Lyrics: the misheard, misinterpreted and misunderstood

[Izzy]

Ok, this might need some imagination, but I always thought in Dead Star:

 

You used to be everything to me

And now you're tired of fighting

Tired of fighting

Fighting yourself

 

was:

 

You used to be everything to me,

But now you're retarded

So awfully retarded,

I'll fart in your face

 

 

and yes I had to look the real lyrics up because I keep forgetting them

 

[AnnaLu]

this one really confused me the first few times i heard it, I thought that in Soaked, when Matt sings

 

Take shelter and hide forever

 

he was saying

 

Take your shirt off, and hide forever

 

this sounds more credible if you listen to it, you can't really imagine it in writing.

[MattC13]

In Supermassive Black Hole, instead of when Dom says 'INTO THE SUPERMASSIVE', I hear 'OH BABY SUPERMASSIVE'

[naomithegreat]

Ok, this might need some imagination, but I always thought in Dead Star:

 

You used to be everything to me

And now you're tired of fighting

Tired of fighting

Fighting yourself

 

was:

 

You used to be everything to me,

But now you're retarded

So awfully retarded,

I'll fart in your face

 

 

and yes I had to look the real lyrics up because I keep forgetting them

 

I read this and cracked the fuck up... in front of a crowded bus. They all think I'm deranged.

 

best thing I've read all day.

[lolulou]

"I won't let you smell my rib" instead of "I won't let you smother it"

 

brilliant

[Einafets]

In Supermassive Black Hole, instead of when Dom says 'INTO THE SUPERMASSIVE', I hear 'OH BABY SUPERMASSIVE'

 

actually sounds like something Dom would say! :LOL:

[xbroken_ideals]

In Supermassive Black Hole, instead of when Dom says 'INTO THE SUPERMASSIVE', I hear 'OH BABY SUPERMASSIVE'

 

Dom...?

[Gretterati]

"And we'll pwayyyyyyy that thereeeeeee's no gadddd to punnnnnnnish usssssssss and meeeeeeeeegafoneeeeeessss."

[decaydance love]

In "Escape" i never understood the part where he says "your brain needs some assistance"...i always thought it was some kind of random screaming

[lemons]

this is a big one for me because i absolutely love this song. i literally JUST realized this one.

 

i thought it was "i won't remain ungrateful" instead of "our wrongs remain unrectified," even in the acoustic version. and that matt (and chris) just pronounce ungrateful with four syllables.

[Aussie Muser]

In "Escape" i never understood the part where he says "your brain needs some assistance"...i always thought it was some kind of random screaming

 

i thought it was "You're bringing down the system"

 

That doesn't even make fucking sense!

 

[decaydance love]

i thought it was "You're bringing down the system"

 

That doesn't even make fucking sense!

 

 

 

OMG it does sound like that though...i never thought of that

[escapist]

In Supermassive Black Hole, instead of when Dom says 'INTO THE SUPERMASSIVE', I hear 'OH BABY SUPERMASSIVE'

 

When I sing along, I always just go " BLAAAHMMAAAHHTAAA SUPERMASSIVE!"

[spark_]

Somehow I turned "open-minded" in CE into "open my name" which makes no sense whatsoever

[memerdommie]

in NSC, actually. in ''that my love, would be forever". first i heard was "that my voice"

 

but, hell yeah, i love when Matt sing it

[Me3009]

In Darkshines:

'Making my heart feel sore, because it's gay' instead of 'because it's good'. Don't ask.

[Gretterati]

In Escape, "bully from a distance" always sounded like "burning from a distance".

 

In Darkshines:

'Making my heart feel sore, because it's gay' instead of 'because it's good'. Don't ask.

 

This one pops up a LOT

[AnnaLu]

In Darkshines:

'Making my heart feel sore, because it's gay' instead of 'because it's good'. Don't ask.

 

Haha, every now and then i think i've heared that too

[carber]

"It wont be long, before I disturb you in the dark always"

 

 

wats this from again I can't think :L

[Cyndris]

"It wont be long, before I disturb you in the dark always"

 

 

wats this from again I can't think :L

 

Megalomania

[Lauren.]

In CE, I used to think it was 'For one moment, I wish you would hide your stench'. To think of all the times I sung along to it before figuring out what it really was

[abborrenOfCydonia]

In Knights of Cydonia: ''Narwhals gonna take me alive''

 

I love how Matt sings about narwhals

[Larzipan]

In Knights of Cydonia: ''Narwhals gonna take me alive''

 

I love how Matt sings about narwhals

 

NARWHALS! <3

[escapist]

In Escape, "bully from a distance" always sounded like "burning from a distance".

[Hat]

THIS.

WTF, it isn't?
