Glassjaw - Two Tabs Of Mescaline Lyrics

the bass guitar @2:22 is dreamy

Feeding time that old friend of mine!

leper zoo

Mescaline can't be put on tabs

Greg McBride the good music cant be logic

I was thinking the same shit

Daryl was straight edge when he wrote this, we can give him a pass on that piece of trivia

the best way to finish an amazing album

this shit is unique, been trying to find bands that write simlar stuff, im diggin the eastern style guitar melodies with the heavy chours. any suggestions???

there's only one glassjaw

@skramz kid Closest band I can think of is Lower Definition which they are now defunct.

Obrigado!

Wtf this is the crappiest mp3 compression upload i've ever heard. Hit-hat and cymbals are literally dying

Buy the album???

The compression on this upload remains crap even after WaspCorp bought the album

@Mattius Ruck really worth it to buy the disc, too. The packaging is pretty brilliant.

didnt daryl used to be a straigh edge? this song and all good junkies go to heaven kinda confuses me in that sense

I think they had stopped being straight edge at this point. They were awesome when they were straight edge, but I think they got even better with drugs.

Well Daryl drinks a little now, and has to be on medication because of his Crohn's issues

K Q A A A A A D

have not seen mescaline since early 90s, what the hell happened to it?
And never heard of it in tabs, only tiny tiny pills (double barrel purple, red star and the ever - mysterious white that was actually a black pill). What a great time was had on mescaline.

+Gigi Bellia That was not mescaline. Mescaline isn't active at doses small enough to be in tiny pills. Sounds like you had LSD microdots. Whatever it was, it wasn't mescaline.

@Josh Miller Yeah I recall the term microdot referring to them also, your right.  Whatever it was, the high was about 7 hours and uncontrollable laughter.  Slight trailing, and pupil dilation (textures magnified).  Come down was pretty rough from what I remember.  Mostly sold by bikers, Im in NYC so I kinda figured it wasn't very natural

Definitely their best song !

thats a lot of wailing this guy does

Whoever put a thumbs down deserves to have Drano main-lined into their systems and when they're clinging to a thread of their miserable lives, rip the heart out and piss in the hole.  

i like the rip the heart out and piss in the hole part. that;s poetic. may i plagiarize?

+Mornin Mornz Your mom seemed a bit extreme but, hey, I was into it.

Thanks!

A bit extreme...but yes, those people should open their eyes & ears a bit.

Brian Graham too harsh maybe

I bought this CD many years ago and after about a year i lost it. Since then i have refused to buy it again because i was afraid i would get old of it. Through the years I've got my GJ fix through YouTube and other sources. One of my first YT playlists was GJ and this song was the first on it but never considered it to be my favorite on the album. Last week i finally broke down and bought all the CD's again and suddenly realize this is by far my favorite song (between this and Ry Ry's song) anyways, it's amazing the more i listen to this CD the more i appreciate it, the more my views change for each song. Rather than getting old each song just gets reinvented.

+Sadie Kitten I wish I could like this more than once!

I love you.

what does this dude know about mescaline? oh yeah.....nothing, shows in the music

Why does it matter? It's just a song title. It's also a good song. 

why would you bother posting something so irrelevant. What do you know about mescaline James Boyd?

@thembluetube I think he's talking to cage through this

@couldbeblue You didn't know? He's the mescaline MASTER! lololololol

Yeah, I listen to great music. Gave this a shot, turned out to be shit.

Artistically, it's profound. Listen to the music, how it complements and fluently mixes back in with those emotional screams.. If art is expression, and art is expressing yourself, there's so much more than just their sound in their songs. Powerful lyrics and poetic verses.. This band is worth more than just a second look. Try and find something you can connect with. You'll never forget it.

How can people say this is good?

how could you not say its good?

Well usually it kinda goes like this, it's good. However, I'll do you one better, it's fucking amazing!! GJ is a legendary band to a lot of us but I get that it's not for everyone. Then again what is?

Lol, I love portraits of past, and Ive heard that album a billion times, but what makes you think that portraits of past invented KQED and that GJ is referencing portraits of past? It's not adding up for me bro. Unless I've missed an interview or something.

This one is for you H. Charlie. see you on the next psychedelic trip on that transcendental plane of alternative existence. (|:)

it's a Portraits Of Past reference, KQED equals volvo.
watch?v=u_3woo8sMkQ

3:01 DAT BASS

haha whoops

I know the feeling dude! I know the feeling!!!! Great music lasts forever!

am i too old for this music?

i think not

TDWP formed 3 years after this album dropped. Shut the fuck up and get your fact straight.

