@Otter: I'm one of the few who never started hating Henry Rollins. Henry is awesome.
I love this song. It's almost my hardcore schizoid anthem except that I won't bite your hand off I promise.
My name's Henry And you're here with me now My life It's a song It's so you won't even let it happen You won't You won't let DAMAGED By attacks I'm evil attacking my mind But you don't mind Cause this scheduled 13 You just sit, down Buy the ticket Wait your turn Can't feel another day Can't get past you I can't see nothin' I'm blind I'm blind I'm blind Hold out your hand to me Give me your hand ..And I'll bite it off DAMAGED! DAMAGED! DAMAGED! I... I don't even care about self-destruction anymore What's the use? I just sit at home alone Cold fingers, gold fingers, in a cold sweat And then I remember I remember a day We'd go for a ride in the country And you'd say.. Sing it boy Do it again Do it again Yes sir Yes sir Yes sir Yes sir oh yes sir yes sir yes Arghh Right now look at me now Look at me now Just shadows I'm just shadows of what I was I just want another thing I couldn't even get by for that I want such ass for DAMAGED I, I'm sorry my friend, I guess I just can't It's nice and cool around here It's nice It's my mind It's my mind that's off guard And no one comes in Nobody comes in Damaged My damage No one comes in Stay out
Please do not stray. I am formulating a final BHS post that will rearrange your brain.
I kept in touch with Henry's life on and off throughout the years, his spoken word stuff, his activism for Gay Rights and WM3, but I didn't know people turned on him. Why?
Great song. Nice share.
That album was my entryway into punk. Back in that year, I got into a fistfight with a guy a few years my senior. We were pretty evenly matched so we gave each other a good pounding. At some point, we just sat there on the ground and looked at each other like - "WTF are we doing this for? It's stupid." And we became instant friends. I was in a metal band at the time but he was into punk and opened me up to the whole scene.
I saw him a few years ago. We talked about the old days. He is in a rockabilly band now. He would have liked this part of the thread too.
