Ok, so I had some other lyrics here but.. I took them down. I am in the process of trying to figure out the lyrics of the new Zao cd “A Parade of Chaos” as best I can. Note to anyone who doesn’t know: It can be VERY hard to pick up on what Dan is screaming 😉 So, I am not 100% sure on these lyrics I’m about to post, and there’s one little part I can’t make at all… but I actually have a reason for posting them.
Anyone familiar with Zao is familiar with the song Free the Three. It is the song where “Zao gets political”. Therefore, I think it is a good song for discussion, so, read the following lyrics, then read what I have written below them. (Note: To understand what the song is about, just read the part under “(voiceover)”).
“You failed to do your job
Superstitions coverup
They’ll pay because of your mistakes
They’ll pay because of your mistakes
You lied you lied you ????
You failed you failed you failed everything (2x)
Superstition of your own children
Blinded vision, false ambition
(voiceover)
“May 5th, 1993: Three 8 year old boys disappeared from a West Memphis, Arkansas neighborhood
The next day at 1:45 p.m., their bodies were found in a creek.
The police having had no previous experience in this type of murder
Trampled the site destroying many important artifacts
There was very little effort to preserve the documents
They were inadequately trained.
Even a man was seen smoking a cigarette on the crime scene.
The police decided that the triple homicide was performed by a Satanic cult.
The three questioned and arrested were Damion, Jesse, and Jason.
Put under by the superstitions of foolish policework
and the inadequacy of their investigation.”
can you show me how they’re guilty? (2x)
you liars
you kill us
you failed your superstition
blame it on your own children
with your false ambitions
and your blinded vision
free the three (2x)”
-“Free the Three,” by Zao
Not the happiest of topics, I know, but the song has me thinking about it and all now… I will give my opinion on it later, I want to know what you all think. Discuss.
oh my goodness…
*bottomliptremble* *tear* that’s superwaytotallySAD!!
put a jester hat on – maybe youd get more eprops then *scrunchesuphernoselikeabunny*
*beams* 🙂 whaddya talkin bout? IIII enjoy reading your stuff 🙂 *2thumbsup*
very sad… hadn’t heard about this. i hate this world we live in. well… my thoughts… these police ‘investigator’ people deserve at the VERY least a fine for destroying evidence. these little boys died and no one will ever truly know who did it. if these other 3 kids are innocent… *sighs* the legal system is such a joke sometimes.
Hmm… never heard of them, but those are some pretty great lyrics!