I thought mescaline was a type of salad

They probably mean tablets and not blotter paper.

Mescaline doesn't even come on tabs. It doesn't work that way. The chemical itself is nowhere near potent enough to lay on blotter paper.

fuck off you drug addict

Pretty sure he's talking about hipster lumberjack shirts. It's not condescending when it's true.

Incubus and Glassjaw, both badass bands. Incomparable really so stfu.

glass jaw is for people that can't follow along with Incubus superior lyrics.

Carmelo Alejandro 4 years ago but still an L

If you said Coldplay's superior lyrics you might have taken the W but you didnt.

This shit sucks

StephenHish Gaming - mod lobby's + gaming tutorials and gameplays L

my turkish prison is knowing i fit in

hard to believe it has been over a decade and I still blast this in the car. awesome.

i did pick one.

i'd remove the plastic lenses from the ironically large glasses that you wear and replace them with some real ones... hipster..

you're eyes are failing you lololololol

was it filled with hipsters or guidos? pick a stereotype and stick to it if you're gonna be condescending.

Somebody doesn't know how to use wikipedia... or their brain

yeah dude, glassjaw has been around since 1993 man and the sound has not changed a whole lot

wow that dude can't be serious then..lol

who is tdwp?

You're ridiculous.. Do some research.

and the award for the stupidest comment on any youtube video goes TO...

Way back when I always skipped over this song. Now, I can't believe I ever did that. It's amazing

This band is ripping off tdwp soooooooooooo bad,,,, -_-

TWDP was formed in 2005 you moron. This album was released in 2002. I think its the other way around.

i never rly listened to this song, but their entire catalog is so impressive. the more i listen, the more intrigued i become

This song is powerful

wow... after all these years ive never actually sat and listened to the sound fx following the song! just discovered them by accident after opening a new tab letting the song finish

QUE SERA!!

i remember the first time i heard this song was in the DMV area, i forget which venue. recher, 930? i forget... anyhow... it was their closer. daryl was like "this song is about nothing. its called two tabs of mescaline." now that i think of it it was recher theater in baltimore. god dammit i love gj

depends on his mood. he was nearly naked one time i saw gj

fuck you too, sir!

Fuck you, In my opinion.

You're also 21, live in Canada, and liked a sisters of mercy music video. Your opinion in invalid.

Way stupid band in my opinion.

SAILOOOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! D :<<<<<

you're my hero.

Please dont tell me im the only one who hears the creppy shit at 7:48?

yes i do know, most people just call them caps and tabs as in sheets

tab(lets) could be anything.....

ever heard of gelatin capsules?

hey NEXUSgrave theres a little red smuge are your like bar.

the title fuckface, it doesn't make sense

I'll tel you when you're older.

What the fuck are you talking about?

>2 tabs
>mescaline
putting mescaline onto tabs would be useless as its active in 50mg+, tabs hold micrograms.. well depends if you want to try swallow an a4 sheet or not

lol damn hipsters!

I really don't feel like researching and reading at the moment I guess, I'll just stick to a safer drug like POT
>=)

May seem like an idiot question but save the bullshit,

"What is mescaline?"

mmm Mescaline :)

Needs more of the intro. I love chill guitar parts

Does mescaline even come in tabs?

@TheBoomstickhero Normally I would say, no mate, buy it, its an excellent album however GJ have made it clear they hate Warner Brothers so buy anything they release themselves ha ha

its cool be cool girl

@j0bzz
Just torrent the thing, why would you settle for youtube quality, when you could get the whole album and at a better quality?

@antsandlions some of the last real music left on earth....

If i could have sex with music, i would fucks Glassjaw's music all day long..they've been fucking my ears for years...and its that good sex...haha

one of my favorite songs from this album =)

i grew up with these sounds in my sophomore year of 2001, much love and respect.

@TheImaginaryBeing Your comment made me happy. Glad to know theres some decent people who still like Post-Hardcore.

@TheImaginaryBeing That's just rediculous. I would be fuckin' pissed. Those damn hipsters...... If I were there I would have went ape shit with you. This is one of my favorite bands ever. Plus, they're very talented musicians. They deserve a real show whenever they play, not just from time to time. =(
