Abandoned Pools - Flouresein Lyrics






Wipe away the summer air
You don't wanna see
That's you in that Photograph from 1973
And you don't even know me

God only Knows I wanna be
The other side of misery
Gimme a plate of Fluorescein
I'm gonna paint an ugly scene
All of the things I wanna say
Can't get a word out anyway
Falling away after today
Nothing to lose so come what may

Don't wake me

You got away from me somehow
And all we tried to be
Everything is different now
The mind's eye fails to see
And all we know is TV

  1. T.... ....

    Still listening to this song everyday at work.

  2. M.... B....

    I love this album but it makes me sad guess that's why I'm back to it going through a 7 year break up. This album the whole thing makes you feel. You realize you are alive.

  3. C.... 1....

    Catra's song.

  4. k.... ....

    dont waaaaake meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  5. B.... ....

    This album is seriously one of the most underappreciated things from 2001, honestly sounds 3-4 years before it's time

  6. D.... ....

    clone high vibes off every song in this album

  7. L.... ....

    These guys give me nostalgia of when I was in middle school and I just found them a few months ago...I left middle school 5 years ago now lol

  8. K.... S....

    you're a failure NSA electrode helmet spying legal rape

    S.... W....

    im fucked up and i dont care what happens to me no more.

  16. E.... M....

    saw them in Portland opening for Garbage. One of the LOUDEST opening acts I've ever heard. Fucking rocked! Later that week they were supposed to be on Jay Leno. Watched the show, some sort of band drama must have occurred because the show aborted the band. very disappointed and still remember it clearly. I was mesmerized by their show, they are a fucking awesome band. wtf happend!?

  17. n.... ....

    funny because you would use flourisene to trace leaks in a abandoned pool lmao

    Favorite album of all time. Tommy Walter is such an underrated musician.

  20. C.... 1....

    Wow, I haven't heard this in over 15 years!!! I remember this easily being the best track on the album.

  21. t.... r....

    it makes my heart break to see how criminally underrated tommy walter's brilliance is. this album is almost spotless and one of the greatest pieces of alternative rock I have ever heard

  22. A.... H....

    this is my favorite band from highschool. I got so many chick's to these hits.

  23. T.... ....

    Nice...😌

  24. c.... q....

    I love this song

    c.... q....

    casualy upvoting my own comment after 11 months because I love this song

  25. A.... H....

    Had no idea this band was so good

    A.... H....

    +Armand Holloway It's actually just one dude who writes/records. Kinda like NiN, he only has a band for live shows. Not trying to call you out or rudely correct you, just thought you might find that interesting.

    And yeah, this whole fucking album is fantastic.

  26. T.... ....

    such a deadly album, can't believe it did not explode.

    T.... ....

    +ThcDinobot Deadlier than AIDS and catchier than herpes.

    T.... ....

    Thats because we hear what they want us too

    T.... ....

    Right????

  27. Y.... O....

    what's this genre called?

    Y.... O....

    I'd just call it alt rock but that'a a very broad term. Look up Placebo if you like it, they're very similar.

    Y.... O....

    +Yasuna Oribe hard indie rock?

    Y.... O....

    Depresscore

    Y.... O....

    alternative/grunge

    Y.... O....

    White boy angst 🤘

  28. s.... ....

    years pass, but i'm still in love with this song and always return.

  29. G.... S....

    I love these guys, awesome music.

  30. T.... V....

    Classic

  31. C.... ....

    You should try removing the x's from your name before typing. It might actually make you sound less like a whiny, angst-filled, 3rd wave emo kid who thinks his 4th-grade quips referring to homosexuality as though it's shameful are clever.

    Then again, probably not.

    C.... ....

    nah 'x's are cool

  32. t.... ....

    Get off your high horse, he's the one who decided to release his music under a band name. Yeah, I know he's responsible for pretty much everything, but it's not called The Tommy Walter Band or something like that. How about just being happy this music is getting some much deserved recognition.

