X Marks The Spot Meaning
| [[Intro] “I was in a really dark place I even thought of packing it in But I just could not bring myself to do it I met an old friend that I had a real connection with And he saw my despair He asked me if I’d like to play with him And as we played I felt, slowly but surely, rock ‘n roll grabbed me by the neck, and I, well…” [Verse 1] You are a man of impeccable taste And you know when the X marks the spot We all need a map for the trail of your thought Where to go, well, the X marks the spot [Pre-Chorus 1] You seem to have a misgiving Hell yeah, you make a living Don’t add bricks to what we’re heaving We would so much Rather enjoy the beach, beer and a fire [Verse 2] You think something somewhere Has a copyright for the world And you’ve signed where the X marks the spot You join a cult, fill the void that you’ve got Deep within where the X marks the spot , [Pre-Chorus 2] There you stand and talk and holler How dark are all your colors When you paint another sunrise You leave out the sun [Chorus] Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away [Verse 3] How well do you know those you’re calling your own? I mean… come on dude! (X marks the spot) Your starving soul in your house of skin and bone You’re an island, the X marks the spot “Testify children, testify.” [Pre-Chorus 2] There you stand and talk and holler How dark are all your colors When you paint another sunrise You leave out the sun [Chorus] Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away , [Interlude] “Rock’n’roll allowed me to join this band And there was a period of time When I hadn’t exactly lost my soul I just didn’t know where I’d put it And I ended up in some very dark places and some dire circumstances Now let me tell you, children I was trying to fill a void in my heart To fill that void I got what I always wanted: Success, prosperity, the admiration I’d wanted as a player I got a place in big shows and traveled the world from end to end And the next of it all, I had this yearning in my heart Yearning in my heart for rock’n’roll.” “I was called to join this band And I was surrounded by good folks there And servants of the rock’n’roll who passed on the love I’ll testify: the fear was in me, I was afraid of everything I can swear I saw my own living heart beating through my shirt.” [Verse 4] You are a circus, but where is the clown? There’s no map, still the X marks the spot [Pre-Chorus 2] There you stand and talk and holler How dark are all your colors When you paint another sunrise You leave out the sun , [Chorus] Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float down Into the night with senior John Barleycorn, aye yai yai! Heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away [Bridge] “Now you children, are you ready to spread the word? Everybody sing, ‘Eo’ – (eo) Everybody say ‘Wohoho’ – (wohoho) Everybody sing ‘Hey-hey’ – (hey hey) ‘Woah-oh’ – (woah-oh) Hey-hey – (hey-hey) ‘Huh?’ – (huh?) [Chorus] Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away [Outro] “And the funny thing was I was like a spiritual baby Running around with diapers on where the X marks the spot I’d given my life to rock’n’roll but I still wasn’t sure Was there rock’n’roll? Is it real?”] |
