Lyrics:
What are we all living for?
If nothing's worth dying for tonight
Your dreams are not enough
What I need is love
That's worth laying down my life
Sing along,
Just like they taught us
It's soothing your mind this lullaby
No heaven above us
Just mile after mile of empty sky
No right or wrong
Can you imagine?
A world where there's no more need to cry
But no joy or passion
Its seems that the price is much to high
But I am holding out for something real
And though you offered peace
What I really need comes in so much more
Your dreams are not enough
What I need is love that's worth dying for
You say that you're a dreamer
Well I'm a dreamer too
But I wont sing your lullaby
However well intentioned
Its neither good nor true
The pallid dream is just a lie
But I am holding out for something real
And though you offered peace
What I really need comes in so much more
Your dreams are not enough
What I need is love that's worth dying for
What are we all living for
If nothing's worth dying for tonight? Видеоклипы
This song is a direct answer to John Lennon's "Imagine". It talks about how this idea of world peace is not a tangible idea, and furthermore, Lennon's song either discounts or grossly misinterprets this idea of love. A life devoid of love is in essence a life devoid of meaning or purpose. Think about it, not once in "Imagine" is the word love ever used.
When I think of this song, I also tend to think of a cover of "Imagine" by the band A Perfect Circle. It's faithful to the original, but at the same time it's a very weathered-down version of the song, as if to say how everyone knows the lyrics to such a timeless song but little has been done to put forth an effort to creating a peaceful resolve to the world's problems. I encourage you to go listen to it. :)
(The Burnout Revenge soundtrack was awesome, by the way. Found a lot of good bands from that soundtrack; Finch, Emanuel, Billy Talent, Bullet for my Valentine, Unwritten Law, and these guys. :D)
Thanks for sharing your opinion in a thought out manner. Seriously. Few and far between these days. Take care friend :)
so long as there is love there will be war
Nice to know I'm not the only one who heard this from burn out . You should check out ssx 3 and mx vs atv unleashed for similar music and maybe tony hawk underground
Burnout revenge was the game that shaped my taste in music along with nfs most wanted
If you're here for burnout revenge, I seriously recommend you heard the whole album, literally my favorite album. Absolute gold.
I've always loved this song and really disliked "Imagine", a few days ago in my Government class there was this discussion on "Imagine" and so many people were just agreeing with it so blindly, but me being such a quiet guy i just sat there shaking my head wishing I could blast this song out.
Courage Is a necessity in those times my friend.
*BURNOUT REVENGE!!!!!*
"you say that your a dreamer, well i'm a dreamer too, but i wont sing your lullaby......your pallid dream is just a lie" that part gives me chills every time i listen to this song
To be honest, this song puts imagine and Lennon humbly in their place. How well this song was written by a "kid" in a California "punk band" in response to a song from such a legendary song writer baffles me. Dont get me wrong im not bashing on the beetles or Lennon or anything, but it is just a testament to how talented Dustin truly is.
I love everything about this song, the beat, the instrumental , the singers voice and the lyrics specially i read brave new world and I agree with this song
I was more of a hip hop type of guy but once I started getting into Takedown and Revenge I started to like rock a lot more :)
Same
Like what powerman 5000 once said in there song this what happens when world's collide.
No right or wrong
Can you imagine?
A world where there's no more need to cry
But no joy or passion
Its seems that the price is much to high
Been listening to this band since Illusion of Safety. They never cease to amaze. Incredibly talented.
I remember this song from Burnout: Revenge. I also remember screaming along to this song from time to time (and also wrecking my car as a result of doing so) and doing a damn good job of doing so.
I hate how much we have in common, Randy, I really do
What are we all living for?
If nothing's worth dying for tonight
Your dreams are not enough
What I need is love
That's worth laying down my life
This means so much to me.
I don't think that ideologies like nationalism and organized religion are worth dying for at all but I can agree that love is. To truly care enough about a person or cause for good in the world is very admirable. In short, people should care about people not institutions.
Nope, this is the actual version. You probably got yours somewhere else.
Wait what?
@@swinelias Its the power of the old reply system
Burnout: Revenge
Damn. Hard to believe that this is a B-Side. Ranks among their best stuff.
Why wasn't this on the original album release? This is amazing!
2nd Favorite track on Burnout Revenge (After Dance Dance)
...After wake the dead Comeback kid!!!
