Muse Tix Today?

We should be getting our MUSE/U2 tickets very soon. Time for a music change.

This is the first MUSE song that I discovered. Shame I didn't know about them before. I don't know why I tend to gravitate towards dark songs and subject matter when it comes to my favorite bands. I did go to HS in the early 90s during the whole grunge time. It definitely had an influence on the music that I like.

Supposedly this is what the songwriter (Matt Bellamy) said about this song - "It's just about feeling that the last moments of your life are running out and... it's more about the emotion itself: being suffocated, feeling that your last chance is being taken away from you by something that's outside of your own power, and you can apply that to society, a relationship, your religion or whatever"

Time is Running Out

I think I'm drowning
Asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
That you've created

You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

You will be the death of me
Yeah, you will be the death of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Now that you know I'm trapped
Sense of elation
You'd never dream of
Breaking this fixation

You will squeeze the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

And our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
Oooooh

You will suck the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

And our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
Ooooohh
