'm coming back for you

    And love me for my mind
    Coz I'm a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill
    I'm coming back for you
    I'll stake out just to find
    The knife in a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill I'm coming back to you
    To you, yeah

  16. S.... ....

    Riffs on par with Down and Superjoint rituals band.....

  17. a.... d....

    this is the last rock song from silverchair, before they turn into pop gay

    a.... d....

    and The Lever too...that song is heavy as hell!

    a.... d....

    atleast one of those "pop gay" songs reached level 1 in australia unlike some silverchair songs

    a.... d....

    @dazolty hence why number 1, pop=popular🙄

    a.... d....

  19. R.... &....

    Love me for my mind 'cause I'm a dangerous heart... 💗

  20. R.... F....

    Essa canção,Hollywood e the lever são as últimas canções que representam o verdadeiro silverchair.

  21. R.... F....

    Brazil 2018

  22. M.... A....

    Pense numa música booooa!! Vamos fazer um especial Silverchair sábado (2/12/17) em Manaus-Am!

  23. R.... 2....

    Melhor álbum 🤘👅❤

  24. D.... m....

    pq sera que tanto br curte Silverchair?

    D.... m....

    na minha opinião é por que as músicas tem uma pegada pop e pode reparar que brasileiro ama coisa pop, assim como eu

    D.... m....

    @Guilherme Gomes sim igual Spawn Again kkkkkkkk

    D.... m....

    @Guilherme Gomes nada a ver. Silverchair teve musicas como tema de novelas da globo. Por isso popularizou aqui.

  25. D.... m....

    melhor musica do Diorama

    D.... m....

    DuDu m1l gr4u the lever tb é top!

  26. M.... A....

    Essa música é porrada demais!

  27. D.... M....

    Badass guitar riff!!

    D.... M....

    and voice + Lyrics

    D.... M....

    hell yeah!

  28. J.... M....

    Maravilha de álbum e banda!!

  29. M.... A....

    O álbum da minha adolescência. Sofri e sorri muito com ele.

  30. O.... C....

    velho eu escutava demais , e ainda não enjoou.

  31. J.... ....

    Diorama, a joia de sempre de Silverchair. The Greatest View, Without You e World Upon Your Shoulders, minhas favoritas de sempre, mas o disco inteiro é genial!

    J.... ....

    silverchair é viciante não tem como não gostar de uma musica. parabéns pelo bom gosto aliás.

  32. m.... ....

    Isto é uma obra prima

  33. e.... s....

    se eu ganhasse $1 real para cada pessoa que me falasse que gosta dessa banda, eu ia ficar pobre.

    e.... s....

    Como assim???

  34. R.... J....

    silverchair needs to get back together. would be so awesome. reunion tour and a new album.

    R.... J....

    If silverchair comes back I'll be the first time on all the tours

  35. G.... W....

    I really love this song!!

  36. J.... F....

    strong riff....

  37. M.... ....

    this is their best album by far. It was Neon Ballroom, refined. Absolutely brilliant songwriting throughout.

    M.... ....

    Totally agree..an album that stands alone in rock music .. untouchable

    M.... ....

    I still believe that steam will rise will be their greatest song of all time in my opinion.

    M.... ....

    Neon ballroom is MASTERFUL !

    M.... ....

    Great album but you ever heard of freak show???

  38. B.... S....

    I miss that band. I was 18 when Frogstomp came out. Damn I still love this band...

    B.... S....

    Tijs Primo Yup seen Sponge like 3 times. Met em at the place they were playing at the time called Clutch Cargos. Another good underground Detroit band... Clutch. They have some badass tunes. Detroit rock city bro, this place is filled with rock n roll. It has its ghettos and it's one of the roughest and most dangerous places to live but hanging out downtown on the weekends is always awesome. And fuck yeah Deftones kick ass!!! In June was the 7th time I saw em.

    B.... S....

    Deftones Mike What are your favorite Deftones and Sponge albums?
    Mine are Saturday Night Wrist and New Pop Sunday

    B.... S....

