Je mag het stevige muziek noemen, en dat is het ook 🙂 , maar dat er zit wel degelijk meer achter. De muziek van SOAD, die sowieso erg politiek geëngageerd is, kent ook teksten die een veel diepere lading hebben. Kijk maar eens naar deze tekst van het nummer Aerials:
Life is a waterfall,
We’re one in the river,
And one again after the fall.Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lost ourselves,
But we find it all?Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,And we are the ones that want to chose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose.Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.Life is a waterfall,
We drink from the river,
Then we turn around and put up our walls.Swimming through the void
We hear the word,
We lost ourselves,
But we find it all?Cause we are the ones that want to play,
Always want to go,
But you never want to stay,And we are the ones that want to chose,
Always want to play,
But you never want to lose.Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize.
Aerials, in the sky,
When you lose small mind,
You free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
When you free your eyes,
Eternal prize.
