Unwind Rewind: U2 on YouTube

Heavy Rock Gods from redbubble
I love the metal riffs, the pain, the brokenness and the march of metaphors that follow:

You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold

But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night

You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night

You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold

All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...

Yes U2, you deserve a place in my altar. Give space, Ludwig and Fredeeric, a god has earned his votive and veneration.

Once again, it’s about a force of nature called love. Resistance is noble but futile. Prepare to be assimilated into the collective swoons and loopy hiccups.
