Maybe tomorrow you'll leave the house. You get hit and die instantly. Maybe your neighbor forgets the gas on, you light a candle and explode. Maybe tonight you take a bath, slip in the tub and crack your head on the bidet. Maybe a madman shoots you on the street. Maybe you go to the bank and some criminal kills you to show others he's not joking. Maybe you drink a Coke and there's strychnine in it. Maybe some idiot lights a cigarette while you're refueling. Life can be destroyed at any moment by a stroke of bad luck. Don't watch the news always thinking it happens to others, it could happen to you too. Tomorrow. In an hour. Now. What bad luck.
And you're wasting time thinking about what's best for the future, what's the most right or wise thing to do? You're reluctant to do anything, but you do it because tomorrow you'll think, "I did well." And if there's no tomorrow? ...Eh?
Wisdom can turn out to be just a big pile of bullshit. Live for the day and plan the future based on what you want today, don't choose what you want today based on what you believe is better for the future, because today you are here, tomorrow we don't know. We all know it’s like this, these are concepts as true as they are overused, so worn out that we forget them. Out of fear of making mistakes, fear of errors, fear of not caring about anything and doing as we please, fear of going alone towards risk without following the rules of peaceful living. Those who live peacefully, have less fun, and those who die early after living peacefully - if there’s something after death - surely kill themselves with regrets. But we forget, let it go, we're too lazy to take risks, better not to think about it and follow the usual routine. Never risk something that, yes, we like, and maybe even a lot, but it's too complicated to carry on.
The supreme entity governing our lives created Hard Rock in the '70s to remind us we must live, and in the '90s endowed it with distortions and full sound that pumps up the speakers to keep us from stopping. And we just need to remember to give it a listen every now and then, to remind us that life is short, and we must enjoy things when they are here and not regret not having done so when it’s too late. We need to remember to feel to remember to remember. And care little about the rest.
Have you reached the end still alive? Good for you, but it won't last long.
How High? ...Like A Thrill-Ride!
Tracklist Lyrics and Samples
01 Trapeze Freak (04:20)
Workin' on a rusted out '65
Startliner got a quarter to nine
Glue foot - yeah he's stuck on the floor
That's all there is
There ain't no more
Daredevil takin' too much time
SnakeRiver blastin' rocket ride
To the sky said a friend of mine
With some help and my extra wides..
Headin' 90 on a 13
Hey man do you know what I mean?
Silver streak runnin' down my side
In the bushes - better hide!
Super cruiser (x2)
Catalogue got a sell on 9
I dont know, take five
Flat tire, and a busted hose
Where she stops know one knows ..
Super cruiser (x2)
02 Tilt (03:01)
Up on the blocks
cause Ive been hearin' it knock I said..
over and over again
And in my hand,
got oil straight from the pan
Pullin' to the right.. be workin all night
I said, Over and over again
feeling just fine
five for a dime
feeling just fine
five for a dime (5 balls for a dime--in 70's pinball)
and there he goes.. yea only daredevil knows
gotta wired to a higher sound
way above the ground
'round the next turn im shue Ill burn
im lost and found
feeling just fine
five for a dime
feeling just fine
five for a dime
03 Gathering Speed (04:24)
Slight idle like its standing still..
Sit down for a lack up hill
ive never felt quite alive
gear grindin into overdrive
speed gathering flying low
next time I will remember so.....
smile wider then Ive seen in year...
so long.. Ive gotta get outta here..
05 Travel Agent (04:14)
Twenty miles off the ground
Flyin' faster than the speed of sound
maybe catch ya next time around
I'm settin' my eye
chrome molly shes startin to shine
Last time I got quite a surprise
I must be dreamin'
I don't know what I'm seein'
And nobody's buyin'
Man am I tryin' (x2)
Tackin' miles to the end of time
I know this whole road is mine
Leavin' tracks for the rest at night
so far.. this ride is nothing new..
Ive tried to befor what can I do?
Let me know before the ride is through
I must be dreamin'
I don't know what I'm seein'
And nobody's buyin'
Man am I tryin'
07 Space Farm (05:32)
deepspace comes a silver shine..
get your go get mine
our ride was half as bad
not quite what they had
we'll take what we can get
even if its x 3
Ive seen it fly around
I seen it hit the ground
Center sun into the sea
No one rides for Free
we'll take what we can get
even if its x 3
09 Egor (03:38)
Whats this
In front of me...
Its so bright
I cannot see..
Like a mach 2
High ground enforce
Gotta get back..
Get back on course..
My keys... to my car (x 2)
Ive seen.. the tires turn
Ive smelled.. the engine burn
Shift down... handle four
One ten... I got it floored
