I kinda like History Chimes actually. And to be fair I like the Rust except for that God awful chorus. I can see stars shooting........

Someone shoot me.

Maybe I need to put more effort into getting past shit lyrics but honestly, "tell me in biro or quill"! :eek:
I just can't get over that. I can get along fine with Bedbugs or Thorn of Crowns, actually like them but this is just twaddle.
Agree w Rust...

Who knew the lyrics would only get worse from there?

I still have no clue what ventriloquized means.

That was on the Japanese import version. I couldn't cough up the coin needed to purchase it. The previous lyrics I took directly from the American version lyric sheet.

I don't know how I'd feel accepting a slightly illegal version. I'd rather have the full on illegal version.
