All right, sorry if I seemed to be saying you were the bad guy here, I wasn't going for that. I understand and agree with where you're coming from, if he's saying what the grammar appears to be saying. But I think it's just bad word choice.
I just wanna get out,
Stuck inside of this.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

hey has anyone seen the beer commercial with Not Afraid playing

until today, i had only seen the sum 41 one. but there's an our lady peace one!
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

hehe, yeah, I heard the OLP one, and I spent most of the commercial trying to figure out the song they were playing... then the end came, and i was like, "ohhhh, okay..."

[/nonsensical spam]
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

what was the song?

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

first off, you'll note that i said that "i think," thus making whatever i said right after an opinion. in MY opinion the lyrics in not afraid are better than the lyrics in gravity. it is MY OPINION, you cannot say that what i think or believe is wrong because i believe in it.
and as for your grammar lesson comment, i worked in a newspaper for 6 months, this is my time off...i'm sorry if i let my hair down a little bit...believe it or not but i'm human and occasionally i slack off.

And like I said, quality of the written word is largely objective. I also said that the enjoyment of said written word is subjective. I never said "you are wrong". In fact, I clearly said in a later post that I had a differing point of view, and was explaining my view.

Sorry, didn't know I had to agree with you.
