"Brain Aneurysm" Kelumpuhan Total yang dialami Ibu Judith Marie membuatnya harus menjalani 27 tahun masa hidup nya di atas kursi roda sampai akhir hayatnya. Pergumulan yang dilewati bersama sang ibu menyisakan Luka yang amat dalam dan terukir jelas di hati James Maynard Keenan. Amarah, kekecewaan dan kepahitan yang begitu kuat mengakar membuatnya jauh terperangkap ke dalam kegelapan pekat. Namun, Ia teringat akan cahaya kecil yang Ibu nya titipkan kepadanya. Perlahan Ia mencoba beranjak dari kegelapan itu sambil di tuntun cahaya kecil 'milik ibu nya' menuju tempat yang lebih terang. Lalu Ia pun menanggalkan beban kepahitan yang telah ia pikul selama ini demi melepaskan pengampunan dan menerima Kedamaian. Kini Ia telah siap untuk Menghantarkan Ibu nya Pulang dengan layak ke pangkuan TUHAN. -- 10,000 Days (Wings Pt. 2) - TOOL • We listen to the tales and romanticize, How we'd follow the path of the hero. • Boast about the day when the rivers overrun, How we rise to the height of our halo. • Listen to the tales as we all rationalize, Our way into the arms of the savior. • Feigning all the trials and the tribulations. None of us have actually been there, Not like you... • Ignorant siblings in the congregation. Gather around spewing sympathy, Spare me... • None of them can even hold a candle up to you. Blinded by choice, these hypocrites won't see. • But enough about the collective Judas. Who could deny you were the one who illuminated Your little piece of the divine? • And this little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me I'm gonna let it shine To guide you safely on your way. • Your way home... • Oh, what are they gonna do when the lights go down? Without you to guide them all to Zion? What are they gonna do when the rivers overrun Other than tremble incessantly? • High is the way, But our eyes are upon the ground. You are the light and the way. They'll only read about. I only pray heaven knows, When to lift you out. • 10,000 days in the fire is long enough. You're going home... • You're the only one who can hold your head up high. Shake your fist at the gates saying, "I've come home now! Fetch me the spirit, the son and the father. Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. • It's time now! My time now! Give me my Give me my wings!" • Give me my [5x] • Give me my wings • You are the light, the way, That they will only read about. • Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance. Burden of proof tossed upon the believers. You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence, Judith Marie, unconditional one. • Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence. Difficult to see you in this light. Please forgive this bold suggestion. Should you see your maker's face tonight, Look him in the eye. Look him in the eye and tell him, "I never lived a lie, never took a life, But surely saved one. • Hallelujah It's time for you to bring me home."  • “Wings for Marie” parts 1 and 2, as well as all of 10,000 Days, was dedicated to lead singer Maynard James Keenan’s mother Judith Marie Gridley. She passed away 3 years prior to the release of the album. • Maynard James Keenan: I think probably the stupidest thing I could have done on 10,000 Days was put myself out there as much as I did with the tracks “Wings for Marie (Part 1)” and “10,000 Days (Wings Part 2).” I’ll never make that mistake again. It just took too much out of me – too much emotionally, mentally, physically – all those manifestations. Those songs were exploited and misconstrued, people were flippant and dismissive. I won’t be doing that anymore. And technically, “Wings” is very difficult to pull off. If any one of us is off, it falls apart and makes that thing tragic, and that’s not a good song for me to have fall apart. It’s just too personal. —via Loudwire • 10,000 Days (Wings Pt. 2) by TOOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJq9y9xPKWs https://genius.com/Tool-10000-days-wings-pt-2-lyrics Powered by Firstory Hosting