I've always thought that their B-sides were worthy of making the final cut.
absolutely
It's probably because this was probably first released on the Hopelessly Devoted to You, Vol. 6 compilation from 2006. It's a great 3 disc compilation it comes with 2 CDs and a DVD that includes the music videos for Deadbolt and Betrayal Is A Symptom if I'm recalling the song names correctly.
For those curious the album this was actually published on was Hopelessly Devoted To You Vol. 6. There is no B side to Vheissu
I do agree with you on the point that you have to know how it feels like but I think once we made enough expiriences on the "dark" side of life, we are ready to move on and finally abandon this "darkness" completely. (:
Here I found someone said this, "it was recorded with Vhiessu didn't actually make it on the album"
@MekaShadowlight That's interesting. It sounds more like it would have fitted better on tAitA. Great song.
Jesus is the love you are all looking for!
Mey mays
Im crying to this right now
Is this song a response to "imagine" of John Lennon? Because it really feels like it is.
Nostalgia'd hard.
I love this song
It also appeared on the Burnout: Revenge soundtrack
BURNOUT!!!! awesome game love the songs!!!!
Everyone!!!!!!!
if you want the good quality song, like, perfect quality, do this!
-Go onto the website GrooveShark (it's a free online radio that only plays what you want)
-Type in the 'search music' area of the website "Thrice Lullaby"
-Choose the 3rd one down from the list, or if the order changes, under the "hopelessly devoted to you" album (not the vheissu album, the quality isn't as good)
And add to your current songs!
thumb this up so everyone knows!
So mad it's not on the farewell tour list.
Ya i think Dustin Kensrue is saying, in short, that a world without passion is not a world worth living in and that he feels like the "utopia" Lennon talks about is to "cold" so to speak.
this album is great, its just like the artist in the ambulance but more raw
I first heard this song when I was in 2nd grade on a game called "burnout reveng " on the original Xbox and after I got rid of the Xbox and all my games I recently looked up that games playlist and all the memories came flooding back
That break at 2:40 is just brutal! Just like Burnout! Fuckin Awesome!
The whole song is a rebuttal to "Imagine" By John Lennon. Read or listen to the lyrics of that song, then do the same to this song. Then i think you will understand
Didnt wanna sound that harsh actually. Havent thought about these lyrics in detail enough to be able to judge but this was my first impulse as thats what I was thinking while lying in the sun today. :D
This song is a strange mix of Vheissu and Artist in the Ambulance...I can see why it didn't make it onto Vheissu, but it's pretty good anyway.
ahhhh so much memories
This is very true. By luck I own a copy of Hopelessly Devoted To You Vol.6 and I have always wondered why this song never made it unto a record.
This song appeared on Hopelessly Devoted to You Vol. 6, a compilation released by Hopeless Records in 2006.
Its available on Hopelessly Devoted to you Volume 6 (Punk Comp)
it takes a lot of nerve and intelligence to make a rebuttal to "imagine" but thrice perhaps only thrice can and have pulled it off
I am not sure if they ever released it on one of their studio albums. Its wierd, you can find it on "Hopelessly Devoted to You Vol. 6" Its a complication album.
@Bluejerra Agreed! Damn pre-sale tickets are already out. Gonna wake up early on March 1st and get mine.....
@Bluejerra I'm so with you on that- I thought I'd finally have a chance to hear it live!
Me screaming along to this song is one of the reasons why I got 'Damar-like consequences' in my BSP.
Bu-Bu-Bu-Burnouuuuuuuuuuuuut
exelent very good
the intro is awsome!
burnout revenge anyone?
+Jacob Winston sure
😵
That's where I remember this song from!!!😅
I'm thinking veishu? lullaby? I don't remember playing this when I listened to that album...and I feel like I would've listened to this a LOT more, because it's awesome 😶
then you mentioned burnout, and I'm 😵😄Thanks🏆
+losgryfog completely misspelled vheissu
Hell yeah!
exelent the best
@Bluejerra so right. but you never know, they could play it somewhere down the line. I hope. hell, if that proposed live album for the tour happens, maybe it'll be a promo single for it. again, i hope it happens.
is intersing exelent
@lxlGREENYlxl it is on the "B-side" of Vhiessu
Agree
what album is this off of iv never en it on vheissu
@thrice1987 Yupp! I haven't seen any "official statements" about it, but it's really rather obvious if you look at the lyrics side by side.
this song got me so fuking pumped right now!