  33. S.... A....

    >This band
    >These guys
    >They

    All of you realize all of this music was written and arranged by one guy, right?

    The "band" only shows up in the studio/on the road to perform live renditions. In short, Abandoned Pools is one guy, by the name of Tommy Walter.

    Thanks for showing your ignorance, poser fans who were too busy claiming how much they loved the band to even take five seconds to wikipedia the band. Tommy deserves better.

    S.... A....

    A 1 man band is still considered a band though

    S.... A....

    'posers'? can't you just let people enjoy a work? this information would be interesting and somewhat enlightening to them on its own, so thanks for letting the comments section know. however, people can 'claim' to love a band regardless. if someone likes music by a certain artist, it's okay not to know a thing about them. something like this would spur someone to find out more.

    S.... A....

    Wow that’s crazy. I never knew that. He does deserve better

  34. B.... K....

    should be right next to this song on youtube :)

  35. x.... ....

    I remember listening to these guys in middle school.. Now im 25, and still listening to this.. how many memories it brings back, is just insanely refreshing.. how i wish i could go back in time to listen to it again..

  36. R.... ....

    I love this band so much. In fact, I'm actually THRILLED that they never went mainstream, because the radio woulda tarnished them just like they do every other band.

    R.... ....

    RUBYsoHo230 agree

    R.... ....

    Same here, but I wouldn't of minded just a bit more recognition

  37. T.... ....

    Josh Freese you are a master at your craft

    T.... ....

    ThaTruth223 totally! Follow him on IG. He’s the man.

  38. G.... ....

    hi! i will be uploading abandoned pools songs on my channel! have a good day :D

    G.... ....

    You lied

    G.... ....

    @Leon The Strange sorry , i had a lot of problems, but i still want to do that project. im still in love with tommy´s work. so maybe im starting the uploads in a few months.

  39. d.... b....

    Put Fluorescein into a abandoned pool ?

    d.... b....

    damien bottaz to trace leaks

  40. m.... ....

    That would be awsome!

  41. B.... G....

    Unmatched display of emotion by this band, this is what love must feel like.

  42. S.... K....

    He sounds like a mix of Billie Joe Armstrong and Chester Bennington :D

  43. T.... ....

    How this album found me in small town Arkansas 9 years ago I'll never know. But I'm glad it did. This is easily one of the most underrated albums ever made.

  44. C.... ....

    Well, this is an awkward family reunion.

  45. k.... ....

    Bought their shirt and their first 2 albums. Both got signed by Tommy. Truly underrated band

  46. T.... ....

    Tommy walter is my dad, he married my mom.
    Uncle? O_o

  47. m.... ....

    God I love his voice!!

  48. T.... ....

    I really cant figure out why these guys did not blow up.They had a good selling with clown high. I mean the first time I saw clone high. I watched the end credits and found out who they were and bought the cd. I mean I voice so clean clear and unique. should be heard a little more.

  49. A.... ....

    you actually remember that show?! bless you

  50. S.... B....

    Then you are a very fortunate person! I'd love to meet him. One of my musical heroes.

  51. V.... ....

    i love the bass, is amazing... and the lyrics too...

  52. D.... M....

    the singer KINDA KINDA KINDA reminds me of Leon from Resident Evil.

  66. M.... R....

    I heard Rich who is the Guitar playing and singer in the Ladykillers, loves this band!

    They do rock! :D

  67. K.... N....

    @thedarkestvein I heard it on my friends iPod. I will see about maybe getting it on Youtube. I think He might have torrented the first album and it came with it. Or you could look on Frostwire.

  68. J.... G....

    Someone really needs to find out what the bass line is for this song. I so want to play it!

  69. B.... F....

    Tommy was in Eels. Watch 'Novocaine for the Soul'

  70. K.... N....

    This is one of my favorite songs by him. I heard an acoustic version of it and it is incredible.

  71. d.... ....

    @anodeforcruelty1 : Same here. This album was a staple for me in high school. Cannot wait for album number three to be released, hopefully soon.

  72. A.... K....

    Thanks for Clone High.
