    LYRICS
    HUMAN SADNESS

    beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, i will be meeting you there
    -Rumi

    put money in my hand
    and i will do the things you want me to
    Vanity… overriding wisdom,
    usually common sense.
    should i delete it,
    you said you'd read it
    you promised you would never ruin it with sequels,
    I wake for you… on and on

    beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
    i will be meeting you there.

    ~
    the moon's a skull, i think it's grinning
    the room is full of people now i think it's spinning
    wanted you… didn't ask for nothing. wait for you… on and on
    and i don't need your tie, i don't need to, tired of saying it.
    we don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor.
    …ahhh, it's all my fault

    never wanna spell it out,
    i just want to say that it is all my fault,
    i could never spit it out,
    i don't wanna fix your tie...
    never want to say we're sad,
    thankful that we got some chance,
    i know you won't get back your time,
    i wish that you could take it back...

    beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
    i will be meeting you there.

    ~
    he wanted it more than me, i suppose
    i was in a rush to wait in a line.
    now i hear echoes of my old self,
    this is not the way to be.
    all at once,
    i lost my way...

    is it not true, the things that we did?
    come here at once and look what they did
    come here shut down and tune in tonite,
    learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
    come here sit down and watch some tv
    mine all mine / wait your turn
    cross my cross / slice his hand
    not your son / not your friend / not your enemy
    i rely on the little things to get me by,
    conscience says "i'm ok",
    you don't hear what they say.
    "he's not my son, search his home"
    off to war,
    it's time to go hide inside

    -
    soft skin,
    weak chin,
    just walk me thru it, tell me what to do i'll do
    hurry hurry, that's my baby
    ohh, do what you can.

    all the time - he waits for me.
    and now we talk from time to time,
    hits you on the head when nobody's there,
    then he says 'come here could you fix my tie?'
    it's never gonna be,
    to be is not the way to be.
    show me where to go don't get angry so quickly,
    fuck depression...

    beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,
    i will be meeting you there

    ~

    understanding is more important than love,
    if not money will always trump justice

    all is lost,
    i'll find my way...
    so i say,
    to be is not to be.
    to be is not the way to be.

And yeah it really does live up to it's title a lot, and oh my god the music video for this is also just amazing. i rarely even care about music videos but the music video for this together with the music is just so artistic and a whole experience. Just this song is much more than just a song to me, it's like more idk i can't explain it, 10/10 masterpiece song
      p.s. i usually get sick of songs that last a very long time, especially ones as long as 10 minutes, that's very long but somehow i can listen to every second of this song on repeat forever. I never get bored, i never get sick of it

    When I first heard this song I was amazed, I loved it right from the start… however I didn’t understand the lyrics, I’m a huge Julian fan but I didn’t realize the depth of his relationship with his father. After I heard the song I watched his fathers documentary “Casablancas-the man who loved women” and when I was watching it, it all came crashing down.. you realize that his father was so wrapped up in his job, and the models, that he completely neglected Julian. He only mentioned Julian once in the damn documentary. Then you realize the “fix your tie” references, once you see his father ALWAYS wore a suit with a tie. Every time he says “hits you on the head when nobody’s there, then he says ‘come here could you fix my tie?’ “ it KILLS me. I love Julian and it hurts my heart that he had to go through this with his father.. and he really talks about it all in this song, along with how corrupted the world is. It really is the definition of “human sadness”.

    The lyric "Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, I will be meeting you there." in this song is actually a quote of Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi, a Turkish-Farsian poet and philosopher who lived in 13th century. He has a quite interesting story. He wrote a lot of poems and books. He had a friend called Shams-e Tabrizi. He was also a philosopher and Rumi's only friend. According to his books and records, they did talking sessions which lasted 20-25 hours without eating or sleeping. He also wrote in that records that he suspects Shams to be a messiah. Also, according to multiple records according his, the city's citizens he lived in hates Shams but loves Rumi. Shams died in 1248, and Rumi said this to him after his passing. Also, after his passing, Rumi opened schools, started to teach childrens and gave himself more into the religion. This guy is interesting.