@BrightEyedBella Maybe Music Box?
For some reason, it feels like the artist in the ambulance continues dying as thrice gets older.
@RippedSupreme People say that "it is on the "B-side" of Vhiessu." So I guess it is a some special edition of the CD that has bonus songs.
Only good song from thrice ^_^
FUCK YOU 😬😡😤😠
I think this might be the most ignorant comment in all the internet. Congratulations that’s quite an accomplishment 🥳👏
@RippedSupreme
The first version of Vheissu contain 3 tracks who are not on the second version ( most knowing version )
Got it now thanks for the tip, should have propably read the other comments before :D
But I have to say as much as I have always identified with huge parts of thrice's lyrics I dont agree with them on this one.
As I understood it, they are implying that there needs to be sadness and dissatisfaction in order for happyness to work. and that I think is *im sorry* utter bullshit. Thats just a way to justify our idleness. If one REALLY wants to be happy, he can be. That works without any need to cry
@lxlGREENYlxl Ah, I see. Thanks for the info, man. I was gonna buy the album but not without this song ;) Then I tried to download it, and couldn't even find this song there o.O
genial
I download :D
awesome song! Anyone know where i can download this song?
the matrix
I agree with John Lennons sentiments about the world coming together as one but why on earth is abolishing religion necessary for that? What's needed is to respect differences of opinion not hippies saying "I refuse to make peace with people whose spiritual beliefs differ from mine". Besides Jesus already proclaimed a way for the world to come together. He called it the Kingdom of God.
Why can't I find this song on their "vehissu album? Was it made especially for burnout revenge?
This song was make it for the Burnout Revenge Soundtrack.
Por favor alguém saberia me dizer quem toca na abertura desse jogo ou seja no menu inicial?
@thrice1987 People actually were talking about that on the page 4 of the comments of this video.
I heard this song on Burnout Revenge but its not on iTunes, anyone know where to get it?!?!?!?
@thesecretfox1 thanks, found it! there's also a shitty quality version of this floating around limewire..
@MrTweedie1000 Aint that the truth man, I am in the same situation. First heard it then on burnout and only until about the past year, starting getting into their other stuff. I mostly have songs from their Artist in the Ambulance album and a couple more from Vhiessu. Thrice sure is awesome
illusion of safety is a classic also
Not bad... Interesting move to answer to jl imagine. Hmm...
@brooks450 Hey man I was given this so I dont know where to get it from, is it possible for you to rip it from this video?
lmao you forgot to add that jump u missed. i always make that jump but if u make it you should have added *Awesome Air* to it...
BURNOUT :D
@thrice1987 i've thought about that. I also wonder myself, if it's not a response to lucifer's eternal plan to take away people's individual freedoms. just my thought though.
@MrTweedie1000
You're right the song helped me in burnout revenge !!!
This Song was not on Vheissu.
It was a B-side, it was going to be on the album but for whatever reason it didn't make it on there.
BURNOUT REVENGE FTW!!!
Sounds like the dude from Mcfly....
not even as a PS classic?
Burnout Revenge!! :D
Complication album, im pretty sure its compilation album
the intro is so sexy.
Burnout Revenge
@brooks450
Limewire
Burnout revenge for the ps3 unfortunately doesnot exist :(
"No heaven above us
Just mile after mile of empty sky"
Thats quite thrice untypical, as they have quite a lot of lyrics with christian mindset. Or am I just getting this line wrong?
I'm a bit late the party, but it's more Dustin is critiquing John Lennon's 'Imagine'. "Imagine there's no heaven / above us only sky" - "No heaven above us / Just mile after mile of empty sky". He's essentially saying that ideas of a utopia posed by 'Imagine' are hollow and empty, as there is nothing in there to inspire or elevate people with a dream or a divine spark that elevates us to be greater than we are capable.
Long story short, it's totally inline with Thrice's other material once you open the hood.
@cracken9250
I love Dustin but damn is he naive
Mothafuckin' Burnout Revenge. (;
It's a real bummer this didn't make the album or the EP. Too controversial for the atheist drummer I'd bet.
Imagine is a naive song about moral relativism in a world of moral absolutes.
