Underrated Song
The song "Kite" (from U2's 2000 masterpiece, ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND) is such an underrated song. I will let it speak for itself, but I do highly recommend that you put it on right now and turn it up really loud!
KITE
Something
Is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it is
I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did
And hardness
It sets in
You need some protection
The thinner the skin
I want you to know
That you don't need me anymore
I want you to know
You don't need anyone
Or anything at all
Who's to say where the
wind will take you
Who's to say what it
is will break you
I don't know
Which way the wind will blow
Who's to know when the
time has come around
Don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye
It's somewhere I can
taste the salt of the sea
There's a kite blowing
out of control on the
breeze
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
Do you wonder what has happened to me?
I'm a man
I'm not a child
A man who sees
The shadow behind your eyes
Who's to say where the
wind will take you
Who's to say what it
is will break you
I don't know
Where the wind will blow
Who's to know when the
time has come around
I don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye
Did I waste it
Not so much I couldn't taste it
Life should be fragrant
Rooftop to the basement
The last of the rocks stars
When hip-hop drove the big cars
In the time when new media
Was the big idea
What was the big idea
Is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it is
I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did
And hardness
It sets in
You need some protection
The thinner the skin
I want you to know
That you don't need me anymore
I want you to know
You don't need anyone
Or anything at all
Who's to say where the
wind will take you
Who's to say what it
is will break you
I don't know
Which way the wind will blow
Who's to know when the
time has come around
Don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye
It's somewhere I can
taste the salt of the sea
There's a kite blowing
out of control on the
breeze
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
Do you wonder what has happened to me?
I'm a man
I'm not a child
A man who sees
The shadow behind your eyes
Who's to say where the
wind will take you
Who's to say what it
is will break you
I don't know
Where the wind will blow
Who's to know when the
time has come around
I don't want to see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye
Did I waste it
Not so much I couldn't taste it
Life should be fragrant
Rooftop to the basement
The last of the rocks stars
When hip-hop drove the big cars
In the time when new media
Was the big idea
What was the big idea