    This song means so much to me. It's very rare to hear an artwork that lives up to a title as large in scope as "Human Sadness" but this completely lives up to the expectation and explores it with sophistication and depth. The instruments literally sound like they're crying, the lyrics are vague but point towards deep regret and longing.
    The use of Mozarts Requiem for the dead. The subtext of this song, Julians father, their complicated relationship and Julian coming to terms with his fathers passing and his own mortality. The fuzzy, harsh soundscape that is unrelenting in bluntness but still beautiful in melody and production. (much like life is, unrelenting pain but still very beautiful)
    All of it adds to a Journey that doesn't sound ten minutes but like an entire lifetime, ending with "To Be is not To Be" or "To Live is to Die" what a profound statement on the human condition.
    just in every aspect of the word, a Masterpiece.

I don't believe i can put it into word's.. but this song feel's so,, genuine? You can hear the singer's feelings through the song but you cant describe what he's feeling.
    This song has truly captured an amazing feeling.
    When i listen to this i just feel so.. alive.

  • @valleyofthedulls
    @valleyofthedulls 2 года назад +48

    easily my favourite song i’ve ever come across and i feel so lucky to have stumbled across this and the voidz.
    when i first heard it, i didn’t really understand what i was listening to because it was so far removed from anything else i’ve ever heard. what first captured me, aside from the bass line, was julian’s vocal distortion and how it blended/became a part of the instrumentation. this was exciting in and of itself because again, maybe i’m musically sheltered, but i hadn’t ever come across such a clever arrangement.
    then there’s some of the lyrics: “don’t empty out your canteen on the desert floor” which my analysis of that phrase is something to the effect of: “don’t pour and pour your energy into something/someone that will just take all you have and remain unchanged despite you depleting all your resources” i love how the lyrics follow with julian belting out “it’s all my fault” which really drove the whole passage home for me.
    then there’s all the instrumentation - the gritty, screeching, wailing guitars and the complete 180 of a tempo change into the second portion of the piece - all purposefully emotional. i felt like julian and the boys knew exactly what they were doing here with all the sound and intended to demonstrate yearning, grief, anger, resentment (the spectrum of human sadness) through their instruments in this song. a total personification of sadness which was a wild realization for me.
    i won’t lie, when i first heard this piece and started coming back to listen again and again, i only liked a few passages and found the whole song to be really overwhelming and muddled. after a few more listens, i vividly remember some kind of haze lifting and it was like i really *heard* what was happening for the first time which was an incredible experience.
    anyways, i didn’t intend to turn this into a complete review, but it’s been years and i wanted to write out all my feelings about this piece. i’m certain i won’t ever forget this song.

    Lyrics:
    Put money in my hand and I will do the things you want me to
    Vanity overriding wisdom, usually common sense
    Should I delete it, you said you'd read it
    You promised you would never ruin it with sequels
    I wait for you on and on
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a-
    The moon's a skull, I think it's grinning
    The room is full of people now I think it's spinning
    Wanted you, didn't ask for nothing
    Wait for you on and on
    And I don't need your tie, I don't need to, tired of saying it
    We don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on the desert floor
    Ahhh, it's all my fault
    Never wanna spell it out, I just want to say that it is all my fault
    I could never spit it out, I don't wanna fix your tie
    Never want to say we're sad, thankful that we got some chance
    I know you won't get back your time, I wish that you could take it back
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    He wanted it more than me, I suppose
    I was in a rush to wait in a line
    Now I hear echoes of my old self
    This is not the way to be
    All at once, I lost my way
    Is it not true, the things that we did?
    Come here at once and look what they did
    Come here shut down and tune in tonight
    Learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
    Come here sit down and watch some TV
    Mine all mine, wait your turn
    Cross my cross, slice his hand
    Not your son, not your friend, not your enemy
    I rely on the little things to get me by, conscience says "I'm ok"
    You don't hear what they say "He's not my son, search his home"
    Off to war, it's time to go hide inside
    Soft skin, weak chin
    Just walk me through it, tell me what to do I'll do it
    Hurry hurry, that's my baby, ohh, do what you can
    All the time, he waits for me
    And now we talk from time to time
    Hits you on the head when nobody's there
    Then he says "Come here could you fix my tie?"
    It's never gonna be to be is not the way to be
    Show me where to go don't get angry so quickly, fuck depression
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
    I will be meeting you there
    Understanding is more important than love
    If not money will always trump justice
    All is lost, I'll find my way
    So I say to be is not to be, to be is not the way to be

    this song is art to my ears, I've become so obsessed with it that I listen to it every single day, it has been like this for months. This song is like a spell. It has taken over my whole entire life. It never gets old. I just can't stop listening. It's so powerful, amazing.

