Audioslave : Live at the Quart Festival

Lyrics

1. SET IT OFF

He was standing at the rock
Gathering the fog
Getting there with no directions
And underneath the arch
Turned into a march
And there he found a spot to set this fucker on

Set if off
Set it on my children
Set it right
Set it off
Set it off my children
Allright
Set it off
Set it on my children
Set it fire
Set it off
Set it on my children

Suddenly a shot
Ripped into his heart
He needed some attention
And there he played his card
Going into shock
The last thing that he said was set this fucker on

Set if off
Set it on my children
Set it right
Set it off
Set it off my children
Allright
Set it off
Set it on my children
Set it fire
Set it off
Set it on my children

Alright [6x]

Jesus at the back door
Everything is alright
All we need is some direction
Everytime the wind blows
Everything you don’t know
Turns into a revelation
It all ends up inside your head
Time is wasted

Set if off
Set it on my children
Set it right
Set it off
Set it off my children
Allright
Set it off
Set it on my children
Set it fire
Set it off
Set it on my children

Alright [6x]


2. DOESN'T REMIND ME

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

[Chorus]

The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything


The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So discretely
We won't look back

[Chorus]

The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
If it doesn't remind me of anything


3. GASOLINE

Houses haunted
I just want to go for a ride
Out an on
Thought I’d set this room a light
Left alone
Forever and for crimes unclear
With my patience gone
Someone take me far from here

Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline

New day only
Another day in solitude
Houses honest
Clearly more than I can bare
Drain me all
Before I set my world on fire
I am gone
The sun will never set tonight

Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline

No more forests
Only a can on red
Says danger on it
I have found another way

Burn that gasoline
Yea
Burn that gasoline
Burn it all the way
Burn it all the way


4. OUT OF EXILE

When I first came to this island
That I called by my own name
I was happy in this fortress,
In my exile I remained
But the hours grew so empty
And the ocean sent her waves
In the figure of a woman
And she pulled me out to sea

[Chorus]

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
When you come round you'll make me whole
Send my soul away

On the altar of a sunrise
Was a wedding in the waves
And inside her shown a young light
From her labor I was saved
Though I've traveled long in darkness
In her harvest I'm embraced

[Chorus]

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
When you come round you'll make me whole
Send my soul away

Now the spires and the gables
Grow in orchards to the sky
And the blessings on my table
Multiply and divide

[Chorus]

When you come down to take me home
Send my soul away
Yeah when you come round you'll make me whole
Send my soul away
Yeah when you come down to take me home
When you come round you'll make me whole
Yeah when you come round to take me home
Send my soul away
Send my soul away
Send my soul away
Send my soul away
