When I try I force it out Never looking in only out Now is the time for millions to lose Never the same since I lost you Running me out of town Wishing the best around Would only get off my back Heaven receives you and throws you back Sending a dummy to my God Driving to eat a Carvel cake Somewhere you know isn't where you think Have you gone away already All the good times are on their way Up and down that's how energy stays alive And I wouldn't have it any other way
02. Omission
Paroles - Omission
Omit myself (Take it from your eyes) Omit myself as a favour of God (All my rights are evryone's enemy) Suffer fate cuz it's the only lift you've got Dedicating all of before to now Emphasizing these things you won't allow Never now we need the other (Centralize the force of rot) In your life we take our cover (Echoing what is not) Going nowhere (Take it from your eyes) Going nowhere's the only clear whot (All my rights are evryone's enemy) At being somewhere the fates think you're not Somewhere's hole to divides any way you want Faking now faking who you are Never now we need the other (Centralize the force of rot) In your life I'll take my cover (Echoing what is not) Never now I need the other (And if you're suffering a lot) In your life we take our cover (Try being someone you're not)

Paroles - Regret

04. Ricky
Paroles - Ricky
I was afraid to be me Be anything you want to be I don't blame my week For my not being able to speak Clearly about things I've said before And if it's light outside night will fall And if it's life resolves Everywhere you are in a maze is a lie Anywhere you are on a page you still go to the right Anytime there's no ground below you you're in the sky Anytime you're afraid it's gonna be alright I was a flame in the night I heard what I wanted to hear And the moment I disappeared I grew the size of all outside Cuz I became one with the night And if it's real it's not all there is There's a lot in what appears not to be there at all And you can function as someone besides who you are
05. Second Walk
Paroles - Second Walk
I take a second walk Down the street of fame I've paid it off and paid for it again All these miserable feelings never end But to fall and be down's something I transcend I've been a meal of mine And slid down my throat And all I'm facing is one more way to go Died so many times and then reappeared All death looks like to me is a word that causes fear I'm taking my place In a world with different space No time at all except how you move Be who you are Do what you do Not win or lose
06. Everyperson
Paroles - Everyperson
You take me by the hand A hand's all I feel right now It's all I am It's all that I am You think that I'm a man I beg to differ For I am her as much as I'm me You know this moment in time Is all my life Every day is each day that's past Every person alive is everyone who's died A ship out in the distance Is here if I draw it Multiply time by letting it go by You paint a star You give many years ago New life and it appreciates it You know this moment in time Is all my life Every day is each day that's past Every person alive is everyone who's died
07. - 00 Ghost 27
Paroles - - 00 Ghost 27
You'll make it through the day See things another way and behold Listen to Wednesday's song This night you go home alone How the sane go upright How you look another night You're back under my hat And even knowing that you're a whore Nothing ever meant more Than switching rooms through a door Out into another one Frames flash inward And you know I have seen the world enough I've drowned in my thoughts a lot Deep in rains that swirl above I canceled heaven I concede Another word to say When everything's O.K you go down And pulling up the slack And never coming back An alarm Ringing to set the sun No one ever becomes What others thought they should've been Inside they're what they can see You know I do miss this girl To show I am in a swirl of sun Being what I've got The joy I canceled heaven I concede Everything that I believe I canceled heaven I concede
08. Wednesday's Song
Paroles - Wednesday's Song
I don't need a ride to arrive I don't feel approached any time If you feel a fader on a decline Out of all you've ever been And you won't need time You never need time I don't need every God You see every ghost am I Have we found a phase to be out of Transfer all your thoughts to me And you won't need live We don't need love I don't need this sin to go Down to where all forevers flow Every fate released is revealed slow Never talking back to me Say it out loud I feel this cold I never stay and I never go
09. This Cold
Paroles - This Cold
I don't need a ride to arrive I don't feel approached any time If you feel a fader on a decline Out of all you've ever been And you won't need time You never need time I don't need every God You see every ghost am I Have we found a phase to be out of Transfer all your thoughts to me And you won't need live We don't need love I don't need this sin to go Down to where all forevers flow Every fate released is revealed slow Never talking back to me Say it out loud I feel this cold I never stay and I never go

11. Song To Sing When I'm Lonely
Paroles - Song To Sing When I'm Lonely
A song to play when I'm lonely Win and never play a game again No one to face when I'm falling Holding tight the dreams that never end I'll be you I do I'll be you No one's afraid to be called by another name No one dares to be put down where they don't belong Nowhere's anyone's reason Everything dying and leaving Out with these faults and you make me a baby Faking a movement by no one seeing it No one always finds peace flung No one chooses to beat my pride down Symbols pierce right through me People fail to be drawn up Sunlight to face accumulates Loving pain to be clung to By luminous bodies Only waiting for long signs to be wrong And true to us Out of place in my own time Drowning thinking that I'm dry Holding on to facts that we'll never be proven Faking an actioooon cuz no one's looking Hello when I'm crashing Feeling nothing when my life's flashing before my eyes You should've threw me down Is the content so much

Paroles - The Slaughter
I′ll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
I′ll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
You'll be there in the slaughter
Freeing me when I′m cornered
Being arrested by the mind cops
They′re the only ones worth changing what you do for
And I'll try
to be in line
I guide my fate
And what it′s good for there's no telling
It′s blood
It's a flood
I′ll know her face a mile away
She'll take me straight through that gate
I'll know her face a mile away
She′ll take me straight through that gate
Living there in a flower
You wouldn′t have made it without her
Though she seems to stay in one place
She grows with your life
So cry for time
What's slow is fast at the same time
It comes
to life
And if it dies
You′ll never notice cause it
It slides as it climbs
I'll know her face a mile away
I′ll know her face a mile away
I'll know her face a mile away
And I′ll know my pains a life away
And I'll know my pains a life away
And I'll know my pains a life away
Traduction - The Slaughter
Je reconnaîtrai son visage à un kilomètre
Je reconnaîtrai son visage à un kilomètre
Je reconnaîtrai son visage à un kilomètre
Je reconnaîtrai son visage à un kilomètre
Tu seras dans le massacre
Me libérer quand je suis coincé
S'étant fait arrêté par les flics de l'esprit
Ce sont les seuls pour lesquels il vaut la peine de changer

Commentaire
Évolution logique dans la veine rédemptrice de To Record Only Water for Ten Days, le quatrième effort du guitariste des Red Hot Chili Peppers se révèle son plus étoffé à ce jour. Exploitant cette fois encore l'expérience mystique au quotidien, Frusciante parvient à élargir sa palette musicale tout en exploitant les lignes mélodiques et le ton franchement désespéré qui le caractérisent, ponctuant aussi ses chansons aux structures déroutantes de quelques abstractions sonores habiles, mais parfois longuettes. Entre l'abrutissante douleur et l'irradiante lumière, le musicien semble avoir atteint un improbable équilibre, plaçant aussi les arrangements de cet album sur une corde raide tendue entre l'habituel low-fi et un format de plus en plus pop, proposant du coup une impeccable leçon de funambulisme.
