Sonic Youth - Schizophrenia Lyrics
[Thurston]
I went away to see an old friend of mine
His sister came over she was out of her mind
She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin
She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in
Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain
She keeps coming closer saying "I can feel it in my bones
Schizophrenia is taking me home"
My Future is static
It's already had it
I could tuck you in
And we can talk about it
I had a dream
And it split the scene
It's coming back to me

Sonic Youth Schizophrenia Comments
Beautiful song
Yo just a reminder
*Dont kill yourself, you'll pull through*
ganggang
shit youtube knows what t fck is going on (reccomendation). tomorrow going to therapy, had a looong fight with myself and now i give up proudly :)
There is lots that make this song/record great --lyrics, tempo, emotionality... but that guitar-sounding-like Bells is So Unique. I have to come back to revisit because it's so unbeleivable beautiful.
Was this song based on Daniel Johnston? I know Sonic Youth has a history with him.
'Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin'. What a line. A lot of people with schizophrenia have obsessions with religion and 'sin'.
Hay un comercial de sk8 skate
I ate a burrito and it gave me shitzophrenia.
love again 2019
Sonic youth were played in the background during of my earliest yrs growing up
Que som nostálgico! 😀
That ending
My best friend killed himself. It's been 17 years. I've aged. He hasn't. Wish I had been a better friend that day.
sorry man
Top five of my SY songs . The Diamond sea will never evaporate
Game wizard I'm sad for you!!!
Don't mind me. Just some asshole trying to promote his subreddit. I'll just fuck right off.

