Don't Listen To A Word You've Heard

UserPostedImage

Written By: Lily Abbot, Justin N, Phil N.

Composed By: Phil N, Justin N.

Description: The song starts off with Lily speaking. You can hear noises in the background like children laughing, waves crashing, cars driving, someone speaking on a megaphone, loud horns and sirens. As she begins singing, you hear an acoustic guitar and a piano being played and Lily sings in a normal voice, that is not too high and not too low. The tempo stays the same throughout the entire song. As Lily sings the last lines and goes back to speaking, the guitar and piano fade and the noises from the beginning start to play and keep playing until the song fades out. This song talks about the importance of not believing everything you hear and being aware of the lies the government tells to make themselves seem like the good guys. A very opinionated, maybe factual, song.

[Lily Speaking]
Open your eyes
Close your ears
Close your ears
Open your eyes
Listen to the words you see
You are blind to what you hear
Listen to the words you see
Do not fear the truth beneath
Reach for roots beneath the trees
Listen to the words you seek
Don't listen to a word they say
Do NOT listen to a word you've heard
Do not listen to a word you've heard
People are people we live for our own
Live how you think not by what you've been told

[Lily]
I've been a fool
I've been a fool
Walking the line with both of my eyes shut
And I'm begging you I'm begging you
Don't listen to a word you've heard don't listen to a word you've heard
This world is full of strangers this world is full of 'hypocrites'
Scratching for their winnings at least I am one to admit
Born in a world relying on gold
I've yet to find someone under control
People are people and we live for our own
Live how you think not by what you've been told
Don't listen to a word you've heard don't listen to a word you've heard
Don't listen to a word you've heard don't listen to a word you've heard
The flag waves up above you for liberty and freedom
And fighting for your nation killing a wive's daughter's husband's son and you're told that
you're being attacked by terrorist invasions but over and over again it is you who points the gun
Hey now don't listen to a word you've heard don't listen to a word you've heard don't listen
to a word you've heard don't listen to a word you've heard.

[Lily Speaking]
If you close your eyes right now
Try to seek a vision you can listen to
A vision of collisions of what you know is true
You can do what you pursue if you only try to
To open your eyes
And listen to the visions colliding with collisions
Collisions on a mission
Risen from what you've listened to
Listen to
No
Don't listen to a word you've heard
Don't listen to a word you've heard
Unless
Unless the word that you've heard is a word that you said
Close your ears to words from out
Unless the word came out your head
Or the word was built with your hands
Close your soul to a voice of a man from a non distant land
Cause that man has a plan to put bullets through your stand
Do you stand under this
Or
Do you stand over this
Do you over stand me
You must not be listening
Its O.K. I understand
Why
I
We
No he,
Told you
But Do
If you have the words inside your self
Then
Listen to the words you hear
Listen to the words you say
Listen to the words you say
Listen to the words you say


OOC: Feel free to comment :)

Lily: That's one of my favorite lines too. I figured the day to celebrate our independence would be just as a great day as any other.