    This song feels like a representation of a mental illness or depression where things change and make you feel unsettled and worried about what's to come, going through it feels like a roller coaster but towards the end you start to feel more at ease and the peacfull melody comes out. You learn to live with or overcome the problems that you thought held you down and you are proud of what you have become. You have to except the cards you are delt and find ways to over come them, it will get better but it will take longer if you refuse to get help.

    I want to get a speaker in my bathroom & blast this while taking a shower in the dark. That sounds like the mood of this song.

    perfect use of Mozart's requiem - that specific part in introitus was always uniquely haunting and melancholic to me

    This is fucking amazing! Seriously, this is best single I've heard all year. I haven't ever heard anything like this outta Julian before, and I love it so much. The whole thing builds up. He has not let me down yet. I love that he always does what he wants, and still ends up being amazing. I'll forever be a Julian fan. Can't wait for this record in my hands!

    I love how when the guitar comes on, it kind of sounds, actually emotional. like someone is pouring their heart out on those strings.

    Its like Casablancas thought of all the people who are still slaves to their expectations of how he should sound, and spit on them. (but really, he just does w/e he wants and feels)
    Anyways, lots of catchy stuff in here. Very happy he made this song... shame so many people are quick to scream 'conceded'

    • @smokelakes
      @smokelakes 10 лет назад +8

      Okay, listened to the song 3 times already. Really loving it... so better hold off to listen to it again until the album is released

      smokelakes wow great comment, I heard this song like 10 in row times yesterday while doing something else. It grows on you so much. You start to look at it less messy then at the beginning, you find harmonies, structures, and melodies. Pure genius. That's just my opinion anyways.

    I love it. I LOVE IT. Am I the only one who's in love with this? I'm not even a fan of experimental music (if that's how you can call this, I don't want to enter some dumb music genre discussion), but this is... so peaceful, so nostalgic, like I can see myself sleeping to this. It creates lots of VHS images in my head which I think was the intention. It also reminds me of vaporwave which I'm currently listening to. Julian's distorted voice sounds beautiful too. I can't wait to hear the entire album!

    • @Alight86
      @Alight86 10 лет назад +9

      peaceful? O_O woah, i think this song is about a total different feeling, maybe the intention is chasing peace, but not enhancing peace with the song sounds and lyrics, as it's tumultuous... it seems like it's being enhancing bad feelings to dismiss them...

    • @Necrofantasiaaa
      @Necrofantasiaaa 10 лет назад +11

      Alight86 You're right. Maybe peaceful wasn't the word, but relaxing. It relaxes me, that's what I meant. Although it also makes me feel anxious, but I like it.
      As for the lyrics... well, they've been written by Julian, right? It's usually hard to interpret his lyrics, you don't get more than the "feeling" to them, which in this case it's depressing. I'd like to read an interesting interpretation of this lyrics, though.

    • @cawabunga360
      @cawabunga360 10 лет назад

      Kai Kwon no you are not the only one, my parts 4:07-5:13 (peaceful bliss) and also 7:00-7:50 (no comment)

    • @Necrofantasiaaa
      @Necrofantasiaaa 10 лет назад +10

      cawabunga360 I agree, there's no comment for 7:00-7:50. Although I think my favourite part is the beginning. Dat bass line stole my heart since the first time I heard the preview of the album.

    • @Necrofantasiaaa
      @Necrofantasiaaa 10 лет назад +6

      ***** I understand it too but I wish people would appreciate this, because I don't think it's "overdone". I don't care about everyone liking experimental music, I'd just like Julian's intentions to be conveyed properly (I know I'm no one to say this tho lol). I've listened to noisy, shitty experimental music which I can't stand, and because of that I know this is something else. There is melody, there are feelings, the entire song is connected by the same bass line. I'm not a music expert but I don't think this is bad, apart from liking it or not.

    This album is actually going to get a 10/10 reissue in 10 years from p4k. This album is ahead of its time and people who misunderstand it will tell you "its just studio wankery, its very self indulgent" ect... the kind of criticisms that someone unable to appreciate and enjoy the most forward thinking album in a decade. I'm just here to give you a heads up.
