okay, so I've been feeling all emo lately (not so "slit my wrists" emo, but more of a "boo hoo, i'm fated to die alone" sort of emo) and I was listening to Serj's solo album, Elect The Dead, and I decided to listen to Beethoven's Cunt (even though I heard the beginning of it some time ago and thought it sounded too generic) but I decided to listen to the whole song and I loved it. The instrumental melodies are awesome and the lyrical structure and transitions are genius. I don't really understand the chorus though, maybe it's just there to hyperbolize heartbreak/despair and compare it with the end of the world, or the end of time.

<b>Beethoven's Cunt</b>
<i>"Brushing, touching, feeling on your shoulders,
Believing, appealing, kneeling in your worlds,
Oceans are combined,

Being that I love you so much
In the end they all will say
Breaking someone else's heart again,

Find the little evil perpetrator
And feed him to the hungry alligator
You want it all,
You want it all,
Love is not about the profits
Nor the riches in your dreams,

The arms of time are breaking off,
Civilization is on trial,
The clocks eliminating time
Do you believe in me?

I've been walking through these dead farms
But I... don't... mind,
I've been screaming through these dead
lungs,
But I... can't... find,

Being that I love you so much
In the end they all will say
Breaking someone else's heart again,

Find the little evil perpetrator
And feed him to the hungry alligator
You want it all,
You want it all,
Love is not about the profits
Nor the riches in your dreams,

The arms of time are breaking off,
Civilization is on trial,
The clocks eliminating time
Do you believe in me?...



BUT LATELY I'VE BEEN BLIND!
You leave me all alone! Left in time!
You left me here to die! Left in time!
You leave me all alone, Left in time!

The arms of time are breaking off,
Civilization is on trial,
The clocks eliminating time
Do you believe in NOTHING?!?
...
...
..

...But lately I've been blind...
Leave me all alone... left in time..."</i>
