Mainly in March – 2019 – Song Lyric Sunday – Animals

Posted on March 10, 2019 by scr4pl80

I am not a fan of the spring forward time change and definitely don’t like it on my birthday! 

Today’s prompt for the #SLS is animal – thanks Jim – and I’m going with the song “Raised By Wolves” by U2.  This was on the Songs of Innocence album which was released by Apple for free to everyone who had iTunes.  I remember at the time there was some controversy about this because there were people who said they didn’t like U2 and didn’t want to be “forced” to listen to it or have it take up space on their devices or whatever.  For me, while I have liked a few U2 songs, I’m not a big fan but I took a listen since it was free and I really liked some of the songs.  This is one of them.

Raised by Wolves
U2
Face down on a broken street
There’s a man in the corner
In a pool of misery
I’m in white van
As a red sea covers the ground
Metal crash
I can’t tell what it is
But I take a look
And now I’m sorry I did
5:30 on a Friday night
Thirty three good people cut down
I don’t believe anymore
I don’t believe anymore
Face down on a pillow of shame
There are some girls with a needle
Tryin’ to spell my name
My body’s not a canvas
My body’s now a toilet wall
I don’t believe anymore
I don’t believe anymore
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
Raised by wolves
We were raised by wolves
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
If I open my eyes
You disappear
Running wild
Running wild
Boy sees his father
Crushed under the weight
Of a cross in a passion
Where the passion is hate
Blue mink Ford
I’m gonna detonate in your den
Blood in the house
Blood on the street
The worst things in the world
Are justified by belief
Registration 1385-WZ
I don’t believe anymore
I don’t believe anymore
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
Raised by wolves
We were raised by wolves
Raised by wolves
Stronger than fear
If I open my eyes
You disappear
Running wild
Songwriters: Adam Clayton / Dave Evans / Larry Mullen / Paul David Hewson

This is a pretty cool video. 

We haven’t seen U2 in concert but I hear they put on a spectacular show. 

And that’s your Song Lyric Sunday for March 10.  I’m hoping to get some more things moved into the new studio today.  Hopefully the rain will stay away for a while.

    Happy belated birthday. Wolves are one of my favorite animals. We have a wolf sanctuary near us that I have visited many times. I think it’s time to visit with my grandsons.

    Well, this is a new one for me, too, even though I’ve heard lots of their songs and really like them. Good video, too. I’ve been to one of their laser shows at our planetarium here, and it is sooo good! If you ever get a chance, go see it! 🙂

    Not a fan of Daylight Savings Time. And I agree, it’s not fair to have your birthday fall on a day that is one hour short. If it’s not one thing, it’s another…

    Nice choice…I’m kind of stuck on this SLS. Happy Birthday, and I wish it were sunny and warmer ❤ Happy Monday

      Yeah, animals are not high on my priority list so it wasn’t the easiest for me either. We’ve got some sun today but it is not very warm!

    Happy B-Day! Sorry springing forward messed with your special day. I listen to this song as I walk in the mornings. U2 forced the entire album to my iPod years ago and it migrated to my phone. For some reason when I press play “Raised by Wolves” is first up.

    Happy birthday Janet. I always liked U2, but I really don’t know all that much about them. You are right, this is a cool video.
