Devin Townsend - Planet Of The Apes Lyrics
I know who I am today
But who knows?
To forgive the lord... you don't damn family
All I ever wanted was to be true for my wife and my kid
And I will never back down, and I release the pain
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
And pay!
Oh the mind goes!
And I've had to reassess the ways of the mind
And I will never back down, for you are my children's family
Have I forgiven the pain?
Forgive yourself!
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
Pay! No?
Sorrow man
Sorrow man
Sorrow man
I know the ways to love and truth
(Tungsten body, glowing mind)
And I realize they're coming through
(Tungsten body, glowing mind)
I know the way to love and truth my god... stay with me!
Sorrow man
Sorrow man
Sorrow man
(While we all have lots of bands who influence still... we all rip off Meshuggah!)
Well was I aware that I was more uplifted by the enkindled smiling of the stars
So I cannot find myself worthy
Covered with scent vile they seem to be side by side, animals in a row
I never (get your money's worth)
Pay pay
I never know (get your money's worth)
Pay now
I do not agree existentially
I know father, I know father... I know... I know
I know father, I know father... I know... I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, all about the blood!
Yeah! I let go, I let go my prehistoric mensa!
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
I say have it your way
I stay heavy for my god
Worlds away, sun it glows
Hearts fade to grey, summer shows
Worlds away, sun it glows
Hearts fade to grey, summer shows
Way of ways, and in a way I'm heading towards the sky!
We never will die, we never know why
Just never look back now, and I'll be happy until!
Oh! Everybody will know, I am so happy now!
I've got a little boner!
Stay in line, in line we stay!
Stray from the norm and never be heard!
Always above, always alone!
Reaffirm:
This is the planet of the apes!
(Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus)
Show ourselves the beauty of our ways
Then maybe we would last
Hey!
Are we observing? Are we the observed?
Are we deserving... Or are we deserved?
If what we owe is all we know!
Then ever in the presence of events that change us all... And then are gone
If they know, what we may never know... Then let this be the lesson of our ways!
(Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus, Jihad. Jesus)
Please don't cry to me, 'cause what you believe is the cause of your own demise
You need to be free in money and the worlds between us! Your words, THEY SAY THIS!
Under the pleasant lines!
I'm sorry baby, I'm sworn to miles and miles of love
I'm sorry baby, I'm sworn to miles and miles of love
I'm sorry baby
Baby
Miles and miles of love!
One is all connected, tungsten body glowing mind!
One collective!
Wild desire!
All the world's been waiting for the news!
Save me your heart!
We must trust in ourselves my friends!
One is all connected! Tungsten body glowing mind!
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)
(One is all, collective)

8:19 8:25 those synchronous headbanging moments are so fkingggg epiccccc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3049cYUQFg This video does not run out of sound at 9:04
без наркоты как то не то уже...скучно сочиняет
this drummer stole the show. he is really impressive
Are you fucking kidding me, muting the track at the best part? Muting anything in general? What the absolute fuck??
I've seen him perform this song live, it is nothing short of beauty and technical wizardry! It's going to take the music world a long time to ever catch up with Devin.
9:20 RIP, fuck.
Did Devin pick up the 7 string from Vai?
3:41 best part of the song!
AUDIO GOES OUT AT 9:21 .... TOO BAD✞✞✞
why does the audio cut out at 9:21?
last 3 min no sound
DEVIN IS GOD
peak of the song goes mute. fuck yourself
Just the intro alone is hard to remember at first. The beats are so odd on that riff, try to sing with that riff and see if you can get it right 😂
I just realized ..Devin Townsend is Billy West.
Devin and his crew are freaking fantastic!
9:29....I could Loop that part forever
Those other singers look like some from the Ret Circus and the Royal Albert
Sound cuts out at 9:20 :(
What a fucking mess. There's some good in here somewhere but good luck hearing it.
arseymcpherson sounds like you just can't keep up. This music isn't for you buddy
where's the end sound?
9:20 ? .... RIP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3049cYUQFg Here this part is alive :D
What the fuck?
I'm so mad
Holy fuck.
The acoustic guitar sounds so beautiful.
What a beast of a song, man...
11.54 Never forget bliss !.
After hundreds of listens I've determined this song is an advertisement for Burger King. I say have it your way
Is it just me or is the unmasked Doof Warrior meant to look like Devin Townsend?
im completely satisfied with this live verson. with so many layers of backtrack and all. nice to have those background singers so he can cut out a bit and just jam. epic! cheerz. d
That Tommy puppet tho...
I'm sorry, baby...
"Meshuggah. Meshuggah, Meshuggah, Meshuggah..."
Meshuggah + Muse
+Rhyme Keenan Huh? OH MY GOD IT ACTUALLY SAYS "We all rip off Meshuggah!" DDx i dont know why i thought it said for some reason "my sugar" instead of "Meshuggah" lol
+unique Master just admit it, you just felt stupid after you realised he just meant the lyrics oO
He wants all the sugar in order to summon Saruman...
