Timber Timbre - Bad Ritual Lyrics

i LOVE felling people about this band because they never know who they are, and i have such fun explaining just how insanely intoxicating their music is.

So many messages about needles and heroin a poltergeist in the frame of the bed that feeling you get when your melting off that boy lmao

nice dropsounds

Marvelous

This song is great

This would be great for the opening scene of a horror movie

I always thought it's
"I'll think of you with *thirst*
I could not smother out that fire in my head"

I fell in love, it's my bad ritual buddy

who else caught the drugstore cowboys reference

Hat on the bed?

Greetings! I'm your host Dr. Wolfula!

i enjoy the comments on this video, to each person there is a different meaning of this song. It's intriguing to see how others interpret music. I love this song and Timber Timbre. It's nice to see a comment section of people feeling the music for once.

😌🎧

Anyone else catch the drugstore cowboys movie reference " there is a hat on the bed the clock starts ticking"

This song reminds me of when I quit smoking

Listening to this, thinkin about quitting alcohol

Love it

It's about drugs

Radio Nova oslo norway brought me here :)

There’s a hair on the bed
The clock has stopped ticking
And nothing remotely romantic has been said
Let’s not pass on the steps
Let’s take the season very easy
Let’s take pills, salt water, let’s keep looking ahead
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down
There is a history in pictures
There is evidence in boxes
There is proof of your love for him, long after it's dead
And every creak, a trigger
I will think of you with others
I could not smother out that fire in my head
And I saw your levitating chair
I found your long blond hairs
I felt your poltergeist presence in the frame of the bed
Every creak is a trigger
I will think of you with others
I found depravity convinced me I may no longer care
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down
Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual
Oh, but it calms me down

I love timber timbre and their songs!

This song is blank space. Everyone can full it with their experuences, for someone alchohol, for someone heroin, and for other one depression.

Why can't I dislike and like this at the same time?

what a great song!

singer reminds me of roger waters, especially from the wall

Timber Timbre just finds that part of my brain where it's darkest and makes it home.

Hi I'm Doctor Wolfula. When I'm not putting super glue inside of your contact lenses, I'm here at the Wolfulair! Reviewing movies..

Benny TheOwl lol same reason I'm here

Janis_Ian_ From_Mean_Gurlz me too

Savagebucs Dr wolfula has great taste in music. same with nyx

Ive heard about you in some other comment section. How small the internet is

muita lsd mas foda

"I could not smother out that fire in my head"

this songs about jerking off

"And I saw your levitating chair
I found your long blond hairs
I felt your poltergeist presence in the frame of the bed"
gave me chills.

Is this Song only about trying to find evidence that your partner doesnt love you? Cause I love playing this song when Im on drugs. Or am I totally off?!!

pretty sure thats it bro, even though i think its more about him not letting go of a girl, wife whatever, cause he's so used to it.. very if not the most depressing feeling u can feel, first hand bro.

what is it all about?

alcohol, cheating, painful partings, etc

every night with a blade in my hand I listen to this song. its a bad bad ritual, but it calms me down. only way I can get to sleep any more.

this song is fucking amazing

my cat brought me here

I thought this song was about killing people.

Yoshikage Kira.

My head is full of Timber

My fingers brought me here.

Corey Niles




Respectée man

HEMLOCK GROVE BROUGHT ME HERE

Hemlock Grove brought me here.

where can i find bass or guitar TABs for this song?

or chords

1:05 is that Cold Specks ? :O I'm sure it's her, because this theme/ mood would fits her well. Nice creation here btw. 

This is such an awesome song. I've played it way to many times ahah

It's astounding that barely anybody listens to Timber Timbre.
This song is absolutely beautiful.

I just found them and I'm surprised how much I like them. I've never found a band where I've enjoyed almost all of their songs.

favoritefavoritefavorite!...Well at least one of my faves from Timber Timbre.

to me it is about heroin

That's what I thought it was about. The act of shooting up is so very ritualistic....and SO very bad. But it calms one down.

anyone know what kind of car that is????

Looks like a Ford Falcon

no my dear, he's masturbating.

songs def about setting bums on fire..

Pretty sure its about biting your nails. That or picking your nose and eating it.

kick ass video

Really thankful for Allison Harvard's tumblr.

Thank you Timber Timbre listeners for actually talking about what you like about the song and what it means rather than bitching about music these days...

got the pleasure of listening to this band live while they practised for a gig, i must say even better in person. Look forward to catching a show in the future cause these guys(and gal) are the real deal;)

Was gonna comment...until you did!

I like this :)

haha this played on hemlock grove was so cool to see.

Its not drugs he is talking about but his experience in his situation is like that of a drug perhaps.

I eat cheese and cry sometimes. this band sounds like satan

This is pretty easy and poplike stuff compared to REAL experimental.
It's good, I really like Timbre Timbre, but stop throwing around with random stuff,

What’s real experimental??

Sucks to hear. How are things now, 7 months later?

Those shoes are to die for!

I think she died.

Nah, there's only one possible reference to drugs with the lyric "...let's take pills...", and it's still pretty ambiguous. It's clearly about the individual experiences themselves, and how they bring back the memories of the 'good days'. He either re-lives them through re-doing them, or just by remembering the experiences, and hence it all becomes a "bad ritual". It's not healthy, but it keeps him going.

What are you talking about must of never done boy that's not a bad thing but js maybe thats nit what this song is about but its very promising to me

either that or drugs

I was thinking it was smoking. Occam's Razor states CLEARLY I'M RIGHT.
I'm just kiddin' man, that's a pretty cool take on it!

My body is ready

Get to see these guys live tonight, so excited!

Its about a guy who fantasizes about murdering his wife, its his bad ritual.

Wow! Dès les premières secondes j'ai trippé sur cette toune... et alors le band!

Tin eared.

If you are here is because you like great music.

hauntingly delightful

Does the car interior remind anyone else of Radiohead's video for Karma Police?

@mrblackshores what music isnt novelty music? your always only paying for what image a band produces anyway. this is such a unique image though

I dislike 3 people...

theres a reason this video has zero dislikes

@cheriesaysdrop I'm always ready for bands like this. I'm someone.

Love this song.

@Mineav ding ding ding we have a winner!

@PowerQuebecois fucking with cherie... she's been ignoring me and my bro... smoking meth... listening to hipster music lol

@MrBlackshores What ?

@cheriesaysdrop

Cherie Lopez, you're RETARDED! This is NOVELTY MUSIC!!! Can you not HEAR IT? Or are you 20 yrs old or something?????!?!?!?!

@KWIfilms I heard it was about how a man thinks after he gets dumped ...

@KWIfilms I think it's about about a guy who's a bit obsessed and can't move on from a previous relationship, so he relives the little things about her that becomes a 'bad ritual', but it keeps him sane ('calms him down'). Something like that.

This album is amazing...I celebrate bands like Timber Timbre, who are restoring my faith in music. Love this video too.

Twin peaks'smood

@SuperTiptop001, the car is a white 1964 ford galaxie and is owned by my brother in law..you may see it at some shows if you are in the london area as it is used as a show vehicle.

These guys are for real, very unique, only wish I would've caught there concert two months back..

Utterly impressed.

No one's ready for this band yet,
I can tell. Either that, or they're
completely frightened.

Beautiful.

Always chilling.

Singer reminds me of Roger waters o_O

This is a great SONG and VID