    And they were around 15 when they recorded Frogstomp, damn talented, worthy of admiration ill tell ya.

    B.... S....

    I was 10!! really miss silverchair

    get tge government.

  40. T.... A....

    i sung this yesterday on smule karaoke app

  41. T.... A....

    love how they chucked in a few heavier ones on this more mellow album...this is one of my faves......love wen the double bass kicks in

  42. d.... ....

    I fucking LOVE this album!

  43. d.... d....

    the best álbum

  44. A.... W....

    awesome song from this awesome album...I love the raspy voice

  45. R.... F....

    I love this fucking song! S2

  46. S.... P....

    Silverchair eterno! Amo essa música!!!!!

    S.... P....

    Simone Peres Orlando doca

    S.... P....

    iisooooo!

  47. A.... S....

    need silverchair 😖💔

    A.... S....

    Umergerd lik samsies btch

    A.... S....

    Alana Siqueira ,Orlando doca

    A.... S....

    Just need? Also a want yes, yes? I know the feeling, a soldier sent me, told me, gave me, a message and a memo saying not to forget the list so I'll have to remember to pin it to my chest or you'll send the grocery clerk to write, and aid me with a bill. I havevunfinished business and continued education to attend to. I Love You, I love to laugh :).

  48. M.... N....

    can this song be played in drop d

    M.... N....

    or drop d flat if best cuz I'm still learn guitar and I don't know how to tune it to drop b

    M.... N....

    +michael norman just match the low e string with your b string

    M.... N....

    +Dan Parry do I keep every string in the same tune as e standard then

    M.... N....

    I mean the real tuning is B A D G b e. Just drop the low E to B (match the octave of the second fret of the A string)

  49. g.... ....

    miss silverchair like these

  50. C.... ....

    If they ever make a new album I hope they include more songs like this one. This is the closest thing to Frogstomp and Freak Show they ever got since they changed musical direction.

    C.... ....

    yes 14 year old Daniel Johns was cooler , as cool as you ;)

    C.... ....

    Kurt Cobain listened to pop songs more than aggressive rock, same with Maynard James Keenan nowadays. Your point is moot rjbizzle1984

    C.... ....

    Tesla Death Ray When and where did he say that about this song ? I’d need evidence after hearing that. After this album he said in an interview that he recorded a whole album full of anger/aggression but hit the delete button because he was sick of doing angry and wanted to do happy. I wish he hadn’t because Young Modern was a load of bubble gum cock rock. And I don’t like his solo Rainbow Astro Pop style either.

    C.... ....

    Ulysses They listened to quite a bit of old school punk but not pop music.

    C.... ....

    Should have released this as a single instead of the greatest view but I guess the record company has influence and know what will be played on commercial radio a lot more often.

  51. H.... C....

    I wish all of their songs in Diorama were like this. So good

    H.... C....

    A heavier sound would've been cool af!

    H.... C....

    Agreed!

    H.... C....

    I Feel you
    i think the reason of why is so good is because it truly has that right between style of FREAKSHOW & NEON BALLROOM feel to it
    i don't think this is the only good song of diorama album
    but is certainly the best

    H.... C....

    DRAGOTH BELMONT this, tuna in the brine and without you are my fav routine songs on this album. personally I don't like the first two albums (or their last) but I hear what you're saying. I think they peaked with this album

  52. E.... R....

    Best Silverchair song.

    E.... R....

    one of the MANY good ones

  53. M.... P....

    if you like this you need to listen to a band called cave in. theyve been killing this genre for forever now. or harvey milk. neurosis, isis....

  54. O.... O....

    Obra prima.

  55. J.... ....

    SIlverchair KICKASS !!!

  56. D.... D....

    This kind of stuff was awesome!! Da ladies loved it!! But... Eventually justin bibber had to come up with the crappiest songs ever. JB sucks.

    D.... D....

    +Ben Challenger LOL

  57. c.... ....

    wooooooooooooooooooooooonderful song...

