Strung Out - Ulysses Lyrics






I got trouble on my mind
And it follows me to the place where you reside
If there's breath in my lungs and I still got legs then there'll be these dues to pay
Just when I'm all paid up baby ain't my place to stay around here
I don't mean to bring you down
If I keep it in check say nothing I'll regret can I follow you around
Never wanna be a vampire for your time
With you twisting in the breeze waiting for a chance to break free
To cut the line
If you ask me we ain't got much time
So excuse the mess
It's just pictures in my mind
I need to show you
I need to show you
So you understand
Will you stay
And breathe the fire
Gunna burn this fucking place straight to the ground
There's nothing good inside
How many roads must we take till we know
We had everything we needed from the start
I can tell you it won't be an easy ride
Trouble anywhere that you can hide
Pictures in my mind
I don't wanna be another taking all I can
Just waiting here for some kind of place to make our stand
Will you stay and brave the fire
Gunna burn this whole fucking place alive
When everything here is made to burn
And we set free all we didn't earn
Will know who I am

    I agree, absolute masterpiece of a song! Love every single note of it!

  2. M.... M....

    Every album keeps adding something a little different and blending new styles thus making each album and every song unique. IMO, there will never be another band quite like Strung Out in my lifetime. They seem to keep producing different forms of perfection and then every other year they do it again!

    Now just imagine how incredible the NEXT album is going to be! Strung Out makes music something that becomes a part of your entire life and therefore improves one’s life! Keep on ROCKING because you guys have definitely been on a ROLL ever since your very first album!!!

  3. W.... B....

    I cant stop listening to this song! Soooooo f#cking awesome 😁 This bands so dam good!

  4. J.... B....

    THIS SONG is an absolute Masterpiece of art, i've been following this band for 25 years, since Another day in Paradise-1994 and this band ever kept surprising me by their evolution and skills, Songs of Armor and Devotion is probably the ... BEST album they've made so far, amazing !!!!

    J.... B....

    A mate told me the bass player wrote this after a close friends suicide. The lyrics hit hard

    J.... B....

    @jesse pinkman chris talks about it on You tube

  5. A.... S....

    Kind of a Rufio vibe in it.

    A.... S....

    Adriano Silva welp, that’s insulting.

    A.... S....

    @Jason Shrout Lol!

    A.... S....

    Jason Shrout Hell no! Rufio’s last album was incredible. Reminded me a lot of No Use For A Name.

    A.... S....

    I feel you. Those leads remind me a lot of the newer Rufio stuff for sure.

    A.... S....

    @Stephen Dre The guitar riff at the ending is so awesome I can't even describe it.

  6. E.... A....

    Strung out is such an amazing band great live if I remember correctly I think this is James or Lars Metallicas favorite band go figure maybe Kirk you get the point

    E.... A....

    did they really say that?

    E.... A....

    Cliff Burtons fave band

    E.... A....

    This is definitely not anyone from Metallica’s favourite band 🤣

  7. G.... J....

    More great tunes I wont forget the Strung Out concert with OFWTH and Face to Face what a intense concert at the Starland ballroom

  8. B.... D....

    Best song from the album for me.

  9. H.... F....

    Pure StrungOut!! Thanks guys*

  10. S.... ....

    Damn what happened to Strung Out? This is cheesy af

    S.... ....

    Steve Where have you been? Never heard Lost Motel? Crows? Novella? Sounds right along those lines.

  11. B.... ....

    Mario coins @3:19

  12. D.... S....

    Stop it I can only get so hard

  13. b.... ....

    Certain sadness to this song..as soon as i heard the opening riff i fell in love.
    It reminds me of the old strung out i love and miss..high fives to all SO fans out there..

  14. R.... Z....

    I think the new drummer is noticably playing better because it's his first album with SO. I had a similar experience once of being called up to play for a band I loved. Go for it, brother. Best feeling in the world.

  15. M.... ....

    Great drums! Love it!

  16. S.... ....

    This might just be my new favorite strung out song.

  17. R.... R....

    The one thumbs down is from Jordan.

    R.... R....

    Nah, he was totally cool about the whole thing, at least on social media. I know this is a joke, I just can't help but defend Jordan. Fanboy things.

    R.... R....

    @Eric Sutherland why did he leave?

    R.... R....

    @Zac Atkinson They kicked him out. The vibe I got was that there was a lot of tension and it was a long time coming. They posted a promotional picture for something on Facebook with the new guy in it before even announcing he had left. People made a fuss so they made a post about his departure, kinda throwing some shade at him in it. I'm sure some shit went down that isn't any of my business, but that's all I know.

    R.... R....

    @Zac Atkinson i always wondered the same thing..he seemed like a nice humble dude in his interviews

  18. J.... B....

    Mind = Blown away

  19. T.... G....

    This song would be perfect for an anime opening theme.

    T.... G....

    Tom Guerrero lol wut

  20. E.... A....

    God damn this song is fucking ridiculous thanks fellas good music still exists

  21. f.... ....

    The drums are boring

    f.... ....

    the drums are sick what're you talking about...what else could he have done lol

    f.... ....

    What? They're frenetic, unpredictable, and constantly changing.

    f.... ....

    Jordan?

    f.... ....

    Ryan Rust no this is RJ. Jordan was let go about a year ago

    f.... ....

    Jordan didn't sound this good in his later years, I gotta say.

  22. r.... ....

    Sound a little like Lost Motel... Wich is an AWESOME track! =) Love it!

  23. D.... M....

    This is hands down the best track on the new Album. Damn these guys have raw talent. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of how you get lost in their music and return a bigger fan than before.

    Never stop and keep it up.

    Strung Out for life.

    Santa Barbara is waiting!!

  24. P.... M....

    I got trouble on my mind
    And it follows me to the place where you reside
    If there's breath in my lungs and I still got legs then there'll be these dues to pay
    Just when I'm all paid up baby ain't my place to stay around here
    I don't mean to bring you down
    If I keep it in check say nothing I'll regret can I follow you around
    Never wanna be a vampire for your time
    With you twisting in the breeze waiting for a chance to break free
    To cut the line
    If you ask me we ain't got much time
    So excuse the mess

    I need to show you

    P.... M....

    you always comment on punk , do you like the new strung out?

    P.... M....

    Zac Atkinson hey man! Yeah love everything they do! Very rare that they fail, you diggin it?

  25. C.... T....

    Like a fine wine...

  26. V.... L....

    This kind of track must be the last one on the album, like Matchbook or Andy Warhol. Awesome...

    V.... L....

    Viktor Lavrov definitely could be. There’s a bunch a of great songs that could have closed the album but I’m still happy with the one they chose.

    V.... L....

    Yep u are right..its like a sad closing song...like watching the sun go down

    V.... L....