The last minute.
I was misdiagnosed with schizophrenia.......I’m just a horny pothead and a poet. Go figure
My sister and a song.oxoxo
Anybody know if this song was inspired by Kim's experience with her brother's mental health struggles relating to Schizophrenia? i know thurston sings but i wonder if that was the source of inspiration behind it
The way the guitars talk to each other
Great song...btw "schizophrenia" is a demon that can be cast out. For anyone who doesn't know- a demon is harmful being inside you that wants to block you from being blessed. Which sounds better to you- embracing our creator and praying in CHRISTS name & getting instant results if you try to end your sins (wrongdoing), or a (short) lifetime of addiction to "medical" drugs & self-hatred? I know which side I'm on- I hope that my brothers and sisters will join me. Peace to all, regardless of belief- love is the cure to an unsound mind
Fui muito feliz com essa musica.. obrigado por tudo S.Y ❤️
Song dedicated to my girlfriend, I will always be here for you when you're feeling like your world is caving in, I love you Brenna
one of the best albums anytime!!!
still love it!!
The version of this on the year punk broke DVD is outstanding! It's Sonic Youth we're talking about so it gonna be good!.
dave grohl said Everlong drew some inspiration from this song .. in terms of the guitars and chords .. and you can really hear it!
Sonic youth the best
All the sane people dislike this😂😍 🤗
I HAV ScIzOPhReNIa
First heard this on the John Peel Festive 50 in 1987. I was just about to turn 17 and I thought "This is it. This what rock music is supposed to be!"
This music sounds so much better in vinil record, not made for this format
Anyone suffering from a mental illness you have my utmost respect. I hope you find peace in life.
Respect that is given automatically is inauthentic but I understand your message.
Wonder if its possible to hear angels demons etc in your head not really wondering but thought I'd say 2 cents
Sounds alot like modest mouse
wir stehen voll hinter sy, egal wo, reden wir nicht über liebe, enttäuscht mich nicht.
Despite the lyrics being dark, this is the wife n my song... This album brought us together from two very dark places 18 years ago.
And still our fav album to this day, to listen to together.
I think perhaps the Raveonettes May have listened to the intro to this song when they write “Recharge & Revolt”.
I think both songs are fantastic though. Double your pleasure.
wir sind nur anders gepolt. feuerleute. alle rennen weg, wir rennen hin. berufskrankheit.
niemals traurig sein sy. wir warten seit 80 jahren auf die luftwaffe, die kommt nie
2:14 And then an Angel starts to sing
seid getrost, wir haben uns mit der bügelwäsch und plutonium abgesprochen, wir riechen euch droht keine gefahr! 8 uhr 07 unsere zeit.
日本語わかる人いそうにないねえw
new york city hat mich verprügelt, alles gut.
tränen hören wir auch.
ich höre euch, wir sind von der ubootwaffe, wir hören fast alles, außer tränen!
wir konnten unsere jungs am boden halten, die überhaupt nicht einfach zu überzeugen, wir schwören ein, wir müssen mit den amis reden
Now I can hear where Arcade Fire got their influence.
Tried this tuning now i have 4 strings
Can anyone tell me what this art is from? A gig poster?
My future is static...
I am Schizophrenical and this fucking song is awesome, and reflects it perfectly, thank you for the song Sonic Youth!
What else sounds sonically like this? No pun intended. Never got into rock until now..would like to know more.. God bless
*once Steve Shelley joined on drums Sonic Youth started playing in a more [ahem] conventional manner - it's a big call but I'm not even sure that even Daydream Nation as we know it would've been recorded [forbid]*
i love the velvet underground
wir sind von der waffe, mit musik können wir gar nix anfangen, meine freundin schon
Igual que ayer
this and there, there by Radiohead go pretty nicely together
I didn't have a schizophrenia but this song is too depressing
Amazing moments like 2:43 don't happen much in music.
i have testicular cancer
The most amazing band on the planet. Rocks harder than granite and louder than a 737!
I have loved this music since always and a few months ago I was diagnosed with schizophrenia.
Ever need any support feel free to find me on Facebook :)
@Ellis 1998 ty
Vernon Subutex m'amène ici. Pensant à mon frère schizophrène m'oblige d'y revenir. Chanson sublime qui réconforte...
If i gotta hunch... Its coming back to me...
0:07 "look at this photograph"
I think it would be only be fair to expect,sonic youth to write about every imperfection known to mankind.
i want to die
this song shouldn't make me cry but it does
You're shinji you have to
Nostalgia! ✌️😉
phillip k dick!
Personally, I wouldn't be so paranoid if everyone weren't out to get me.
one of my all time favourite Sonic Youth songs. what a band.
My name's Jim Fearn; and I have jimzophernia.
3:40 is when it gets crazy
El amor es lindo cuando es de a dos.
sonic youth literally invented shoegaze and I'm glad for that
Luiza Diniz Ah no. For all intents and purposes, that was The Jesus and Mary Chain’s doing.
A band at the very peak of its powers.
underated , live it sometimes must have had a lighter grip - quite one of their coolest songs altogether i.m.o ^-^
Really good song
I have nihilism . Its actually amazing . Nothing upsets you . Life is good .
Now i see where bmth did take inspiration for drown
This is the euphoric high you have during a rush of endorphines followed by the burnt feeling you feel afterward.
tera me na suze
307 people clearly hate the 90s
Man if 2:44 - 3:55 doesn't sound like most Post Rock crescendos these days...
Que temazo
This is inspired by SY Schizophrenia and they are fans of Joy Division: https://youtu.be/JeemgYF2VTc
hmm u what. Sonic youth is a cool band. I was a fool for not thinking so
The lead guitar that comes in at 3:57 sounds like a lead guitar that’s tired of living...
Interesting fact: when Dave Grohl wrote Everlong for Foo Fighters, he initially dubbed it a "Sonic Youth ripoff" to this song. I guess they do sound kind of similar with the chord progression
Sonic youth was one of Kurt's favorite band maybe that's why dave was inspired
My fave SY song
I bet y'all don't really have scitizofrenia or bipolar or any of that shit. You see,you are just normal,VERY normal and you will be okay. 😊 I promise and swear!!!!!!!
Wish i could say that..normal is a relative term and so it depends on others to try and define..

I have Schizophrenia and live with it