  58. A.... a....

    Badass song

  59. a.... b....

    so jealous much dumb fuck :)

  60. h.... ....

    diorama is their best album

  61. L.... ....

    I love the heavier side of silverchair :D

  62. T.... i....

    I love this song, but it seems strangely out of place on this album (just listen to it after Tuna In The Brine). I think it's a kind of a Neon Ballroom "spill-over" if you will. Having said that, I love this album. People always say "I like old Silverchair better" and that's okay to say, because I love Frogstomp, but this band did not and would not keep making Frogstomp. Bands that make the same album over and over again sound tired after a while. Diorama is amazing, especially 10 years later.

  63. a.... b....

    kool . :)

  64. Y.... D....

    his voice kills me !!!!!!

  65. Y.... D....

    mine too!! <3

  66. R.... F....

    Oh my God! Is amazing voice. That I love.
    I miss. Come back to Brazil Guys!!!!!!!!!!!

  67. B.... ....

    When i've got time to kill, I'm coming back for you

  68. a.... b....

    best line

  69. g.... ....

    Songs by other bands sound so lazy after listening to sliverchair for a bit.

  70. j.... e....

    i'm shocked i didnt kno they made heavy songs after neon ballroom

  71. a.... b....

    And love me for my mind, coz I'm a dangerous heart
    When I've got time to kill I'm coming back for you fav line <3

  72. P.... ....

    he sounds like his old self <3 i do like his angel- like voice in across the night etc.. but he sounds so hot like this

  73. a.... b....

    SILVERCHAIR <3
    IS THE BEST!

  74. G.... ....

    underrated

  75. B.... D....

    te quem fim uma boa musica nessa porra d album ¬¬

  76. J.... ....

    their best song ever.

  77. d.... c....

    MUSICA DO CAPETA O CARALEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE O.o DE MASSA
    \O/ \O/
    AM♥ AM♥ AM♥ ELA
    IHUUUU!!!!
    @dcobain51 << Se tiver interresse segue lá =]

  78. 1.... ....

    my song most definatly

  79. A.... F....

    fuck this is heavy!

  80. M.... 5....

    @TheDEATHofRAP666 yeah, death magnetic is ok, but overproduced. Agreed on Megadeth.

  81. M.... 5....

    @TheDEATHofRAP666 Aaaa, nm.I saw the notice on the website. it's news to me.

  82. M.... 5....

    @TheDEATHofRAP666 I think if i'm not mistaken they are working on a new album. I'm sure it will be a steaming pile. How come it never goes the other way? A band never sucks in the beginning but turns awesome. This is kind of like the fall of Metallica

  83. M.... 5....

    @cdixon5150 i realize my grammar mistakes as well...before anyone comments

  84. M.... 5....

    im no music snob, but this is pure awesome from where i'm sittin'....DIORAMA is a killer F*CK Album and these dudes should be proud as hell of it. I hope there future holds more of this...

  85. b.... ....

    @Daniann1 yeah, i can feel me growing closer to their new stuff. I guess i'm just trapped in the 90's. I just love the music from that time period, such as Silverchair, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, and others.

  86. b.... ....

    honestly, this was the only song i liked on Diorama, this was the first silverchair song i ever heard, and still my favorite to this day, but it sucks that this was the only song that sounded like this on the whole album. But i do love Frog Stomp and Freak Show, and then this song

  87. Y.... C....

    ♥♥♥♥ this whole album!!!!

  88. J.... A....

    This song is beyond amazing. Its makes you remember why you loved frogstomp, not that I don't like the rest of the album but this song is so raw and powerful. Thank you Silverchair.

  89. I.... ....

    this guy is a fucking genius! like an angel trapped in hell... so much feeling...
    it's hell on earh.. to be so complicated, intelligent and sensitive..
    He could be my twin brother... i wish he was...

    I.... ....

    'like an angel trapped in hell' - spot on, budd!

  90. R.... ....

    fukin awesome song too bad this is the only cd verison of song on utube i can find.... glad u put it on here
