More quiz insanity
I wanted to do another lyrics quiz. I actually have several groups I wanted to do this with...
1. Are you male or female?
I could have been your sister...
--"Joking"
2. How do people feel about you?
and i wish her insight to battle love's blindness
strength from the milk of human kindness
a safe place for all the pieces that scattered
learn to pretend there's more than love that matters
--"Love Will Come to You"
3. How do you feel about yourself?
how long till my soul gets it right
can any human being ever reach that kind of light
i call on the resting soul of galileo
king of night vision, king of insight
i'm not making a joke, you know me
i take everything so seriously
if we wait for the time till all souls get it right
then at least i know there'll be no nuclear annihilation
in my lifetime i'm still not right
--"Galileo"
4. Describe your love interest?
oh the fear i've known
that i might reap the praise of strangers
and end up on my own
--"Language or the Kiss"
5. What would you be rather doing?
i'm callin' on my good friends today
you know the drive's about an hour away
and we'll be pitching up a tent by the trees
and we'll be wading in the river to our knees
--"Peace Tonight"
6. Describe where you live.
i used to search for reservations and native lands
before i realized everywhere i stand
there have tribal feet running wild as fire
--"Jonas and Ezekial"
7. Describe how you live?
i am alone in a hotel room tonight
i squeeze the sky out but there's not a star appears
begin my studies with this paper and this pencil
and i'm working through the grammar of my fears
oh mercy what i won't give
to have the things that mean the most
not to mean the things i miss
unforgiving the choice still is
the language or the kiss
--"Language or the Kiss"
8. Do you believe in god?
yeah we go to the doctor, we go to the mountains
we look to the children, we drink from the fountains
yeah we go to the bible, we go through the workout
we read up on revival and we stand up for the lookout
there's more than one answer to these questions
pointing me in a crooked line
the less i seek my source for some definitive
the closer i am to fine
--"Closer to Fine"
9. Share a few words of wisdom:
when you learn to love yourself
you will dissolve all the stones that are cast
now you will learn to burn the icing sky
to melt the waxen mask
i said to have the gift of true release
this is a peace that will take you higher
oh i come to you with my offering
i bring you strange fire
--"Strange Fire"
