) "blow-job" at 4:32 and 9:31.
On TGP, "Offer the madman your seat" is actually a better lyric for the song than "Open your eyes and you'll see" considering the song's dealings with alcoholism and feeling trapped, scared, and even insane. Thought it was worth mentioning.

For a long time i sang:<br><b> Live your life surrounded</b> for <b>Let the light surround you</b><br> I still do it.... hehehe
Hehe... Even now, although I've read the lyrics, it seems to me that in "TDS" James sings:
To stare the problem right between the eggs
instead of
To stare the problem right between the eyes
Because these "eyes" really sound like eggs...
To stare the problem right between the eggs
instead of

On "Endless Sacrifice" the first time i heard it i thought it said
"Over the deer stand we try to mess things up" instead of
"Over the distance we try to make sense of"
"Over the deer stand we try to mess things up" instead of

In Under A Glass Moon, at around 6:28, it sounds like James sings:

"Uncanny strange deja vu, but I don't mind"
"I can't eat strange asian food, but I don't mind"
"Uncanny strange deja vu, but I don't mind"
I always thought it was supposed to be
"I sit down with my sunset to see the crimson sunset"
instead of
"I sit down with my son, set to see the crimson sunset".
But I suppose the latter makes more sense.
"I sit down with my sunset to see the crimson sunset"

But I suppose the latter makes more sense.
'A cradle of guts still flowing'
'No praisal of blood still flowing'
(The Killing Hand - When Day & Dream Unite)
I never realized what the real lyrics were and always sang them this way. Quite strange how I got to 'a cradle of guts' instead of 'no praisal of blood'...