Meshuggah it's just rhythm without melody or harmonies ... this has more feeling, like death
Fucking. Epic.
Min 3:40, too epic!
...was that a Jens Kidman puppet?
No, Tommy Rogers from Between The Buried And Me :)
Devin looks like he could be a villain from a children's movie
Jay Lee
He can be Lex Luther.
@Jake Stern Lex Luthor but with more fart jokes
You got to realize that his songs have so many layers and harmonies that Frank Zappa is a big influence.
joweerocks yeah, he kinda came from that Zappa camp as well, being with Steve Vai and everything.
I really love the ending from 9:20... so epic!
Tim Heerema the INTENSITY that room must’ve felt from all of that bass!!!!!!! Would’ve been such a chilling moment to witness
holy shit
Caroline <3
Who is it
ALWAYS ABOVE
ALWAYS ALONE
lol very nice
One the coolest songs I ever heard in my entire life!
Oh everybody will know, I am so happy now! I've got a little boner!
virei fã desse cara todas suas musicas são perfeita
the coolest song by devin
I clicked on this to see how he would do the Tommy part for the DVD. was not disappointed
Speechless. Narcissism at it's finest.
So much meshuggah in this track!
Normally I would disagree but the lyrics literally say"While we all have lots of bands who influence still... we all rip off Meshuggah!"
That is what the OP was referencing you simple minded dumb fuck. Sad.
sooo...he is a tolkein fan. cool......."saruman!!!!!....Saruman!!!!"......blondie backing singer looked pretty yummy.
Bet devy slide over her way and breaks out with .....
" hi ya babe...wanna see my other bald head?"
It's supposed to be "SORROW MAN" but you're right that it does sound like "SARUMAN."
i know mate...im just being a dick...ive seen devy alot of times.
5:45 O_O
that opening riff gets me all the time...such a great song by a great artist!
so great to see Devin along with Dirk Verbeuren..we need more of this awesomeness \m/
Valdemort gets a bad rap for his evil wizardry. If people knew he was such a brilliant musician...
Hahaha.
10 points to you.
Same to Saruman. Tommy just keeps calling him.
Great Sound, great voice, great engineering. Great Ibanez (7), great Ziltoid, great Devin, great Anneke, great Vocals. And great drumming. :-)
I agree even though its a Peavy 7 string
Oh my god, the Tommy puppet. That is the best thing ever.
I lost my shit when I saw that...
WE ALL RIP OFF MESHUGGAH!!!
Who wouldn't the tone is GODLIKE
Meshuggah is the only Djent band ever.
coprofago is better
Voldemort was trying to look like Devin, that is why you're confused.
Open B, actually. F#-B-F#-B-F#-B-D#.
Drop G!
I did VIP for Devin this month and actually posted a video of the day! Devin is awesome bloke! :)
HEH, HEH HEH!
masterpiece !
They are amazing.
I would literally kill just to be able to see DTP in concert
hot damn, they sound so big but they are just in a small venue. awesome as always!
The back up singers kind of remind me of The Joker and Harley Quinn by, the way they are dressed and the colors.
I personally prefer RVP
He has to be, to follow Gene Hoglan /,,/
Mike young the bassist looks like the dude from always sunny in philidelphia lol
7:30 best part! Tommy Giles Rogers as a puppet! XD
Mind blowing !
amazing
God damn! That tone<3
That drummer is a fuckin' beast
yeah, very nice Voldemort! :D
Gotta love the puppet of Tommy from btbam haha
GTFOH!!!
original! I appreciate! thank you
Devin, how can I explain what I feel about your music... Not possible or yes... maybe like that... YOU'RE A GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy shit!
Song needs more minutes
Djevin Townsend.
I love how the Tommy Giles puppet pretty much replicates all the movements he makes while singing live
Just awesome!
7:29 fucking Tommy Rogers Puppet lol
The puppet show was fuggins wheat.
Just seen them at brixton academy, awesome gig.
there is alot of playback in this song unfortunately
Devin is such an enthralling performer, I can't say I've seen anybody like him before. On a side note at 8:00, are they making fun of BTBM?
Devin Townsend doing djent. The best thing I've ever seen.
WHOA!!!
I love this song and DTP so much but a lot of they decon lyrics and their cadence just haven't settled well with me and I get bothered by it when relistening =[ Still absolutely incredible what he achieved with this project and these performances.
genius!!!
Tommy Rogers' guest vox fit so perfectly.
The Between the Buried and Me singer did some vocals for this song on the album, and I presume he couldn't make the concert so they made the puppet video thing instead and played it when his part come up.
Wth is the puppet doing? Does this mean that Devin is the new furher?
and make it sound better then mp3
