"He spat in my face again, and I don't want to die here.
You know that dream when your feet won't move,
you want to come but your body won't let you.
He steals it from me."
As the husband of someone who was terribly abused in past relationships, I have the deepest sympathy and highest respect for anyone who has struggled with and survived abuse.
Do you know what she's singing? I suspect the "overclocking" was intentional and probably required to make this song the scary little gem it is.
Yes, the style is relevant to the lyrics, and when and why did people start using the word "overclock" as a verb to describe singing? I'm sure some "journalist" from Rolling Stone magazine used it to describe someone, but I've seen it in these comment threads a few times. Aside from the word being a computer term, it means to speed up performance or processes at a rate faster than recommended. I can see how one could translate the term as meaning "intensify", but still, it refers to speed not audible volume. I guess it's just a stylistic annoyance to me.
Is it, because the term "fuck" appears (better: WOULD appear)?
I am sorry, I am REALLY disappointed by this move.
Cheers
I want you to, play 'Come together' next.
I watch you plant the seed

I want you to COME Doesn't get much more blatant than that.

The idea comes from Snow Crash. The same book that gave us the term avatar! Check it out. A great book, which is full of really interesting ideas. Google named one of its systems after one in the book.
she really puts the emphasis on come
Never read all of the lyrics until now. Chilling and moving.

We hold the dubious distinction of possessing the highest rate of domestic abuse in any state in the US at 25%. Nobody talks about the sudden appearance of black eyes. It's none of our business. It's a personal matter. Boundaries. Our silence tolerates domestic violence.
And a nice time
Thanks
